Just would be nice to have some info on them with regards to spring rates and model number.

Have been in touch with tein they just gave me a standard price to overhaul most recent non adjustables and the cost was not far off what you say.

Hi i have reciently purchased some used Tein shocks with springs and i dont know what model they are as the previous owner just knew they were Tein and thats all :cool: They are like the stock struts but green with official Tein stickers and are lower than stock struts and are non adjustable in Height or Damper setting and have non pillow-ball type top mounts. They are obviously an Older model but i have done a search and come up with nothing, only coilover pics or info. Any help here would be apprieciated ie: spring rates/part number/model number in case i need to service them. ;)

My Vg30 has panty liners underneath to catch the leaking oil!! so a vg30 can have liners :rofl: :rofl: :p

Andy how much would Manual Tubs slow an Auto down? if any? Me and Greg both have manual tubs on an Auto Engine/box but i am not sure if i can feel much difference but i could be wrong! ;)

Cheers :)

Ok Thanks for your help :D

Ok thanks! would i need any spacers front or rear? as they are 8j for the standard 18" wheels not split size's like the UK 300z :cool:

Do they??? :rofl: :rofl:

Hello, Anyone know the offset of Factory 18" 350z wheels and the 18" Rays wheels. and will they fit a 300z with no mods? I know the offset for a 300z is +35.

Spelling lesson due here :D

As above more than likely an alarm or some sort of immobiliser

Checked carpets and underneath all bone dry!? i do have a tiny drip fron t-tops and thats in the most heaviest rain have tried Silicon grease and another set of t-tops but no luck :headvswal

Lol You must be Richer than me then :D

Do you have Damp Trouble with yours?

Only lately The problem is i hardly use it! Maybe once a Month for a 10 mile trip. Where i hardly use it it gets real damp inside so it takes at least 15 minutes to clear all the windows with the Aircon and heated screen.

Trust me after all that work i do not want to touch it and i love working on Cars :headvswal

Pcv's and hoses are New! No Pudding's Unfortunatley? nor pies ;)

Well for your Information Its Friday and I need a Pint to Chillout!! AndyDuff knows what i mean :D

Have you ever thought of moving to Southampton?? it would save me having to spendout on a datascan ;)

No Andy its only done less that 400 miles

Yes mate and you thought right! I am a mechanic by trade? Thanks for pointing that out :headvswal But you tell me a Mechanic that knows every car inside out?? I would not have built an Engine from scratch without putting New Stem seals in would i? I am looking for simular symptoms that other Zed owners have experianced so i can get a few other ideas as to what it could be without stripping the Engine bay down Just yet! and i have no Diagnostic Equipment to hand for the zed or a working Co2 Meter. Thanks for your help :D

i have had both of my J-Specs do exactly the Above too!! You can certainly feel the rear stiffening up :D

Hi, I have grey blue smoke emitting from both Exhausts a few seconds after starting Engine from Cold Only!? It is quite dense untill it has warmed up? and smells strong of fuel/oil? I have no idea of what it could be other the over Rich Fuel/ Air ratio at cold start. I would say it is gone after 1/4 mile of light driving from cold. Engine Runs as sweet as all through this period with no hessitation. I have no access to a consult or other and would be able to isolate the problem if it was to only happen when hot, but not sure about when Cold only? Any Idea's? This is a freshly Built Engine! :headvswal Cheers
