Black J spec High rear spoiler, gold wheels. Not sure if this is the car i've seen here before and posted up, if so then its not a member's car?

Well the day has come and my Z has gone to a new home :( :( I will miss her but I am positive the new owner will care for her as much as I did. But I will still pop on here every now and then out of habbit more than anything else. lol I am sure the new owner will be along shortly, or at least when the M5 clears up. Thanks for all the help in the past guys.

Hi guys, quick question...myt seem bit stupid but are the apexi induction kits you can buy for the 300zx the same as that fits to skyline r33 gtr? they look the same however would it just be the case of buying new adaptor plate to make them fit to the 300zx? thanks kesh

Anyone tried or even heard of Cooper Zeon's for the Zed? I have been offered them at the same price as Avon ZZ3's but have never heard of them. :confused:

Going down Westwood Ho about 9 A.M , gave you a wave maybe left it a bit late.

Hi Now in the stage of putting my engine back together after rebuild, unfortunately the majority of tags i put on plugs, pipes etc are not readable (woopsy) I saw a colour diagram a little while ago on here which noted what all the plugs were for and what connected to what. Tried to search for it but cant find it, tried 300zx manual and that isnt much help for me. Anyone know of the diagram or where i could try?

I have just fitted an Autogauge Air Fuel gauge to my Zed using the pin on the Ecu as stated here:- http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=33722 Problem is that when I started her up she idled really high and wouldnt come down even after a 5 min drive around town. Is this something to do with disconnecting the ECU from the battery? I have only checked it once so far but thought it best to check before I do any damage by driving her!! Thanks in advance

Red, standard but with black alloys Eastern Ave going into Hamstel last night. White, london road headed into West Road. And might I say what a lovely car. Not seen anything for months and 2 in 2 days.

heading towards milton keynes on the m40 it looked the same as mine but it had a big 300zx sticker on the side it looked very nice and really stood out and much better than the 2 skylines going the other way

who was it who found a company in the midlands to recon tubs for about £300 each i thought it was boldy but i cant find the thread

hi all. i had to break a red TT LWB a month or 2 ago and kept the wings, doors and rear hatch. also got the diff/subframe/etc so if anyone wants anything let me know. can deliver for beer tokens which is all most of the stuff will cost anyway. im on 07930 168 603 also, if anyone is in the wolverhampton/surrounding areas or if anyone can point me to why the engine doesnt want to run in the new car then i'd be very greatful. cheers. si.

I am taking the engine out as after getting the inlet manifold off and fighting with the heads (which I lost) I figure it's easier. After a whole afternoon of searching I've found this link http://www.symatix.co.uk/300zx/EngineRemoval/EngineRemoval.htm but it doesn't work :headvswal I have read leaving the autobox is easier and also servicing the tubs to at the same time but can't find a guide for the removal anywhere, any pointing in the right direction would be appreciated. If anyone in the Cardiff area has done this before and would like to help (quite happy to supply a fee and tea) then let me know. thanks

In the Jap built Z; are the wires going to the Ecu different to the Uk and other models? Installing a boost controller at the mo, but the wires are different to where I looked them up. Throttle, rpm, ground etc.. Has anyone got any diagrams / charts to show what the functions are in a 91TT Jspec car? Cheers.

hi guys, Drove to london yesterday in the zed, whilst on route i felt a slight scrape when on a country road however it only felt like a bumper scrape as i wasnt travelling fast at the time, checked it brieflt at the petrol station shortly after and seemed fine. HOWEVER, once i got to london and got the car parked and came back to it an hour later oil was leaking and had pretty much drained out all of the oil and i could see it was blatently coming from the bottom of the oil sump. The aa came out however reluctantly informed me there was a couple fresh scrapes and the aa would not tow it back as its not covered! after some negotiation and a good chat i managed to g…

Hi all OK swapped the loom for a new one and have replaced the IACV. But I have been left with a misfire. All injectors are connected and I cant find any problems with hoses etc. Do you think it could be that the sensor on attached to the hose on off the IACV is stuffed? There was oil in my air pipes so this will no be in the sensor Im guessing. Would this cause a misfire? Thanks for any help Ill try your ideas on Saturday and see how we go.

A few weeks ago there was a thread about High idle speed on car converted from Auto to Manual. It was mentioned that one of the pins on the ECU needed to be Earthed to ensure the ECU recieves the correct TPS signal. I've been ask by a friend about this, but i can't find the thread and beleive me I have been trying but to no avail.

Just want to hear peoples opinions on changing my Grey Tweed OEM interior to a Blue Seude OEM interior from a 92 model. Is it worth the change, does it look good in a zed???
