aftermarket gauge help
hi all i've just bought a new set of mechnical gauges for the z (oil,boost,water temp) i'm a little concerned about the water temp one as it has 1/2" npt fitting on the end will this go through the bulkhead anywhere on the drivers side? also does any one do a top hose adaptor to take 1/2" npt? though i must say i've got 2 smaller adaptors but not sure what size or thread they are all i can say is one is tapered thanks for any help in advance kev

Changing brake master cylinder
hi bud i did mine today it's not to bad you just undo the 2 brake pipes i recommend a brake pipe union spanner for that then there are 2 12mm bolts on the servo holding it on i had to unbolt the cruise controll solenoid to get a little more space, i fitted new pistons seals in mine a lot cheaper than a new cylinder, took me about 1.5 hrs then had to bleed the brakes through to remove air from the system hth kev

Clutch
as far as i know they are the same but if your thinking of buying one from the states dont forget as it's heavy postage will be a fortune plus you will have to pay import tax and vat when it comes into the country your best bet is contact the traders on here
