daft question but may settle household argument
right then me and my love are in a bit of a dispute. the z is gonna have a transformers emblem on either gearstick or centre steering wheel. i reckon decepticon......she reckons autobot..... what do you?

thought i was doing well.....
i was feeling rather smug that i'd bagged a solid low miles z for peanuts. it was an auto tt with faded paint and needing the obvious manual conversion. i dropped lucky on a shared donor car buy, then got cracking with the work planned.na diff/ box,undersealed,suspension change ,air filter the usual. i got this far as i say feeling pretty smug that all this was achieved under the price of 1500. but then i bought dump valves and tonight a short shifter and gearstick top .then next week its the front mount . then the paint.then the wheels............yes i've just come back to reality and realised the car is gonna cost a fortune!!!!!! f**k , afterthought...big brakes!!!! can anyone do me a loan ????

i'm not moaning. but i'm quite suprised that after hunting and posting that no one seems to know what to do with the solenoids on the z 32. surely someone knows. so many in the club have rebuilt their cars. therefor this made me assume i may get help or advice. i will add that i'm useless with computers but have tried various tech pages to no avail. after subscribing to the club i have found its a great community with much more than a handfull of good folk. back on subject though. i need z einstien folk are there any?:smartass:
