Ferking hell mate...AA bloke was a complete :xxx: Cany just jack on a sill or seam in the body..gotta jack on something structural..had this on mine when I bought it but managed to sort it without too mutch difficulty...get it sorted and bill the AA...cowboys.... The tracking is well out though....cant tell from the pic but it could be the king pin inclination...donno if this is adjustable on a z...never thought about it... I know you can get adjustable top bushes so it must be...if you are lowered then this would cause it....cant do one thing without the other afterall!!! That aint rubbing on your tyre, its wear (no feathering at all!) Let us know!

Major engine problem!!!
white smoke not oil mate...that would be darker...blue/grey White will be water most likely,,,as you say, second hand so likely to be condensation/water. From what u say the rattle is exhaust rather than engine....My pipes rattle as they are as rusty as you like and bits have dropped off inside but not worried abut it as know they are as good as dead! If in doubt mate get it checked properly if you dont know about it all. Whts the worst that could happen? Good luck!

petrol problem
As before...Diesel is only oil afterall and a fiver worth is not a lot compared to a tankfull!! Might smoke a little for a while but it will clear in time so dont worry about it... Interestingly...if you have a diesel engine that smokes and you want to sell it...put a squirt of unleaded in the tank to calm it down....sold!!!

Tesco Petrol 77.3p
I got a pretty much standard Jap import and do the sainsburys/BP thing (nectar points!),, wonder what petrol they have in japan???? Ever thought about using an octane booster/additive?? Had a mate with a Scooby who reckoned this was the only way his would run well????????

Coolant temp guage giving me the runaround!
I had a prob with my temp guage...read fine until I accelerated hard...wierd Tracked it to the temp sender, dodgy connection, (thanks to some help from here). Could be that you have an airlock somewhere in the system. To eliminate this take rad cap off (first)...run till ferking hot ...squeeze a few hoses when warm to help force the little ferker out...bottom rad hose usually gets it on the move)....no bubbles no air lock. Reckon if it was the Thermo then it would happen all the time but who knows? Good luck!!

Help speeding ticket
Not having a go mate..just saying there are consequences...hey..we all get away with what we can.... :) I stick to limits like a frustrated lesbian to a dildo (can I say that?) Lets face it, we can all do fast in a straight line...easy to get carried away I know!! (Check my rides....why do I still have a licence???) I prefer the Z around bends & country roads....wasting some :xxx: who thinks they know better (and I aint modded like some of you guys....(not enough cash!!!!) I reckon people know the Z is a better car (despite its age) than most modern pieces of sh*t. OOhhhh....love my Z :hyper:
