Can someone give me the correct settings for the CAS adjustment please. I know the setting is 15 DBTDC but at what rpm. I have done a search but cant find the rpm setting Thanks Allan

As ive had my zed for nearly two years now, and its been ill for most of that time. Ive now got the cash to sort it. As i was giving it a little hoover in the boot, i lifted up the carpet to find under the grey foam to the left two polythene bags containing you guess it, the original targa bags still in wrapping, they are 100% like new, then to put the icing on the cake, under the space saver wheel (which looks like its never touched the road) i find the original fairlady Z owners handbook, in Japanese though, only thing it has the lower right corner slightly turned up, otherwise near perfect condition. Well chuffed, just need to get the Nissan fire extinguisher no…

Just wanted to say a big thanks to steviecopland for helping me out. :dance: When my car started misfiring a while ago i started a thread to ask for help and i got a lot of responses telling me it could of been the PTU, unfortuneately i could not find a way of testing it without shelling out for a brand new unit. Anyway steviecopland read the thread and offered to send me his PTU while his car was off the road. A few days later i recieved it and was able to illiminate the PTU as a suspect, which meant i saved quite alot of money. :) Anyway i just wanted to post this thread to thank him and to say i think its fantastic being part of a club that is this great an…

Hi all. Has anyone got an induction kit fitted to their zed? I'm thinking about getting one soon, I have a TT. Do they make a noticable difference in the engine sound? Which make do people favour? I've always liked HKS but here the filtration is rubbish and I dont wanna suck any crap into the turbo. Theres a few cheap ones on ebay - not brand names but Im worried you get what you pay for.

Just a quick thanks to Scott of Nexus Performance in Southend-on-Sea for sorting out some little niggles on me Z...Good recomendation for any other Z's that need TLC.......... :dance:

Hi Guys,i replied to a very serious accusation against the Z Centre on a thread on the forum which was 8 pages long on christmas eve and has now been removed. I used ceejays membership for the replay as i was unaware i was still a registered member of the forum. There must have been a glitch with the forum website because soon after I posted my reply even though the accusation had been running for 8 pages the thread is no more. Out of fairness to the accused I have added my reply below so members have sufficient time to read my reply. Hopefully there won't be more glitches with the forum website. Regards Luke Borg Z Centre. Hi guys,I thought i would let …

Having time to reflect on the future recently, how many people would actually be prepared to buy a genuine 99 spec ZX. I estimate prices to be approx £7 - £9K OTR... They first came out in October 1998, so by August next year i'll be seriously looking to get some over. However will the demand be there enough for me o invest time/effort to monitor selling prices/availability over the next 6/7 months? Thx Lee

Yeah..I know that this subject was covered a lot of times around here! I'm in the market for a big brake upgrade; I'm looking for the D2 racing brakes mostly because they're cheap! Anyone here using them?! I've searched as far as I can, but still I got no review from them...anyone have thoughts on this that they want to share?!

hey guys / Girls My stock temp gauge was being erratic..i.e up and down although water level was perfect and water pump etc was changed about 6 months ago..now i know the stock gauge is rubbish plus after a short pause is started working perfectly again. However , during the pause I thought i´d give both temp sensors a little wiggle to check the connections, as I did the secondary ( electric)fan came on and has been on permanently since , anyone got any ideas there? cheers Maz

whilst doing a diagnostic on my ecu i noticed it has a gold plaque on it with mines on it although there is a nissan sticker on the bottom of the ecu is this normal or is it an upgraded ecu also when i dropped the panel below stering wheel i found a small electonic gizmo that was unplugged from the loom it goes into a black box with starbo 6-12 on it then into loom ,i plugged it in and it lit up with number on it it looks like turbo timer but i dont think it is as when i randomly pressed buttons it cranked the engine when the ignition was on any ideas

Hi every one,l hope l can put this notice in this section.Please note,l sold my 300 twin turbo about 2 to 3 months ago to a chap call tyrone from birmingham,he gave me a hard luck story about not having enough money to get him,his wife and kids home,so l like a idiot trusted him to take the car and send what money was left to pay asap,after emails/phone calls no contact has been made to arrange the rest of my money.I have held on to the v5 and have spoken to dvla/police,so do not buy it if its offer to you.or if you know where the car is could you let me know.thanks for looking,mick :nono:

Hi Guys, Not sure if anyone is still about who remembers me but thought I would say Hi and wish everyone a happy Xmas and new year :) It's been a long year since what happened to Jay, but life goes on as they say! Still breaking the last beast that was made atm actually, got loads of bits, R33 brakes etc etc, give me a shout if anyone wants a list, for some reason I've lost my perms to the sale section? Anyways, still running around in shopping trolley's atm, bought another drifter for a toy tho and turned to bikes now for outright thrills, can't beat it, well apart from the shite weather we have had, she's only been out five times in the past two mont…
