How FAR ive come since joining 300zx.co.uk
I know what you mean mate. Before I got my zeds I couldn't even change the oil on a car! Since then my zed has had approximately a 90% strip down and rebuild, including new engine, manual conversion, complete refurb of rear subframe, new suspension, plus hundreds of other little jobs. Plus I broke my first one. All the work on both cars was done by myself and I've only been able to teach myself and do the jobs because of this site and the advice and help I've got from it. So thank you all :punk:

Quick prop question
After converting to a manual box, I'm going to be fitting the prop tomorrow. I'm using the original auto rear half and a manual front. As the prop halves are from two different cars, I was wondering if there is any way to avoid vibration issues when it's fitted? Can't afford a one piece shaft at the moment so that's not an option.

manual engine into an auto
I had a manual engine in my first auto zed and the only difference I noticed when I went to a full auto (engine and gearbox) was that the auto engine boosted quicker, for the reasons you stated, but it wasn't any slower etc.
