Car covers, myths and legends
Joel has a garage which I think he's going to have extended soon. Sometimes I throw a dust sheet on mine. My garage is integral so is super super dry and never really that cold in winter. But storing a car in a damp garage is worse than storing it outside IMO.

strange z for sale
Absolutely revolting. Been posted many times. The cage is as comical as the rest of the car.

That's a shame Dave! Would have been good to have you there. Shame there aren't any canals in Dorset, you could have made an appearance! Have a great holiday - I'm sure we'll catch up later in the year. Good to see you today! :)

Should we have had a trophy for the biggest oil slick left? Mondo, Exxon Valdez has nothing on you! :p

I guess I was the only person who didn't get burnt! I'm the colour of turd now though! :lol:

What did you do to your zed today?
Yeah I'd say it was! Very good, both tone and finish. Never going to get it spot-on as the materials are different, but it's damn close and better than Nissan's effort!

I'm picking Jimmer up about 7/7.30. We should be up there around 9.30 I'd imagine. Z cleaned and fuelled and ready to go! :D

If you must, try http://www.fancyplates.com Personally think they're a little on the tacky side.

Z broken down - first time ever!
No, it's a factory manual.

Thanks dude. Might try and get a brand new one from Nissan tomorrow or Saturday.

Yeah, but yours cranked. It was pretty hot earlier and any form of engine heat accompanied with ambient heat is likely to screw up an already failing relay (I'd have thought anyway - I can't think of what else it would be unless it was a starter solenoid, but I didn't hear the relay click to begin with).
-
Z broken down - first time ever!
Indeed, however I'd still say it's done remarkably well for the last decade! Been an awesome car and if the relay is the only thing to go wrong in the last 10 years, I'm a lucky *******! :)

Possibly, however, it re-started when it was hot just now, but the driver's side wing area would have been cool as it's had airflow around it cooling the area where the starter relay is sited. When it was parked at my folks', the sun was beating down on that part of the car where the relay is. I had this issue on Vauxhalls of old, except it was for the fuel pump relay - relays do the same things when they start to go wrong.
-
Z broken down - first time ever!
Haha! I'm convinced it's now the relay. The drivers side had been parked in the sun for a few hours (car lives in the garage) and relays do not like getting hot when they're on their way out. I'll get another one. It's now back home in the garage, I've gotten the onset of a migraine, so laying low until tomorrow. I started it up again once I'd gotten home and it was fine, although I noticed a momentary pause (almost not noticeable) before the starter engaged which is why I think it's the relay that's gone south. Other than fitting the rear coilovers last weekend, no and as for the interior, not for a good 6 months, no.

It's just started....all by itself! How odd...Wonder if it was the relay - gotten hot as the car has been out in the sun, cooled down and is now working. I can take it back home and jack it up!
-
Z broken down - first time ever!
No, absolutely nothing. OK, will try that! Passenger side isn't it?
-
Z broken down - first time ever!
No, it's as if the starter has zero feed. I am convinced it's the immobiliser though. It acts as if the immobiliser is been disengaged but has failed leaving the power to the starter relay off. What was wrong with your wiring?
