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…

Hi guys, not that I have £10.000 to spend, some one might, just wanted to get opinionshttp://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/nissan/300zx/nissan-300zx-tt-silver-streak/5250227 of the more knowledgeable zed owners on value for money.

I now have the parts to complete my manual conversion, the donor parts are from an NA, I need to understand how to wire up the ASCD cancel switch for the clutch , can anyone help, What is odd is that the black switch on the brake pedal was removed ( ASCD cancel switch )and the wires joined together , yet the cruise control still engages correctly and cancels correctly when I press the brake pedal, in other words all works fine , but to my mind it shouldn't. what is going on ! I have also looked at the diagrams previously posted and the donor NA pedal has a white switch which I assume is the ASCD switch to be wired in, however the diagrams suggest that it should…

I have asked this before but cant find the thread, best place to use for removal of the rear screen needs to come out for paint

Howdy do zedders.. I've just got hold of a black/dark grey interior, well everything bar the seats to replace all the tweed. Anyway, I want to give it a good clean before I fit it and just wondered if anyone knows the best way to clean any ground in dirt out of the fabric? I believe it's the original alcantara interior. The thing I'm concerned about is not damaging the backing or the fabric.. Has anyone got a good way to clean it without causing damage? Thanks in advance for the advice..

Hi guys I am after help ,anybody know about red zed he is selling on eBay? Is it cosher? Any advice would help 6950 cash

So as per the title I attended a rolling road day today. The guys that were doing the run didn't know how to set the Zed for the run and I ended up with some lower than expected numbers. They admitted to me that they weren't sure how to play it. For those that do or have run an auto on the rolling road, what is the key to getting them set on the rollers for future runs? Cheers, B00m

Can someone clarify, I am due to collect next Saturday however the Reg isn't coming back as anything on the Gov MOT Check, Car Check and also on Insurance database I have tried putting it different ways to no avail. Hope I'm not wasting my time.

Hi all, Is any one using these spark plugs? Are they a replacement of the pfr6b-11b? I ordered these on the quick off Opie oils as I had about 10mins before the offer ended, They had 20% off hoping they are ok or the replacement model. Thanks Dan

https://www.gumtree.com/p/nissan/ads/1152810994?EDID=ULQDVYT-GZR2Y-4BIUX2-CRYCUE-52JO2S-v1 Anyone recognise this bronze convertible. Looks very clean but I'm not sure the cream suede suits the brown colour, was it a stock option in 96?

Help. My car radio whistles badly with the pitch of it increasing with the engine revs. What the heck do I do to cure this. It's worse now a crossover has been fitted

Hi, I'm looking at some refurbed RX8 wheels, in black, that are local to me and a good price. Is / has anyone else run these rims? Any pics? As far as I can tell they should fit. Cheers!

so am stripping the car down ready for paint in 2 week. whats the best way to remove the door handles do I need to remove the glass and runner first ? looks tight in there all the door cards are off

As my car is an Auto converted to Manual, I have 3 balance bars, 1 has an extra pipe fitting (manual?) and the other two don't (Auto?), my question is does it matter which is fitted on a converted car? that is to say, do I need the extra vacuum fitting , I've read somewhere that it's a clutch booster vacuum hose fitting, do I have a clutch booster on my conversion?? Thanks in advance guys Rich

Hi after reading lots of threads and guides for installing boost controllers and gauges, they all seem to be for LHD. I know the components are the same but still is confusing. I am keeping the EGR for now but want to delete the Avi,s and PRVR. Getting to the wastgates is a pain I assume it's easier from underneath. So far.

Where do you buy these as 1 of mine is broken sadly. The pipes that run under the car. Not sure if it's worth doing the brake lines at the same time?

Hi guys, just said I'd let everyone know, Stillen is doing 15% off all Polyeurathane styling parts:thumbup1:

Ive had a few things done on the lead up to my MOT (spot of welding, tyres, etc) but yesterday during a fake MOT I have found the N/S rear anti roll bar drop link has snapped between the lower thread and the link (smooth bar section) so I need some links. Also the O/S steering rack gaitor looks like its been mauled by a tiger and is hanging off by a thread. A garage also advised me that the rear discs, pads, shoes and fittings could do with a change although off the record (!) he said they would be find for the MOT! A quick google (ebay actually) has found me this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300-ZX-1984-1990-FRONT-PAIR-STABILISER-ANTI-ROLL-BAR-DROP-LINK-x…

Looking for inspiration on how to cleanly affix a dashcam to a Z32 (so pics please), as the missus got me a cheap one a few weeks back which does the job. It's certainly not the easiest car to get a neat cam setup, with the position of the cigarette lighter and most of the windscreen being out of reach! Currently I just have it mounted below the mirror with the wires dangling. It's one of these.

does anyone know were the end of this pipe connects to thanks
