Im looking to underseal the zed again and thinking of going back to bare metal But after some sanding back under the wheel arches on the chassis There seems to be a yellow rubberised paint thats on the steel under the paint What is this stuff? Is it painted on seam sealer? Should i be removing this or leave it on? Is it only in the arches or is it all over the underside

Hi guys enybody can tell me this turbos will be good for vg30dett? any opinion http://www.ebay.com/itm/T04E-T3-T4-63-A-R-57-TRIM-TURBO-TURBOCHARGER-COMPRESSOR-400-HP-BOOST-STAGE-III-/190627430922

just seen this on Facebook guys looking to swap or sell. personally i love the whole SCI-FI / Mad max theme on any car but never seen it done to a zed. and i think it looks really cool. unique to say the least.

This could be a very obvious question but which series of zed is the best mechanically electrically and best for the user? Excluding the 1999 spec.

Hi all, hopefully someone can help. I have searched and have a few ideas but just want to see whether there are any new fresh ideas from what I have read. On the way back out of London yesterday I noticed that when in gear it was idling a little high...but more strangely when I put it into N or P it rose to nearly 3000rpm, which made changing into gear somewhat sudden. I pulled over, revved a little and it fell down to under 1000 when idling but later it happened again. Not sure whether the next issue has anything to do with it, but I took it to get washed and when tried starting her again after pulling up (not had any water on her at this point) it wouldn't s…

Hi there everyone!! last night when I got off a ride with the Z I noticed the original keychain I got when I bought the car in Italy by the dealer has broken. They don´t have this kecychain from Nissan dealer in Rome anymore. So this made me wonder; when you look for Nissan Keychains on Ebay or internet you get thousands of results from China, US...but I never seen a original dealer keychain like the ones they give you when you buy your car brand new. Say for example you buy a Nissan new at Norton way Nissan at Hertfordshire. Usually they sometimes give you a nice kecychain with the dealer´s logo on it. Does anyone knows if any Nissan dealer sells these keychain?? in …

Hi everyone, been away for a while concentrating on family and work for a while as the Z funds ran dry... I managed to procure an original Nissan Consult unit and have successfully repaired it over the past month or so.... If anyone locally needs to use it then let me know if I can help..... and you can either pop round or I maybe able to come to you.... Getting ready to swap out the faulty auto box, transmission ECU and prop shaft when the weather picks up.... Paint maybe a while off yet.......

Hey been ages since I was last on here as got rid of my z but looking at getting a new one preferably a SWB manual twin turbo and price depends on condition as happy to do a bit of work on it. Was just wondering if any of you guys knew this z and had and thoughts. Price seems steep for a car with an MOT failed and high miles. But maybe things have changed. http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/300zx-z32-turbo-manual-stillen-replica-SWB-/282352344475?hash=item41bd82dd9b%3Ag%3AGEcAAOSw2xRYbd5D&_trkparms=pageci%253A4fe89cad-eeb3-11e6-8f88-74dbd1807b99%257Cparentrq%253A2270233915a0a6228619f4b7fffd6fa2%257Ciid%253A14

My z with 750cc injectors 450 walbro tomei fuel pressure regulator Iwas set the regulator to 43 psi the car was cut and the turbo bost about 10 psi I rise the fuel pressure to 50 the car hits 15 psi of turbo boost Fuel control unit deleted Is it OK ti rise the fuel pressure Its effects the idel i think do i have to tune it again My turbos is gt28 I need advice guys Alpha7 R35

What is wrong with the guys bidding this zed up, reading the needs doing list is extensive, the corrosion alone is going to cost and all of the service items marked as done inc things like the cambelt where at least 7 years ago ! so that means they all need doing again be it parked up since 2007 or not. Seriously a UK car ? already rusty outer sills back and front, engine looks like its been open to the elements, by the time its had the corrosion, painting, and engine work done it will already be a money pit, goodness knows what it is like underneath, just to add injury to insult the receipts show it had lots of work done at Ztech....oh my it just gets worse?? …

I just delete the fuel control unit and i adjust the Tomei fpr to 43 psi is that right number My z is a bullet engine bigger camshafts and turbos gt28 Sent from my E6833 using Tapatalk

Anyone breaking or know to a left hand drive zed? radio surround / vents and other parts. Cheers Jeff

Seen on ebay another high end Z and this one is on my side of the pond! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300ZX-TWIN-TURBO-AUTO-GENUINE-UK-JUST-34-000-MILES-1-OWNER-STUNNER-/272546450385?hash=item3f7508cbd1:g:Mj4AAOSwjDZYluvN

I'm still having problems getting the 300zx to start when cold. The car will start when warm and also will start once it's been running for 30 seconds or so. At the moment when the cars cold I have to let the engine crank over and hold the accelerator down and when it try's to start ease the accelerator to get it to idle. The car has no error codes No air leaks Compression readings stone cold are 164 165 164 and 153 150 153 taken today. It's currently mapped on a nistune board but prior to that map it had a John Dixon chip and the cold start issue was still there. My basic spec is: Weisco forged pistons Cometic head gaskets Gt52…

Not much of a "build thread" for the foreseeable, but I'll use this to document my car's journey anyway. I grew up on Gran Turismo on Playstation, so like many others I'm absolutely obsessed by Japanese sports cars, from the '90s in particular. For many years I wanted a Skyline or a GTO (or NSX if I was rich), but in the past few years I turned my attention towards the RX-7 and 300ZX. The RX-7 would be the more sensible choice in Ireland, as the tax rate is nearly €1,000 lower PA than the Z. When I entered the working world and started saving, I was pulled more towards the 300ZX. Not really sure why - I'd never really taken any notice of them, but I spotted a dealer …

hi all i want to upgrade my rear calipers and discs on my zed, i already have brembos on the front but need something better on the rear! are there any calipers with bigger disk that directly bolt on from other cars? or other cars that will fit with an adapter kit that can be brought in the uk any help will appreciated thanks

My Zeds looking great, the only thing that lets it down is the moldings and also one of the strips on the door which is faded. They are not bad, but I want them mint like everything else. I see they are available from CZP and also the Z Centre, although expensive. Has anyone recently sourced them fron anywhere else, or even had them refurbished at all? Cheers.
