  1. Wow david hasselhoff aslmost sent me into a coma
  2. I think the Z32 is a far better car than the Z31. I know lots of people with many electrical gremlins in the Z31's. I'd say you'd be spending alot of money on your DD if you chose anyone of these cars. The Z32 is a reliable car but have you seen the cost of some parts especially if you go genuine nissan. I guess it all depends on your budget sometimes I wonder how i can afford to drive my S30 and I would consider them to be a very good car in terms of maintainability and cost of doing so. Another words I don't have much $$$ to my name to support a second car or DD so it all depends. Of course and I'm sure you would know this a Turbo model is gonna require a bit more care and blown turbo's can cost a bit of money.

  7. Oh btw do you know if your running a points distributor or an electronic distributor?
  8. I'd love a pair of externally adjustable illuminas does anyone know where to get them in Australia or wanna take a guess on shipping from the US? I'm guessing $300+ for shipping.
  9. Okay well how old are the spark plugs in general? If those plugs have been dropped in the past or just old they would not work the same and could misfire etc.. How about the distributor cap does it have small cracks in it look underneath and check each point aswell are they worn down? Spark leads are not likely the culprit but that could be another cause get a multimeter and check their resistance. If they are the two lower compression cylinders then do a valve adjustment first if not improvement it's more than likely the rings are shot. Fill those cylinders with some oil and redo a compression test if you have an improved reading you know the problem.
  10. You can paint the plastic ones and remove them at night time.
  11. Hi there Carl offered sound advice but I don't think replacing the carb body is necessary they should be able to re-hone the are that the throttle linkage sits in and either find a replacement linkage or machine it to fit with no leaks. Were you referring to the balance tube when you say bushings? In terms of compression you might be able to adjust the valve clearances and that could correct the problem. I haven't heard of fouling caused by badly adjusted valves I'd say that's more to do with poorly adjusted carbs. What color are the plugs? Are they black and oily or just black? Let us know.

    Bit of a Nail Biting story perhaps
  13. I don't have 1 spare . I found the Nissan Car Simulator game for PC in my archives but not sure if i should upload here as it would be copyright. Not that half the images on this site arn't already . It's not a good game but it does have old Skool Datsuns

  15. There was a nice red 260z fitted with that kit for sale not too long ago maybe a couple of years. It was based in NSW I was considering travelling up to see the car and possibly buying it but it never happened. At least it's a subtle kit.
  16. I wanted to attempt it myself aswell however i don't have the right equipment to get in and around the Nissan logo easily enough but I can at least practice on 1 of the 4 valve covers i have
  17. The testarossa is pink though I'd rather see that destroyed
