Hi guys, I have just aquired my life-time dream car, 1991 200sx.
can anyone tell me how to remove the gear lever knob, the gearbox top seal has been damaged by a gear-lock.
- rear shocks are soft and need replacing, where can I get new ones that do not cost the earth from the agents?
Any advise will be much appriciated
thanks
Andrew

It doesnt come off easy unless its been off before. Nissan used some super awesome glue on it, it takes alot of persuation to get it off.
You can get Koni adjustable dampers from Koni SA. +-R1700ea when I got mine or you can get some KYB's for the S13 as well which were cheaper. I had found a few places that could get the KYB's.
Depends on what you use your car for, you may not be happy with coilovers for a daily street driver.
