I'm 99% sure this is exactly what I pulled off mine about 6 months ago, along with the small black lower bumper corner piece. I'd read online it's the evap canister shield, but I could be wrong there.

Located at PH2: Perthshire

Where are you located as there may be a bracket that’s is intact on the rear that mine has rusted away😂 drivers side rear behind wheel arch bolts up next to exhaust bracket and the bumper and a plastic tray bolt to it added a pic of the rusted thing of a bracket to the comment

Need it replacing tho as it needs to go for an MOT it drives fine and what not anyway but just don’t like knowing about it and not replacing it if I can

I'd say you've not got a rusted bracket you have some remains 🤣 If nothing has fallen off, nothing is rattling, the car drives straight and safe.... pull off what's left, throw it in the bin, and carry on driving.

Great to see her back on the road Keith looking so good.

I’ve got a very rusted bracket on the right side rear behind the wheel arch, it bolts up near the exhaust bracket and to the bottom corner of the bumper and also has a plastic cover that bolts to it i need the part number or name of it if someone can please help I have some pics but you can barely see as it’s extremely rusted

A good day, mine passed too! First since sep 2023. Took it out for a blast around the Andover villages, boy I’ve missed it.

I’m after a part number for something I can’t even make out what it is now it’s rusted so bad, it’s on the rear drivers side just being the wheel well, it bolts up near the exhaust bracket and goes all the way down to the bottom of the bumper and it hold the bottom corner of the bumper and a plastic plate on can someone help me please

Decent size Club Stand. Many thanks guys and girls! My Z which had been resting for over a year passed the mot today. I will definitely turn up to this event 😂

Phone castle combe circuit direct, they might be able to sort something out for you👍

Been super busy with boring life stuff and not had much time for the zed but she's taking shape now. Still waiting on some sill patches and that's the underside pretty much done. Many new parts and much refreshing of old stuff, can believe the price of standard parts on these cars! Having promised myself I wouldn't get back into drifting and heading over to the initiate show I've been ordering bits again 🙄

Dang just missed this (Friday). Just up the road, too.

Mention @ZMANALEX he might be able to help

Anyone know where I could get 2 more of these repair panels?

So, I'm organising an S12 meet in July, going to try and get at least 20 S12's in the same place : ) And after that she'll be up for sale, I'm thinking offers over £20k including all the spares I've collected including wheels and tyres. That might seem high but it's way less than has gone into the build. I need the cash as we're moving house, plus I'm losing my storage for her. Meet is 19th July.... :,( One of our Z's might go as well, but not yet.......

ZMANALEX... thanks mates I really appreciate that I'll message you privately now and we can sort it out from there. Keith D... agreed ahah

Can’t seem to figure out how to do it. thank you

Think the car sold this week shy of 50k most likely. Cant see it anywhere on autotrader or ebay. Well seems to be a market there 😂. At 5k margin i reckon. The discounted duty is definitely working.

Those buggers look fit for the bin

Sealant around the seals is not a good plan. You should be looking to find the root cause and not carrying out a bodge. The warping is not pretty, but with a good ribbed gasket and proper sealant then I would not expect an external oil leak, however, best to replace them. If a customer of mine returned these to me, my initial reaction would be that they have been overtorqued and possibly also the tightening procedure may not have been followed, however, as a good will gesture, I would replace them this one time free of charge. It concerns me more that you are having persistent oil entering the spark plug tube apertures, which has got to be more than just a coincidence, which leads me to come to the conclusion that if the seals are good and the tubes are good and all things being equal, then you may have an internal crack on the cyl head/heads, which I have seen on a few occasions. Might be time to pull those heads and get them to a machine shop. Nothing more to add than to wish you Good Luck.

The warping is worse than the photo shows, I followed the correct procedure and torque the first time I replaced these. Second time by the looks they may have been overtightened and not allowing for expansion possibly? I'll give it one last go I think following the procedure to a T, and using sealant all the way around the mating face on the head. I can't see any damage to the spark plug tubes so I'll try using sealant for those as well. If it fail again soon which is likely in all honestly I'll bite the bullet and get the ally covers. Thanks for your help and input mate 👍

Yeah mate, premier inn Chippenham 👍 Going up Friday early so it's a nice chilled day
