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.

Am I correct in saying this is the diff oil cooler? Or is it to do with the HICAS? Mine looks fine, but I think one of the pipes is leaking and would just like to know while Im fixing it...

Are both the stock recirc valves the same? I'm trying to iron out a boost problem, and want to try swapping the recircs out. Does anyone have one going spare (or a pair if they are different) to try substituting them out? Cheers all!

Can anyone recommend decent rear subframe bushes? I've been looking at nismo ones but can't find them in the uk.

What's the most reliable and cost effective version of getting conzult or datascan? I need to keep costs down and I don't have a laptop. I have seen an android version of Datascan, is it any good? I just want it for maintenance and fault finding. Is it best to get a cheap laptop and use that? There is so much conflicting and confusion on here regarding this, that I can't figure out what's best. Thanks

Having swapped to. Twinz bumper and nose panel, I have got hold hold of all the runner trim and metal frame work the goes at the top and bottom edge of the nose panel. I have worked out how the top runner trim fits, but I am struggling with the trim and metal bar that locates on the 4 pegs that come out from the rear of the bumper. Picture below of how I think it goes together, but can anyone tell me if this is right?

Does anyone have one of these i can borrow in the telford area? I just need to draw around it. If not id be willing to buy or pay postage if its in a particularly bad shape. Cheers.

Hi guys, There's a thread somewhere detailing the differences on the back/front of UK and J spec clusters. I've searched but can't find it. Thanks

Drivers side window not working. Hot wired the motor and that's working fine, up and down. Switch is activating relay. Opened up relay and contacts are clean but when switched, there is no power going to the motor, either up or down. Any ideas?

Found it on the road next to the car. Concerned it's dropped off the zed. It's about 3 inches across.

Will be looking to convert from Kph to Mph, what's required? Will something like this suffice? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300ZX-PULSAR-SKYLINE-SPEEDO-CONVERTER-DELIMITER-/120446038718?hash=item1c0b24b2be:m:mUs6XY_BzzKtZ2x2ULrOfkA. Thanks.

Hi I'm thinking of getting my Zx this custom made pipe work to relocate the turbos to the front. (Next to the top intercooler pipes either side) Making it easier to replace. I'm not a Mecanhic so I have spent a lot of money getting other to do work on my Zed. When I get this kit made will anyone be interested to get this done to their car also. As I got quoted £700. So if anyone else wants it done too I will get this kit made up for you guys. Hopefully higher amount of people who want this cheaper the price.

will are cars pass mot with hids in ?, i no hids are not ment to go in lights with reflectors and are ment for projector light, the 300 lights are projectors so would that be legal? are the 99 spc lights the same as in the projector part like the ones most of us have ?

It's been suggested it's possible with the heads on, has anyone done it? My zed smokes a fair bit in the morning, but not once warm, hardly losing any oil, so pretty convinced they are to blame. Ive got some jwt cams new HD springs and seals in my z1 order, as well as other bits, I was going to do the timing belt too, Is it enough to have the piston at tdc or do I need to pressurise the cylinder too? I'm trying to do it without asking our mechanics to help, so any tips advice would be appreciated, Worst case it's heads off/ engine out, or I've another engine, but I want to try.

I made a post about a week ago after I noticed just how much my clutch is slipping. After a bit of a look round I need help choosing out of the following 2 clutches; the Sz RPS Max Street (from specialtyz) and the Stage 3 Competition Clutch kit. I know both of these are in fellow members' cars, so has anyone had any problems with either? Cheers

A big thanks too Graham for sorting the red drift gauge out from red l e d s to blue for me a cracking job pleased is a understatment :bow:

I'm going to paint my slicktop 300zx it's currently white so not super flashy or special looking slicktops originally where only made white so I don't want to decrease the value of the car so I'm also wondering if it would decrease the value and I'm also wondering what colour I should paint it if I decide to paint it another colour besides white

What is the pros and cons of the EGR and a PVC delete kit? Should I invest in this or not? We were all taking cars earlier and one of the guys asked did I do the delete kits? He wasn't clear on the benefits. I've seen them sold but truly never investigated the benefits in the Z32 Thanks The Ikon
