Hi, just bought a 300zx TT and the suspentsion is well bouncey at the rear, i knew this when i bought it but now i'm a bit puzzled about the best road to go down. I've had a search around the infoweb and found Koni front/rear shocks plus an AVO spring kit from MSW for £580, seems like an alright deal but was hoping that someone could tell me if this is the right road to go down. some advice would be apreciated. Andy.

hi all i have just taken possesion of a 300zx and the turbo gauge on the dash reads mainly on the negative side .. is this right i was told this could blow my turbos if not set correctly ..

It was about time I sorted mine out ready for the photo shoot (if it ever happens!) so I've sorted a niggling little problem today. Can you spot it? :D Before..... After.... :D

http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/169166.htm What do you think of that?

Right I bought the decat kit from 2fast2cool, very impressed with the quality. On the other hand I am not impressed with Nissan and there shity positioning of bolts on the elbows. Have managed to to do the passenger side, apart from the little heat shield bolt which has rounded (waiting for the wife to come home so I can to B&Q for more dremel bits) How the hell do I do the top 2 bolts on the drivers side while the car is on axle stands? was going to leave them but since all six of the studs that hold the cats on decided to shear I am kind of comitted. Also I really need the car for Thursday as I have 2 Job Interviews. Anyone done this without drop…

Hi Guys (& girls), I have been experiencing some very strange symptoms when messing with my boost controller. Basically, it is overboosting when the EBC is on. I have fiddled with all of the settings and have even had an expert play with it as well (you know who you are!). This has led me to think that maybe one of the wastegate actuators could be sticking. :confused: However, when I turn the EBC off I get the normal 7psi safety boost. This doesn't make sense to me as I would imagine if it was a sticky wastegate then the pressure would not stop at 7psi and it could overboost regardless of whether the EBC is on or not. :confused: The final…

Hi Does anyone know the speaker size of the front speakers as mine are origionals and ripped and i dont want to take off the skins today just to measure them Thanks Chris

ive had this on my watch list for a few days. i would like to know if this one is suitable for my zed, is it a good price ?. i have been offered cheaper ones but the way i look at it, i would rather pay more now for a good top spec one than have to buy a cheaper one only to have to upgrade it at a later stage. what do you think ? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=280116299115&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=018
