  1. Didnt work mate. The passenger side locks with the key albeit a bit stiff but the drivers side isnt having it at all. When you put the key in it goes from the 12oclock poition all the way round to 7ish to the left and 5ish to the right... Much further then it should and there is no catching or connecting at all. The yellow thing was replaced before so i dont think its that. I dont actually know what this yellow thing is but have been told the above :)
  2. :D Give me 2mins to get dressed and try it.........
  3. As above. Is there anyone pretty close to me (dont mind travelling too far mind) who can fix my central locking? It doesnt work with the key on the drivers side. When you put the key in it turns 180degrees to the left and hardly at all to the right. Decent beer tokens as i have a car on my drive that i cant lock so need to fix it asap. Ps: Dont bother asking for my address to come hear and fix it tonight :rofl: :rofl:
  4. One last bit of info... If i was you unless you find an amazing car elsewhere... Buy one of here as you can see its info, you will have the history pretty much on this forum and there will be a load of people who will know the car so you will allways have everything you need to know right here. Oh and subscibe here as it opens up a whole new world, Proberbably the best £20 you could spend :) http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?p=829848#post829848 You could build your car out of the bits here and it has the gearbox :)
  5. :rofl: Thats a hard one for me to answer mate as i love the look of that car and have posted up about it before. Would need going over but "seems" ok as long as the paperwork is kosher. But as you said above... would you be 100% happy spending your whole budget on it not knowing for sure what the engine condition is in and leaving you without a penny? In short that car is black, with black tinted windows and black wheels. They aint hard/exspensive mods to do yourself. If you could find a black car the rest would be easy. Ive pestered nearly everyone on the forum for advice about what car i should buy and what i should do but ive found that at the end of the day.... Its your car, it will be on your drive and you will be paying for it so a large portion of it is down to you mate. Hope that hasnt confused you even more :)
  6. If the shell is fine then i think your answering your own question mate. It has to be spend the 5k on it. 4k on the engine and any other bits that need doing and keep the 1k for emergencys for when something goes wrong. Give the traders a call and speak about want you want from the car then they can give you advice on how much and so on. Or spend the 5k on turning the car black and it will just look amazing and sod whether the gears engage :D
  7. Dave posted up about that bloke mate.... http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=87826 Would have been a nice coat otherwise allthough
  8. http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=88260 Further to martins response... Try legrath, I dont know if he still has the auto box but I know he is breaking 2 cars at the moment and is a top bloke so worth a shout. AndyZ also has loads of parts and is another top bloke. Check all the breaking cars in the for parts for sale section mate. HTH
  9. :rofl: :rofl: ^^^^^^^^^^ What he said :) Vijay..... you got any updates yet mate? Colour started to go on yet?
  10. Its the police telling you to slow down!!! ;) Its a speed related bong i think and can be removed with the restrictor but im an idiot and may be completley wrong. HTH see here :) http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=76805&highlight=speed+bong
  11. Just gave him a buzz and he is unsure what he wants for it as he wants to replace it with a Black SWB first ideally before he lets this one go. Best to give him a call, hes a sound bloke :)
  12. Allright mike :) This is a looker more then a engine modding car to be honest. I dont know what the costs are for rebuilding engines so dont know whether it works out cheap or not to be honest. I was going to spend money on it but hadnt planned on the engine as it was meant to have been rebuilt by nissan and it has a bill for just one occasion for £4400 :(
  13. :rofl: :rofl: It was done by nissan so who knows :) They managed to put the turbo pressure pipes on the wrong way round.
  14. Says you cant receive Pms Lack so give me your email addy fella.
  15. The missis works down near there, we get our car valeted on brickhill drive. I didnt buy it as i was going down a different route mate, Yellow isnt my thing allthough i was VERY VERY tempted. Best thing to do mate is give him a call, He is on here... OZ-ZX i think, He is in London so not too far, You would be down the A1 im guessing where as im down the M1 Ill pm you his number.
  16. Would you say they were anything to worry about mate?
  17. Thats heading out towards newport isnt it? A6ish? I had to chance to buy your car about 3weeks ago, still got the blokes number if your tempted :)
  18. I know that Aston dealers :cry: I have to drive down there for work past them all lined up outside staring at me!! Where in beds are you mate? Im in marston moretaine.
  19. Again im not sure mate. I just got sent these numbers and was asked to put them up here. Ill try and find out.
  20. I didnt do the test so im not a 100% sure but im guessing its hot as it was driven to where the test was which is about a 25-30 drive away.
  21. I cant help you with this question mate but have just remembered i havent sent you that CD :( Im really sorry, untill now i had completly forgot mate.... Sorry! Ill get it sent out to you, How is she going? Has the missis taken her over yet as your post seems to say......... "If ""I"" take the car anywhere else" :)
  22. Are these anything to worry about? The 130 is a little low isnt it? no1, 160 no2, 140 no3, 150 no4, 130 no5, 140 no6, 130 Cheers
  23. Im staring down the barrel of 2 new rears at the best part of £700!! At least my wallet will be undersized more then your rear tyres :rofl: :rofl: Might just sod them off and go for the MG Metro style. Wrapped for £15!! Cheers for the help lads :D
