Hi, Just planning ahead, when I get my 300zx tt I want to do a full check on everything, ECU, Autobox, HICAS and so on (due to it being under warrenty for 6 months).. should I ask for some help from the owners of Datascan or ConZult or would I be best going to ZED World in Tamworth (sorry for the incorrect spelling). I read on their website that they can do a full review for £30 and also include a maintainance plan too. Am I correct in this or was I dreaming it.... Thanks in advance.

Went to start the car today, ignition lights on, turned the key and nothing, all the lights went out, tried to restart, but the lights diddnt light up and had no power at all. I came back to it a few hours later, opened the door and the alarm went off, I couldnt turn it off so I opened the bonnet and touched the negative wire going to the battery very slightly and the alarm stopped and the car started straight away, the negative has been tightened as tight as it will go, but it seems that the terminal on the battery is too small causing a bad connection, ever since this has happened, im getting a high pitched buzzing even when the ignition is off, I cant pinpoint where it…

Has anyone who has installed an RPS max clutch had troubles bleeding the clutch? My mechanic has tried for a day and a half to bleed it and its still not right! I've had everything replaced apart from the Master cylinder which includes RPS flywheel, braided hose from hard pipe to slave and a new slave cylinder. It can change gear with the engine off but with the engine running it won't change gear. He's running out of ideas even after speaking to Jeff at Zedworld and Nissan!!:headvswal

I took the 300 out the weekend for a blast up the ring road and on my way home i noticed the temp gauge creeping up and the fan didnt come in at all.So by the time i pulled over to let her cool down the temp had reached 110 and i started to get a bit worried! How much damage if any do you think i could have done? thanks james

In my UK Z when the sidelights are on the headlight bulb is on very dim as a sidelight, then goes brighter when the headlights are switched on. So, if i install a hid kit what will happen when i switch the sidelights on? Will the hid kit try to light up dim? What can be done to rectify this problem as i dont want to cause damage and I want xenons Thanks guys, Dan

Hi folks, was wondering where the idle control valve is on the zeds? Have a twin turbo 1993 model. Think this may be my problem with it cutting out so just wanted to check it out. Cheers

Hi guys, I'm thinking about getting a 300... I used to own a 3000gt which i absolutely loved, and i've heard that this nissan is pretty much a clone of the mitsi.... The only thing with the mitsi was the cost of running it. I wasn't thinking too much the petrol costs, which were still ludicrous, but more the cost of repairs/servicing.. Question is basically is the 300zx twin turbo an expensive car to own and is it likely to cost me my life savings just to keep it on the road. I appreciate it depends on whether i buy a very very nice one or a crapper, but i was hoping for a bit of a generalisation about the cars.... Any help is much appreciated! …

Hi all, I have noticed a petrol smell in my garage the last couple of days. I took the Z out this morning and saw a very small patch on the garage floor which would have been under the rear of the car. I'd say it was level with the rear wheels, slightly off centre to the right of the car (the opposite side to the fuel filler;)) It does not appear to be losing fuel in any noticable quantity...... Any ideas where it may be coming from? Thanks, Richard:cool:

hi guys anyone know if the afm are same on the n/a and tt z32 please, think mines stuffed cheers gareth
