I recently swapped the engine on my Dec 1994 MK 4 TT Auto and the donor engine from a early 1994 MK3 TT Manual. Can anyone explain what you believe are the differences on the fuel systems?The garage changed the turbos over, and I believe they had to do something with the fuel system at the last minute due to incompatible connections? The car is going back tomorrow for them to trace the petrol smell on acceleration, so anything you could tell me would be really helpful as another forum member has suggested so differences in fuel system compatibility

I was in camberley A30 traffic lights near the firestation. You turn off into the estate and was looking at my Grey K reg zed and waved to me

Hi all, My windscreen washer jets seem to have stopped working..(yes there is water in the bottle!) the noise of the ..er ..jets is still there only..no water! Anyone else had this? thanks Ed

Dunno if anyone else gets this in the morning on the way to work but low morning sun combined with a bit of mist on the windscreen means that I can't see a ruddy thing! Quite sad really since as I approached a bus stop full of people I was blinded and thought I might have been driving into the back of a parked car so I came to a full stop right next to them. must have looked a right burk. Ah well at least I was a burk in a zed!

When I depress the clutch pedal I hear a sort of clunk. It soubds like its coming from inside the cabin as if the pedals were loose except they're not. Anyone else experienced this? Al

Just stacked my car against a kerb. wasnt going that fast but new to the car and it spun on me. the rear offside wheel hit a kerb with some force and now it doesnt feel right at all. feels like driving on ice and lots of funny scrapping noises at low speeds and when turning right. The steering wheel is now pointing at 1 'o' clock when going straight and looking from the outside the alloy looks out of shape. Diagonsis? Just a bent alloy or have I bent the suspension out of place. i am obviously going to take it to the garage tomorrow but any ideas now so i dont get ripped off. Can anyone recomend any garges in the NW london area? I have heard of the Zen garage in Putn…

hi guys i think i need a coolant temp sensor i have done an ecu check and it said code 13 i have tried to clean but with no joy also having prob with the sensor on left throttle body does anyone know where i can get these at reasonable prices or any suggestions how to fix ? thanx

just like to say people that i sorted my gearbox within 1hr of working on it, thanks to tech advise from zedworld!! they knew straight away that it was a blocked g/box filter/strainer. took it off and cleaned her now shes running great, because this was blocked the gearbox was losing pressure resulting in no drive, job cost me £0 :) thanks for all your advise again guys regards andy

Im aware that if you drive a manual you shouldnt do too many 0-60's or 1.4miles unless your clutch is up to the job. Im just wondering if the same can be said for a torque converter in an auto box? Friction shouldnt be the same issue? I know the fluid etc will heat up and you will be straining the diff tyres etc but can the auto box take more 0-60 runs?

hi guys just done a ecu diagnostic check which says its 13 engine coolant temp sensor could anyone tell me where this is? is it yellow plug near rad and also how to fix cheers

well i ordered a set of springs and o rings today. after a lengthy chat with one of the guys from ztech he advised me to drop a bit of dextron in the car let it tick over for a while and drop oil, he said this may sort out the small rattle i have when the car warms up at around 2500 to 3500 revs, he said it could b a sticky lifter, anyway i put the castrol 10 60 sport edge in. after which the rattlin is still there aarrrrggggghhh :headvswal. well i,m gonna fit the springs and o rings wen i get them and if that dosnt sort this out then a box of matches just might do the trickk....he he. also been told to check all idler gears and tensioner while doin the springs.…

As title...

I've searched the forum but can't seem to find what i'm looking for. Just want to know what the reading should be in BAR when ideling, driving and so on..

Is eh7 pearl glow yellow avalible from nissan in the uk as a touch up i heard it wasnt only in the us .My nissan dealer can get import parts so i dont see why they cant get touch up paint .If not does any one know of a simular colour avalible of the shelf the reason im asking is that ive had my rear arches rolled and flared and the inside lip has lost its paint now .i dont now if eh7 pearl glow was a uk colour or not its a 3 stage paint what ever that means thanks taff.

I have about 20mm play in the sterringwheel when you shake the wheel with the ingintion off .could this be the bottom uj joint knackered is this a common fault or do these cars have a rubber ring half way up.I know the 200sx has one and they change it for a metal ring to make steering more resonsive.If its the lower uj is it a nissan dealer job to buy and what sort of a job is it to fit thanks taff.

Hey, Bloody speedo isn't working again! It's not a converter problem, as I took that out last time the thing stopped working and then it was OK (until now) So.... it's either the auto box sensor or the dial itself. Now I reckon it's the auto box sensor because the steering is all heavy and the HICAS light comes on, plus the car keeps pulling back under boost now. Those things are dependent on the pulses from the auto box aren't they? Not the dial itself? Anyone got any ideas on that one? Cheers, Christian

Hello all I've order 60mm Greddy gauge with warning (not received yet). Then I order a triple pillar gauge pod for my 300zx. I bought one for 60mm gauge but I received it today and when i took the mesurement it's says 52mm inside diameter. So does 60mm have 52mm body and 60mm front face? (hope so :mad: )
