advice needed
If interested in this Z & in bugget there are things you can check before you buy or make an offer. Is the car near you & is it local? Check the garage the repair work was carried out & bills ect, like wheel align'ment, respray, parts. How long the guy owned it. Past service history ect with bills. Recent parts changed, last oil change. Make a tick list of questions to ask, if the guy answers them ok then check the docs out then test drive for an hour! OMG! does this sound crap or wat? I hope this gives U ideas. And take someone who nows Zs too! Not ment too sound like u had not thought about any of this! Arthur. good hunting!

Heater Matrix Hoses
Anyone know the part Nos for the two heater matrix hoses at the back of the engine? I only need the one that comes out of the bulkhead lowest! It seems to have been cut by the jubilee clip as the hose enters the back of the engine. Or what do I ask for! as the two of them are sods to change they are £14.50 each but I dont need both! Can any one help if this makes sense?

Sorry to hear about your Z! Could you not get a half engine recon? Or low milage half engine? Some of the forum members say you can pick them up for £400-£600. Only a suggestion. Good luck Arthur

Starter motor
Hi Colin You could give Andy Z a ring first to see if he has one. Find his No in the traders forum. Just one idea. Arthur.

headlights
Hi You could do a search on the forum. Or you could try PIAA bulbs I tried changing bulbs, no change! These PIAA bulbs H3 give 85w of light off 55w If you change to 100w bulbs I am lead to believe they blow, because in the headlight space they over heat & blow. The PIAAs cost £30.60 + VAT + P&P total around £40 for pair. They do make a difference! You need H3 Platnum White part no HE271/ECB1 but check first. They have own webb site, but have to buy via a dealers Hope this is of use. Arthur.
