Hi all i have a square red button on the left side of the casing around the steering wheel, when i press it a fan come's on, does that mean i always have to activate my fan, the temp never creeps up even in heavy traffic, not pressed it once yet, well only to test what it was, is it a normal thing. thanks Dom

I have an occasionall misfire on 1 cylinder when the car is fully warmed up, however not when its first started, doesnt seem to missfire when revs are held, just on idle, any ideas without me looking?

So i can go to Z2009 Went for a run to warm up oil for oil & filter change. All of a sudden engine light came on,revs increased slighty to 1200rpm and electric fan came on. Changed oil & filter,so i know there is enough oil,checked water ok. Now on starting all is fine for between 10-40 seconds then same thing happens,engine light comes on,revs increase and electric fan on. Please help,want ot go to Z2009 this weekend.

Was it a success last month? Will there be a May Contest? By the poor turnout again i think possibly not!

Anyone heard of them or even used them?

My 300 has only done this twice in the time of me owning her and the last time it was very loud and has only ever done this when ive got her very hot and been giving it a hell of lot of beans,(basically on the verge of hitting the limiter) is this any thing to be concerned by or just unburnt gasses exploding on the hot exhaust upon exit?

Hi everyone My car will be arriving from Japan at the end of this month hopefully so I was wondering what if anything I will need to do to it. De-limit the speed ? Do I have to since I'm an old guffer now ? Adjust the mileometer to reflect the mileage in miles instead of km's ? How ? UK clocks ? (What's the difference ?) Other things ? Is it the act of de-limiting the speed that changes the mileometer to read miles ? Cheers Mark

Hi All, have not been on here for a little while as I have got so fed up with the Zed it has been parked in the gararge for the last few months. Current problem it that I keeped getting a wet MAF and engine cut out; however the problem I have is that when I disconnect to MAF it still cuts out, now I thought that with a disconnected MAF I simply would not be able to rev past 2500rpm. When the car cuts out, it is not a striaght cut out it runs on a few cylinders for about 10 secs and even if you press on the gas it dies! Now I have to say I am getting to the point where the mrs wont get in the car because it breaks down all the time!

How the hell do you get the metal pipes from the intercooler that tuck through the aperture by the radiator.......out. They have a mounting bracket on both ends. Do they come out without removing the anti roll bar.?

6 Bosch Platinum Spark Plugs FR7DP1X are these any good for a 300zx TT running standard boost??? i know the ngk plugs are the recomended ones just these seem alot cheaper?

I am thinking purchase this turbo for about 450-500Hp at the flywheel....and I need more information for this... Thanks

Anyone got a pic of the pipework/valves/etc for the clutch booster maybee from the manual as i'd like to see what parts are missing from my manual conversion. Cheers John

is it just the 2 seater is swb and the 4 seater is lwb. daft question but i'am allowed i'm new, lol.

i went to put my electrical drivers seat in my car (because there wasnt a seat bolted down in the car when had it) the car is a NA Jap car, there doesnt seem to be any wire to plug the seat into? dont know if only the TT had the electrical seat, or if the previous owner had cut the wire off or something. anyway looking at the electrical seat, theres only 2 prongs in the connector, im asuming one is posotive & one is negative? so just wire them to a 12+ & 12- source and seat should work yea?

Hi again was cleaning my engine and noticed that i have no dmn turbo sticker on it, just a rectangle a sticky left overs, anyone know where i can get on from, i know its only a sticker, but its a sticker i think worth having lol. cant ya tell i'am new to twin turbo's not alone the Z.
