Whats the point of doing the work and then not having soms sideways fun my wife is allways saying its about time i grew up but 40 years old and still loving the speed

Thanks for all the advice i will go the garage today and drop the pressure to 28 psi and see if that helps but good news is i had a silly boy in a saxo last night try and race me off the lights and with wheels spinning still made him look stupid.:smash:

My car is an auto and if i am doing 40 and put my foot hard down she just wheel spins like a good un i am not to sure about the tyres been budget i got my wheels and tyres off C J thay are the ones that were on his candy apple red 300.But i have posted another thread and it looks like i am going to have to sell here anyway.:cry:

Don't know if this is in the right section but her goes,i might have to sell the Z my wife is pregnant with our first child need some advice on a car i have in mind it's a subaru legacy gt-b twin turbo i think not bad spec for the money one on ebay at the mo for £2500 with 57000 miles on it and only imported last year anybody had one or know anyone thats had one any advice welcome.:cry:

I have got 265's on and the tyre make is hancook ventue sport.And the tyre pressure is 34 psi.

I thought about it how much is it? and is there a cheaper way even in the dry the back will not stick

As above i have a boost controller and an induction kit with the boost controller set to 15 psi i can not seem to get the power down i have got new rear shocks and whiteline lowering springs which i been told are 15% stiffer than standard but every time i put my foot hrd down the rear tyres just spin my car is an auto which proberbly does not help the tyres are hancook ventures sport with plenty of tread anybody get any hints.

Welcome to the club to the club mate.

Thanks for the advice but i have decided to stay with the standard pulley for now as for the crank pulley i went to halfords and got one and asked the manager if it does not work can i have a refund so got it home it worked just fine but then decided to take it back because i hope i will not have to use it again told the manager i needed a special tool from nissan and got a full refund.Jobs a good un.

I haven't been on here for a while so a belated welcome back mate.:)

I dont know if i have to do this but just to let you know i have just renewed my member ship transaction number was 80K49252V5023174L.

Sorry to keep adding to this thread but have just seen this on ebay and was wondering if anybody has ever used one.Item number is NISSAN 300ZX Z32 TURBO & N/A Lightweight Crank Pulley 350108491450 sorry but don't know how to put a link up.

Anybody got any idea what size tool to use two different sizes on the halfords website 4" and 6".

Or could i be really cheeky and borrow one from someone.

Thanks for the quick reply will do after i get my waterpump done.

Sorry to highjack this thread i have got the same prblem low speed is ok go over 80 and hit the brakes hard and it shudders like hell i have changed the front discs for brembo ones and changed the pads and its still doing it.:mad:

Is there anyother way of getting the bottom pulley off without using a pulley tool.

All the best Vinz get well soon mate.

Sorry mate as far as i know you can not get married in the Maldives but you can renew your vows.But you can always go there on your honeymoon it is a beautiful place i will post some pics if you want me to just to give you an idea i was swimming with reef sharks and sting rays last week and now i am sitting here with my eyes burning after finishing my night shift this morning and only managing to get about 3 hours sleep god i want to go back.

Have just got back from my honeymoon we went to the Maldives what a place great weather lovely clear blue sea its just like it is on the TV adverts but much better.Anyway now comes the bad part we landed at Male airport which is the Maldives only airport got through customs and decided to change some money so changed £200 into the rufiyaa which is there main currency get to our island and tow days later went to pay our room bill and was told thay dont take there own money but will take us and UK at this point i asked for the manager and was told the same so i payed in pounds and all was fine after landing in Britain decided i should change the rufiyaa back over to pounds only to be told by the post office,all the travel agents in Tamworth and various banks that they will not change it back so if anyone is lucky enough to go be WARNED do not get any of there own money cos it is not worth the paper it is printed on.

Thanks for the advice will have ago tomorrow will let you know how i get on.:bow:

Any idea how much the pumps and is this what you have to take off top and bottom hoses radiator cam covers aux belt viscus fan assy and which is better paper gasket or silicon if silicon what type eg instant gasket.

As above have not used the car for three weeks cos was on my honeymoon got back in the z on wednesday and she started first turn of the key anyway coming home from work on saturday and 100 yards from home temp started climbing,got home car was on the drive and wooosh steam everywhere it looks like the waterpump bearing has collapsed is it hard to change has anyone got any tips.I am not happy cos i guy who had it before me had the cambelt changed 18 months ago and skimped on it by not having the waterpump done aswell.So can anyone help please.

I have been having the same problem found a small leak on the inlet to the fuel filter and by sniffing like a dog i think i have found a leak around the number 2 piston which i think maybe the fuel rail.
