no 10mm spacer will make it worst, as the wheel spacer is only for decreasing the offset not increasing the offset if i am right. So, i'll fit em on and do the 4 wheel alignment to get a better handling hopefully.

hi there, I have bought a 19" wheel for my soarer from Andy, but the offset of this wheel is only 35, and i am looking for 45 (as standard for Soarer). there is 10mm different, what do you guys suggest me to do? do i need to sell it and buy another one( dont really want to do this way, as it is a really nice wheel)? any suggestion appreicated Thanks indeed

as it is quicker than waiting for someone who interested in your car, just dunno how much they can offer you?

thanks for the linking, steve do you think that autotrader is useful to sell your car? as friends of mine advertised their car on autotrader for two weeks and no call from the buyers except some trades (the trade will ask you to place another advertising on their web or magazine, and cost you about 60-80quid), so if I sell my car in the very near future, i don't even know what is the best way to advertise? Does anyone know trading in your car to dealers?

with no mod!!!*

where do you suggest to place advertising except autotrader? as it seems that only autotrader is the only place to sell your car, what about trade it to a local dealer? I have been told that they just give you 2 grand for 91 300zx, is it true?

hi, everyone, I would like to ask a stupid question, how much am i going to ask if I sell my 300zx? as I am working out my finance (I have to leave the uk after July or Augest due to I have done the degree course), and dunno how much I can get, I have seen the autotrader recently, it seems I can ask for 3500 - 4000, but not sure. the spec of my zed: midnight blue Twin Turbo, Targa Top Auto, 1989 G Reg Japanese Import last December, I am the second owner in the UK service history in the UK (just one) arround 73000 miles Cat 2 Immobliser E/W,E/M,E/S air-con, full windows tinted HKS Super Drager Exhaust JWT Chipped 18" alloys wheel new types, cam belt changes at 60000 miles just service includes brakes pad (EBC Red Stuff), gearbox oil change(Redline), HKS Ir (forgot how to spell it) Spark plug, oil change (Agip Racing oil) HKS Turbo Timer Type 0(still in box, never wire to the car) JVC CD/JBL speakers VGC

no, I have done the both plugs next to the balance bar (top left and top right), the one I can't get is in the middle of right hand side, so no idea how to do it myself. Thanks for that

because the wrench I bought from Halfords is too thick and there is something next to the plug in the middle of right hand side, that's why I don't have enough room to get the wrench into the plug. (sorry about my english, but what I mean is I really tried everything to take it out, but it seems no way to take it out with the wrench) I think I have to go to some local garage, and ask em to do it for me, as when the repairer replaced the spark plug to turn it over last week, I remember that they have a tool which is really easy to take it out and put it back in. Big Thanks for all of you

but it just cut off for about two seconds only when the both turbo is on, and after that everything is back to normal. Also I mentioned it before that it is running with 5 HKS and one NGK plug (the cheapest one in the world, lol), is it one of the reason that cause the problem I have got? I am trying to get the tools which will fit the plugs from my friends in these few days, I hope after I replace the plug from NGK to HKS, then all the problem will go away (my dream!!!). To Dibrain: Thanks for your reply, I'll take it to the z world or somewhere specific for 300zx, but before that I really want to try something to get it fixed, as you know I would like to spend as little as possible to get it repaired, so........... . anyway i'll let you know what is going to be.

no one knows anything about it? I am so worried.

I have tested it already with 5 HKS plugs and 1 NGK plug, and the problem is still here, do you guys have any advise? or anything I can do at this stage? Please help!!!! thanks indeed

Thanks, it looks really great for parts

I have replaced it already, and the code of NGK plugs is BCP6ES, I have only done five of em, as the wrench I bought which is not long enough to replace the middle of right hand side, is there any problem to done five of em only? Also I haven't tested it yet, I'll test drive this evening, as too many cars on the road now. Cheers

I bought the wrench for spark plug today, and I'll try to replaced it instead of HKS plugs tomorrow, let's see if it's help. Also, what I need to do next if I replaced em and can't sort the problem? Thanks

yes, I think the plug I have now is crap, and I am going to put my HKS plugs back in soon.

have you got any good recommendation for fuel treatment stuff? Thanks

no, the only thing I haven't done yet is HKG plug, as I mentioned before, I haven't got a tool to take the NGK out of the engine, and put the hks plugs back in as well. But the other three I have done already, I am pretty sure about it, as I followed the link by AndyP to make sure which connector I need to clean, so........ let's see what happen if I replaced my HKS spark plug. Is that mean you don't think it is dangerous to drive hard? as I am worried about it becuase of the word from my friend.

also I have clean the AFM and tested it already, but it seems not very helpful the problem is still here, any ideas?

I have been told that the problem I have now is dangerous to drive, as it may has some serious problem - the engine or turbo is nearly finished, that's what my friend told me, do you guys think that is this really made sense?

"The AFM is the Air Flow Meter which you will find under the nose panel on the front of the car" I have done the other two, but I am not sure where is the AFM, as I don't know where is the nose panel actually. Sorry about it, would you like to explain it a little more for me, please? Also, I have clean the HKS plug already, and it looks ok to work I think, but I haven't got a tool to take the NGK one out of my engine, so I'll let you know what NGK code number it is in a few days. I don't know the problem is still here or not, as I haven't tried to test it yet, I will try it to see whether it works after I find out where is AFM. Thanks for your help

SMW1: please let me ask you one more question before I clean the sensors you have mentioned..... Can you please tell me what is TPS and AFM stand for? and briefly tell me where can I find it? I know it is a stubid question, but I really dunno what the hell it is. PS. you won't see my post after you replies until I have clean these three sensors, lol Big Thanks

yes, I know, becuase I am not good at vehicle, so I thought the car was not turnning over, but when the mechanic inspected it two days ago, he told me it is not firing, that's why he replaced the spark plug for me. I know if I tell you early, it may saves a lot of money and times to get the car running, but please understand that my english is not very good especially listenning, I may misunderstand what all of you means. Anyway Thanks for that.

no, the hks plug is in my hand now, the NGK one is brand new, and yes the engine was turnning but not firing, that's what the problem was. I haven't got the aftermarket intake, the only intake I have is standard air box. Do I need to get a aftermarket intake to sort it out? Sorry about my knowlegement of vehicle, as I don't even know what TPS is. the repairer/mechanic started the engine up for me although he has taken me about 2 weeks, that's what I want to fix, and he did, so I think that's enough for me. Anyway I really what to know what the problem with engine power dying when I drive it hard, please tell me more about it. Also I have been told that becaue the spark plug (NGK one) is a normal one (for normal car - Rover), not for a performance sport car, so it may harm the engine and that's why I have the problem with the engine dying (not only at 4000rpm, as long as you drive it hard and when the turbo is coming, also it is NOT always happend), does anyone know something about it? any advise appreciated.

Hi everyone, the problem I had is sorted by replacing the Spark Plug, because my old one are fludid already, and the repairer told me it is really difficult to turn it over if the spark plug fludid like my old one. Now the repairer replaced a set of NGK, and it cost me about 20 quid (instead of my old one - HKS, i bought it for about 120 quid two months ago), after turnning it over, and everything is fine, BUT when I accelerate it and the turbo is coming when the rev about 4000, then there is a big 'bob' sound from the back of zed, then I can't accelerate it anymore for about two second, after that, everything is back to normal, it is NOT always happend, I would say sometimes happend, therefore I don't know what's going on again, there is another question for all you guys :mac1: , anyway please give me some advise, as I have been told it may have some big serious problem
