how predictable and crap ending... Was good all the way and then they finish it like that. meh!

Morning buddy, Was good to meet you both Sunday. I am still burnt from Sunday lol. Was bad enough then thought it would be a good idea to drive home with the roof off, woops... As mentioned Sunday here is my engine and turbo stuff for sale. Engine: http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=132976&page=2 Turbos: http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=133024

I have O2 broadband and it's driving me nuts. I'm outside the area to have the 20mb line, i'm running upto 8mb. It keeps dropping all the time, but most randomly it keeps dropping the wireless which makes me think could it be a router issue. I have many routers, mainly all Zyxel but O2 are reluctant to release any config for the Zyxel routers. They give you a teaser to get you going but so many setting i can't get the right combo to get it working. Can't hack it no more. I was 400mb through a 800mb update i've been waiting for most the afternoon and bang drop connection and have to start again. Not amused in the slightest.

Haha, but that would be lowing our sleves to their standed ;) He should been ashamed of himself. Were you there in your car?

Te37 ;)

Ok so i was in the Queue to get into TheFastShow Sunday and you never guess who was sitting next to me???? I was thinking anyone but him..... It was only Pete from Thor Racing. After all i went through with them and screwing me over i had to be sitting next to him. Pete is the owner. I couldnt believe it. I mean he looked straight at me, i looked and looked away as you do and thought huh!?! WTF?? and looked back and just pointed at him. Pete like my 300zx? nope im not in it becuase what you guys did to me. By the way, Nick when you were following me, your Zed with that bumper looks sweet :D

Gtr?

ZCentre sells them i think. if not just buy them off ebay.

Got it sorted? there are several hidden bolts if i remember correctly. Something to do with the seat belt if a import model.

What do you use instead?

Rims, like my Blitz Rims for sale ;) lol. Now looking through your pics on your site, nice work. Wish i was a bit more handy with the fibreglass. :( I would love to make some parts of my own.

Ok no worries :D Let us know if and when you decide to go for it.

The Spl one comes with/replaces the factory inner tie rods which on our cars are usually old and rotten. The other brands don't. I have the spl one for sale. http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=135944

Think the welded part is actually yucky messy thick oil, if you look closer it looks like cogs underneath.

A sequential gearbox whines but i don't think a diff does as such. A normal H pattern gearbox. 1-5 Helical (diagnal cut) Reverse straight cut. (reverse whines none else do) A sequential. All the gears are straight cut. This is the really bazar part i dont get. Remote control cars e.g. FG marder, i always strip the gears, they are straight cut however you can buy a helical cut set which is very expensive about £60 i think which is meant to be stronger and a better mesh so how is it straight cut is stronger for cars and the other way around for rc cars. think you have the gearbox and diff confused buddy.

Oh the pics above the outer casing is not the actual diff. That is the transfer box. the big cog you see is the crown and the little one at the back is the pinion. The thing the big cogs bolted to (crown) is the actual diff. the top pic shows it best. This is from what i have learnt and made out from my diff and gears i ordered. I may not be 100% accurate but it's along those lines.

Nice pics. When i purchased my Quiafe diff and leader gears crown and pinion i always assumed that the crown and pinion went inside the diff but when it all arrived i was like huh?? how?? it's bigger lol. The crown fits to the outside of the diff and the pinion then rotates the crown which in turn rotates the diff, well something like that. then all that fits within the transfer box which is pictured there. I always wondered what it looked like from the inside though. Nice find :D

Has anyone noticed lately that there is hardly anything for sale on ebay compared to what there used to be? Not just car stuff but everything.. Like camping mats, this time last year there would be 100's now there is hardly anything, same with other things. When i was listing some my car parts there wasnt much other stuff availible. Well i wonder why?? This is why i guess... I sold something on ebay for about £200 Ebay and paypal took off me about £28 for the sale of that item. £28 off £200 is crazy!! They have put their fees up and relists have now changed also. Keeping in mind ebay and paypal are the same company it is criminal. So... ebay charges you to list it, then a relist if it doesnt sell. They then take money off for any extras, buy it now, highlight, start time, extra pics etc. etc. Then when it sells they take a fee off afterwards And once the money has gone through paypal take another percentage. omg!! Thing which is really annoying they restrict how much you can put for postage, ok some people used to take the mic but some items are very different to what other people are selling which are similar and weight allot more so cost more to post. They don't take into account packaging also, some stuff had to go in Jiffy bags and bubble wrap which needs to be bought and them restricting postage does not cover all that and postage. I have 100's of records i could sell and things like that, but once the point??? by the time theifbay take their fees and percentages the money left is minimul and then is it really worth all the effort taking pics, descriptions and then listing. you can tell there are so many un happy people with ebay down to the lack of stuff on there these days. rar rar rar... rant over i guess haha.

I have sold allot of my parts now. I keep getting asked about my parts for sale and some have gone which i get asked about. I have updated parts sold in the for sale section with "Sold Please can a mod amend the tittle." on the last post by me. Could a mod please change the title but wouldnt mind leaving the thread open incase anyone has any questions about the parts as i will be more than happy to answer. There are parts i still have for sale: Ebay Items: Defi Heads up Display 2 watches. Blitz Dump valves with all 4 hard pipes 2 watches also, however these are listed on the site cheaper and i will honor the price on here to club members aslong anyone confirms they will have them before i get any bids. £300 posted on here. These are the other parts i have left which are on here. Cat 1. toad alarm Labree Exhaust system (one fo the best money can buy) Garnador wing mirrors Hicas eliminator tailgate tinted with spoiler etc. genuine wings west bumper Complete engine rebuild package Koyo Rad and bits. Specialty Z 900hp capable turbos with little lag 18" Blitz Type 03 rims with tyres Central 20 sport gauge holder (middle of dash) with 3 Defi gauges and link box Carbon Fibre dash vents I have several other parts for sale not listed on the site. Like Bride rails, Defi tachometer, TT injectors etc. etc. Which i will get round to listing when i've cleared some more of the other stuff. I hope this clears up what i have for sale still. I havn't listed a couple of items which are in the for sale section or marked them up as sold as i have dibs on them. Any questions please ask. Oh and my pm's get filled rather quickly these days lol. Thanks..

Not sure about fakes to be honest. However they do look good copies from the pics to be fair. Don't look far different from mine. I have the Z32 fitement rails to go with them for anyone interested. They also allow the seats to slide back and forth.

Very nice :D Do i see Brides :P What are they? Gias?

Noway, he still has it?!? Yours went in the same time ish as mine. Sorry to hear of your bad news. Why is it always the ones trying to do the big builds?

Yeah i bet. you can picture it. You get a car which is being a bit of a pain e.g. old trims or they want to get home so they rush it. Not sure what to do. I got a stupid price from one company but they said your paying for the install rather than a hash up.

Can someone recomend a good cat 1 alarm and fitter. Fitted prices are different all over the place. Supplier have been saying you have to get it fitted properly but surely if they are approved then it is properly. Some options would be nice. Thanks.

Yes it has a HID kit :D look very nice when on, adds a nice blue look to the lamps. It looks factory fit. There are brackets for it and everything as if it was there from the factory. Which i know it wasnt as i dont think it was ever a option. It might be one of your premium kits as it doesnt look like a normal one. Do you do any parts for the NSX?
