  1. Problem solved. Managed to get to the motor via the speaker hole with the panel half off. It seems likt the window somehow caught a wire and pulled it form the motor. Rewired it and all is fine. Thanks
  2. ok mate give me a ring and we'll sort out a time.
  3. LOL try the spark plug section of this forum :D
  4. No offense taken Jeff, don't worry about that. I know what you are saying though, I guess it's a common mistake, but unfortunatley it's one that I checked first of all. I know we replaced the speaker in the passenger door recently and I think it's stopped working a little after that, so I think it's pulled awire somewhere. Thanks
  5. Haven't checked the switches for live feeds yet but I'll check the wires with a multimeter tomorrow. The probelm with the door car is that it is held in by two bolts under the door pillar trim so unless this bit comes off I can't take the panel off, however I may be able to unclips the bottom and remove the speaker cover from inside. Thanks P.S. If you are still after a set of locks I have a complete set for sale (i.e. both doors, including handles (perl white), boot, ignition barrel and glove box, comes with 1 key that fits all. it's a bit of an unusual key so you may want to get another cut. I upgraded to a set of locks with a titaniam key. I think the going rate is about £70 - £80, but if you want them £50 and they are yours, I'll even help you fit them. Should only take about an hour all in.
  6. I don't think there is a fuse per windows but I'll check.

    Not sure mate, it's a little far away for me !!!!
  8. Smoked 20 a day since I was 19, gave up a year and a half ago. Not had a single puff since. Hard work and I still fancy one one and again, but it's so much easier to resist now. I tried Patches, Gum & inhaler but they all worked until you stop using them becuas eyou feel "fine" then before you know it you're smoking again. cold Turkey is the best way, put your body through some serious withdrawal. For the first two weeks I lay away at night feeling really fustrated and was breaking out in cold sweats. Feel great now, starting to shift the 2 stone I put on after quitting as well.
  9. Yeah, cheers for that Paul, I knew I could count on someone of your mechanical expertise :D
  10. SMW2's passenger window seems to have stopped working, I have check the switch is plugged in ok and all seems fine. The problem I have is that I want to take the panel off to check the wiring. but if I can't wind the window down to take the door pillar off, how am I supposed to get it off ???
  11. looks good Tony. The missus got some of these off of Ebay for her car. Did you use a tech article somewhere for fitting instructions or the ones that came with it ?
  12. Erm someone has knicked one of your other TB pipes, the oil cap and the rad cap mate ? It looks proper bo I tell thee. Have you got a different plenum cover for it ?

  16. Greg Macaulay, one of the most active, knowlegable, friendly, and generous Z car enthusiast's in a canadian Z club had a heart attack yesterday. He is in the hospital until Fri or Sat when he is expected to go home and fully recover. Greg is the owner of a perfect red 240 that he did a frame-off on. Greg is pretty well known around the older Z and Datsun 510 realm as an expert and go to guy in the pacific northwest. He lives in Victoria BC and is the anchor man in the Vancouver Island Datsun Enthusiast Club. Anyway his email address is . I think it would be really cool if when he boots up his computer and checks his mail there were a hundred get well messages from fellow Zers from all around the world. Please send him a quick note, let him know that people have heard about him and his car and that we wish him a speedy recovery, would be good to mention that you are in the UK also! Thanks
  17. look above /\/\/\/\/\/\

    I guess you are just making sure your name is on the lake list LOL. Can we have an update on the lake list Macca ? especially now you have seen PaulC's MSN status LMAO !!!
  22. LOL, cool I kinda new that anyway but it was the only way I could get away with shoing you my sprayed up amps in the help and advice forum :D :D. And sorry to say guys that the picture was take in my workshop hence the old kitchen work surface, dodgy cabinets and muddy boots :D I like to call it my workshop anyway, the missus calls it a conservatory :D :D
  23. Can I use Lacquer on an amplifier ? I know these things get hot but I'm not sure if I laqcuer it will it blister or peel ? these were my amps before I painted them Then I painted them with Radiator paint good for up to 200 degres C. I would like them to shine a bit more and also hold the 300zx sticker in place as it's meant for a window although it is holding well. Any thoughts ?
  24. Is that you on the left mate with Macca ?
  25. 10 miles :o . I drove 260 miles each way to give Macca some injector connectors. that fact that I droipped my car off at PPS at the same time is neither here nor there :D.
