Hello all, I recently bought a FET 360 turbo timer it was out of a nissan not sure what model? it has a nissan key lock adapter and loom I have no instructions how to install. Is there anyone out there who has installed this type of turbo timer and who can tell me how to install it? theres a white plug with 3 pins on it which I think plugs into the ignition barrel? with red/yellow and blue wires on it, theres a black wire probably earth? two blue wires the same but with connectors which I can plug into each other but come from the same box, a white wire, grey wire and another white wire with red stripes, I have no idea where these go! any info would be great!!!

8:30pm on Bridge Street last night. Seen you a couple of times now. Red zed, maybe aftermarket front bumper. Big aftermarket wheels, rear spoiler. Was it you? ;)

how hard are these to change and how much are they? the nearside doesnt look too bad once the battery is off but the offside looks a bit awkward from the top i havnt checked access from underneath yet. the reason i want to change them is im still having an overfuelling problem even with the boost leaks sorted, i know they are thirsty cars but im only getting around 150miles per tank and its not massivly modified and the back of the car keeps getting covered in black soot which is a nitemare to clean off :headvswal

My car has been off the road for a while and I haven't got around to getting it MOT'd. Anyway, I decided today that I'd give it a service and take it for the MOT tomorrow, hoping it would pass and I can take it to the Festival of Speed on Friday. :) So I changed the oil, etc and then decided I'd better check the bulbs as one always seems to fail on the way to the MOT station. I found that when I indicated left it would flash much quicker than when I indicated right. I had a look round the car and found that the front indicator wasn't working. :headvswal I took it apart and found that the bulb/holder were both pretty corroded, so I tried cleaning them up, but t…

Whats the problem with the standard Auto Z box. Is it under spec'd for the power the car is developing . Are all high power autos as unreliable. I have had 2 Auto Z's A UK 91 Spec which was rebuilt once(2001). When it went second time I converted to Manual no problems since.(2002) still going And a low mileage SWB TT hardtop auto.

Good to meet you and your missus at the Reading Jap Meet - it's a regular event - 3rd Tuesday of the month. And we often retire to the pub for the odd sherbert afterwards ! :duffer: In case you were wondering - I am Eileen's other half - the Rex driver - lol :D

Feel free to update your ride section everyone :duffer: :cool:

anyone needing the 1meg ohm resistor needed for this simple job just pm me your address and ile pop one in the post to you as ive found a very good source and have a healthy supply on stock :) greedy people need not apply :D

Just wondered what the figure is as different sites say different things. Also wondered how much difference to that time my mods would make, if any difference straight through exhaust, chipped ecu, induction, 1bar boost...

In my Z, the standard PSI gauge either reads way off the clock when the electrics + engine is off (past -14) or when electrics + engine is on it reads way above +14 (off the clock again) But its also limited to 5K revs. Any ideas why the gauge is being weird and why im limited?

Does anybody know where i can get some of the dash trimming kits? To replace the stuff that goes around your centre console, your windscreen air vents, your reading light, and your targa release handles? Cheers Ethan
