  1. Will I be paying £37.50 Martin as I paypal'd over £10 instead of £5?
  2. Banana arms, common issue on these. PM ZMANALEX or the other traders, they'll be able to help you source the parts
  3. Im looking to buy coilovers on payday, pretty much decided on a brand, Jerricks at Meister R Used his coilovers for years on the civic and had nothing but good things to say, so I figure go with what you know! They also retain the OEM setup with the bucket spring I have a few question's though. When it comes to lowering, how exactly does that work at the back? Is the height adjusted by the spring or is it at the shock? From reading various bits online, it would seem 25mm is the max before needing camber arms, and even that is pushing it. I know I'll need these for the perfect GEO but all in time. What should I have ideally with the coilovers to go on? Am I right in saying the toe bolts can be a pain coming undone? Any problem areas to watch out for when fitting? Thanks in advance
  4. Oh my goodness. That looks amazing! OEM+ at its best!
  5. My Zs the next tone down from yours, if you want an idea of what the orange will look like then have a flick through my build! As for the lights then ZMANALEX on here, clarke motorsport on here, Jon at emperor tuning of hes still trading. Many of the traders will also be able to get you the wiper cover, had to do the same myself!
  6. Also, in regards to the headlights, you have a prefacelift DE Z You had 03-05 DE, 05-06 then became the revup which had a slightly tweaked engine and all of the facelift upgrades, and then 06 onwards became the facelift HR! Trust me when I say get yourself a pair of facelift LED rear lights, they make a world of difference!
  7. I love my orange interior and swapped the black for it at the first chance I had. Its definitely a guilty pleasure for sure!
  8. Yep mine came with it bud, we even checked the glass for any film. Was quite surprised when he stuck the machine on it to be fair. If I applied any it would be over
  9. Oh no! It sounds like you have a severe case of zeditus! Im afraid its pretty terminal from here on in, next will come a raging fever only cured by modifications! Joking aside, the clutch thing sounds pretty normal. Two years on and ive still not perfected the Z pull away but definitely the most engaging car to drive You may find adjustment of the clutch pedal will help but its minimal. Post some pictures!
  10. I went for limo tint on the back and sides, cant post pictures as im on my phone but if you look through my build thread you'll see plenty haha. Word of warning, I believe the Z came with a factory tint on the fronts, mine did and when tested by the tinters it was right on the limit, so any darker could invite trouble!
  11. And now starts the long down hill decent into zeditus! Its terminal!
  12. ETA 7:10 traffics been naff on5nthe A27. Wait for meeeee!
  13. More pictures are needed for this! Looks a very neat way to guarantee a direct cold air flow!
  14. That shadown chroming looks amazing!! And I laughed alot at the 350z wheel. It looks like it forgot leg day haha
  15. You could always take the sensor out and clean it with brake cleaner as in theory it could get gunked up, but id issue a strong word of warning. In the states it appears that this area of the block is a weak point, with people cracking the block when undoing or redoing it up. You could purchase a new sensor from Nissan which is circa £90, but it still might not answer your worries!
  16. Id be inclined to agree with Dicky, when warm and pootling around town my guage indicates 30psi, and sat at 70mph in 6th (2500rpm) its around 50-55psi. On a hot idle it'll sit around the 20 mark. It has been said though that the oil guage is more a paranoia guage, with often inaccurate readings. If you want peace of mind, take it to a garage and get them to plug a independent pressure guage directly for a true reading. This will tell you straight away whether you can relax or worry Do be careful with the dipsticks, theyre a real pain in the ass to check. I check mine every single time before a long drive. But then Im an ex Honda owner so high consumption is something im acutely aware of
  17. Loved chappie, especially the scene with Hugh Jackman near the end. "You're a very badman, and now chappies going to teach you a lesson!" Machines that could lift a car or truck, scale a wall, with human emotions. Yeah thats not going to end well when you've got a half ton machine throwing a paddy. I like the idea of augmentation, Id happily have a terminator body if it meant I could retain my human mind inside! But that presents another set of issues! Humans, the most complicated creatures.
  18. What is the forcast? My phone is saying it will be cloudy with patches of sun!

  23. If Ian has one and you still have the other, can you put one by as I know someone who may want one! Ok well at least we have some times now. Have we decided on a meeting point so we can all roll in together?
