Poulner, Ringwood, saw it parked up when I took wrong turn on the way to the vets.

Are they exactly the same and perfectly interchangable or do they have different PCDs, bore, etc or different wheel width or something? ie could i stick jap 300zx std wheels on my uk model?

:dance: took about an hour and a half - and most of that was fiddling with a couple of hard-to-get-at nuts and trying to splice some wire together. otherwise it was a simple job, and im no DIY guy! just a question - when the headlights are switched on, the inverter (the little black box) makes a faint high-pitched whistling noise. is this normal? the rear panel seems to work fine - the sun's out so i had to put a thick jacket over my head to see it working. it seems to be quite dull in colour but when compared to the stock picture it seems to be ok. i'll get another picture when its dark tonight. the cool thing is that the light is exactly the same colour as my car!…

Only 20,000 miles. Collectors car, never registered. Stunning this is, I'd loose a limb for this. Would be nice to import over to Europe.

I've come across two diagnostic software for the zx. The one from DTA motorsport called Conzult diagnostic (315 EUR) and one from Concept Z performance called BlaZt consult ($149.99). Is there anyone that has tried or know something about these softwares and could recomend one..?

Hi all. I've been having a couple of issues over the last few months that are mainly niggles, since ztech (thankyou) fixed the major bits. My speedo works intermittently (it's not the speed sensor, ztech checked it); it mainly does one of the following 4 things: Stays at 0. Stays at 180+ Reads speed between 100 and 160 (when driving normally :) ) Sticks at 60 or 120. I'm pretty sure that it's just the loom between the speed sensor and the clocks, as it works when it's been dry for a while and also when wiggled a lot. Additionally, just recently I've noticed that either my fuel consumption has gone mad, or the odometer isn't working. So far I've ha…

Well yesterday after coverering plenty of miles running in i thought, nows probably a good time to lean on this motor a bit and make sure its running correct under some boost! Currently its just set at 7psi, so i give it some WOT from 3k - 4.5k, boost was good 7psi, it pulled ok, but it felt a bit weak! Didnt think nothing of it as im used to it being at 15psi so didnt expect it to be anything too impressive but i did expect more with having gt2530s on there now. Anyhow, later on in the day i thought, i'll give it another pop, and go a bit higher in the rpm range, so..foot down, 3k just creeping into positive boost, 4k niceley sat at 7psi, 5k OMFG!!! all he…

On the Hastings road/Widmore road Junction. Really nice condition and great sounding after market exhaust. H reg I think.

Hi people, I'm breaking my ZX :cry: and needed abit of advice on something. There is a 200sx owner who called me up asking for all the brake discs and calipers as these are an upgrade to his car. He is also after my brake master cylinder. Now I'm not sure how much these are worth due to me being abit of a novice on parts at the moment. But these parts on my car are in excellent nick. So just wanted to know how much you guys recon these are worth or how much I should charge him for these parts. Any help would be appreciated guys. Thanks in advance. :D

HI there Just got my car back from the mechanic as it was hesitating badly on pull off. Said he fixed the TPS. I drove home and all was fine but when I went for another ride but few mins after I got home, the old problem was back??? IS it possible for the TPS to have maybe shifted arpund while driving and therefore cause more problems??? This mechanic is going to think that I am a crack it was working fine till I got home??? Please help someone

My alternator doesn't start charging the car until the revs hit around the 2g mark. I can start the car and it will idle fine (unless the battery is flat) but when you measure the battery voltage, it sits around 12 volts. Raise the engine revs to around 2000 and then the alternator kicks into life and starts charging normally (around 14 to 14.4 volts). Does this happen to everyone or am I lucky enough to have to swap out my alternator ?

Can someone please tell me approx how much leather I will need to replace all the sh!tty tweed panels i.e. door cards, rear seat panels, glove box, center console etc. but not the seats CheerZ in advance
