Hi all, just wondering if anyone has a wiring diagram or can throw a little light on wiring up the heated seats. I have a switch and have the seats but not much idea. The problem is that i don't want to loose my folding mirrors as my garage is a little tight. cheers Jonce

Hi any1 can tell me where can I buy this bonnet vents.

Ok, had the car on axle stands for a couple of months. Brakes all stripped, cleaned etc and reassembled. Ready to bleed brakes so topped up master cylinder. No1 son didn't appear so left overnight. Following morning theres a puddle of brake fluid on floor directly below Master cylinder. Never had a problem with the brakes before, only worked on the calipers and the flexis were sealed to prevent excessive fluid loss. No work was done on the master cylinder . Puzzled as to why it's decided to drop fluid. Any ideas??

I'm curious what peoples opinions on what rating plugs one should have. My car is circa 580 - 600hp engine) and I currently use a heat rating of 8 for the plugs. Do you lot think this is about right would would 7's be a better option perhaps?

Can anyone help? Need a couple of interior bits for my uk lwb zed,the panels are grey,one is of the passengers side targa,and the other one is the centre panel out of the boot.

Hi All, quickie I have just had new brakes and fluid installed and I have been told that they were bled to the callipers. Should they be bled to the ABS pump or am I barking up the wrong tree? Or do you do both? Cheers.

I have a clonk on my drivers side, which I think to be my front upright (not fully investigated yet) My questions are, where do I get one for a reasonable cost? Are they serviceable? https://conceptzperformance.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/FrontSuspension.png I can find lots of camber arms and adjustable parts, just not this. Thanks Mark

Silly question really but what marks on the timing belt go where. I guessed that the arrow FR -> means pointing forwards (the way you would drive), but which mark do you start with on the crank? Cheers...

Well my dash has started to lift around the vent and I'm looking at pulling and repairing it but come across this on flee bay ,has anyone got one of here and how did it fit ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WHITE-STITCH-DASH-DASHBOARD-LEATHER-COVER-FITS-NISSAN-300ZX-Z32-1990-1996-/351217409217?fits=Model%3A300+ZX&hash=item51c6305cc1:g:Rg0AAOSw54xUW1LH

Ok I'm after a bit of advise I'm going to be back in the uk in around 6 weeks and I need to get my car insured. I'm not concerned about the cost as I have a clean licence, it is kept in a good area and I'm a sensible age. The car is quite modified and has significant value (to me at least) So a few questions, Which company is good for an agreed value classic policy? Less hassle the better What needs to be done to get an agreed value in place? And how long does this take? I also have no idea what the value of my car would be, where have people got there values from? Anyone who knows my car have an idea what I should insure it for?

rite am swapping out the tt power steering pump i have all the stuff to do it, does the tt and the n/a power steering pump use the same size belt?

What length wire should suffice for head unit and 5x speakers? Is 12 gauge overkill as I'm using that for the Base anyway? Sent from my VG30DETT

So, after another winter off the road finally got round to getting her back on the road following a visit to Mark @ Automodz for a new stage 2 ceramic Competition Clutch & a few other bits & pieces + a custom remap from Noel Turbonoz who has produced results pushing 400bhp. To say i'm happy is an understatment, took her to Santa Pod on Wednesday for DWYB & to test the new set up out and it was big smiles all round. So just want to say massive thankyou to Mark & Noel once again. Few pics to share of the day Looking forward to seeing everyone @ Japfest & doing some track time there (no drifting though this …

I noticed this chap had retained the tango rear lights as an OEM statement, like me, and thought to myself, WOW, that wing must be OEM + at the most then, I wonder if I could keep to my original OEM intentions with a wing like that as well. And then I put the bottle of JD down and walked away.

Hi all, Well the day came for me to say goodbye! I'm no longer a Z owner :( I've been in talks about selling the car to another Zed lover from the Isle of Man for a few weeks now. I've been assured it's going to a great home. Not in a rush for another car just yet but may buy another Z in the future. Thanks Dan

This is probably the dumbest question asked but will any transmission or oil fluid leak when I take the starter motor out as the starter is at the bottom? And to make 100% sure this is what I am removing isn't it?

Just discovered that my Z has a coolant leak on the front of the engine, the second pipe below the radiator inlet(I think its an inlet?) pipe. It only starts to leak when the engine has run for a minute but then gets bad. After looking it appears the previous owner has put some grunge all around the pipe to stop it.. Does anyone know what this pipe connects to? and if its expensive job :( Thanks

Will these fit a Z ? Stance fitment handling etc? Price? Bit out of touch with all this. Getting my Z from gazwoz next week, if wheels clean up ok will keep them or perhaps replace with these. Thanks. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLITZ-TECHNOSPEED-Z1-RACING-ALLOY-WHEELS-18-INCH-5X114-3-DEEP-DISH-JDM-RIM-ENKEI-/322043230583?hash=item4afb45b977:g:ImsAAOSwa-dWrOxm

Hi All, Pulled up today and there's a buzzing on the boot on the right hand side under a cover next to the drivers side rear wheel. The cover is different than on the passenger side. What's under there that's running with the ignition off?? Cheers.

Reading an interesting article about Fairlady Z32 Pro Shop Zone at the moment: https://gazoo.com/car/pickup/Pages/vehiclenavi_160330.aspx?MAKER_CD=B&CARTYPE_CD=27&GENERATION=-2 (Google Translate does a reasonable job)

So today I'm working this evening, the day is mine! The sun is out as well, winner! Got up nice and late and gave her her first wash this year a treated her to a fresh layer or polish and wax. And some close ups to show that shine we all lust over. Then on to the sensible stuff, checked all the fluids, double checked the torque on the wheel nuts, they've been on and off a lot recently. And checked the tyre pressures, dropped a few PSI through winter. Now I'm waiting, car in the air while the boys have it on the hunter sorting out the geometry. So far I've had three people stop me and saw what a nice car it is and a few people pointing at it as I drive alo…

I took out the panel underneath the steering wheel to try and install my ebc. Can anyone give some insight into what any of the wires might do? Aftermarket/stock Green wire unconnected near the box on the panel I took off. Possibly an earth? Also a yellow and white wire together wit connectors on the end, but not attached to anything. Then last in this photo is the plug above, not attached to anything? Using horrible crimps. Another picture of the same place Then this was in the radio cubby, coming from the dash. I'm guessing the copper wire is an earth, but what about the ones that lead to a plug, maybe for defi gauges?

Does anyone have a brake master cylinder brace they could get some decent measurements off? I'm looking into getting a metal fabricator mate of mine to make me one. Best I've given him so far is some pictures off Google.
