    Flat top pistons

    Set of flat top pistons and rods from an L28. I bought them recently from Jonbills but I’m not likely to be needing them anytime soon and could do with the space and recouping some funds towards some new wheels. I’ve given them a quick clean and they seem in decent shape. Will need a set of...

    Can anyone recommend the best place for a new rubber windscreen seal for a 77 260Z? I would want to retain the silver inlay trim, ideally with a replacement for that part too if that’s possible. I’ve seen a few seals on eBay, shipping from Thailand, but no idea about quality or fit. Have...

    Rota Wheel differences

    Can anyone tell me the difference between the Rota RBX and RBR models. I appreciate the RBX is available in 9J and 9.5J width whilst the RBR are narrower, my question relates more to actual spoke design...they look remarkably similar, but are they actually the same spoke design.

    Reading / Interpreting Dyno Charts

    I have recently had a few little jobs completed on my 260Z and part of the work was little rolling road session. I am interested to know how to “read” the dyno charts and maybe what the charts tell us. I am not looking to chase BHP necessarily as the car will never see a track, but it would be...

    Triple DCOE heat shield

    I am looking at making a heat shield to fit underneath the Webers. The main concern is to protect against any drops of fuel landing on the hot manifold. The actual effectiveness against heat soak is less of a concern. I have looked at a couple of ready made designs and I am not entirely...

    Which wheels?

    Just for a little fun I am toying with treating the Z to some new wheels. My car has one off rear arches, so I need quite a wide rear wheel but less so at the front. Currently I have 17x10 rears and 17x8 fronts both ET0 but with 25mm spacers all round. I’d like to lose the spacers and run a...
