After over 20 years of owning a Z32 300ZX TT of which over half of it the car has been in bits as a "project" I've come to a time in my life where I have the time, space, but not so much money to continue fixing it. I have/had a UK Z32 manual; but the UK weather rotted most of the chassis and...

Im currently in the middle of reshelling a car. My UK old car had a new windscreen put in and I want to transfer it to my "newer" Jap chassis because its newer and blue tint. Is there a demand for selling my Jap windscreen? Its in near perfect condition?

Im on a very tight budget and my turbos need a rebuild. I can't afford to buy new ones and to have them rebuilt professionally will probably cost me £700 anyway so I am thinking of doing it myself. Has any one tried this before?

I am losing oil but its because of the turbos. The engine is solid, 88mm forged pistons, Over sized metal head gasket, race hardened big and little end bearings. I did a compression test and they are all between 168-172psi, ( drop in standard compression I put down to over sized pistons and...

Thanks Rob, I need all the help I can get, I know alot about the Z32 engine but I know nothing about turbos. My turbos need replacing (becuase I pushed them too hard) and are probably the weak link in my engine. Do you have any recomendations of a good place to look for them? Stuart

Im looking for a pair of turbos but dont want to spend stupid money, where is a good place to look. Im wanting something better than standard, what about T28? Thoughts? Stuart.

I had a problem with the head gasket, losting oil in to the water, that has been resolved by replacing the gasket., but there are still specs of oil in the water, but these are very small specs left after I sorted the gasket and did an engine flush. Should do another engine flush and drive it...

Does any one have any idea what could be causing this? People keep telling me valve seals, but the have been replaced. I did a compression test and all seems very good and even. I removed spakplugs and they are the perfect colour, like a light chocolate brown colour. I thought if I had...

for about 400bhp you are probably looking at the following. larger injectors, Remap ecu. forged pistons, (and all the cost of reboring, new bearings) NA oil squirters, Uprated turbos (even with stock size you will need upraded internals) turbo boost controller. Larger intercoolers...

No I didnt get that done as cash was short etc. When I did up my I spent about 75% on replacement items like, engine mounts, gaskets, wire loom, injector seals, NA squirters etc than actual mods. My cash ran out. However Im going to get 2 heads from ebay and build them up over a year or so...

Valve oil seals have been replaced. Twice. When I took the engine apart the back of the valves where clean as a whistle and dry as a bone.

I thought white smoke is water smoke. Black/blue is oil and grey is fuel. The thing is twice I have got the block, rebored, new pistons and rings and still that side of the engine smoked. I have have done a full PCV replacement twice and still just the driver side smoked. I must have...

I thought I was done with my car but Im losing oil and it looks like its going in to the water. Im looking for any one and everyones thoughts and advice on this its not just a Z32 issue but a general engine one now. Long story short. Got car, drivers side always smoked very slighly, white...
