Hi all, i have searched and found the threads about that damn annoying bonging noise when you go over 110mph, but my car is making the same noise each time you come to a stop ( ie in traffic ) ! Anybody know how i can stop this as its really doing my head in Thanks John

Still considering my options in regards to putting non-Land Rover seats in my Landy. Thanks to Mr Dixon I have a pair of Z32 cloth seats anytime I want them, however, it would be nice at some point to tart them up a little (particularly handy when I eventually come to sell it) so...what are the cheapest leather or (more likely) vinyl seat covers out there for the Z32? I know with most of the cheaper options, if you fit them yourself they ruck and gather like nobodies business. Although I'm trying to do this as cheaply as possible I'd definately pay to get them put on by a pro as there's nothing worse than seats that are poorly fitted...I'd rather keep them cloth. Che…

I think im having a few few problems?? 1. does my car have aircon?? or is it the Econ 2. my Z dosent blow out hot air but only luke warm at 40 and when the fans are on the Econ light comes on. Is this right?? i was thinking that the Econ was aircon and stuck on hence the warm not hot air if you know what i mean?? Also first start of the day it takes about 15 to 20min for the choke to switch off (runs at 1500rpm) Any help would be super many thanks O and its a 93 TT Manual Dave

does the 300zx (specifically a 1995 series 4, as i didn't think the series 1 did) have a cabin filter or pollen filter my air flow to the cabin vents seems lower than it should be and i was wondering if there were filters that needed cleaning, and if so where i would find them

What is the best way to take off in a J-Spec N/A Auto? Is it using the gears manually or in D? I ask as in D with overdrive off and power on, when flooring it after the brief wheelspin the car doesnt seem to "take off" really until highger in the rev range? Is this normal?

in the 50 mph bit. A1***reg?

my cars been using oil like its going out of fashion,drives fine,pulls hard,no misfires,no nasty noises,idles fine,revs without hesitation. its spat the dipstick out a couple of times at high revs (6-7k) and spat oil allover the battery and turbo etc no smoke at all on tickover no matter how long its left, blip the throttle and there will be a puff of black smoke followed by a puff of blue smoke. drive the car normally and theres no smoke at all, open it up and you can notice a blue haze in the mirror,not loads but if you keep an eye on the mirror you can see it, coming down through the gears to a stop say off a sliproad sometimes when I stop a puff of smok…

Hi. The heater wont blow cold most of the time, regardless of whether econ is pressed, or how low you set the temp'. Its freeezing when i press 'def' button, occasionally it says cold for a few minutes afterwards in 'auto' I have done searches on heaters, air con etc + the fan in the rooflight is free+ whirring away well, the coolant level is good, no 'bypasses' of any kind.........as far as i know. I found a auto-diagnostic, but doesnt work on my 1992 car. Climate did work ok, for the first few days but maddening now its playing up. :smash: Anyone got any ideas? cheers :duffer:

Pearl white zed parked on Broadstreet on Weds night. Had big green/indiglo looking nissan sticker in front window....

Yesterday I had a red light show up on the dash, had a look in the manual and it aint on there, might be be because it's a jap car and a uk manual. It's on the right hand side of the hand brake light. it's red and looks like something with heat waves coming off it.

Hey everyone, Just wanted to post up the new updated page for my Z of Cardomain.com. When i first posted my cars profile back in June 07, my goals where to add a big bodykit but ive realised i really want to make my car into a 2000spec model as best i can replucate that model. I have been researching the later model Zs throughly and found alot of improvements went into the z32 over the 10 years of production so i want to add those improvements as much as possible. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2645958 Im still building the site and theres plenty of stuff i still need to do but I hope that something useful is there for someone to use on their own Z La…
