Indiglo Gauges - an alternative
Thanks Richard, I hope I didn't appear to be disrepectful to yourself or your company, it's just with the amount of scams around recently you can never be too sure. I know dangerous from the aus300zx.com club, so that's good enough for me :D. You have a blanking plate for the boostgauge in the first picture you sent at the start of this thread. Is that included in then set ?

stay well clear!!!
I can't say I agree with the naming and shaming on a public forum. I think it would just cause confusion. I mean sometimes an excellent company can do 100 good jobs and then have a bad day and do 1 bad job. If we had this naming and shaming, only 10% of the good jobs would get mentioned, but you can bet that the 1 bad job would get more attention. Before I use a company for any work on my Z, I ask people on this forum for their views.

Oh and I got a job today!
Excellent news Eric, congrats on the new job and top blokefor following another poorly zed home :D

Hi, I love the dials and I am very interested however. I don't sound rude, but you have only just come on this forum under the name "Auto Illusions" having never posted on here before. You want a £45 pound deposit from each of us before we even see any of the finished product dials. You need 25 people to go ahead with this order that £1125 in your pocket without having to give us anything back. Call me a sceptic, but can we really trust you ?. Can you somehow prove who you are ?, I know this would make me more comfortable. Sorry if this seems a little untrusting, but it's better safe than sorry.

FAO: Fat Tony
my understanding is that if the police donot pull you over there and then, or tell you to wait while thye get the other driver, then thye have to provide you with photoraphic eveidence that you were speeding, including your licence plate. But Eric, you weren't racing or speeding now were you ???. It was all a dream, wasn't it ????. Becuasethe only place you speed is on a private track, isn't it ?? :D:D. you'll be ok mate :D

Plug comparison
Beacuse I have only just changed my plugs about 2,000 miles ago and have 58k left until the next plug change. I would prefer to have the money to spend on body kit :D :D No these are good en's mate, I think the £2 plugs are getting mullered here. :D Ask around ;)

I would suggest taking off the air con fan so that you can get to the back 12mm bolts on the old recircs, but that's all you need to do.

Tony, Yes Goose honk is now toatally gone. When driving softly ie.e not hard acceleration, I gess a nice gentle shsh sound, very hard to hear even with all the windows open. However when I give it large I get an almight TSHSHSHSHSHSHSH which sounds like someone has just smashed the top off of a fire extinguisher :D. I love it. britonnc, It really was a piece of peese to fit them. see my site for instructions on how to fit. Adam, YEah the JAp instructions were a little cack. I did want to get the bit about, how the screw on top works translated. Funny thing is I did actually take the front bumper off, but that was because I had a head light to replace and I also wanted to clean all the lights and mesh the front grill. It still would have beena piece of peese to fit them with the bumper on :D.

Strut Bars
The Z has not recovered yet. Found a local garage who has a cylinder leakage tester so I'll be taking it to them. I didn't realise but the guy has done a fair bit of work on 300zx's, inluding a green one in the Ilford area. This ring any bells ?

Plug comparison
Nigel , The best place tobuy the plugs are courtesy Nissan in Texas. 6 plugs wth shipping and tax will cost you just over £60. Here the plugs retail form nissan at about £70 - £80. I have a set of 11B's that I have never used. Bought them as spares. Still boxed and sealed. £50 if anyone wanted them, free delivery.

Well I fitted my HKS's in place of the recircs. I bought them to get rid of the goose honk. To be honest I can notice a quicker Turbo response when giving it some larger, but I can not notice any difference through normal to hard driving.

Tony, you will need to cut two small slits into the rear mouldings. i.e. the ones that cover the shocks. It's not hard to do and you can tidy up the edges with a rubber grommet after you cut the holes. Haven't fitted them myself but seen a few Z's with them on in the states. If you want to get them but are not confident about cutting the panels, bring them to me and I'll fit them for you.
