  1. Vat + Tax + Handling Fee's are typically around 25% of the total goods value with postage. There are ways to avoid or reduce this, but do take into account that any Courier insurance is based on the declared value. Imports do get damaged and go missing.
  2. You need a universal 2-wire Door actuator.
  3. £1.8million :eek: Thats a lot of stupid people paying for cars they've never seen.
  4. Thats the body width. The width between wheels, would be the vehicle Track width + 2(0.5 tyre section width) For an Import Z equipped with stock wheels that will be 1535mm + 225mm = 1760 mm (it will be slightly wider than this too, as actual tyre width is a little larger than the printed section width) For wheels with a different width or offset to stock then this will be different. It may squeeze on, but one sure way to get it on is with a pair of space saver wheels.
  5. 5ft 9" = 1750 mm 300zx width = 1800 mm (excluding mirrors). for future reference its also 4520 mm long. (or 4305 mmm for SWB)
  6. Mot regulations : Method of inspection : emits a steady red light Reason for rejection : emits other than a steady red light when the service brake is applied, or remains on when the brake pedal is released
  7. Looks like a bad earth. xD I can see these resulting in many stops from the police.
  8. What I would say though is that the Manual boxes on these are very strong. The only real issue that ever appears is worn syncro, typically 3rd - 4th. You quite often see people advertise breakers with rotting shells or overheating issues that would'nt prevent a quick gearbox test before it gets stripped.
  9. Just another option on the table : http://www.z1motorsports.com/product_info.php?cPath=4_40_142&products_id=1684 Brand new 98+ Spec Manual Gearbox -works out at about £1100, but unfortunately shipping from the U.S would need to be added to that, Z1 can quote if you ask them.
  10. The fuel filler neck is not counted in the capacity and holds a couple of litres.
  11. The Lamba sensors are in the Manifold on an NA, not in the decat pipes. They may have confused the cat temp light sensor for the Lamba sensor. This is not required without a cat. The AIV pipes are in the original cat pipe, but you can just block these off. They are not required.
  12. Yep, thats right. Just fit a non-precat elbow (from an Import) or fit aftermarket split wastegate elbow/downpipes.
  13. Yep, this is fake ! The actual date is October 21, 2015 Be patient...we will all have Hoverboards soon ! :dance:
  14. Yep, this was my understanding also. Its definatly not just 94 cars, I've not seen a UK car without them (except those fitted with aftermarket downpipes)
  15. How much was it up for ? (does'nt give price now its sold)
  16. A better way is to compare against some known offset and widths that provide a flush fitting without arch rolling. Front : 8.5" ET20 Rear : 9.5" ET35 This is about the maximum you can fit without requiring any arch mods or stretched tyres. You may be able to squeeze a little more, depending on tyre brand. Based on those, your fronts will extend an extra 1mm (perfect) , and the rear will extend a further 13mm (Would need some significant arch rolling/flaring and probably a tyre stretch or silly camber :no:). Look at going for a 35 offset instead to avoid this.
  17. So Sorry to hear Gary. :( RIP Rosie.
  18. I dont tend to watch TV anymore. My favourite Car "programs" are on the internet. Youtube channels like /(Drive) - especially Chris Harris's stuff, definitely my favourite Automotive journalist/presenter. The quality is beyond anything shown on TV. Chris Harris on Cars Main /Drive Channel : http://www.youtube.com/user/drive/videos Their /Tuned and /Driven sections are pretty good too. Also a bit partial to their /Drive Clean section. Another less professional alternative might be Mighty Car Mods. Certainly not up to the quality of /Drive, but the guys are fun to watch and their features can be entertaining.

  19. The Girl is cute, but the rest of the program is a bit cheesy.
  20. Based on the Ford Focus chassis. Nice little car, thats a little rarer than the normal family hatchbacks. Had a friend with a high spec fully loaded Diesel sport example, although he's just traded it in for a E60 535D. He owned it for about 4 years and was always fond of it.
  21. The first port of call is to ask them to remove your picture, if they dont then you can take action. You should get them to correct this also "This is an exact replica of the 99 spec 300zx wing which was available on the 97-99 Nissan 300zx fairlday Z in Japan. "
