Does anyone know if you can obtain new rubber seals for the side repeaters? I have some clear ones fitted and they have both split :( got the old orange ones out this afternoon and they seem to be glued on, so don't want to pull too hard in case I damage them and then can't get hold of any replacements ie; the orange ones will have to go back on! All info appreciated ;) Dave

Well as above! I had the engine rebuilt about 18 months ago but i've not been able to get it remapped since. It's currently running a basic map, written by John Dixon, but i think it's nearing time to start running these turbo's to show what they can do. Any Offers?

Seen a black zed heading east on the M8 not far outside Glasgow, around 4pm, i drove past in my black freelander 2 an gave u a beep an a wave but u were in a day dream!!:dance:

hey people. I was hoping my 1st post on here was guna just be sayin hi etc. But unfortunatly i have a bit of a problem! After years of wanting a z32 on friday i finally got 1. And i absolutly love it. However after using it the last few days. Today when i used it to pop up to the shops it wouldn't start again! Now im not sure if its the same with all z32's but when i turn the ignition on you car hear the fuel pump engage at the back of the car. Sounds like its pumping until you start the car. Now all im gettin when i try to start it is a small click. (maybe some sort of relay) and it will turn over but not fire, or if it does fire it wont stay running for more …

Another week and another problem! :) I have had my car back a few weeks, before that it was off the road for 6 months. Since then; 50% of the time it struggles around the 2 - 2.5k rpm mark, seems to clear itself then revs sluggishly. If I drop it out of gear (auto) it revs quite happily, its only once its in drive that I get these problems. Any other time it drives fine. I have not driven it since japfest due to not knowing the cause. Last year I spent thousands trying to get all the leaks sorted, it was leaking from more holes than a collinder! Now I seem to have a slight leak from the autobox. Could Low oil in the box cause the symtoms above? If not could…

Found this which looks on the face of it a bit of a bargain. What do you think? My main worries are: 1. It's a 1989 model 2. the current owner has only had it 2 months (always a worry why it's being sold on) However I've spoken to the bloke and he assures me there is nothing wrong apart from a bit of blistering on the spoiler. reckons the engine is sound. Its an non turbo Looks in really good nick in red with cream leather Can get it for £1500 Got some pics but for some reason I cant attach them, if anyone can tell me how I'll post them up

Hi guys, does anyone knows anything about this.nissan 300 zx - wide body kit on ebay?

4 wheel studs?? the things the wheel nuts hold. Had a squeak yesterday, took the centre plate off and 3 nuts fell out. Thought id best check the other front, but really that shud be fine i was thinking. Anyone spot the missing part? Slightly pissed off with the bloke who last took it off, probably just thought, **** it, cant be arsed to take everything off again and fix it. Plus now i need a new wheel nut too.

sorted!

Following a flurry of 'cleaned my car' threads, I thought I would share the first stage of detailing my car; Wet, foam, rinse, wash, dry, and the finish achieved.

I bought some STP oil additive to reduce the smoke coming from one of my exhausts, seems to of done the trick very little smoke now & only every now & then, just got to get the re-con tubs when i have the £££. & she'll be on form.

Just wondered if there is a way to make the standard dumpvalves more noisy, as i have changed my mind about fitting aftermarket ones as i want to keep her stock. Not fussed if theres not a way just wondered. thanks

Hi Guys, I have found a small rectangular electronic box under the steering wheel behind the panel above your knees. I have unplugged it and there is no apparent difference with anything and I'm just wondering what it is and its purpose? It seems to be OEM. My car is a Jspec auto TT (93), I thought it might be traffic related? Any ideas? Cheers!....

Did this. It's not brilliant, but I had some fun doing it. Can't seem to get the edges just right, bit it's a start. It's all self-taught. Not using any manuals/how-2s. My aim was to make it look a bit synthetic/teletubbies. Added a Nissan logo too. Dunno if I like it though. I did this for CK300Z last week which I was really chuffed with. It's easier on dark cars with dark backgrounds. I managed to adjust the lighting tone exactly to the new backdrop.

Last time the car went in for work doing they must have lost a wheel nut. Anyone know if it's an MOT failure? I think they are special nuts that came with my alloys but I'll take a pic and see if anyone has a spare knocking about ;)

Hi, Ive just got my remapped ecu from john and installed it with my greddy boost controller. While setting up the boost controller it has started running poor. I have turned the boost controller down and tried with it off. I didnt get to use it on hi so i was boosting at about 9 psi max ( Although the boost pressure on the boost controller and the after market boost gauge seem to differ). Problem is if i try to put my foot down the car seems to stumble ( car shakes forward and bacckwards) and then cuts out. It also has been back firing. As i put my foot down its as if the turbos start to spool up and then no power. Ran a diagnostic and came up with co…
