Always nice to get a quick response, cheers guys!

Does anyone know where i can get the polished speedo rings from? I thought had seen them on Smithys site before but can't seem to find them now. :rolleyes:

also very interested so if you do end up selling it so let me know if you end up wanting to sell it.

It should say 'Styling by Steve Wonder' on the back!

Any idea of the best place to get hold of Wings West mid-wing?

I forgo to say i spotted it about 1.30 on Sunday heading into the city centre

Nice silver Z with black and red jap wheels and high-level spoiler. Anyone on here? If so what rear spoiler have you got? its exactly what i am after!

Is this the Bomex one? I quite like it but i have seen an even more exaggerated version that flicks up slightly more and is a bit deeper.

Does anyone know who makes the exaggerated version of the standard rear spoiler, do you know the one i mean?

has anyone got a picture of the front spoiler?

Sorry to hijack, but Can you get this kit or a replica (with out the rear spoiler) in the UK ? The sidesirts look sweet!

Yeh, iI have four silencers in total, mainly because i didn't want it to be to loud. I would have thought that a pair of small tightly packed silencer would be worth a try and they have got to be better than putting the cats back in.

I have small silencers in place of the Cats and have never had any smoke on idle or anyother time.

Pete, i wish it had boost its a NA! :( hummm perhaps it is the heat shields then! But then again it does sound quite mechanical and bloody loud. Worth a look though, are they easy to remove?

Can detonation occur when idling from cold? The reason i ask is because i am trying to solve a engine rattle that fits the description used by many for detonation (stones being shaken in a bean can). Its quite loud and rises and fall with the rev's until the engine is really hot.

Cheers Andy, I am interested but am going to double check that the pump is knackard tonight. How much are you after for it? I take it it is all ok?

Does anyone know the best place to get hold of a power steering pump, and what sort of cost it would be?

Cheers Eris - I just came across this myself. I am starting to think it must be the pump but i will check it out tonight.

Cheers Eric - Yes i did touch the bolt behind the pulley when I adjusted the belt tension, but i am sure that i tightened it back up. Is it possible to bleed the air out of the system?

whilst replacing the VTC springs to solving one rattle (i think) I seem to have created another! While everything was out i took the opportunity to check all the belts. The Steering pump belt was quite lose so i tightened this up, put everthing back together, started it up and all seemed sweet until today. I now have a mettalic bearing type rattle that rises and drops with the engine speed until it has really warmed up then it goes. It seems to becoming from the power steering pump area. I have checked the power steering fluid levels and chucked in some additive but have had no luck. Has anyone had anthing like this? Does the PS pump need replacing or can the bearing be fixed?

Part numbers are: 13070H - Spring 1304EU - O ring

I am after the same info so let me know how you get on cheers!

Hi Andy, would worn VTC springs cause an intermittent rattle? mine rattle goes if i stop the engine and restart after a few minutes. Can you also advise me on the best place to get hold of the part numbers for the springs and seals?

Thanks for the link. I think i will give retrimming ago myself and see what happens. All i have to do is choose what colour to use!

Does anyone knowthe best place to buy vinyl/leather from to do my own re-trim of the door panels etc.? Also, i thought i had seen a write up on how to do this somewhere, but can't find anything now :confused:
