as above. i will be looking to buy a manual box next month. what else will i need apart from the box and pedals? how hard of a job is it. therefore my autobox will be up for sale with aftermarket cooler.

We are building a Monster 300ZX Fully Drag Car with 350hp of NOS We got the turbos today, our JUN engine is ready and now we are preparing the chassis. The car will be tuned by Mike Kojama (JUN AUTO) coming from Japan And let me tell you that if it works, we are aiming for 6 second passes. NO JOKE Jason Farrow: You remember that chassis when you came to see us right!! Thats the one :)

does any1 know if the top mounts on the coilovers or the norm suspension on a 1990 jap import are ment to have any movement at all??because 1 of my original jic coilovers was knackered an needed replacing so i took them to gaz shocks in bas.where they copied and remade me to new rear coilovers but when i picked them up the guy said his never come across coilovers with the top mount fixed that didnt have no movement! he explaind that the top mount should have a bearing in so it can adjust! saying the jic was a bad design he has made my new coilovers to have movement in the topmount will ths be ok still as i havent fitted them yet or shall i take them back. cheers :confused…

I've just picked up a UK spec speedo and want to fit it to my Jap spec car but one of the connectors on the UK version is a 4pin and my car only has a three pin lead, can I just interchange the leads or must I carry out more mods to make it fit? thanks

Ok, who is the owner who was driving like a man possessed yesterday in Northampton.... Spec as above....and illuminated rear badge....

I got a disappointing result at the SE meet at Surrey Rolling Road last week. Only 124bhp at the rear wheels. I've had the car 1yr bought from importer with little or no history. It's a 1995 2+2 NA Auto (probably all the wrong combinations for performance). I was told that the cam belt was changed at around 90,000 kms and there is an aluminium plate in the engine bay that says so in Japanese (I think that's what it says!). Its now done 80,000miles. However, because I've not anything to compare it to, the fastest thing I've driven to date was the old 2.8i Supra, I'm not aware of any power loss. Any sluggishness I've put down to the auto box. It is pretty slow off the …

Hi All, I have a problem with the idle speed on my car. It happens once the car is warmed up. It will be sitting at normal idle (just under 1000rpm) and then it jumps to about 1800 to 2000rpm. It will say like this for a while and then it is an intermittent problem after that. Everything else is OK, I have no other running problems. This car has been main dealer serviced from new and I'm pretty sure it hasn't had any connectors cleaned etc. so I reckon that might be a start, but which ones?. Cheers, Steve Hart.

Iv seen people with colored timing belt covers and throttle cable covers i was wondering if you can buy thease covers or if you just paint them if you just paint them is thair a tutorial on how to do it cheers

Hi everyone, I have a big problem with my Zed... I am in Romania, which also means I am on my own, with nobody knowing anything about cars at all (much like me..) I had a bad problem with the car, which ended with one of the hoses to the heater matrix splitting. I thought this was ok, replace hose, refill with coolant... NOT I have been trying now for almost 3 weeks to refil the cooling system. I have read for a week on various sites about the best way to do this, and am none the wiser with my problem. I have tried parking nose up, trickle filling with engine on, and off, filling with heater set to on, and nose up, with engine running, also with engine off. Tried…

My headlamps arent working properly on the car, this could be due to the rear lights not being wired up correctly (by me :wack: ). Has anybody done this conversion and recorded where they put the wires? I have looked at it until I'm blue in the face and can't seem to get anywhere. Reverse Light comes on same thime as indicators (hazards). I cannot check indicators properly as my indicator stalk dont work. Is everything related? Have I fooked up big time? There is an auto electrician who lives at the top of my street, wonder how much he charges :p Any help guys.......please :)

Has anyone ever looked into this for a Z32 Engine? http://www.sbdev.co.uk/Dry_Sump_Systems/Dry_sump_Systems/Dry_Sump_Systems_Index.htm http://www.hi-flow.com/HPDSP2.htm

Im getting round to installing my carputer in the zed and a few of the items im adding have cigeratte lighter adapters. I was wondering if i could just create like a little "busbar" from the cigertte lighter and connect them from this one power source.. Im just wondering if it is feasable or if i should try and source some other ignition switch power circuits in the car... Ref. im looking at running touchscreen power, laptop charger and maybe my usb hub from the lighter.. Thanks andy
