Went to see WWE last night and saw one parked up down a road, possibly earls court road.

Hello all, Can anyone tell me if there is a test to check if the air con needs re-gasing apart from switching it on! I used mine about a month ago and was cold but I used it the other day and now its hot, I am wondering if theres a fault or not?? When it comes to using the air con (as i dont have a manual) to switch it on I presume you press auto then set temp to 10c and then should come on same as the heating?, I know this sound stupid and thick but I do wonder if I am doing it right!! :wack: Cheers all!!! :cool:

http://www.300zx-twinturbo.com/manual/el/112.gif What do these abbreviations stand for? A S C D Are these blower relays just for the fan speed or for Dirrection? What is the Time Control Unit for. Wipers??? Reason being That I have wipers that don't switch off. Have repleced Grey Relay unit and an other motor. Also my fan Direction is Fubar too as it will onlt blow at the face. Any attempt to change dirrection results in clicking and nothing else. I think its the splines on the motor and have ordered a replacement, but seeing the diagram thought i ought to ask the questions.

Am I right in thinking the colder the air taken in by the air filter the better the engine performs or have i got it wrong.....as usual??

can anyone tell me where to get the instructions on how to fit the rear indicator lense conversion, i've seen it somewhere :)

help!!! just got my new zx home from the salvage yard the body is A! but some plank took the plug leads plugs and balance bar off, it will turn over with a socket on the bottom pully but if you try to use the starter it fails to turn at all. the reason for it being in the salvage yard was that it had stalled after driving into a large puddle and indurance company would not pay for investigation into engine prob, I know I will have to rebuild the engine but can anyone point me in the right direction as to why it will not turn over. I am used to japars as I have 2 more on the drive and have the expertise to rebuilt this car but just need to know I'm not missing somethin…

My mate dropped her at the docks today. The ship leaves tomorrow for a 7 day passage to Halifax, Canada. Looking like she needs a bit of TLC, I havent even seen the car in almost a year, been stored in my dads garage with the occasion weekend run. Apparently she is driving very well and just completed full service/inspection. I'll be picking the the car up in Halifax at the end of may after a trip back to the UK, then taking the 4000km drive across Canada and the USA. Cant wait TBH. I have a load of spares organised now and I'm hoping to meet up with some Z clubs in Canada and the US on the way through so I'll get plenty of pics. When I get her to my new…

Hi my cruise control is u/s and I've been advised it's probably the cruise control's own ecu which sits under the dash on the drivers side. Anyone breaking a jap spec 92 TT have one going cheap?? cheers
