Hello all, Does anyone have one of these fitted to their z, or no even if they are available for the zed

where can i buy 1 from, how much, how hard is it to get & to & fit also what does it do?

I'm in need of some money as i've spent a fair whack over the last couple of months. I'm contemplating stripping a lot of the upgraded parts off my zed to sell them and get me back into credit. The parts are as follows: 17" Nismo rays LM - 2 piece alloy wheels with nearly new goodyear eagle f1 gsd3 tyres. Apexi Power Intake which has litterally been on for all of 3 days. Apexi AVCR Boost Controller I also have some spl adjustable upper camber arms and adjustable lower tension rods on but if I take them off to sell is it going to ruin the handling of the car? Do you think this would drastically reduce the appeal and value of the car once…

Hi guys My speedo is stuck on max speed. I've unplugged and plugged the connections at the back several times, but this hasn't cured the fault. Would a faulty converter do this? Could it be the actual speedo unit itself? Could it be a faulty signal from the ECU? Any ideas? Many thanks Jon

I'v got the door card aoff but now I'm stumped, any ideas ? CheerZ Paul

Do you think they will rise in value at all? I'm sure I saw a thread recently about this... I think if I came to sell the car i'd have to strip it back to standard and sell everything seperately at least. You'd think at the moment you could make a lot more money breaking the car up than selling it as a whole.

hi does any one know the measurements to where to put the black strips on the 99spec rear lights please or can some one go and measure there lights for me? :) thanks very much Nick

Hi I have a Strange whirring, buzzing sound coming from the rear of the car. Happens intermediately both when the car is running and when it’s just been switched off. It sounds like a valve releasing pressure in that the sound slowly fades away,( before I can find the exact location) but the sound itself could be electrical in nature like a whirring electric motor, could it be the fuel pump? Any ideas ? Maz

heres my report the camber is way out they couldnt adjust it as my car doesnt have after market adjusters on i was just wonderin whats best to get the strut top adjuster or adjustable top arms????

I'm not a complete idiot, I have scoured a few old threads looking for names of insurance companies that might be able to help me. Basically, I have called all of these: RAC Carole Nash A Plan Heritage Bell Direct Chaucer None of them can help me, because I want an agreed value, it is an import with a shed load of mods. Does anyone know which other companies might be worth a call? Thanks, Mike...

I think the shape of the front bumper lends itself to the Murcielago bumper quite a lot. especially If you have side mount intercoolers. Does anyone know if something like it exists?

C,mon get the camera out and show us what your aftermarket handbrake lever looks like :)

Today I took my car to have it rolling roaded at a garage i've used loads of times before. To give you an idea my car is a 1992 JDM TT Manual Slicktop. It has got basic mods such as apexi filter, kakimoto exhaust, blitz ecu, apexi avcr bc, ngk plugs. I setup the boost controller with a friend the other week who had installed a skyline engine into a 200sx so was pretty confident with installing an apexi avcr. The one thing that baffled him a bit was disconnecting some plugs in the engine bay (is this something to do with the stock safety boost cutting in)??? Anyway 1st run ) 324bhp @ 4820rpm & 364 lb.ft (this boosted to 1.04 on my avcr) …

Hi been trying to get a reach of http://www.autoadvan.co.uk but no one ever answers the phones they got listed. Does anybody know how to get a reach of tony there? a member here gave me all the info but they never ever answer the phones. thank you

Another problem with the Chevy is the engine won't stop with the ignition turned off. It even keeps going with the battery earth terminal disconnected. I know it's obviously the alternator keeping it going but can't find out the cure. Anyone any ideas?

Do replacing the Turbo pipes for hard pipes increase performance in any way? or are they just for show?

Howdy, what is a good performance air filter for a 300ZX TT? My zed is chipped and has boost controller. Standard air filter is nightmare to refit so i might as well get a custom jobbie.

it's off a Skyline, bought it last night. Now we just wait :dance:

Well i kinda liked having the only Zed in my Village, full of Scooby's and the like, and mine the only example of our fantastic car.............. until today :shock: came back from work for my days off, and the garage across the road has a black SWB N/A for sale.... bugger! :cry: On a H plate, Up for £3000. has a tail gate skin on but apart from that a very standard car, oh well :cry: :cry: if any body from mile and miles awasy is interested then i can take a look, must stress though you have to live miles and miles away, so i can have my exclusivness back :tongue: Neil

If you have an auto car but can get hold of a manual engine and box plus ecu what else would be needed to do the swap. I have no clue but im guessing there will be some other parts that I would require, brackets? It looks like an attractive option and I may have found a manual box and engine to transplant.

my 300zx has illuminated badges that fit against the rear 1/4 windows that light up green and say 300zx, has anyone else seen these? are these rare?

Hello All, Seems like its one thing after the other at the minute, now I have a dreaded ticking sound coming from the engine upon start up, once the cars had a run and warmed right up it seems to clear. Obviously the ticking increases in rate with the revs of the engine. Is this an injector problem or something else. The gauge reading on the oil pressure reads about 4ish upon sart up but falls away after some driving time, But it is only the stock dash gauge and is well erratic sometimes it tells me i have nothing at all, especially after driving on motor way and then hitting a traffic jam it falls right off to almost zero!!!! I'm hoping its the gauge thats a t fault…

hi, basicly as im new i cant post in the for sale section. im interested in the exhaust your selling. just wondered if you can email some pics to luke.mitchell5@btinternet.com can possibly collect this weekend! cheers mate
