Hi I have a tappy lifter on the near side bank, i have removed and cleaned them all but it still there. Fine on idle but when reving the engine the tapping oocurs. Just wondering if there is a way of identifying which lifter is the culprit so i can replace the check valve or am i wasting my...

Hi All Looking at getting my z back on the road. I have an issue which i am looking at. Currently there are 2 differing sizes of injectors on each bank. I found out they were different sizes when i sent them to be cleaned. Obviously been like it since i have bought it :unsure: who would do...

Update All seems to have gone well with this stuff, except that i forgot to go around the hole were the corner bolt goes through in the boot so when the hose came out to test it leaked through there, 'a note to others'. But all in all seems to have done the trick. Anyone else needs to do this...

Quagmire PM me email address

bit thin 2.5mm not thick enough, could double it up, but not cost effective i think. i'll post back to let you know how the rubber in a tube went!!!

300zx z31 'count me in'

To be honest quagmire, i'd probably save your pennies go the whole hog and swap the lot, drop a turbo, manual lump in. If you need parts talk to Ken at ZXS he should be able to square somethin away for ya. Google him it should give you a number. He also advertises on ebay search z31. If you...
