All I can say is awesome! Jeff has transformed my car in a week into a beast! Thanks Jeff

im looking at taking of my standard/horrible rubber spoiler as its gone all saggy, what spoilers suit the rear end of the 300zx? are there any from different cars that look good? i don't want a great big picnic table sat on the back and im not a fan of the "highline" style spoilers, just something not overstated, something like Funkisi's, etc. Any ideas?

WTF if it had been dyno'd surley you would KNOW what BHP it was..... but now with a few tuning mods and 400cc injectors its running between 500 - 600 BHP... :shock: another crock of crap time waster......IMO of course.... ;) i've invited him over :D Neil

What revs should my auto import TT be ticking over at idle? Problem is this:Car starts perfectly, I pull away, pull up to a junction and brake, revs fall and then engine cuts out/stalls. I went on a run today and once warm it's fine but I pulled into a shop and nipped in, came back car started fine but from initial revs the needle falls and then the car cuts out/stalls, it's as if the engine doesn't catch-could it just be the timing? Any advice greatly received! B

on a couple of occasions now my speedo has stopped working and with that my power steering.:confused: this only happens every now and again and is totally random as to when it does it. Can anyone shed some light on this problem and how i can cure it?

I was in my passat flashing and waving thinking you were krsmayo :x: :o i have confirmed that his car hasnt been stolen so was it you? :D

i wanted to wait and put them on when I had the rest of my bodywork put on, but a) i couldn't resist it any more, and b) my old tyres were fooked on the insides. and when i say fooked, i mean bald and starting to puke their liner out!! :eek: :eek: :eek: theyre 19" 275 on the back and 245 on the front. i love the plain 5-spoke style, and theyre going to be SO much easier to clean than the old Vortexes. i definately need to drop my rear about 20mm, and i'd like to space them out just a little. the front is a foookin tight fit. when on full lock either way, there's about one millimetre between the tyre and the inside arch! i will probably space the fronts out very …

My UK tt still has its stock front bumper on it, however, I want to put a subtle front splitter on it, possibly from another manufacturer... Has anybody ot any ideas? thanks, Dan

that really pisses me off about my car - the window mechanism keeps trying to push the window up thru the roof every now and then makes a loud clicking noise and causes the lights to dim, is there a relay dead? or a switch problem? or a motor i can buy, its like a ghost pressing the 'up' button every coupla seconds...

How will adding 25kg to the Z affect it. Im trying to reduce the weight in the car and am unsure about putting subs in. Am looking at getting the 0-60 time down as much as possibe

The TT has 2 small intercoolers as we know.. I have seen people with FMIC's.. Can you run 1 intercooler for 2 turbos?.. I don't quite understand how it works.. I presume the 1 large intercooler is probably better than 2 small ones..? can someone shed some light on this grey area for me please, cheers!

I've searched but cannot find the paint code for the mirror mounting plate, I'm sure it's on here but can't find it, does anyone have it and is it the same color as on the bumper around the indicators and side lights. cheers Paul

While the zed is off the road thought i would junk all the usual stuff AIV EGR etc. Anyway managed to bypass the EGR with the engine and gearbox in the car :nana2::dance: Not bad for a novice. btw did i say............ :nana2::dance::nana2:

I'm just thinking, the 300zx auto has a button where you can "hold" or flick it to "power" & when you press this rocker switch, the light appears on the dash telling you which has been pressed.. When you get a manual conversion.. I'm guessing the little panel which has these warning lights isn't really needed?.. what does the manual have in it's place if that is so?.. and I have looked through the auto to manual conversion on the pdf file here, but I was wondering if their is anyone here who has had an auto to manual and realised you don't have all the features you once had i.e. little lights or maybe cruise control?.. Does the manual TT have anything extra to an au…

Hi, Mine's a UK car so have the indicators and sidelights in the front with dummy corners. I actually like the indicators in the front but wonder what options I have? My real issue is that I think the plastic used on the front indicators looks dated :( Cheers Vijay

Well over the last couple of days i've been prepping and spraying my new foglight ducts. So i sprayed em at the weekend, fitted em on Wednesday, left em on Thursday to give the adhesive plenty of time to cure and today i cleaned the car and took some piccies :nana2: Really loving the look myself, i think they suit the 99 really well! And there is now even more air getting to my intercoolers :D Got rid of the foglights as i never use them and they look dated IMO. It also bugs me that they are set back and not flush with the bumper :rant: Anyway here we go :dance:
