ok, me and my step-dad are gonna do the suspension (struts and coils) our self, only thing is, we dont know how to compress the coils, i mean he can bring it to work and compress em there, and wire them so they stay compressed, but thats timley and dont know how fool proof that would be. i know we need a coil compressor, but dont know where we could access one, or possably buy one?
ok and i think the master cylinder is gone on the clutch, i mean, the fluid is all gone, i was wondering if its a hard job to complete, and how much a new master cylinder costs? becuase i know the clutch is fine becuase its a brand new clutch clywheel etc, just put in and only driven a few times on it, so i know its not burnt out (we already checked that) it seeems just to be leakin out of the cylinder.
if anyone knows at all, please reply or pm me, thank you very much.

Check with your local auto parts stores. A lot of them will rent out tools and may have a spring compressor to rent as well.
Your loss of fluid is likely to failure of the clutch master, slave, or hydraulic line to the slave. If the master is leaking you'll have fluid leaking inside your car, so check the fire wall behind the clutch pedal. If your slave or line is leaking you'll probably have fluid hitting the ground. Any of these is fairly easy to replace. Just make sure to bleed the system well after replacing them.
Have fun working on your Z!

at BAP-GEON a clutch Master Cylinder is $33.00
and the slave is $16.00 I will be replacing both next weekend
do not screw around with the springs unless you have the RIGHT tools. it can tear fingers and hands off in an instant and cutting that wire will be pretty impressive as well. please do it right or have it done professionally
