Who knows the wires for: signal, live & Earth for a kph to mph converter?

Does anyone know what power a MAF will limit a TT to? Have to start thinking about the mapping side of the conversion and wondered what the MAF maxes out at.

When doing an oil change does a certain amount of oil remain in the cooler?

Long shot I know but wanted Z31 non turbo air flow meter, not for me, but needed asap if anyone knows of one, already tried mike at MJP thanks in advance. Jeff TT

how much oil is needed to do a complete oil change on an auto-box? and what is the best oil to use?:bow::bow::bow::dance:

or at least speeding off in it. - when afm cables are removed car goes into limp home mode. So by cutting a cable to the afm (need to work out which one), and extending it to a flick switch hidden somewhere in the dash you can enable/disable afm/limp mode - may come in handy when leaving car for valeting, or in dodgy areas :) (Not that we should ever leave them in dodgy areas) Good idea? or would there be problems that Ive missed?

Any ideas where i could get a cheap one and is there a tee in valve or do i have to make my own tee in, if so, where's best? Cheers,

Saw a rather dirty Zed parked in the layby oppsite the Hassengate Medical Centre yesterday evening... Had five spoke wheels and a high rear spoiler

Is this engine stand strong enough to hold a vg30dett safely? http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/ces-750a-engine-stand/path/workshop-cranes-engine-stands

Is there any way of testing the handbrake warning light? I have a feeling the bulb has blown because it doesn't come on when the handbrake is applied and after checking the switch out today it seems to be working OK. I've also pulled the connector off the brake fluid reservoir which I imagined would make the light come on? but it didn't. Does this sound like a blown bulb? Cheers.

Bought the kit to replace as much pipe work as possible. Problem is i cant find any 8mm pipe work for the 8mm silicone hose. Where is it hiding? Also could i use some large boost pipe to run a hose from the turbo/intercooler pipe straight to the idle valve (IAA) cutting out the hard pipe section?

I came accross this on E-Bay and it got me thinking........ http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=200317049648&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=010 I wonder what other kit you need to get this thing working? My understanding is it is a proper 7 speed manual gearbox (no shitty torque converters) so it should be quite efficient! They seem to shift nice and fast, take a look at the following video: XUBV6xzzLsk That car has 720hp and achieves 229mph so I'd say it's a fairly strong 'box :mac1:

i was in the work hilux collecting a bike from southwater, just saw your zed pulling onto roundabout at very last second, looked pretty smart from what i saw

after pouring water down targa drain hole the water isnt finding its way through to the exit but is wetting the passenger foot well any advise on fixing this? cheers steve

Hey guys maybe ye can help me. My Z has mph (120) clocks in at the mo but i have 320 kph clocks which i tried but it still clocks up in mph. Am i rite by thinkin that i must change the speed sensor on the gearbox as well as the clocks. Any help appreciated.

Can anyone tell me if HSD struts complete with coils are good.On e-bay for 680 plus postage.

Does anyone know if a 200sx or any other nissan clutch pedal/master cylinder will fit a Zed? A bit of modifying isn't a problem, as long as it isn't ridiculous, cos I'm sure you all know, these for the Zeds are like rocking horse poop, and I really need one! :cry: Cheers....

Found this posted on the net is it right [i just thought every one should know that you get a 4:11 ratio r230 in a z32.its only in the nismo edition z32.mine was a 1999 model i think those were the only nismo zeds.]

Hi, what mirrors look good on a Black 300 TT. I am having here resprayed later in year and would like to change the mirrors to something a bit sexyier if you know what I mean.

The manifolds came in last week so got the turbo fitted in place this weekend, oil lines on the way. I collected the front bumper from the paint shop so I can now mock up the intercooler and find a rad to fit. The turbo flange needs rotating about 10 degrees but apart from that it fits!! You can see the turbo flanges needs rotating And here it is.....

Can I swap a series one aircon dash pod with a series two aircon dash pod ? and will it work ? Or will I have to swop the aircon ecu for a series two aircon ecu. Help Please. :bow:
