  1. awesome i wa thinking along taht line actually mate. just didnt knw where the hell to get one. il pick one up tomorrow need some psf anyways.
  2. my mate has a type r the shape before the current one. the one you think of when people say typeR we drove to cornwall last year, real fun drive be he seriously couldnt keep up with the zed once it got going. we were both stock at the time. close for a fair while but then the zed just gets in its stride and its gone. obviously we didnt push it too hard...i know for a fact that that even in standard form the zed surprises me sometimes. its not the feel of acceration as taht itself isnt always that impressive with teh auto box but its teh way the speedo moves, i regularly get out of the car thinking ****......corse there are faster things out there but generally they coat a damn site more to buy and run. what other 20 year old car can you blast about it enjoy cruise control. and over take like a bat out of hell. that 50 upwards range in the right gear is unholly fast, and without a keen eye on the speedo could get you in alot of trouble very fast lol. i orginally brought my zed because i liked the way it looked and it was quick. and the eccomony was far better than the camaero i wanted instead. two years later and i def want to keep it, yes it a little tepremental but its 20 years old, as much as my mrs says she dislikes it shes coming round each trip out in the sun makes her like it a little more. and when i drop her off its my time to play on the way home. all this who is quicker malarky means nothing unless its in real life , and its stupid to play this game on the street, where 90% of our cars live. if you want to know how quick the zed is its gotta go on the track, it quickly runs out of road to display its talents.
  3. recived a "new" japspeed exhaust for a memebber which is spot on. there are however afew surface spots of rust popped up like speckles. i did start to autosol them and it started to come up ok.... anyone know a more productive method for this sort of work?
  4. run a multimeter over the injector and ohm it you should get a resistance of around 13/14 i believe dont quote me on that. highter or lower and it has failed open or shut and is no longer funtioning. however check the connection itself quite common corrosion has got inside.
  5. gaz pop down to forset leasuire cycles. my mate used to be the assisant manager, sure there one or two of them still work there, they fitted a bike rack to greg howes lambo a few years back sure they can work out a zed one lol
  6. i have a pair of the clear lense peices never used.
  7. larger rolling diameter rolling disc means larger breaking surface while your right that would be optimised by a caliper that covers the full width. its something i plan to do myself. where can i get those adapter plates from though???
  8. dave i dont mean to be rude mate but im sure people where pointing you this way last week. before the oil change. as i say not being rude just saying....you know. anyways i agree maf does sound likly, many people pop off the trim under the passenger side wiper above to battery to allow excess heat to escape, doesnt normally cause issues. if you have an aftermarket air filter, as you say no aftermarket nose panel. often these will allow the water to do what steve said. im sure and some one will help to claify but if you pop off the maf connection and reset the ecu. it should idle properly, but not rev above 3k mine had this issue a few months back.better still if you coould get sum1 to datascan or conzult it this would show up.

    might be worth speaking to mr.f hes generally a fair bit cheaper.
  10. i would do the water pipes on teh back of teh block and pop the plenum off and do afew jobs under there be a waste to pull it in and out then find it drips on the over run or something equally niggly
  11. abs pump in teh back been done?
  12. i dont tink it will be the disk and teh pad, it will be where somethings not gone back toghther properly. is there an adapter plate on the calipers? maybe theyre not sittiong square
  13. could it be that the cam durations would be wrong for example the exhuast side would stay closed too long., allowing too much air into the cyldnder then the pressure would build up beyond the norm
  14. the rears in a lwb are usless for anything but children.
  15. see my "diagram" term used loosely lol. on the previous page :D
  16. well theres supposedly two explanations for the rise of the term some suggest it is an abbreviation. c.h.a.v standing for council house associated violence. the second school of thought is that it comes from the romany word meaning child. call em what you will though townies neds whatever lol we all know the tucked in socks lager swilling shit heads.
  17. do a search pretty sure this has been covered previously what you looking for mostly is a uniform pressure, between each cylnder.
  18. ive seen the new alfas in matt grey/silver looks awesome. i always liked the idea of a matt black zed tho like this one. http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/kk7/sheepygg/matte-black-300zx-538.jpg&imgrefurl=http://britishcolumbia.inetgiant.ca/Vancouver/AdDetails/More-Z32-300zx-Stuff-Surrey-30/4452631&usg=__qOSYuWxMv_np_sm8wKNMwuknZ0w=&h=768&w=1024&sz=119&hl=en&start=10&zoom=1&tbnid=GVcl1byymZwYrM:&tbnh=118&tbnw=157&ei=q0ebTevcKcOu8QPm6aXeBg&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dmatte%2Bblack%2B300zx%26hl%3Den%26biw%3D1362%26bih%3D547%26gbv%3D2%26tbm%3Disch0%2C433&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=115&vpy=242&dur=2840&hovh=194&hovw=259&tx=143&ty=85&oei=okebTdOkBY2J4gbAu_yGBw&page=2&ndsp=21&ved=1t:429,r:14,s:10&biw=1362&bih=547 go big or go home :D
  19. i believe the term your looking for my friend is chav
  20. whoops should have been right... tooka few hours but i cut it back and then compounded it and washed it ready to give it another coat when its warmer outside.
  21. i thought my spelling was bad
  22. "i do say good sir are you one of those there thieves? if you wouldnt mind awfully id rather you didnt scratch my paint work"
  23. im still undecided which way to go... wetahre to go for a very sleek modern style with the 99 spec or a stock look with an agressive twist.
  24. cheers andy that gauge is great with the alarum aswel just a shame they dont do a combined water and oil temp tahtw ould have been the ultimate
  25. might i cut it back with the 2000 the polished the hell out of it with compound. its now looking spot on. i think one more coat of laqour will finsih it off nicely.
