Have you tried MJP/Mr.F (in the traders section) - The clubs Nissan parts supplier. Its not going to be a cheap part though, its a hefty item.

Propshaft or house
Most common issues for drivetrain vibration is the Rear gearbox mount and the Prop centre bearing. The Gearbox mount collapses over time causing the gearbox to move out of alignment which puts excess strain on the propshaft centre bearing and causes it to fail prematurely. An improved design Nismo gearbox mount is around £75 and propshaft centre bearing is around £150. The less common cause is the prop shaft U.J';s themselves. They can be rebuilt, or it can just be easier to fit a 2nd hand propshaft or a one piece propshaft. I have a one piece propshaft on mine and it has the advantage of being around half the weight of the stock 2 piece item, which equates to better response, improved acceleration and more power at the rear wheels. If you go for a one piece then its best to replace the gearbox mount as well.

Yep, mine is Blue tint all round :) Greg replaced his JDM tint with a Blue tint without changing the rest, and the difference between front and sides was'nt noticeable but the front looked much than the old brown tint.

Does'nt even need to be a TT, a good NA Manual can be a blast to drive.

He has an NA Auto, which could be the cause of the problem, sorry other NA Auto owners, but its not the most thrilling to drive out of the range.

Steve Millen and the 300zx
Yes...well presumably...there's no data out there on his wheelbase dimensions. But people try and use this excuse to claim the 2+2 has some sort of handling advantage because that's what Steve Millen used in a tubular frame car that only loosely resembles an actual 300zx. In reality the advantages to the altered wheel base would offer the ability to alter weight distribution easier. The driver is positioned effectively where the rear seats would be normally, which is'nt possible with the SWB, and it gives more room for a larger fuel cell positiioned more in the centre of the car.

Its a tubular framed chassis with fibreglass body, it does'nt resemble a SWB or LWB.

Error 14 speed sensor
Thats an odd one. If your speedo is working and the Informeter is reading the speed from the ECU then the Speed sensor circuit from the Gearbox to the Clocks, to the ECU must be fine. If your PAS working ok ? Hicas light coming on ? It does'nt put the car in safety mode of anything like that so you dont have to worry there, the only concern would be with the PAS and HICAS but if they are fine too.....

Blueflame quad system is quieter than the blueflame oval system.

new to this probs already!!
Welcome It will be the little black box behind the boot trim. Its on the Drivers side, you'll need to remove the plastic boot trim to get to it. Black box about 3" x 1.5" x 1", with a single connector.

I hate my exhaust..... is stock any good?
Stock is going to be more restrictive than aftermarket. Most of them are rotting away though these days and it is very quiet (you will hear the engine above the exhaust note). I'd say the mongoose/blueflame is a much better compromise as well as being Stainless steel.

I hate my exhaust..... is stock any good?
Yep, that would be my vote too for a quiter sounding option. The mongoose / blueflame quad exhaust.
