  1. 1994 onwards mate, so your alright ;) smithy
  2. Can't comment on the actual product being sold. But certainly others that are similar are quite easy to fit if your any good at that kinda thing and have the few basic tools. The seller however is very well known from this forum and been in the business a long time, so i'd deffo trust him with what ever he sells tbh. Cheers smithy
  3. Not really, similar but certainly not teh same am aware off. Nope to the flywheel. Oh it's only silly if you don't ask mate:-) smithy
  4. Now this is what kinda stops zeds from getting decent prices IMO. Peeps who seriously abuse the bloody thing so it looks like that!! Least it's got a "time turbo" :rofl: Sorry Si, but even with those wheels mate, those arches are hideous!! Your being far too generous today, what's up with yer :) smithy
  5. It's an Automatic line controller mate. I dug this out for yer ;) http://www.hksusa.com/products/?id=641 Cheers Smithy
  6. Mine is average 76-79 degrees, upto i would say 84ish is okay. I think Nissan state 80-82 as the correct temp. Am using Howe rad and slam panel :) smithy
  7. C'mon then will yer gezz ;) Oh and save the answers till AFTER the guessing game :p Stuart's just caught up with Jimmy now already, lol laterz smithy
  8. In that case will yer get hold of yer ole fella and tell him to get back here, I wanna know as others do, :hyper::hyper: smithy
  9. Well done mate, good to see yer luck changing :smash: smithy
  10. Yeah unfortunately that link don't work now cos Danny deleated the actual post. Anyway pic below, sorry just yet i can't make the wording bigger to veiw. But in short, Nissan of the late 80's early 90's used very similar suspension set ups, however similar being the operative word, offsetts are not the same across the board. So in theory parts made for other Nissan's will certainly fit in the space given, but doesn't always mean it does the same job. Add to that our car is possibly the heaviest out of the other nissans our parts will fit and vice versa, i personally favour these type of parts to be supplied and manufactured by companies who specialise in the Zed only and not generic Nissan. cheers smithy
  11. No mate, you've got aftermarket ones there. Could be summitt like EBC discs or DBA. My suggestion on pad choice for yer still stands though ;) Hope that helps. cheers smithy
  12. Electric wing mirror adjustment and wing mirror fold in switch. Must be a jap spec is it. smithy
  13. As long as no one has a model of my Zed and then sticks pins in it, am quietly confident :D smithy
  14. Ah gotcha, lots of it's ****ed :D Thank god my days of those are well and truly over, i hope :) Cheers smithy
  15. As far as i know Hawk's are imported mate and Danny DTA who sells a lot of brake pads, some imported and some not, from experience favours other brands... If your on stock discs and calipers and the calipers have never been serviced that you know off, then tbh the pad choice for you isn't going to make such a significant difference. Can i therefore suggest the mintex 1144 or Porterfields if your completly stock, a middle of the road price wise pad. HTH Smithy
  16. Nice Blue/Purple on the truck on the front page of HOK's website http://www.houseofkolor.com/ smithy
  17. Nice one mate and certainly good to see yer water temps down to a more respectable reading ;) Was it one of Jeff's free assessments you went in for or a general lets see whats ****ed and fix it :D Cheers smithy
  18. Must be the 6 puck version one is it mate ? ta smithy
  19. I run the RPS carbon carbon in mine and it feels great :) Unlike sosme other companies, all mating parts are carbon on carbon, it WILL take what ever horse power you can throw at it, gauranteed and yep feels pretty stock too. Expensive like, but the price includes the matching fly and is reputed to be the very last clutch you'll ever buy for yer Zed ;) smithy
  20. He did originally mate, but it fooked up so now he's using an RPS Max :) cheers smithy
  21. Deffo the MAX street mate, the sport won't do your set up. Yep RPS only do 1 flywheel, probably the most expensive on the market, but then it's somewhat different and gaurnteed, other 1 to consider the JWT flywheel, very good and less pricey. 6 puck clutches are more designed for the strip, they either on or off as a paddle clutch is, being 6 puck also means it wears out quicker and is more expensive to replace the disc when it's worn. Cheers smithy
  22. Geez had a few things to sort then :) All basic setting up stuff by the sounds of it though. I know you've been sooo frustrated lately trying to get it running right, trying everything under the sun. Sometimes it's so much easier to forget it and give it to a man who does what it says on the tin :D Well done! smithy
  23. So did he wave his magic wand and sort all yer niggley probs out for yer mate, if so what was the culprit ? Glad yer a happy chappie now though :) smithy
  24. To me the 1st 2 BOLD numbers are the offsets, 2nd number could be the length, but the 3rd am pretty sure is the stud size and pitch, as nearly all the zed stuff is fine pitch, i:e 1.25, so from that, i would say the FTO is no good mate. smithy
  25. Glad it's back home with yer mate, that certainly was the most important thing and i was more than happy to help. :) Least you've got a few months now to get it sorted ready for Z009, I'll be there meself fingers crossed. Oh and tbh, cheese burgers go down better than beer with me :D cheers smithy
