Gday fellas, i have tracked down one of my timing issues with my Zed. i have a Jspec TT 2+2 ,manual. my car was converted from auto 2 manual in japan. The ppl that did my conversion havent hooked up my neutral switch, the physical switch is hanging out of the tranny but there isnt anything connected 2 it. is there any way i can connect 2 female spade connectors and wire them up 2 the harness 2 save myself buying a new alternator/tranny harness... I found this post very helpfull but it still leaves a few questions unanswered. [ http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=1001668&forum=technical&dtSearch=4 ] Over and out,…

Righto, I'm getting what feels like a wiggle coming from the rear, yes that sounds funny I know, but seriously guys....... Now, the best way to describe this is that only at speeds over 40 or so whenever I go over those painted lines that you usually get on approach to a junction, you know the ones? ripples, cracks or even cats eyes if I hit them right, I'm getting a weird steer from the rear feeling, kind of wobbles about and I find myself gripping the wheel to fight it ffs. So I'm thinking is this could be a problem with the hicas, the hicas light doesn't come on, only apart from when you switch the ignition on and goes off when engine starts, which is normal,…

You were heading down The Street through Tongham towards the A31. Couldn't make out any details such as colour or any level of body detail as my glasses had buckets of condensation on them- I was in the bunch of 6 mountain bike riders going the other way. :)

I read in a few threads earlier in the year, and a few years ago that there was someone who sold a double din 300zx dash board. Would really appreciate one of these as i have a full kenwood pack including bluetooth and ipod and sat nav, and im quite partial to my double din to be honest. Any help much much appreciated.. Failing that, how would you like a little weekends work legrath??

i think someone doesnt like vents! http://www.barryboys.co.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=25181 found it while lookin for somethin "chav" to laugh at.

Thinking of buying this http://www.cruising4pussy.co.uk/store/product_info.php/products_id/267 It's really only for when i come over to the UK as i always stay in hotels, cars don't get nicked over here, well 3 did last year but they were found next day, lol anyways, anyone got one of these type of alarms ? anyone had Bob fit it as i'd prefer him to. :) it works of a mobile sim, if i get a simple pay as you go UK sim, do you HAVE to keep topping up the sim to retain it ? over here you must add at least 20 quid a year to retain a payg sim. cheers smithy

black Z coming out of ASDA Grangemouth today, nice motor and even nicer looking driver ;).

Back pressure or no back pressure.

I`ve seen a few cars on the road with black reg plates not old but new cars is this allowed because ive been wanting to put them on my car but not sure its allowed, i know you can with the older cars.

Anybody got a spare one lying around, or wheres the best place to get a new one ?? Phoned Nissan today, mainly for a laugh ! :rolleyes: Crazy price and over a week to wait !! Car is an 89, tt, auto. Cheers. Alan...............

hi forgetting my previous posts and putting all these symptons together I have a series 1 SWB TT Auto test drove it and all was fine came back out an hour later DRIVES PERFECT but the revs go a bit up and down on tickover it smells a bit of petrol round the engine bay SOMETIMES nowhere else cant see any leaks Drives with great performance exhausts seem a bit sooty considering ive done only about 5 miles and heres the one put into drive or reverse and most of the times its wanted to cut out on me didnt the first few times what shall i do for the ecu check as Id like to sort on the weekend ta chris

......someone get this over a speed bump? lol :shock:

Ok I have taken the plunge and decided rather than piss around with a autobox im gonna have a manwell fitted , its booked for the 24th feb at SWZ and i cant wait really :nana2: :nana2: :nana2:

No i dont want to know what colour i should go for but rather how much in average you can expect to pay for a respray on a Zed. Ive never had any car resprayed so i really have no idea how much money it costs. How much did your respray cost and where did you go ? At the moment im thinking a Kandy colour would be nice? failing that just a straight black respray, or the Skyline baby blue colour or somthing

Finally got round to finnishing my interior! Pain in the ass but very satisfying, if you are thinking of doing this yourself I would recommend it. Anyway let me know if it meets to everyones approval! Andy P.S Cheers to Luke At the Z Centre for excellent servise on supply.

I need some paintwork doing, and my usual bodyshop is stacked out with work. Does anyone know of a good bodyshop in Norfolk ? Thanks

I've just fitted my cats brought off PHNW to my 300zx tt 1992 import, but now it wont start it turns over but wont catch. any idea? cheers carl

Hi guys, Im having a new exhaust fitted by longlife in Leeds on Saturday. What do you guys think i should get? and why.

Body shop have advised they cant fit the 99 spec front to my 92 import. The mount does not line up at all with the new bumper and they have had to order new mount from nissan after discussing it with them. Anyone come across this problem before? I always thought it was straight replacement.

Hi Wayne check this site out if you havnt already seen few black zeds for sale one swb, plus other cars, they are in Southend. They import as well so could look out for one for you click me
