Re: 280zx Spare Wheel Cover

I have a really tidy spare wheel cover but no sign of a sticker on it anywhere. Didn't even know they had one :) good luck

Put you Rego plate into this site and it will tell you exactly what you will be paying.

From what I can tell searching cars that I own none have gone up only modern cars have gone down and I think there is still Classic Rego for cars older than 40 years

I have used several different oils I even brought some from the Z store that I'm using currently. But I think its a bit thick so response is a bit slow. I am going to swap back to some motorbike front fork oil that was thinner and see if that is better.

I hope that helps.

They are quite simple but make sure you have no vacuumed leaks etheir cos that will mess with your ratios. Swift auto refuse to be of any help to anybody with hitachi su's because they aren't "real" su's. And ar also really rude about it I wouldn't recommend them to anyone
