Hi all, been looking around for a while and decided to bite the bullet and just ask.... I am having low pressure issues in terms of when cold shows correct temp and then drops to 0 ish when warmed up. I have seen on here that you could try changing the sensor. Not being incredibly good at the mechanical stuff I cannot find a definitive image of what one looks like when out and on a table in front of me OR where abouts it is. I could also do with a bit of info on mechanical checking of the oil pressure. An idiots guide or image with a big damn arrow would be great too!! I know its a lot to ask but I will make it up to you all by attending a few meets when this badass…

Just stumbled across this ebook and thought it was a very interesting development including some concept sketches and design development (even one idea of an r32 front ended Z) How the VQ from the infiniti and the VH45 were considered before setteling from the V6 that more natually progressed from the previous generation. Here is is With the Z32 stuff about 4/5 of the way down in the Fourth Generation. I'm sure some of you have seen it but I thought it was very interesting.

So, following my recent unfortunate incident, I'm looking for a new shell. Ideally I wanted a series 2 car as that's what I currently have. Anyway, finding a good series 2 car seemed stupidly hard, so I'm going to go get a series one car. Anyway, given I'm going to be getting a rolling shell, I'm going to need to move everything over. Wiring loom, engine, gearbox and pedals, interior (S2 into a S1 car) including the electrics. My problem is that I'll be doing everything on my drive. How hard of a job is this going to be? I think I'm mainly worries about moving the engine and gearbox as I've never done anything like this before. Is there a specific order I …

Ok, I'm considering fitting tyres (from Ebay) myself by hand. I've watched Youtube videos, and it looks simple enough using a pry bar or crow bar, some tyre lube stuff etc. Maybe they're just making it look easy... I don't want to ruin my new virgin rims. Just wondered if anyone had fitted their own tyres in a similar way and had any advice? Cheers!

I have an interesting problem. When I start the car everything works good. After a few miles of driving, suddenly the steering servo starts to work really hard, as it dissapeared, and after that HICAS lights up. Every time is the same story, no matter how many times I start the car, even the engine is warm. What can be the problem? Thanks

I am in the process or rewiring the ptu unit. The only problem is I have 4 black wires. 2 on the inner casing and 2 on the outer casing. How do I know which goes to which??

Hi guys not sure if I'm going leave my slicktop spoiler less,I have a infill panel with 3 rd brake light .What are my aftermarket options I don't like any of the oem Nissan factory spoilers any help or pics thanks .

hello all. So I have a 94 imported zed and have always had this fob sat in a drawer which didn't seem to work... Now I learn it is part of teh factory supplied keyless entry system. Any ideas on how I can test it and get it working?... presuming first step is replace battery as it seems dead as a dodo right now. The instructions says insert and remove teh key 6 times in under 10 seconds to go into settings mode, does this mean literally just inserting and removing the key from ignition?

I have a 1990 JDM TT Auto....I understand that many on this forum don't like the Auto and some even 'look down' on it...which is fine....But I actively sort out an Auto version when I decided to buy the only Z car I hadn't owned.... as that's what I usually drive...(However if I were looking to purchase another Z32....based on perception, resale values and most importantly how many miles I actually do in my Zed....I would probably look for a manual :wink:) Anyway...I have an Auto.... and I like the car and can't see me getting rid of it anytime soon...but the look of the Auto shifter has always offended me!....it's 'tall' proportions look decidedly old fashioned comp…

Hi guys, as my spare wheel will no longer clear my brakes, I've decided to put my battery in the wheel well, I've searched in here and found some info. regarding using welding cable, My question is Would this cable be suitable??

My dash has all curled up due to heat damage right where the demister vents are next to the screen. Is this common? And do people generally need a new dash? I can't think of a way to fix it without replacing it Jake

I was going to wait until the whole project was finished before i write this up, but i find myself with time to kill. I have had my zed for a bit over a year now and have done a couple modifications to it: HICAS Delete Larger SMICs Larger Radiator but the one thing that really bugged me the whole time was the style of the car. this was mainly down to a mismatched paint job and this summer i set about rectifying this. These are pictures from the first day i bought the car:

I'm out with the Z1 guys for Znationals. Today is track day at Road Atlanta raceway near Atlanta Georgia. This is my 4th trip to this event and it doesn't dissapoint. Tomorrow is car-show day at Cool-Ray Field and yours truly is one of the judges! Only 1 photo for now, will add to this when the connection is a little better.

Gents does anyone have any pictures of the rear arch repair panels that are on ebay and zcenter I want to do mine but would like to see what is involved, so if there are any pictures of the work being done welded in ect and cutting would be greatly appreciated :)

How nice is this convertible and the condition is top drawer. Most of us may not be fans of the convertible 300zx but this looks good. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300-ZX-3-0-MANUAL-CONVERTIBLE-LOW-MILES-HIGH-SPEC-EXCEPTIONAL-/172372811514?hash=item2822385efa:g:ov0AAOSwzaJX~ngN

Ok, so over the winter I'm looking at dropping the rear subframe and fitting new bushes, checking the brakes line etc and re coating the Underside with Dinitrol again. Whilst doing this I am going to take the rear bumper off, check everything else out. Now the Zenon and Demon rear bumperthat are made for the wide arch kit, from Zed Centre I think look very dated now, and I am thinking of changing the look of the rear. I think that the tailpipes could be larger, and look at little lost on the current setup Trouble is with having the wide arse kit, fitting a new bumper will not blend in with the rear wing fillers. Now I'm sure that a good body shop will be able t…

Hello, I'm new to the forum so bare with me as not that sure if I'm in right section. Basically does anyone know where I might be able to get the universal joints for the prop shaft? Am I best going to breakers or are there specialists etc? Don't want to have to buy the whole prop shaft unless there's anyone on here who has one at a decent price. Cheers!

My TT runs perfectly under most conditions, but it can be quite lumpy under very light throttle. It's basically when the throttle is barely touched, like while maintaining 20 mph, or accelerating really slowly in traffic. If you press it a couple of extra millimeters, it runs fine and it's perfect when driven hard. Has anyone got any suggestions?

Okay so had a report back from the body shop saying that apparently the larger SMICs I have are causing the fresh paint to crack? Although I'm nearly 100% sure they weren't touching the bumper when it went in there. I'm not with the car so I can't clarify but has anyone heard of/had any issues of this nature?

Okay , so been thinking about installation of traction control over the last few days, Now ideally I would prefer a Racelogic system, But if i cannot locate one at a sensible price what alternatives do I have, Is it possible to use an OEM system from another Nissan and graft it into the loom , much in the same way as a Racelogic would need, Anybody clever out there with some sensible thoughts on this Thanks Sayers
