255/40/19 will they fit on the rear?
No you will need bigger wheels :D ;) They will fit fine and you could go a bit wider in fact.

Gearbox problems
These boxes are known for problems with the synchro's on the higher gears. Is it crunching or just not engaging? Don't think it will be the clutch if it's fine in other gears so probably the box is on its way out :(

Just buy one! Running costs are irrelevant - I can't afford a Z but I've still got one :D :rofl:

Front tyre wear AGAIN
I've just got camber arms but the tension rod bushes were replaced with poly ones a couple of years ago. I was told one of the track rod ends was worn and I have those ready to go on but would one being worn cause both tyres to wear so bad in such a short time? The wear is so far out on the edge of the tyre that it's hardly visible on the tread itself but on full lock I can now see it's through the metal again. Total waste as the tyre is like new :(

Front tyre wear AGAIN
I've had problems with severe front inside edge tyre wear ever since lowering and fitting 18's. Last summer I fitted adjustable camber arms and had it adjusted and laser aligned to the Nissan factory specs. Within a couple of thousand miles I'm gutted to find another set of tyres down to the metal on the inside edge. Presuming it was setup correctly is there anything else could be causing this? It's costing me £250 a time experimenting at the mo! :rant:

tt injectors in an n/a
Just noticed you're in Leeds? I have a set of injectors out of my old TT engine knocking about at my parents in Leeds. I don't know if they would still be OK to use after hanging around for a year without use but they're yours for some beer money if you want them :duffer: Chris.

Seriouse Vibration, Braking At Speed
Definately the tension rod bushes are shot. If it was warped disks you would feel it at slow speeds and it certainly wouldn't show up when you're not braking. You can get new uprated bushes from Z Centre or Nissan ones from MJP in the traders section on here. They're about £45 I seem to remember.

Where would this go ??? cheaper than welding one ?
Just but BOV's that come with a fitting kit and they'll go where the recircs are without one of those pipes. If you want to fit them in the engine bay then buy a nice shiny hard pipe kit off one of the traders on here.

Converting odometer
I suppose it depends on whether you have a record of the mileage on the log book or MOT... I just put a convertor on mine and alterered the clocks to the equivalent miles so it reads correctly. I don't think anyone is that bothered about the mileage on these cars as they're so old and half of them have had a new engine or rebuild at some stage. Every import seems to arrive with 30K Km on the clock anyway! ;)
