Painted calipers
I painted my calipers several years back with hammerite and a brush. I want to remove my calipers this weekend and remove all old paint and then re paint them properly. The old paint does chip off with a screwdriver but don't want to subject my calipers to a hammer and screwdriver just to remove paint, is there a better way? Such as using a heat gun? Or having them sandblasted? Don't want to damage the seals in there though... Thanks, Dan

Plumbing my intercooler?
My fmic is now on the car. The next job is to plumb it in. Seems as though to donut bin silicone parts it's going to cost about £100. Before I commit, is there anyone that does hard pipe kits for the four outlet fmic ? Thanks, Dan

I'm Confused about intercoolers...
Thanks, I always thought the air was already in the system kind of like water in a radiator as opposed to being totally open.

I'm Confused about intercoolers...
So my fmic has just arrived but am baffled as to how they work upon inspecting it. I can see straight through the vents?? I was expecting it to be a sealed radiator type unit?? Thanks

horns connections?
I want to replace my horns on my Z, they are all rusty and sound like they have water in them. Anyway, I want something similar to the ones below but all seem to have two connections whereas the standard Z has just one. Is it just a case of wiring the second pin straight to earth? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12V-SNAIL-AIR-HORN-SET-FOR-CARS-TRUCKS-VANS-DUAL-TONE-EASY-TO-FIT-/390666654547?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5af58c1353 Thanks, Dan

Importing wheels through customs
It's the only way, the official dealer of this wheel only imports 15" & 16" inch. They are not interested in helping me with 18" at realistic prices.

Anyone fitted one of these intercoolers?
I can source rubber tubing quite easily, I would class it as in upgrade as it has a larger volume than the two standards??
