Have a word with Jeff about discs and pads, or take a look at 3g brakes. If you want bigger discs or 6 pot calipers.......make sure you're sitting down when you get the price! Those buggers aint cheap!

How about mods to brakes? Its easy to get caught up in spending money on making the Z go faster........but how about makng it stop better? (but defo after induction kit!)

I don't really think it warrants its own section tbh. (refering to Nelson's post) As SMW1 said, just ask about if you're about to use a company you haven't used before. You will get feedback that way and then make your own mind up.

An "excellent" company would surely make good any "bad job" they had done. And if they didn't then I wouldn't risk using them, no matter how good the other 99 jobs were! Naming and shaming would be tricky as people rarely stick to the facts though! And if you were p1ssed off with a certain company, it would be easy and tempting to exagerate any foul play. I'm personally grateful that Fred posted this info. Does that go into 3p's worth?

Nice one Big Mac. :D

I really am trying, but don't know what you mean! ....../sdoh (oh, doesn't work here!)

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I've only 4 or so in my PM inbox! Its the "192 total messages in all your folders" bit I don't really get.........but obviously need to delete! (I knew someone was going to say that.......and Mac, you didn't dissappoint me!) LOL :D

"james300 - You have 0 new message(s) since your last visit. (You have 0 unread messages and 192 total messages in all your folders.)" 192 messages? I need to delete these as PM's aren't getting through...........how? Cheers.

Oh yeah, no door handle, thats a nice touch and one I had planned for mine! Looks good.

Blue calipers look good ! Just painted mine red......doh.

Headlight washers?

Cully Z its in your shed. :D

You can get that "back to black" stuff from Halfords etc, that gives a temporary erm.......back to black to trim etc.

Let us know what you've done and how you get on......at the very least you will start to learn more about your engine. Not that that seems like much consolation at the moment I guess. Good luck. Just one more bit of advice, when disconnecting the coil packs, be as gentle as possible as over time and due to under bonnet temp-they will be very brittle...well, that goes for ALL connections really! You will soon discover what I mean. Are you going to get plugs? I get mine from Courtesy, have you discovered them yet? Or I know Stu (SMW1) is selling a set.

On my privately owned test track I had 160 and ran out of space/clear road. It was still pulling pretty well. My mods are boost upgrade, Blitz induction and cats out full stainless exhaust....(oh and its an auto) :D

Also check all connections on the coil packs are secure. How old are plugs? No 'hissing' like air leak anywhere?

Ho ho ho........these made me chuckle......... I met a Dutch girl with inflatable shoes last week, phoned her up to arrange a date but unfortunately she'd popped her clogs. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly; but when they lit a fire in the craft, it sank, proving once and for all that you can't have your kayak and heat it. So I said "Do you want a game of Darts?", he said "OK then", I said "Nearest to bull starts". He said "Baa", I said "Moo", he said "You're closest". You see I'm against hunting, in fact I'm a hunt saboteur. I go out the night before and shoot the fox. The other day I sent my girlfriend a huge pile of snow. I rang her up, I said "Did you get my drift?". So I went down the local supermarket, I said "I want to make a complaint, this vinegar's got lumps in it", he said "Those are pickled onions". I saw this bloke chatting up a cheetah, I thought "he's trying to pull a fast one". So I said to this train driver "I want to go to Paris". He said "Eurostar?". I said "I've been on telly but I'm no Dean Martin". So I said to the Gym instructor "Can you teach me to do the splits?". He said "How flexible are you?". I said "I can't make Tuesdays". But I'll tell you what I love doing more than anything: trying to pack myself in a small suitcase. I can hardly contain myself. You see my next door neighbour worships exhaust pipes, he's a catholic converter. So I rang up British Telecom, I said "I want to report a nuisance caller", he said "Not you again". So I was having dinner with Garry Kasporov (world chess champion) and there was a check tablecloth. It took him two hours to pass me the salt. (my favourite!) He said "You remind me of a pepper-pot", I said "I'll take that as a condiment". Now did you know all male tennis players are witches, for example Goran, even he's a witch. A jump-lead walks into a bar. The barman says "I'll serve you, but don't start anything" A sandwich walks into a bar. The barman says "Sorry we don't serve food in here" A man walks into a bar with a roll of tarmac under his arm and says: "Pint please, and one for the road." A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse. "But why?" they asked, as they moved off. "Because," he said "I can't stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer." There was a man who entered a local paper's pun contest. He sent in ten different puns, in the hope that at least one of the puns would win. Unfortunately, no pun in ten did. A woman has twins, and gives them up for adoption. One of them goes to a family in Egypt and is named "Amal." The other goes to a family in Spain, they name him Juan". Years later, Juan sends a picture of himself to his mum. Upon receiving the picture, she tells her husband that she wished she also had a picture of Amal. Her husband responds, "But they are twins. If you've seen Juan, you've seen Amal."

I think you mised that 30 or so posts ago.

I'm more 'into' brunettes tbh. :D

And that motor is quite heavy! Think of that mass reduction. Boot pops up easier now aswell.

These guys are in Derbyshire...... http://www.qualityimports.co.uk/Nissan%20300ZX.htm Well, you did say 'anything'. Might be worth a look if you are close by?

I did take my rear wiper off for real yesterday, always thought it was ugly.........ok so I won't be able to see out of the back when it rains but it really does tidy up the back end, improves the lines alot. A 30mm grommet plugs up the hole for now. If I had a digital camera I would take a picture.......but I haven't.......so I can't. :( but I really like it without.

Ok, will check it works today. But you've done what SRRAE has suggested?

Thats an awful lot of letters in your user name Nelson.......you sure about all that 'letter mass' ? :D

Urghh, yuk, Supra lights?
