Last night i found a light that has not been connected in the boot. Connected the interor boot light and works fine. Been out today in the zed and give it some beens but the gear change seems to drop to many revs between shifts then pics up. Can it be related electical? Or is it because its still resticted to 112?

As above, Pearl White, "H" plate... saw you at harlscott esso petrol station 7.45pm yesterday evening (friday). Very nice looking zed you got there! I drove past and noticed you out of the corner of my eye...i tried to beep my horn but it wasnt working, so you wouldn't of noticed me.

just been down to zedworld jeff found the problem almost strait away so thankyou to him! Car sounds like a blowing piece of crap! gonna cost £650+ vat to change the bloody gasket! what a night mare engine has to be dropped to get to it!

having difficulty putting the pipes back on, the metal & rubber ones, cant get them all to line up, the pipe that has the take-off for the re-circs, does that pipe go to the intake plenum/throttle (cold side) or does it go to the turbo (hot side) ?

Hi all, my Z stinks of fuel but only on start up and also hesitates but when she gets warm both these problems clear. could this be due to the old rubber fuel hoses on the engine? should i get the metal pipes from smithes? Regards Andy

Hey guys The aircon guy came round to gas up all the cars and it turns out the Zed had a leak. He traced it to the following valve which was on a pipe front right of the car heading towards the headlight. It unscrews and it looks like something that was attached to it is now missing as there is just a hole in the top. Can anyone identify it please. Then tell me where I can get a new one. Thanks muchly

Had some time off this week so I have been refurbing my front rims, this is the first one just needs bolting back together, should Finish the other one tomorrow. Paul

guys before i spend on some new o2 sensors i just need to confirm my findings :mac1: when starting engine from cold the o2 sensors dont range just stay the same both sides, when driving from cold engine is quite hesitant also but when the engine is warm the o2 sensors range up and down just fine and the hesitation has gone, am i correct in thinking the heating element has gone in them? :confused: cheers

AHHHHHHHHHHH Actually hating cars right now:|!!! Just absolutly dying to get myself behind a 300zx twin turbo again. This has been my first performance car and now anytime i look at other i just think, the zed could have taken that.lol. Choking at the bit to get one now think i mite even end up buying a heap to fix it up, which i dont really wani do.ahaha.

Anyone know a good supplier of stickers or a template I could use to put the Brembo logo back on my R34 calipers after I painted them?

Are these any good? Would i have to get front and back or could just get front rods?

After looking at previous threads I dont want to open a can of worms here but can someone confirm that the gap for ngk pfr6b-11c is 0.8. Thanks.

Hi guys, does anyone know the length of the manual flywheel bolts? (excluding the head) I know they are M10 metric fine, and 12.8 high tensile, have a friend who might be able to get me some, but need to know the length, as i don't want to cutting any down (for obvious reasons)... Cheers guys.... Tudor...

(I also removed all of the aircon piping in the engine bay) ... Do I need to block/blank the two bulkhead connection points to the cabin??? Cheers ;)

I've finally got around to fitting my alloy rad and electric fan set up.The problem is do i have to fit an expansion tank to the rad or can i just bin the old leaking one and run it without. :confused:
