Too Cheap????????????????
Have 4 good Autoboxes available - £250 each Thats a lot cheaper than that U.S one, once you add shipping and duties (they want up to $350 just for delivery in the states).

Audio
I have the JBL 6x4 speakers in stock : http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=85857 as well as Infinity Kappa 16.5cm Components for the front - Better sound quality than 6x9's and much easier to fit : http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=85859

speed sensor
I very much doubt they are the same and there is a differnce for s13/14, They are dependent on gear ratios, 300zx NA and 300zx TT speed sensors differ for example.

I think I might be a CHAV!! lowering spring dilema!
Be Interesting to know what those ebay specials are like.......... but Eibachs are a tame drop, there are other options. I keep meaning to check what springs my Silver Z is running, much lower than Eibachs.

Retard/advancing the ignition timeing
Stock Base timing when at normal running temp is 15 degrees. Advancing the base timing by a couple of degrees can offer more power, but at the risk of detonation. Advancing/Retarding the Base timing is done by moving the CAS unit with the aid of a Timing gun. Most Aftermarket ECU's (except some varients of the mines which require a base timing retard) depend on a base idle of 15, and then alter the timing depending on the rev/load range for best performance and its best to keep the stock timing and allow the ECU programmers expertise to advance/retard it correctly. Some ECU chips do run very rich with little timing advances, such as the JWT....allowing you an extra couple of degrees advance.......but I would'nt recommend it if your not used to listening for detonation as there is some risk involved.

Tyres and my budget findings
100% Agree. Thouroughly Impressed with the 452's.... like Goodyear F1's but cheaper

Radiator On Ebay, Any Good?
Definately worth the extra yes ! Lighter, much larger and all Aluminium, instead of plastic ends. The Majortiy of any Reliablity issues with the TT are from excess heat, especially with increased boost - the stock Rad is not really up to the job. £280 from SWZ. Direct fit. Stock brackets can be modified to fit, although many just fit without.

Radiator On Ebay, Any Good?
OE Spec..Looks like plastic end tanks. Should be better than a 2nd Hand OEM unit.

400+ bhp out of an N/A
Highest NA I have seen in the states only had about 300 horses. Without Forced induction or a huge shot of NOS with forged internals it would'nt be possible to get anywhere near the figures he boasts.

18's with 255's
If your taking about the rear then absolutely no problems in fact the typical 300zx aftermarket fitment for 18's is a 265 wide on the rear, I would'nt go any narrower than a 255 rear on a TT. I have 285 with 19"...no clearance issues and I have very low suspension. If your talking about the fronts then depending on suspension height you could come into very occasional clearance issues and tramlining would start to become more apparant

anyone know this kit?
I like the stillen skirts (when they are blended) , not really a fan of that stillen front bumper though.....quite a dated design - the stock bumper(s), but the lip does help.

Lost is Superb. :bow: Its annoying that they've shown the first half a dozen episodes of the new series and are not showing the rest till Feb though :rant:

more power but still limited
You'll almost definatly have a standard ECU but does'nt stop somebody sticking in a pair of boost jets. Get yourself a Boost gauge. Although the others dont need to be in safety mode to affect performance (and was this checked with an ECU error code test and boost gauge? - as most owners have no idea there car has always been in safety mode!).....incorrect fuelling from faulty o2 sensors, fuel pressure regulators, incorrect timing...etc are all common and affect performance.

too cheap???????????????
Correct link http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/90-96-Nissan-300ZX-Skyline-R32-Low-Springs-Coilovers_W0QQitemZ140067139536QQihZ004QQcategoryZ40192QQtcZphotoQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I would'nt touch them. Coilovers are a complete Adjustable Shock and Spring setup....these are not, they are just sleeve over springs with an adjustable collar. May be a worthwhile purchase if you could find out the spring rates first.

hi questions again lol
LWB Boot (Normally carpet) SWB Boot (has more depth but does'nt go back as far)

hi questions again lol
Boot space is impressive for a Car of its type...one of the design requirements by Nissan was to be able to fit a Full set of Golf clubs in the boot. Enough for Kids pushchair and a fortnightly food shop full. Its very wide, but lacks depth with the blind across, although you do have the option of folding down the blind. ..plus with the false floor removed its much deeper...so much so that I take my Golden Retriver and family luggage for weekend away in the boot together with plenty of room.
