I've noticed from many of your engine pics that some of you have had the rad fan cover removed. Just wanna know, does it improve the cooling if removed? Also if I wanted to remove it how can I do that? Cheers

Long story short. Finally got the autobox fitted I bought from a member on here (now banned) And there seemed to be a small vibration that started about at 1500rpm. Spoke to Phil at Blackmoor services and he said it could be a bent flex plate. Took it over to him yesterday and left it. He rang to say it wasn’t the flex plate. Picked it up this morning with the vibration still there but not as bad. Manchester to Leeds no problems. Pulled into my street and thought somebody had started a lawnmower in the car. Very loud metal to metal grinding sound in all gears even park and neutral although not as bad. Checked the fluid level and its fine and pink but does sm…

Tried some 19's on and well they stick out somewhat:rofl: Looking at the pic does anyone think its possible to get the arch out to look more like, the wheels were +20 offset rears and 9.5j with 275's Or should i forget the idea...lol cheers guys Paul

I have decided that I rather like the series 4 spoiler, does anyone know where i can get one and OR how awkward they are to fit to a tailgate, Holes wise do they use anything like the original foam effort? Or is it a major engineering job?

Heres a pic of how to fit Bovs inplace of Recirc's. A picture is worth a thousand words.:)

Having a chat with Jimmer last weekend about Z prices. Have noticed that the prices for good ones seems to, at the very least, remained stable. Maybe even on the rise ever so slightly. Checking out some of the for sale ads in Piston heads especially, there are more TT-manuals going for the £5k+ mark than there were about a year ago.

Does anyone have links for how-to's for general maintenance on a UK Auto TT? In particular things like oil change/auto check/auto fluid change/etc? I want to start getting more involved with the car as don't really have any experience and thought decent maintenance would be a good start...especially as I think the car's starting to develop minor problems which may (or may not) be fixed with some basic work... Cheers all...

Just having a wee look through autotrader as i quite fancy a convertible Zed,when i came across this - http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/www/cars/NISSAN+300+ZX/Ne-2-4-5-6-7-8-27-44-49-53-61-64-67-103-133-146-236,N-4294966218-4294967243/advert.action?R=200822311013296&distance=297&postcode=ka15hn&channel=CARS&make=NISSAN&model=300+ZX&min_pr=&max_pr=&max_mileage= Twinturbo,Manual and i notice that it also has electric seats and digital climate control which i thought Nissan scrapped on the later cars?

was up to see how my car was coming along and was surprised to see this parked in the car park

Just sent you money and an email to your paypal email address, tell me if that's the wrong address (I can't reply to your 'For Sale' thread as I'm not subscribed) Thanks, Phill

As a guide, just wanting to see what camber you guys have yours set to? I want to keep a certain amount of mild negative camber and will adjust the rears to sit at the same angle. I like equal camber fr/rr as it makes the car look balanced. I'm now running a +25mm offset at the front and a +35mm at the rear which is pretty much as far as you can go without rolling the wings. I am not sure it's as aggressive as I'd have wanted, still looks good..... I am considering coilovers next year. Having all my tracking and camber sorted at Protyre tomorrow, so it should feel and look a lot better. :)

How do you remove you own topics from 300zx site very sorry to bother you all

hello peeps. just a quick question. im pretty sure the timing belt on my '91tt is a tooth out,now ive not really got the funds to put this right yet but i was just wondering if this can damage my engine or will it just not run 100%? cheers.

I know, I know, I'm allowed to havea non standard plate because it's an import or so I was lead to believe. I don't have a license plate bracket on my Stillen. I was trying to get some sense out of the police that pulled me over but they were adament that as soon as imports come into this country they need to obide by the UK rules, fair enough I guess. So I'll be ording new plates tomorrow. Any suggestions about what type would look best on a stillen front end (UK legal that is). Also where would I put it ? Any ideas, any photoshop ideas also ?

Well car has been running alot better now so went up and took it for a nice clean. When I go to drive away I put the car into Hold mode and both the power light and the hold light come on..... So when it is in Hold mode and I put foot down it flys instead of the nice gentle pull of and gear change. but when i put in power mode just the Power light comes on, what would be the reason for this as has only just this minute happened :(

Have a prob at the mo where it coughs and splutters as soon as i floor it. If i increase teh revs slow and steady without boost it runs fine. I have checked the timing with a strobe as conzult was reporting wrong and no change...about to search on here for boost leak after i've pulled the coil packs and checked the plugs, but assume as she runs sweet at tickover and right up to 3.5 /4k revs with no boost that boost leak is the way to go...?? Any thoughts anyone?

Just abot finished the rear of the car except the bumper, when I got the car it had the usual foam bumper with flaky paint. So I've binned it at fitted something a little different and some clear lenses in the indicators, let me know what you guys think? Before During And After....

my car seems to go better if i dont put my foot to the floor, it seems very strong till i put my foot to the floor the it seems to hesitate any ideas

Here's the cause of the vibration. You reckon its broke.

Black one on promenade going past the pleasure beach with the roof off about lunch time. Red one going past Central pier with big shopping trolley spoiler around 2-3pm.
