Seat question
I'd like to have your opinion about my situation. My seats are torn and i need new covers. I have few options: either take it to tailor who charges 250€ (over 300$) per seat. Propably very good quality OR order new covers from Banzai (240$ 2 seats PLUS foams 120/seat) and try to tinker them. Tailor said that if you try to install new covers with old stuffings, it looks bad. BUT i've read that with new stuffings, long guys (like me) wont fit in to the cockpit anymore. So....what would you do?

Interior Worth Saving?
I had similar situatin, my Z was a smoker car so it smelled like s*it, MSA panels are much sturdier but they are a bit too big, so you have to cut the extra off. Cover every panel (from behind) with Dynomat or similar if you want to quiet down the car.

Does this look like a coolant leak?
Its a head gasket leak, i recommend you should change it asap. Also make sure the head aint warped. Mine was.

BD inner hatch weatherstrip
Package arrived last friday, i had to wait till monday to get it. BUT...... It was worth the wait. It fits very nicely and seems to be made of tougher material than MSA ones. I recommend!

Noisy differential
It drags the same, with or without drums on place. Maybe i'll start there first. Is it a big operation and are any special tools required?

Ever seen a 240Z with a backseat?

Noisy differential
Its not, 3/4 rotation goes okay (a bit of draggy though) but then the last 1/4 feels kinda tough. I dont know how to explain it better. Should they spin uber-easy when on air?
