Hi, I have some Stern ST2 alloys. I need a set of nuts, but the type needed are the sort that actually go inside the hole in the wheel a bit. Like a sleeve/spigot. They are not just tapered. I have tried a few places but seem to get nowhere. Any ideas? I also need 4 long studs if anyone has any. Cheers.

Hello chaps Anyone know where i can get a set of these from at a reasonable price Cheers all

I flashed you, nice clean motor you got :)

..on my decision to sell the Zed. my old zed looked the part imo, it looked clean and ran ok. however, underneath it was rotten, the sills were rotting through, the tub seals were shot, there were annoying little patches of rust coming through on the bodywork, it squeaked and rattled were interior trim had broken etc... and most of all, it was an auto. i originally decided i would blow a load of money rectifying these problems (somewhere in the region of 5k). instead i sold it for 1600 notes... :smash: :cry: the 1600 notes together with the 5k then gave me a particularly sizable pot to buy a new zed with. Lee of Import-ance had 1 that he had freshly imported …

can anyone take a look at this and tell me if its good enof to run 14.5 psi on its my cars chipped ecu rom http://www.geocities.com/daverandom2006/300zx.zip

Right I have an import converted to mph, now as I am takeing Audrey with me to Aus I will need to convert back to kmh but I don't want to see the clocks go past the 180kph and not stop. So is there any way I can keep the same sweep of the needle but read kph and be accurate all the way up to 300kph Cheers Scrawni

Hi After having to jump start the car my turbo timer hs stopped working. It has no power as far as I know at all. I don't kow if it had stopped working before I had to jump start it or if it was the power spike from the jump starting that has broken it. Does anybody know if there is an internal fuse that may have blown or better still does anybody have the ability to repair it. (he says hopefully). Darrell

:cry: Ive just failed the MOT on 48 seperate counts.Every light on the car seems to not work all of a sudden, but I seem to get to work But the flipping car failed the emitions without a single puff of smoke at any time :cry: Its saided through every year except teh flipping emitions which where due to faulty PCV, which I replaced last year.

Are these any better than the zx calipers?

called into a petrol station today in huddersfield cos there was a nice silver zed in and i needed a drink i was talking to the chap who owned it and he reckoned for 8 grand he could get 800bhp out of it it was a n/a auto...........is this possible cos he reckoned someone was gonna do it for him without changing the engine 800 bhp out of a n/a surely not :shock:

I've got a small crack appeared on one of my lower arms about 1.5" long up the side of the tension rod bolt holes. As in the FAQ section: http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=22382 Only noticed cos I'm changing from poly bushes to the adjustable Powertrix rods. Would it be safe to weld this or am I in for even more wallet pain? It's not as bad as the ones in the pics in the FAQ thread. What's involved in changing the lower arm? Big job?

Want to change the steering wheel to something a little better looking and was wondering what i could take out the engine bay that is realated to the cruise con and is there pods without these on/off buttons on them??? A good link would be good as a "how to" would also be good.

Does anybody have the wiring diagram for the Apexi SAFC II or is anyone able to explain where each wire goes please???

Hi Guys, Looking for a z expert in the Manchester area for service and cambelt change. Can anyone recommend someone or themselves? Cheers Rob.

I'm saving up a we speek and scraping together coppers to get it back on the road. I sit every lunchtime and look at this website and watch YouTube vids of the z in a daydream. Anywhoo im popping to my dads this weekend so i can go and say hello while im there, although i can't drive the bloody thing cause i canceled my insurance!!! Ah well, SOON!!!!!!!!!! :dance:

anyone who cant get cabin vent or footwell to blow check this.....i've been having trouble these last few weeks getting the cabin and foot vents to blow i tried every kind of setting in all weathers but the air stream always went up the windscreen i was beginnin to think a motor was broken :(....so did a read of the diagnostic and adjustment...and there were no errors...however one bit mentioned when you disconnect your battery you can lose your settings or rather they revert to default...so after a trial and error i found the setting which adjusts the difference between top and bottom cabin temp....tried a couple and hey presto warm feet again :) How to ignitio…
