Brake Upgrade
Pretty sure that z33 brembos are 330mm. Some 345 discs will fit if the design on the wheel allows it. How much free space is behind your wheel.

No COTM in March.
Real shame this, now that the weathers improving hopefully more will be taking pictures and entering them.

Lets get a sneeky march meet sorted
As many of you know my intention was to get a meet going in march in the Dorset area, most likely a cruise out from Swanage to Poole. with some fairly good weather atm, I suggest are hash of this non starter... http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?160093-upcoming-south-central-mini-meet-and-cruise&highlight=swanage So who's up for it and what sort of dates would be good? I am thinking a Sunday. Open to suggestions of modifications to that plan as well.

March Newsletter
Hi guys for some reason a few of you it spits back the PM apparently you don't wish to receive PM's, possibly because were not "friends" that's a bug to be worked through but hey. So anyways.... To overcome this and make it available to Regis, here is this months: Hi guys, So March is here, where an earth did that come from? Longer days are coming and the last few days at least have seen some good weather. The long term forecast seems to be for this current fog/overcast conditions mixed with sunny days to continue through this month. so maybe we can squeeze something in before the end of the month, the previous plan was to have a meet going through from Swanage. I’ll fire up a topic in the south central forum after this has gone out and we can discuss some options for dates etc. So what's new? Well currently I think most of us are still SORN, mine certainly only came off that on Friday ready for this weekend. So obviously very little is going on. I've personally got a few little projects on the go which will be coming up on here as they happen. As a side note to that if you are doing things track days, cruises, or a local meet that's coming up please let me know so I can publish this, even if it’s afterwards to share some pics with other members. Equally if your struggling to meet your deadline for getting things sorted before the spring let me know and we will try to drum up some help if you so wish.... :D A meet has been drawn to my attention, which can be viewed here. It’s pitched to be fairly big, limited details at present but I will keep you updated. Current set date is May 24-26th Current details are here; http://bournemouthwheels.co.uk/whats-on/ Equally this one was brought to my attention by Sdriver73, on Easter Monday. Unfortunately I won’t be in attendance as I’m on call and my parents are coming over to England to stay with us, so im otherwise busy. Again I’ll pop that up as a thread in the south central zone and try to drum up an attendance list. Link for the event is here; http://www.springvehiclemeetandautojumble.co.uk/ That is really about it at present, if you have anything extra to add for us just give me a PM Happy Zeding.

Gearbox refitting help
Or it's jammed up tight on it so it turns...iirc the splined section of the clutch plate is an inch or so thick. If it's 2cms even all the way round your likely .5 of a cm into the clutch plate. Just keep wiggling and persisting eventually it will just go clunk. Then you will be wondering what all the fuss was about.

Tailgate perspex strip part number help
Mjp sells them and the price is very competitive, certainly cheaper than zcentre.

Gearbox refitting help
It can be a real *******. Me and Hellraiser struggled like hell with one once and ended up taking it back out the car to check everything. This was midnight and it was 3am before the box was finally home, there was nothing wrong with it we just had to try harder. Mine was also a pita, the first time. My father in law ended up getting hold of it and just manhandling it in, then we did the bolt trick we did on when I did it with Hellraiser. The second time we dropped the engine onto the box and it literally fell in, we used the old bolt trick to get it home the clunk of it going home was heard pretty quick and remember us both being like ey? Is that it? That can be it already.... The one thing I would say it make sure the clutch is aligned properly.

De-Cat Help..... please?
That's seems a bit doom and gloom. My cars a 90 grey import so is tested as a precat there is no reason why a healthy vg30 shouldn't pass a precat test, if it doesn't then we need to be looking at why in the first place, equally larger turbos and injectors shouldn't increase emmissions at idle as per the test.

Lol, I'd be knackered too these days. My bmx is collecting dust

Haha, lower that saddle immediately! Bmxs are not Made to be sat down on, the saddle is only there for when your stationary and to soften the blow when it bounces up between your legs. Once your muscles adapt though you will be surprised how quick and agile they are. You will however wreck your knees lol.

If you can't get it out the plenum off you won't be getting it out till the engine has to come out haha. Really shouldn't be that bad if your reasonable spanner savy.

Really P***ed
Hrm, he fact that you've had discussion with jeff surrounding Pcv if they are culprit they are so cheap through MJP. As for the rust well that's life I guess, learn to weld you will save serious cash and gain a life skill.
