does anyone know the % of the stock bias on the 300zx ? am upgrading the brakes i have ksport 356mm 8 pots brakes for the front on the way. i wanted to fit the k sport 330mm 4 pots on the rear want to know what the bias would be over the stock set up logic says the front are going to be stronger so the rear would be fine to uprate to to compensate. also how do you go about with adjustment yes i know some kind of valve but once you did that how could you set the % spit what kind of measurement devices would you use.

Recently done a basic refurb on a set of OEM alloys as I didn't like the gold ones my car came with..... and finally got round to fitting them today after the wheel nuts came earlier than expected. Bravo eBay! I'm thinking these will do nicely for now, until I find the exact path I want to go down with this latest Z!

so more parts have started to turn up for my build today the recraro speed seats turned up. more stuff to come i was out they rung to say they were here with them, i told them to go round the back and leave in back garden, they said yes thats fine am on the way home, got back home to find them just left out side in the car park lucky i got back in time any one could have just walked off with them, very exciting just a few weeks away from paint now and the car is back on the road.

Can you use the air- fuel gauge for the fuel gauge only as there hard too get hold of in blue found a company that's got the tachometer-speedo in blue but not the fuel gauge

My air con rad needs replacing :( ,where will I get a new one, or is it Nissan only?

Where do I get a replacement set of pedal rubbers or foot pedal covers, non chavtastic though. either way, whatever I end up with I need to be sure that they are the correct fit , not just generic tat Cheers Sayers

I am going to be saving for a respray as soon as I get the holiday in the US over and have paid off credit card again..... lol So far I have:- Stay same - Porsche Amethyst Metallic 38A and just get her stripped back to bare metal all over again..... AX8 - Brickyard Red Nissan Midnight Purple - LP2 Midnight Purple LV4 Midnight Purple 2 LX0 Midnight Purple 3 OR MY NEW FAVOURITE..... ULTIMATE BLACK OPAL - LAC Audi 'Velvet Purple'

Has anybody used this or had any feedback from it? I'm in the market for an EBC and can't seem to find anything good or bad. Any comparisons with the profec b spec 2? http://greddy.com/featured/42

This is the second time it's happened so I'm curious if anyone else has had the same issue. Basically, the horn randomly just started blaring away. Hasn't been used for a week or so. And joi wasn't in it pressing the horn button lol

I'm wiring these into my Z and looking for a few pointers? Can the wires shared between the two be spliced into the point in the ECU harness? (Such as RPM, throttle) or are you better to have space between them? And for the ground are you better using two separate ground wires from the ECU for each, or have all 4 onto a single ground? And if using a single ground which order should the grounds go in? I.e AVCR1---SAFC1---ACR2---SAFC2 OR AVCR1--- AVCR2--- SAFC---1 SAFC---2 etc.

Still looking for a zed to purchase, any member know of this one, kit not to my taste though.

So my fan shroud is cracked and cable tied, looks a mess, I was thinking of fibreglassing over the top of it and then painting it, anyone tried this? Would it work?? Thanks Rich

Hi, looking for some detailed photos of the above to see if it's up to the job of a re-purpose. Cheers. -A

A review of the 2+2, and a shortie review coming soon. Mostly positive, more so than the LS one. Reddit is still in disbelief that they ever made a 2+2 TT :lol: [video=youtube;ZBc8IC-lycg]

I'm after a pair of rear traction rods, the short ones at the front of the rear hub. Going to be removing my adjustable ones as they are just over complicating alignment.

So after looking since October 2015 Ive found a workshop, of sorts... Its a 40ft container with a window cut in it and water and electricity, all for £15/week. Im allowed to do anything I like in it, as the landlord said, he doesnt care. He said it it catches fire, it will only burn everything inside anyway! Ive got a work shop area at the end, car in the middle and space at the front for a modern chic living/dining area... i mean space to dump stuff like bonnets and interior bits etc! Width is a bit tight, Ive parked the car against one wall to allow maximum space and ive got just enough space to work in, so far...

The problem I have:- I manage a few miles and then lose 1,2,3,D and R....... turn her off...... wait 2 or 3 minutes, start and get another 10 yards or so and then repeat process to limp home..... 100 yards at a time! Seems to be correct fluid level on dipstick.... I haven't touched her in months for my own Sanity and fear of Divorce....... I needed to take a step back and read up....... lol I have finally got enough time in leu to book wednesday off work..... as long as it isn't peeing it down or blowing a gale outside still...... (Wife at work, kids at school) I am going to warm her up and try to test the transmission again and see if she throws up any co…
