tyre blew out today
That's bad luck mate...... during the snow I managed to whack the curb on wife's car, buckled the wheel, ouch then my son gets a flat from a pot hole in our runabout and the tyres shagged.....of course it was one of the front tyres that I replaced just before Christmas:mad: Dreading putting new rubber on the Zed anytime soon as new tyres seem to be a bloody magnet for me for getting puctures etc.

Voted as well. I think the COMQ would work better aswell, giving some of us newbies a chance to get our zeds a bit nearer the mark. H

Cash plus my cougar for.....
Ok so it's 1k more than the grey one ...... and it's in N.I but to find a good car.... (any car you must be preapred to travel). http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NISSAN-300ZX-TWIN-TURBO-UK-CAR-SERIES-II-1993-L-REG_W0QQitemZ150400878080QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAutomobiles_UK?hash=item2304974600# but it has had only 2 owners and looks like (if genuine) has a full SH which IMO is worth a lot with these cars. I would see if they would accept an offer as there cannot be many people out there this time of year after a Zed. It's an auto, but I bet with the money you'd save on this one against the Ph car you could put towards a manual swap in time. Personally if I had just had new turbo/s timing belt changed, the last I would be doing would be selling, which makes me think what else might be wrong with it to make him sell. Tread carefully young man! :) H.

Anyone with a wide arch kit .....suspension?
Camber adjustment at the rear as well, thanks Allan. Nearly got all the parts just waiting for the weather to get a bit warmer, and haven't decided on which shocks spring to go for. Don't want anything to hard as I wish to keep my spine intact, anything to low and I will have to redo the driveway as the slope at the moment only just lets the car into the garage. Either that or move house, lol. H.

Anyone with a wide arch kit .....suspension?
Hi, looking at replacing all the OEM suspension on my car as it's the only thing that was never fitted when the kit was done. As expected the inside of the tyres wear faster because of this and the car sits a bit to high on the OEM shocks/springs. So to all the guys who have a wide arch kit fitted what suspension did you go with and what other parts did you replace/recommend I replace while I'm there so to speak? Here's my list so far. Drop links Tension Rods Tension rod bushes Upper link adjustable camber arms Eibach spring f&r Shocks - ? cheers H.

Removal of Rear Lights
I removed my light units recently, just used a wallpaper scrapper blade to carfeully run around the rear of the light unit to break the seal. Mine had been out before and someone had used Tigerseal as well as the old Nissan sealant. As an earlier poster said it a very messy job and the stuff sticks like $h*t to a blanket. Oh yes and if you want to get hold of the original Nissan sealant strips it is still available @ £25! per unit. H.

You can get specific energy saving bulbs if you have a dimmer switch, otherwise the bulb won't last long :oops: H.
