Hi Peps I'm looking for the front window wiper relay???? its doing my head in and i cant find it Tried the fuse already , motor is fine so I assume its the relay WHERE IS IT ????? Frustrared me !!!!:headvswal

I went out to start my ZX this morning and the battery is completely dead....... .....bloody typical; I discovered the MOT runs out today and my local garage could have done it for me. Julia took the Rav to work this morning and the SLK's bonnet is too long to get close enough with my jump leads. D'oh:slap: I reckon it must be time for a new battery - it was flat-ish last weekend but I jump-started the Z and took it for a 20 mile drive. I didn't set the alarm either as that can drain a battery but I thought there may have been some life left in it. C'est la vie.... Richard:x:

,the time has come to sell my z as much as it pains me my new job just means she has to go as i cant give her time i need the thing is in the dorset area i cant seem to shift her for any sensible price, but even on ebay i cant get a bid plenty of people wanting to do swaps , any advise please and what sort of price should i be looking for?

Looking at courtesys website the hoses changed in 05/90, As my car is a '90 J spec how can I tell the month of manufacture? Or does it not really make much difference which hose I use?

Now in most cars this is a straight forward job. In the 300 this doesn't appear to be the case! I've bought a nice new wheel for my car but there does appear to be the necessity for a certain amount of butchery to the wiring for the cruise control etc. Does anyone have any tips for the removal and fitting?

My series 1 zed heater doesnt want to blow cold, i've replaced the pod, the sensors under drivers footwell + removed centre console. The flap in the middle opens up under 20 odd degrees + is fully open at 10'c. Never blows cold, it has been lukewarm on 40'c though. I have spent an hr searching+ cant get where the heater doors + mixer valve thingy (technical term) is :mac1:

hi guys i need some advice as ive just fitted a pair of blow off valves on the throttle bodies the car has now devloped a hunting at idle when the engine is hot could anyone please help in this matter many thanks :bow:

can any one please tell me that when i go over 65mph there is a pinging noise like a door is open and the lights are left on as soon as i go under 65mph it goes. i have no lights telling me any doors are open and everythimg is locked. the sound sounds like it is comming from the back. :(

Has anyone got the metal road off their car at the moment that they could take a photo of please? I've just spent the afternoon manufacturing one only to find the window now won't go down so it must be a specific shape :rant: The technical manual isn't that helpful, if you could pop it by a ruler it'd be even more help to get the right size At least if i know the shape i can make it up tomorrow and sort it out. Cheers guys

Hi- I have recently picked up another Z. Don't know anything about the spec, the seller had no info on it. Requires some engine work. I have been trying to identify if the turbos are std or upgraded. The exhaust is 3" dia right from turbo elbows back- no cats. The turbos have 5 stud cast elbows. The actuators have 2 metal vac connection pipes although only 1 is connected. The engine is still in the car so access to see the turbos is limited. Ex manifolds look std Can anyone hazard a guess as to what they might be or how I could (easily) identify them Thanks Leo

God damn it. Just had a puncture on the rear. Can safely say now that the space saver wont fit over the brembo callipers and brake disk. Good job me lad works for ATS, had one of the vans on site by the time I had finished breakfast, did have to fork out £160 for a new tyre though. Got a bridgestone REO50, as luck would have it they were a recommendation on the MOT so did need new ones soon. Will be going back tomorrow to get the other one done. Darrell

Looked like a nice day, so decided to G3 my bonnet. Then after I put it on, it started pi**ing it down!! What do I do? WIll it damage? Have tried to wipe it off!

Hey all linking the new forum, mucheasier to use......Well done Anyhow Just a quicky my mate has a set of the older style hks dump valves and is a but confused about something.... on the picture below there is a vacume connection coming from the rear of the valve (left of the valve in pic) which we know where to connect to. but the question is, on the top of the valve there is another connection we think, black plastic on the top of the valve what is this for? and does it need to be connected to anything? weve had a think but cant work it out, and we cant find any info online neither. cheers

...and it's pretty vital! Where's the technical manual gone? :slap: Of all the days for it to disappear and it's gone :cry: Please mister magic 300zx.co.uk, can you put it back on please? :)

Hi chaps, I find when the car has warmed up n I boot it a little, by the time its running at normal/warm temp it is not as responsive. It has higher rpm i (1000ish) and no error codes, def is not detting when warmed up. when I rev it it also takes a fraction longer for the needle to drop! any help would be great. Thanks G
