yes i know i am anoying to ask another question about the AIVs but done a search and there is so much on them and all the posts i have looked at dont answer my question...... Looking at this guide http://s95014253.onlinehome.us/63104/137858.html at the begining he talks about disconnecting the shared vacuum lines the AIV has with EGR and stock boost gauge. I have 2 questions. 1. I would like to keep the stock boost gauge functioning. He says about connecting the vacuum line straight to the balance bar after the AIV solenoid is chucked out. He looses me a bit here. Is there a spare nozzle on the balance bar to attach this line, and will the line stretch co…

Anyone know the size of the banjo connection on the clutch slave cylinder please?

I've got this Power Enterprise .Power -Hybrid Boost Control and need help and advice to set it up.Diagram would be invaluable!! as all it came with was in Japanese :D

OK im starting a new thread for this This is while doing a plenium water bypass. Has anyone bothered removing the metal water pipes from the throttle bodies by drilling them out as it says on tt.net? (2001th post yey) ! :D

Why would my 1.6 be so heavy on fuel at the moment? i do have a hole in the exhaust, is there anything else i could check which effects the fuel consumption e.g. plugs? It's starting to get annoying, i even tried a Ecotek valve to improve the fuel econemy.

Hi, I've just got my hands on a J plate TT which is a non runner but I'm looking forward to getting her on the road. Despite saying I wouldn't buy anything until she was running the new 18's and some side skirts are on the way!! But I need some help. I have spark and fuel out of the filter but she still won't start, not even a cough or splutter. So my questions What is the best way to check the injectors are firing? Where can I get the metal bits that hold the connectors onto the various sensors, the previous owner seems to have lost them all so the connectors can just be pulled off the PTU etc. Any other things to check??

thanks for all your help in my previous post, looks like i have a O/S turbo gone, so i recon it time to whip the engne out. can anyone suggest which hoses, gaskets, etc i should replace as a matter of course having taken the engine out and where to get them from (preferably without gettin ripped off) think i should also change cambelt seeing as its unknown when it was last done, what would i need for this, also looking out now for a O/S turbo if anyone has andy secondhand but good ones. mail is brian@rich-tec.co.uk Thanks Andy

Having recently had a kiddie, It's looking like the Zeds days are numbered. It's a 95 TT Auto in Metallic Green, so a really nice colour. Aftermarked 17" rims and a full SS Apexi exhaust system, DVD player, Toad Cat 1 alarm, and Greddy turbo timer. What sort of price would I be looking at/should advertise at...Oh and it's got 53500 miles on the clock. Thanks

Does anyone know what this ECU code means? 42 Fuel temperature sensor circuit The fuel temperature circuit is open or shorted (An abnormally high or low voltage is entered) I pulled the temp sensor plug a couple of days ago because it was getting hot after a combination of booting+hot weather+sitting in traffic, to make the sub fan kick in. So i am also getting a code 13 too. Am i getting the code 42 for the same reason or is it a different issue?

parked up, french plate????? only 300 we saw

I have been told that my japspec tt takes h4 head light bulbs but i remember my last one which was also a japspec and I bought bulbs laser blue halogen bulbs for that but they wouldnt fir. I know its not very important but i would like to know coz i have some bulbs here. thanks

Nice TT Manual right at the entrance to MB at Le Mans. I had a look a few times - looked great! Dave

Reg number NZ**** on crossroads of Tile Hill lane Coventry I waved, but I was in the White Autojap Van, so no response!!

I was heading to Rugeley in Staffs about 12.30/12.40 today, white zed came past me other way, flashed lights. If it was you.....HI :)

http://cars.uk.msn.com/Usedcarguide/article.aspx?cp-documentid=5280443 Nissan 300ZX We found a… 1994 Nissan 300ZX V6 Twin Turbo 3dr coupe, 58,000 miles, £4,000 Best bits – amazing value for the performance, handles well, looks good, plenty to choose from, very reliable if properly maintained Worst bits – confusing range of import and non-import cars, many subject to hideous aftermarket customisation, manual gearbox a weak point (though most are autos), full service history vital Did Funkisi put that part in?? :nelson:

Came up behind me during probably the worst downpour I've ever driven through :eek: Then a couple of minutes later, the roads were bone dry :confused: Nice zed anyway though! Dave

You were going south near Dalwhinnie....................

Today at 5.08pm, it was a dark grey Zed J***NJR, with the emergency wheel on the drivers side, heading north on A1, Spotted just south of the A63 Selby turn off. :D

i was behind a red h reg zx on the way back from petes today about 4 ish when i drove past I beeped and stuck my hand out to make myself seen, the driver was mid 30's with a shaven head. any idea's

has anyone replaced their wing mirrors on their Uk zed with j-spec folding mirrors and make them fold? Do you need anything else apart from the actual mirrors? Obviously you need the j-spec mirror control to have the switch to make them fold but anything else? On my prelude the j-specs had a relay box between the mirror control and the mirrors to make them fold. Any ideas?
