just got my car back from thor racing who fitted and mapped greddy emanage and prefec e01 boost con, heres the results: all ive done so far is super drager exhaust, apexi intake, turbo xs dump valves, and now the emanage and profec e01, running as 17psi, althou i think il mainly run it at 14psi and ive used the overtake boost button to run at 17psi, which ive set to toggle rather than on a time limit! just wondering how other ppls results compare with similar mods, i was quite impressed with the gains! oh and both results are at the wheels, he just forgot to cross out 'fly' on the left graph! the blue line is at 14psi, red is at 17 and yellow at stand…

Anyone know where i can get a Brembo caliper repair kit or servicing kit????

Hello peeps. dont know if anyone can help me,but a couple months ago i had my cambelt changed by a well known zed garage. now the other day my mate,who is a mechanic,was taking a look at the engine of my zed(my motor being a '91 tt) and told me he noticed my cas was adjusted to the right as far as it would go. this means nothing to me but he told me that it was pretty strange for the cas to be in this position. he said it should really be adjusted bout half way. now im a bit worried,has the zed garage that changed my belt timed it wrong by any chance or am i worrying bout nothing? car is running fine by the way,cheers guys.

I've noticed after driving for a while my gear change gets a little stiff.... I'm thinking it could be a few things maybe the oil maybe the clutch although clutch is uprated and relatively new and perhaps as i've uprated to a short shifter perhaps it's done up a little tight and when it gets hot the rubber bushes expand and tighten the whole thing up..........maybe???? Any ideas??????????? Anyone???

Got my new wheels on at last:dance: Here's the first pics of the ONLY ORIGINAL TWINZ front bumper 300zx car in the uk (I think!!) AND ITS ALL MINE:dance::dance::nana2::nana2::dance::dance:

Hi guys and gals ...Does anyone know where i can get a new center prop bearing from and roughly how much they are? Its a 1992 manual tt. Any help will be great!

As above. My sister and brother saw a standard silver zed on southport coastal road today at about 12.30. Was it you?

Are these what you need mate. http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=42120&stc=1&d=1211725638[img\]

hi all took the zx our for a spin this morning i was puzzled to find i had no heating suddenly then after i felt down the drivers footwell behind the centre consul its a little wet any ideas what this is? i think its the matrix if it is anyone know where i can get one and how much?

I've emailed an alloy repair centre in Carnwath (Scotland) to see if they can repair 2 alloys for the Zed. Here's a pic of one, the others the same but still has the tyre on. What do you think.

Hey all Iv'e been wondering about this for a bit now. My exhaust has a section in the middle which joins the two pipes and then separates into two exits again?? I've not seen this anywhere else should I get a section for the middle that keeps the exits separate? or is this ok? Appreciate any thoughts Cheers

when on the line graph mode, what's the difference between the two lines - the thin one and the thick one? (and please dont say thickness! :p )

Spent the weekend doing some upgrades on the Zeds. First off I redid the roof mouldings from this to this using this, (thanks to Greavous on the US site) The I did some soldering and made the clear rear side lenses into indicators using these At least now they are functional Tony:cool:

Right to cut a long story short i sent my dittery old man to get the two front tension arm bushes pressed out at my local nissan dealer who previously dealt with rover ( i used to own a rover coupe vvc prior to the zx and found them very reasonable for parts etc) anyway he phoned me and said it maybe tomorrow before he can do them but he would phone when done Fine i thought Then 1/2 an hour later i get a phone call saying they are done and i have a bill of £ 65 plus vat Am i paying dealer prices or should i go and give my frail dittery old man a slap for being so gullable:rofl:

:cry::cry::cry: i just sold my car http://s45.photobucket.com/albums/f82/BOYnexDOOR/?action=view&current=69007729.pbw im gutted:cry::cry::cry: maybe its time to look for a manwell now then :D:D:D

Hi All, Just decided to start getting my hands dirty, lol Only takin 15 months :x: have taken a few pics of engine bay but seem to have afew bits missing, can anyone give me a clue?? Have marked a couple of pics with yellow arrows, what size bolt is meant to be there? Also my s/s fuel line is just laying over the engine, whats missing? Does it look straight enough?? 1992 Jap TT Auto Any help appreciated :)

since i come back from Z008 i've had a sort of rattling/slapping noise coming from the front of the car, once its warmed up its fine and has dissappeared and it also goes when i accellerate, i've checked the new belts for fraying just incase 1 of them has tethered and they are fine, any suggestions of what to look for would be great, i'd usually ask andy duff but its his weekend off :rofl:

can anybody tell me where the how to for this is cos i can't seem to find it cheers pete:cry:

Nice looking Red one between Bognor and Chichester last night... looking good!

What would be the perfect Optima battery to fit on a Z32 96 model? I only have a Gemini alarm connected 12v but after a while as I mentioned b4 and not driving it it kills the battery some folks tell me to get a Varta 80 AHM, and this guyw a stelling me to get an Optima and I would have the best battery in the market..but wich one would be suitable for a 300ZX??? Happy weekend folks:dance:

just a thought.. if some1 stole your car right now... would you be more upset that its been stolen or that they are ragging the pants off it with 264 miles to go before its run in? :rofl: i hope your getting some hardcore low down grunts going on and a nice variation of loads, rpms... rag it... time is running out... RAG IT!! :D:smw:

anyone knows what is the difference ?

just wondering where the best place to get alloys on the net is? thats my car almost ready to pick up from the bodyshop after its repairs and respray not sure if i should either get my alloys repaired or get a new set as i need 2 new tyres anyway. also anyone got a rough idea on a price to repair my old alloys just the usual scuffs and scrapes on them nothing major.
