Courtesy Nissan Manual Gearbox
Like Baz said, if customs see it (hard to miss!) they'll slap about 25% on including handling charges etc. You can fit a lot of used boxes for that money.

Another newbie MPG question
I can get mine down to 4mpg with a heavy right foot and full boost around town :rofl:

Parts suppliers... Difficult to contact.
Luke @ Z Centre is always engaged but keep trying. Mike @ MJP has been pretty busy lately but both of them are pretty good usually. Not sure exactly what parts it is you need but as they're Nissan bits they're likely to be pricey. You can get a complete front and rear upgraded Whiteline Anti-roll bar kit from Demon Tweeks for about £185

Another newbie MPG question
You'll get about 25mpg on the motorway and somewhere between 13 to 20 round town depending how you drive.

PMSL comment in the pub the other night
I had a taxi driver ask me what the car was on my drive the other week. He kept saying what a gorgeous car it was and I said well that's because I've spent thousands on it and put lots of work into it over 7 years. Told him a few specs etc and he was like "Wow!" "Awesome!" etc Then he came out with "They're not worth much now though, you should sell it" :confused: What a :xxx: LOL

reality check needed here....
Take it off the road for a while like I have. I should have sold it a year ago but I've spent so much time and money on it I refuse to do it when I know I'd want another Z when I was back in the money. If you've got a garage or drive you might even be able to get away without taxing and insuring it and if the car is paid for then it's costing you nothing. Get a runabout for a couple of hundred quid if you need another car - the savings in Z petrol will pay for that in a couple of weeks.

I smell petrol (do you)
How can the type of petrol you use cause a smell?! :rofl: All petrol smells the same and if you can smell it it's leaking out plain and simple! If it's a cold day the pipes will contract and make leaks appear. If it's bad enough to be making you feel sick you need to get it sorted before the car goes up in flames! Do a search on here for fuel leaks and you'll get loads of info. The most common one is under the fuel pressure regulator in the pic above but you need to tighten all the clips on the fuel lines. You won't see the leak as it evaporates so quickly so put talc on the pipes before you start it up and you'll see where it is. Easiest fix is to buy one of Smithy's braided fuel line kits as it replaces most of the joins and will sort out your problem once and for all.

Rear Tailgate Skin - Have you got one?
The only place that will have done a few will be Z Centre's bodyshop in Nottingham. Mine was done at PPS but he's not got a bodyshop anymore :(

No more smoke!
Yes they're not from Nissan although they look identical :) It was turbo time last year and i've been getting bad smoke on one side after a thrash ever since :( Grasshopper took so long to pay for the re-con and to refit them that I doubt the warranty stands now. Plus a huge job to change :( Which side can be done with engine in? It's drivers side thats smoking.
-
No more smoke!
Mine were clogged up and only been on about 3000 miles. MJP are doing PCV's for about £3.50 each now so hardly worth the effort but I'll do it now I've got a spare set. It's much better but I did get some smoke back today after a good thrashing :( Maybe it is still the turbo seal :cry:
