how easy are these to do? I also may need to do the rear quarters too

Hi all, Been getting the car going again after along time garaged, when braking the car starts to shake really bad, I have uprated tension rods so it cannot be the tension rod bushes :confused: Would it warped discs?

F&F 300zx :hurl:

Feels like it's coming from up behind the dash, so wondering if there's a slight leak from the servo? It's not prevalent during light braking, but moderate to hard braking at low speed, it can be heard. The brakes and clutch feel fine, very good infact for stock brakes and master cylinder. Am I correct in thinking it may be a seal from the servo and air is leaking slightly under pressure? If so, is there a fix for it?

this is how i did it, cut the two pipes, got a piece of 8mil copper pipe, nipped an olive on one end as it is a larger diamiter pipe, couple of jubilee clips and hey presto, sorted till i remove and change the pas pot and power steering pump

Sick of people telling me off so just to let you all know I... Just got a full set of R33 GTR brembos with DBA uprated front discs:nana2:

Can anyone tell me if Nissan did away with the abs unit bleed nipples on the Z from 1994 on wards, and would the bleeding be the same as the manual apart from the abs unit. cheers Paul

Other than mail order, which won't get here by tomorrow, does anyone know any franchise stockists/distributors of the above oils as I want to see if I can get hold of some today/early tomorrow morning. Thanks. :)

Hey, Im thinking of graphicing my Z up but I cant find any Z'ds that have been done, anyone done it themselvs or anyone got some images? Thanks.

Yes, my car left the garage and went all the way to work today ! Literally about the 3rd time it's been driven this year !!!! It's also filthy dirty due to sawdust/crap from the garage and will have to go to the car wash on the way home.

Its been nearly three months with no zed, Z Tech still have it, fed up of driving around in a faded red 1.4 k reg Astra with no power steering and no poke, I so want it back as its my everyday car, will just have to be patient, it will be worth it in the end, I hope.

bloody car, its getting to me today. i had the age old problem of the hoses from the rear of the engine to the bulkhead (for the heater matrix) splitting over the past fortnight. bought some new ones, fitted them and no leaks at all, all was resolved. took it into work this morning, and again the ******* is leaking - i cant see the leak (as its more steam, than water) coming from the rear centre of the engine bay. All i can see is the the water trickling on the road. its bleeding to death :( I know the question is vary vague as I cant truly investrigate untill i get her home, but is it likely that i have another leak from the rear centre of the engine bay (…

Hi there everyone, I know this subject always throws open "to do or not to do" debate, but I have a set in the boot and am going to fit them. I bought a set of Blitz valves on hard pipes but they came with no instructions. I have found a step by step guide online but would like someone who knows more than me to check if its ok. Any help would go down nicely. http://www.xspeed.com.au/manuals.php :duffer::duffer::duffer:

Morning! When my Z is cold the engine judders unless you rev it a bit higher to 2500 revs and seems a bit hesitent when you put your foot down but as soon as it walmed up 5 mins into the jurney its fine. I thought it may just need the intake manifolds cleaning out with carb cleaner as they are prob rather gunked up..................?

got the new shell today and noticed an aerial the top but im not sure what it is. Its on the metal bit just above the back window. Car seems to have the normal aerial too. Its a series 2 jap tt

hello mate, saw your zed at phils today :)

my rear speakers have been took out and was just wondering if anyone had any same size speakers to go in my holes where they should be, i think they are 6"x4" cheers

hi all i have read previously about the hicas light being on but myn comes on when turning left and for the first 5 mins or so from being cold does anyone have any ideas on this cheers tezz.

Going to fit an eletronic fuel press gauge 2mow. The sender is the same type as the aftermarket oil pressure ones you get with the auto gauges. Can i T and plumb this in just after the fuel filter or just after the fpr? and what do you suppose i should use to connect the 1/8 thread to the fuel flow? seems a bit odd!!! Thanks in advance.

so! its on ebay its got the 18 inch bbs rims - anyone know any history on it? also in a strait line pound for pound there not as quick as the equivelant toyota supra are they? as the na supra weighs 1410kg and the na zx weighs 1610kgs altho we beat them in bhp by 2hp lol! or is it all paper figres and an NA zx would anialate an NA supra?

Hi, With the AFM and T piece removed, should the 2 pipes that the T peice attaches to have equal suction? On mine the passanger side one has a lot of suction and the engine almost stalls with my hand over it but the drivers side doesn't. Vijay

I've got my mind set on a zed but a few people have suggested to me a 3000gt or gto. I don't particularly like the look of the Mits (or should I say I much prefer the look of the zed). But what are they like to drive? I know the stats are similar for the TT models for performance but real world? Mike

I use a transit van everyday for work, each day i come home and see my zed sat on the driveway. Even if i have other things to do, i make some sort of excuse and put them off, it always lands up i take her out, even if its just a blip down the shops or just go out for a drive to unwind. Every day the zed goes out, each time i press the pedal, and it pulls away, it makes me smile, its nice to see other other people driving around and they seem bored and caught up in their own world and dull. Get yourself a zed, hear it purr and no matter what the world throws at you, keep on smiling. These beasts are superb............................ Love em.................. …

Hi guys, My Zed is an Jap import and came with an Air Flow Resetter (I was told that it was an Air Flow Controller but it is labled as Air Flow Resetter) which has an on off switch and a controller... I googled all around and only got one hit from a forum saying but it is not confirmed. Can anyone tell me what this is and what it does? Mine is a N/A and I was told by Legrath in another thread to remove the Air Flow Controller since I have no advantage of it and will be causing running problems.:bow: Legrath if you are reading this is it the same with Air Flow Resetter? Could you (or anyone) please give me more details on what this Air Fl…
