update on my swb restoration
Very nice, is some of that from the JDM Planet place you mentioned? Will order some things myself if you're happy with them, did the shipping take long?

NZR - How easy is it to change an Almera timing chain?
I love how google always brings me back here in the end! Need to sort this on the woman's new shed - N16 SX 1.5. The kits are very expensive, will nissan supply just the chain? Everything else looks fine

What did you do to your zed today?
Seats are finally back in! Very bright out so here's the best I can do: Found a better one from a Japanese ad:

What did you do to your zed today?
Thanks for the tip. Capital Seating have the upper section listed? It's the bolsters I can't find on their site - http://www.capitalseating.co.uk/productdetail.asp?pid=630&type=s&appgrpid=&appid=&rid=61 It's the outer bolster that's worse, but the thread over it is very thin and I want to keep the seats original, so not sure what to do! Lucky I kept it in then!

What did you do to your zed today?
Recaros are out, absolute pain of a job which took about two hours! Turns out my Clifford system was installed under the seat - no wonder it took him so long. Driver's seat is very shabby on the outer side so I'm going to swap them around tomorrow. I would put in new foam but I don't think I'll be able to get more of that material :( Unfortunately one of the belt pretensioner clips was a casualty as I thought it was just a standard cable tie. And look what I found under the passenger seat!

Too many knobs...
Thanks, let me know what you think when you get it. And definitely let me know if you're visiting Zone! Haha

Anywhere you'd recommend? There's a few things I'd like from Z32 Zone but it doesn't look like they speak English!

Rust advice
Also says it hasn't been modified so it won't have 280BHP.

Thanks to rich20
And hopefully some useful causes too! Might get the spoiler resprayed and reglued and invest in an engine hoist.

Thanks to rich20
Just wanted to give a big thank you to rich20, as he's helped me out in a massive way. Thanks solely to him providing me with his registration tax receipt, my appeal has been successful! €630 refund due from the €1,602 original payment :D Wouldn't have had a hope without you mate, needless to say I owe you a pint or ten!

Windows 10 has arrived !
That kinda shows what I meant about them missing the point with the tile interface. I like it, but I have to go to the desktop to do pretty much anything. Why bother?

Windows 10 has arrived !
Interested to see what it's like - I actually found Windows 8 to be better than previous releases, although I think they totally missed the point with the tile interface. Still use Linux though.

Insurance
Well the sexism clearly hasn't stopped if they want an extra €2,000 to name me on her policy! I don't think there's much hope of her getting on the Z with a provisional license and no experience though.

Insurance
I'll sort something cheers for the help. Things are just getting annoying now. I have options - expensive but they'll do if it comes to it. The bigger problem is no other underwriter will allow me to drive other cars due to my age! I have this benefit at the moment, driving a shed, yet I can't get it with a Z. Missus just got a small car, so we'd manage with me as a named driver on it and insured on my Z. She has a provisional license and has never held insurance. I have a full license and NCB for three years. Most of them want an extra €2,000 or so to stick me on her policy!

Two questions...
If the fuel pump is very loud when you turn on the ignition, that's a clue. I've never noticed it on my Z so it can't be too loud normally.

Another Prospective Irish member
That's a start, but the running and maintenance costs still! Especially if they're all TTs.
