Phil D

Big questions are being asked about the way he was handled straight after the accident....Can't say anymore here bec I don't wanna speak out of turn, but if you check the bike press this week, I am sure it will enlighten you all. He will be sadly missed, mainly due to the fact he need not have been missed... Phil.

Apologies if this has already been posted, but I cam across this the other day....walk this way

Eric, Not wishing to profit from your misery but....very interested...! Drop me a line. Phil

Nij, You have mail. Phil.

Thanks for the input guys, but I was visited by the beer fairies last night and they releived be of some cash and left me pondering my point on this Earth. With the clarity that only comes with a hangover, I have been convinced to buy my other half the MR2 she wants instead of replacing my Z. Ah well, will have to wait a while now....Once again, thanks for the help. Phil.

These can still be obtained form Nissan. £10 each IIRC, Part number is KEY00000095 or somtehing like that.

BTT

Does anyone feel brave enough to offer a mechanical opnion on a prospective Z purchase ??? The car in question is based in Yeovil. All expenses will be reimbursed...! Please mail/msg me if you are interested. Thanks, Phil.

AndyP - Place local to me (Kent) does them on a 24hr turnaround. Quite reasonable too. Send me a mail if you want details. Phil.

Gio - YGM.

Kevin Philips Bong - Slightly Silly Candidate who split the Silly vote. Can't remember where the election was, but the Silly candidate was in a slab of concrete....

http://www.tv4.se/lattjo/kojan/bilbanan.asp Worth a look, I've wasted at least two hours on it today.... ------------------

Anyone attempted this ??? Comments ?

I am about to throw more money down the drain and upgrade to a TT. Therefore, my NA is up for grabs at a (IMHO) ridiculous price. It is a 1991 Metallic Grey, stock NA with 75k on the clock. The 112 Mph limit has just been lifted, and the cambelt has just been replaced. Regularly service by Nelson since its import. Please do get in touch for the price and help me do the right thing....;-)

AndyP - I am in Kent so Essex is not a problem at all. Could you please drop me a line ASAP and let me know what renumeration you require and if I should bring my own lubricant for it !!!

Seeing as I am at the bottom of the food chain (NA owner), I was avoiding an ECU upgrade as I would not get much benefit from it and I am trying to keep the car as standard as poss. I was told that if I chnaged the ECU I would have to change the speedo too ? Also, I don't want to be rebuilding it every 100 miles...Every 200 is acceptable within the Zedworld.

John - this sounds good. How does one go about it ?? Ta.

What is the best way to remove this ? KPH/MPH convertor bow or shipping and new speedo ??? Or any other method ? Thanks Phil

Ironically enough, that is where the one's I am talking about are from. It does seem a tad expensive, but they do say that by the time you've inserted the news bushes into the rods, you've covered the cost of new ones (due to the labour involved). I don't want to start an argument about Se, bec. I am not mechincailly inclined anough to do the job myself. Therefore, I am willing to get a pro to do the job and happy to pay for it. I was just getting some info first. Ta.

www.scan.co.uk - should have what you want.

Danny - Thanks for the info, but Jeff and I are not talking at the mo. I won't go into details as a lady reveals nothing... ;-)

Stuart - does this mean that the whole tension rods do not need replacing, just the bushes? I got a quote of £229 plus fitting which must mean they want to replace the whole thing....

Does anyone know if the above different from UK/JAP and Turbo/Non-turbo ? Mine are leaking sillicon and I am weighing up the pros and cons of replacing with new or secondhand. Cheers, as always.

AndyZ - YHM.

Darren- I am in Kent too. Used to take it to Ancasters, but they are no longer Nissan. Am currently schlepping to Maldon in Essex, but I have heard that the Canterbury Nissan is OK. They've had quite a few thru their doors, but I have not heard an independant reports. Anyone else ???
