budget tyres
On any car the front tyres ARE the most important tyres.im not saying neglect the rears but its much easier to control a rear end break away than front end understeer.You always keep your best tyres on the steered axle.I know staggered fitments and 4wd vehicles dont always allow this but this is the rule.

HICAS not entering diagnostic mode
No mate,the ecu uses it to ascertain when you are pulling away so it can start to advance engine timing.

was some one looking for 350Z & Infiniti G 6-Speed Trans Adaptor for 300ZX (Z32)
Turbocharged zeds have wide torque ranges thats why only 5 gears are needed.6 speeds are more suited to modern turbo diesels and n/a petrol cars to keep them on the power.Imho it just isnt suited to a 6 speed box and it will only detract from its driving pleasure.3rd and 4th are so tall gears it just aint necessary.An extra gear would just be a pita after a while.They will do 185mph using the 5 speed so i just dont see how a 6 speed box from a slower non turbo car is an enhancement ?

I dont think personally a zed32 needs 6 gears.The ratios are long anyway so 6 gears would be pointless.Youll get sick of gearchanging.

HICAS not entering diagnostic mode
It could be Nick that your neutral switch doesnt register so therefore the ecu cant detect it when trying to enter diagnostic mode.

Targa pipe tech .... again
Good thread Jeff a great fix for a problem that would really be a pain,water leaks are awful.Takes me back to my old ford damp carpet days :yes:,is it easy to puncture the drain tube when fitting those pods,it seems that cars that have those always drip water in when it rains.Ive never fitted a set but have noticed they screw to the A pillar where that tube runs.

Getting the TT engine ready
Ditch the stainless manifolds because they will crack in time.Get some Ams or Mike Smith cast manifolds.

A very sad day has come
like i said ages ago,you should have just fixed yours,all this messing about,you could have honed the first engine and put new pistons or rings in it,at least you would have known it was good then.It would not have cost you that much and saved all this aggro :pinch:

How do I adjust my doors (up & down)
The hinge is bolted and can be adjusted.the bolts are the wing side of the hinge.Try lifting the door with it open,i used to do that on old fords and it always worked.
