    Well in just over 24 hours the ceremony begins.

    Getting married and I am feeling strangely content in the feeling. Everything has been sorted. All the bits and pieces bought. Just got to go to the venue today and lay out all the tables and dressing. Funny I thought I would be more nervous about it.

    Novel cars you have previously owned.

    Ok we all love our Zeds (or we wouldn't be here), but have any of you owned something a bit quirky, or an old banger which you just couldn't help loving. Personally I have had a couple where I just didn't care and thought I would have a laugh with. First off was my old Vauxhall Cavalier 2.0 16V...

    Underdrive/Crank pulley

    Are they the same for the Z31 and Z32? They look it but cannot get my hands on a Z32 one to double check. Cheers

    What causes carbonisation on piston and valve faces!

    As stated in the title. I was just wondering how I can avoid it happening in the future as I have just spent two days cleaning my valves from it. Mind you there was 80,000 miles and 22 years of build up on them. Cheers

    Head Gaskets

    After some reserch I have found out that Payen head gaskets are merely Fel-pro head gaskets in disguise (different packaging same gasket). Are they recommended? I am hoping to put them on my 300ZX Z31 Turbo when it goes back together and will be upping the boost a little to around 8-10 P.S.I. so...

    Good thing too.

    Z31 Master Cylinder same as Z32.

    Does anyone know if the brake master cylinder from a Z32 can be used on a 1987 Z31 Turbo. Mine looks as if its leaking and it would be easier getting one from a Z32 thats being broken. Cheers Neal

    Hi there. As some of you may be aware I am doing an engine bay restoration of my 300ZX Turbo. Now all the vacuum hoses are starting to look a bit tired and in an effort to eliminate future problems I want to replace themn all. I have looked high and low, but for the life of me cannot find...

    Head Bolts

    Can the head bolts be re-used on a 22 year old engine. I know sometimes they can. If not does anyone know how much a full set for both banks would set you back and the best place to get them from (Mr.F I am expecting) Cheers

    Removing the Dizzy.

    I have undone the three bolts holding the dizzy onto the rocker head, but short of giving it the biggun it wont pull out. Is there something I am missing. Cheers

    Messing with Photoshop.

    I have never really been one to be an expert at using photoshop. More just using it to tweak pictures than anything major. Now I have always been told (as have others) that the Z31 always reminds people of the Kitt in Knight rider. Now thanks to a picture kindly knicked of datsun300 (Cheers...

    Useful website for restoration projects.

    Was recommemded this place by a local (and very reputable) tuning shop near me. Will give them a go and see what they are like, but looking at the products and prices they seem to have a good selection and reasonably priced LINK

    Couple of technical questions.

    First off is there a definative guide on how to change the cambelt on a Z31 turbo. If so what parts are needed (i.e. belt pulleys, tensioners etc etc) and could I have the guide. There seems to be a lot of conflicting versions out there. Second would the rocker head (complete with cams, cam...
