Ordered a new set of number plates.... hoping to put in for its first MOT since October 2013 on Monday, then on to the paint shop. The recommisioning is nearly complete!

+1 for Gummi Pledge. Certainly helped bring the suppleness back to my targa seals and solved the very minor leak I had

Could be the speed sensor getting wet and shorting out? Steering weight is lightened/loaded up dependant on speed

Why didn't this even remotely occur to me?!?

Old thread revival I know! I need a new rear plate, however my current "import" size plate is technically too tall as it's too big to use the hooks on the plate hanger. Can anyone confirm that the sizing above is the correct size that the plate correctly sits on the plate hanger Cheers

I personally used ACL in my build, but I know Mitch at EPR swears by King Racing bearings for his builds. Unless your planning on changing the pistons themselves for forged items, is just go for OE rings.

That's because you're a social whore :P

Stephen, can I ping you a message about your rear brake setup? You on FB?

I can't say I've ever seen that kinda screw on the Z before

Cheers mate

Not of YouPorn variety Can someone do me a favour and take a picture of the screws that hold the rear numberplate illumination bracket to the rear bumper. One of mine has gone walkies and none of my spares Nissan screws seem to either look right or have the correct thread pitch. Cheers all Nick

The CRD ones the new remote res units?

It'll never happen unfortunately. They pulled out of the 80mph increase due to the increase in emissions. Add the fact that the government now get fined for not hitting the set air pollution reduction levels, it would cost them money to increase the limit.

Looking forward to seeing the results Si

Can't say I noticed it in mine, but I'm taking the door cards off again soon so I'll have another look

Bring back Ron Burgandy!

I was going to say, very similar to the 964/993 shape Cup split rims that came on a couple of the special editions

This is year I fully intend to be there in a finish car! (Yes, I know I said that last year, best intentions and all!) - - - Updated - - - *finished

Personally I'm not a fan of track time at shows. Always seem to have idiots out there trying to show off or have something to prove, nor do I think they offer any real value for money. Agree with what Pete says about airfield day. Find they are much close to road conditions than track in terms of surface quality, but are good for this wanting to establish how their car behaves when pushed in a less intimidated/Armco lines environment, but nothing g flows like a dedicated circuit

Congrats to you both

The company I book 95% of my track days through http://www.opentrack.co.uk/product-category/goodwood/

Only downside to Goodwood is it's pretty expensive (£225 for the day) vs Abingdon which is £90-120

Goodwood is a lovely circuit. Had a wail of a time a few years back in the Z, soaking wet in the morning and dry as a bone in the arvo, and they had free tuition AND the chance to go for a blast with Anthony Reid (former btcc God) in a new exige cup! Awesome day! I'm also looking at doing a day at Abingdon to re familiarise myself with my Z after all the works finished, which is looking like mid spring g time.

If you're planning on going for more power anytime in the next few years, I'd say yes, get all the bits you need to change for a laters injector. However, as there are now a fair few options available, I would go for a top feed rail setup over a side feed setup. The new generation top feeds are a very stable injector platform and if offers you more injector choice. If you have no plans to go above a slight boost increase or don't plan on keeping the car in the long term, stick with old style side feeds. It's not worth the expense to upgrade.
