Has anybody got pics of my car?!?
Hi nick, how's things? It was dumb I know, but I partitioned my drive using partition magic. It went tits up & I ended up with an empty drive! I formatted & re-installed windows it was ages ago, now using it in a USB enclosure as a backup drive for my new iMac! At least I learned a lesson!!

New Recaros and Shiny stuff
Very nice seats! Are they leather & suede? How much were they? Was considering getting mine re-trimmed with a set of katskinz but they do look nice!! :yes:

New panels!
Good luck with it dave - I have been toying with the idea of selling as is or breaking it & everyone at work where it has been parked keeps asking what I was gonna do with it!! I guess I knew I really didnt want to part with my zed! So hopefully with the help of my mate from a bodyshop it will be better than ever! I spent around £15k when I was using it so whats another few £££ now?! :thumbup: TBH I really dont know what I would get to replace it without spending a fortune!!

New panels!
Hi Stu, Will take some pics & post up - the repair panel finishes just above the swage line & joins where the sill panel is welded to the rear 1/4 panel. Cant find a link at the moment - I bought 1 side a year ago & contacted the seller who makes them directly this time. The arch edge is a seperate part. He charges £45 per panel. Not bad as the outer sill was about £168+vat from nissan!! :bored:

Intermittent cylinder loss?
Or injector connectors - they turn green with corrosion! Check all coil pack & injector connectors!

Has anybody got pics of my car?!?
LOL! Strange request, but have any members that know me got any pics of my car from years gone by? My PC died a while back & lost all my zed meet pics :wacko: I really was going to get round to backing them up! :blush: Would love to get some back! Paul

New panels!
Well after 14 months of being sorn'd & finally getting mt a$$ in gear my panels have turned up. 2 new outer sill panels from Nissan (said a couple of weeks to turn up - was here in a few days! LOL!) 2 new rear sill repair panels & a new wheel arch repair panel from ebay. Just need to get cutting & stripping now!! :thumbup1:

false advertising perhaps?
I can see what your getting at but as you are aware a VG30DETT engine is still a VG30DETT with or without tubs attached. BTW, there are guys that have converted a VG30DE lump to run twin tubs without changing internals & just running them at 7psi boost! Z1 used to have a good write up on this! Paul
-
false advertising perhaps?
Ah - good point! So what would a VG30DETT engine be classed as without turbo's? :whistling:
-
false advertising perhaps?
So can you class it as a 300zx engine without the 300zx attached?!!? :lol:

failing due to being to low?
LOL! its great - you stick the vehicle weight in & the efficencies come out! Job done. They are a pain in the wet - the car just skids over the plates! Doh!
-
failing due to being to low?
Agreed - my ramp is quite steep & my car has been lowered (only with eibachs so not super low!) but still gets up with only a little scrape! :oops:
-
failing due to being to low?
Iv got one of those!! :D If you cant get the car on the ramp, or get the jack under the vehicle when it is on the ramp then you cannot inspect properly! It may sound harsh but that is the reality! If cars are *extremely* low then these issues may arise - I guess a by-product of modding!
-
failing due to being to low?
Hi, They cant actually fail it but if not able to get it on the ramp as it is too low then they can refuse to test it! Paul
-

-

one of my arches has gone too - will be getting a repair panel to sort that too! Depending on costs I may have a complete respray! :x: Looking forward to getting her back on the road! May treat it to a new set of leather seat covers to get the inside pretty too!!
