  1. Doesn't sound like the heater matrix-you do get heat, it just leaks coolant all over the footwells! I would get back on to the people who did your service, run it past them and see how you go. Good luck.
  2. Yeah-think that is a Romford number, so I guess they're in Romford!! Its just a ZX breakers, but Ken is a really helpful guy. It says on his business card- "The ZX Enthusiasts Centre Dismantling all models 1979 to infinity" He's hepled me out before and just went that extra mile you know, to help me out. Take it easy.
  3. oh well, back to the Kia! go to the trading area and then to PRICE CHECKS -there is a post there all about good ins. co.'s etc. good luck.
  4. hiya dude. try Ken at ZXS he's sorted me out before. Maybe that's who you mean, I know he's something to do with, or knows Mike at MJP. ZXS 01708 680695 / 07751 149211.
  5. who would WANT to steal it though!? ha ha, number is 0121 622 6006 Insurance Factory. Ask for Scott. Mine is G reg Import TT, let me know how you get on. Wonder how much more in view of your points and ban. Points don't make prizes you know!
  6. alright dude. shame about that 2nd car! how old's the Z? got a great deal just yesterday, but Z's gotta be ten years or over old! £497.00 I was impressed with that, thats on classic car ins which leaves your NCB free for another car! let me know if u want their number. James.
  7. 180mph not fast?????? don't tell the old bill will you?
  8. Just a quickie-are people's nuts (oo-er) 19mm or 21mm and closed or open ended? I'm having a row with Courtesy at the mo about some nuts they've sent me! Thanx alot. This will help me eat humble pie or carry on complaining to Courtesy NEESARN! have you heard how they say it when you ring? its hilarious. Whether my nuts are right or wrong they got to me bloody quick, ordered them wed 2.30pm, to my door friday morning!! I couldn't believe it!
  9. I have to fit longer wheel studs to the front of my Z, due to bigger discs with bell and 18" wheels, currently only get 3-4 turns with the nuts which not happy with. Managed to get some from Nismo ($8 ea) but question is do originals just bang out or need to be pressed out? And I presume will have to take off that shitty dust gaurd thing-that will not be going back as I reckon without it might aid the cooling, a little. Any advice will be gratefully received. Cheers guys. James.
  10. My £20 membership is on its way to Craig before you think I'm cheeky for advertising on this bit of the forum! Anyway, nothing too exciting for sale, just a PTU for £100. Oh, and if anyone running 18's needs a part worn, I have an excellent nick Michelin Pilot Sport 275/35/18 £60. (check out Kwik-fit price of £362!) Take it easy. James.

    this is def a Z31!!!!!!
  12. just a quick note about Courtesy Nissan...... needed some new wheels nuts, £10.00 EACH from UK!!!!!!!!! $1.50 from Courtesy, can you believe it????? Anyway, ordered them wednesday-got them this morning! How good is that?
  13. Hmmmm, there is a strip that runs down the side of the WINDSCREEN that goes crappy! yo don't mean that do you? I know it sounds a bodge but a neatly cut piece of black insulating tape does the trick there! ..........RED?? nah.
  14. are you mad? the rubber is the ONLY thing stopping it from letting in rain etc! mine is in really good nick and still leaks a little when hosing it down after I've washed it! as for silver...... without a doubt the best colour!!!!! take it easy. :cool:
  15. Hiya Dan. I wouldn't remove it mate or it'll leak like no-one's business. Give Luke a buzz at Z Centre (01159 676356) pretty sure he'll be able to get some or personally I'd go to Courtesy Nissan.
  16. sorry that site is http://www.300zx.org.uk
  17. Hiya Stu. I didn't actually end up replacing the oil pressure (valve, thingy?) with regards to it getting clogged again in 6 months or so. I must admit it worries me a little that if I had a genuine oil pressure problem that I wouldn't recognise it. I'd say speak to Luke at The Z Centre (01159 676356) there is nothing he doesn't know and is really helpful. Anither site is http://www.z32org.com or co.uk that has everything with photo's and step by step guide. Good luck. James. :D (give me a bell if u want 07740 197795)
  18. Oh, as for the boiling noise, I hear that on mine and its just the coolant having a little bubble about, seeing that it gets so hot. Mine has been like this for as long as I can remember and in and out of SE in the mean time. Its running as good as ever! 170 mph just the other day! (on my own private track of course!)
  19. 99 times out of a hundred it is the oil pressure sensor clogged up and nothing to worry about. Replace it and 6 months later it will be clogged again! Mine reads about 8 on start up but can drop down to about 2 or so!

    hey..... Was thinking about venting the bonnet on mine to try and reduce the under-bonnet temperature, prob too late as every electrical connection is as brittle as fcuk! You say yours has worked well, what kind did u go for? "cool louvers" cut them into the bonnet, then you've got the central scoop type, I reckon Cossie stlye one's would look good. Which did you go for? cheers, James.
  21. 51x......... hiya mate. I'm sure yours are fine then, SE would've certainly said something eh? I've only got a problem with mine as they have a big bell on the wheel side of the disc. Didn't mean to worry you! Hope you get yours back on the road soon!:D
  22. hey guys (and girls?) I'm converting my AUTO to a MANUAL. Anyone breaking a manual? Need the box obviously, pedals, prop, 3 piece clutch & flywheel, stick & surround. Oh, the servo to the clutch aswell. Anyone know of this stuff going anywhere? (from a TT 2+2) Cheers, any help would be appreciated. James.
  23. message for 51x........ just got some 18 Khan's same as yours on my car. With your bigger brakes, have you enough stud poking through for the wheel nuts? I also have a set of chunky discs on the front with a bell on them, consequently only get about 4 turns on the wheel nut! Bit sketchy I reckon so got 10 longer bolts from Nismo through Courtesy Nissan, $8 each. Anyway, are yours ok?
  24. MONGOOSE exhaust????????? (groan) get THAT from Max Power? cheeky git-got a sh*t exhaust like that and say get a Nova!:confused:
  25. yeah-very nice price too from SE. Must admit though, would prefer not as much drop at the front as the back-that would even it up nicely! My experience of SE has been very bad -so will prob give them a miss! On a more positive note, Luke at the Z Centre has helped me out with every single problem I've had! Cheers though, take it easy.
