hi when I get my zed repaint I want to remove the stone chip from doors sills an bumper door an sills will be ok to remove with abit of heat being metal any tip for the bumpers thanks

Few alignment issues to fix yet, really not convinced on how far back the rear wheel is sitting. Can't sort the camber out properly without causing grief with the bolt that holds the rear bumper on. Thoughts? Also the centre of the cat back is virtually on the floor...some massing required there I think. Seems crazy how little stops the exhaust swinging around, which I can actually feel now because the cars rock hard.

Well, as my previous PTU didn't go wrong and to be honest, they don't fail as much as you'd be led to believe, I'm going back to a series 1 PTU until I order a brand new loom from wiring specialities. The S2 PTU and harness are damn ugly. I had thought about chopping up the sub-harness, but since there are still quite a few people still rocking an S1 PTU, I'm just going to stick mine back on there and have nice tidy wiring for a while! Who else is still using their S1 PTU?

I have been looking at the Richmond web site. The only reference to a Nissan product I can see is one for a Titan?? Is this the one that also fits in the Z32 TT diff?? This....................http://www.richmondgear.com/pdf/Richmond_Catalog_Section1.pdf#page=35

Really starting to bother me, there's this periodic "clicking" noise from the interior fan. It seems to vary in noise, location and frequency based on the setting, but is unrelated to the AC itself. I plan to replace the bulbs in the instrument panel soon so is there anything I should check?

Every now and then on my auto you put it in park and go to remove the key, no matter how much jiggling and poking of the button it won't turn it's last little bit and release the key. Leave the car for a short while and it does it straight away. Any ideas?! It's almost as if something electronic is holding it off but surely it's all mechanical in that area with a park interlock cable? Thanks for any input. :)

While I'm waiting to get the car to Jimmer I'm sorting some issues while I can. The clutch is slipping but I know the clutch is good, think the problem is the rod from the slave cylinder to the fork on the box was missing so I made one up best I could. So if that is too long could that be the cause? If so does anyone know the correct length of it?

can somebody please help me with exact location of the fuel pump FUSE and RELAY on a 96 Z32 LWB Twin Turbo

hello has any one replaced there car matts with decent ones. there are so many rubbish ones on eBay and amazon. i have bought many of there and always been disappointed with there life span. if you have bought some decent ones, were from? i was considering buying some OE ones. but second hand ones look rubbish if you are planning to re upholster. cheers

Guys recently there was a post about someone who installed new Volvo washer jets. As 1 of mine is blocked and the MOT is looming at the end of the month, its the first small job to be done. Have tried clearing the blockage but with no luck. So if someone could let me know the Volvo model they were from I would be grateful.

hi guys ,im looking to change oil diff in my nissan 300zx twin turbo but im not sure where is oil cap.thanks for any advice

Hi everyone. I'm trying to get my 300 back on the road again but it has an intermittent fault with the electrics. Everything has worked fine up until the mot was due and now the complete middle of the car has no power to anything. I'm presuming its a cable or connector problem but I cannot find anything. The controls on the left hand side of the dash have stopped working - so that's the temp / heater controls, fan, wipers and washers but the problem continues down the centre console so includes the clock, cigarette lighter and the mirrors. Has anyone had anything similar or any ideas where to start looking. If anyone has a link to the fuse board translation that…

Things have changed ... may need to sell my project car black TT auto may break!! details and pics to follow

I sold my black zx twin turbo roughly three years ago and regretted it ever since, had 280Z with a turbo swap in the meantime but there's something about the z32 that attracts me. So about four weeks ago I took a chance, bought a one way ticket to stockholm and picked up a bone stock 91 TT 2+2 with 85000km's on the clock, full history and a bucketload of receipts and stuff. Not mint but with a little tlc it'll get there. First I had to recolor the bolsters on the seat, they where pretty worn and white. Managed to get it black again with swissvax leather color and products. The outside is suffering from a lot of stone chips on the hood and nose panel, the plastic unde…

hey guys really want to get my AC going in the z but need a new condenser as mine is cracked and in a pretty bad state. anyone know of a good option on used or replacement units? i know there are problems with the aluminium fittings oxidising together but mine on the car are ok thanks in advance :)

Hi, i am a new member with a 1993 uk-spec 300zx Twin Turbo automatic, off the road for the last 9 years or more, only 45000 miles, i've spent the last six months with friends mechanically restoring her, as all the rubber parts were perished, even the seals in the water pump, i've replaced almost everything, water pump, cam belt, all belts, full service, etc etc, bushes, new disks & pads, new tyres on original wheels, full Mongoose Stainless exhaust (four tailpipe), kept everything original, but she is running lean because of the performance air-filter & exhaust, need to re-map/chip the ECU, need help & advice on the best specialist to see in my area, i had a 3…

Hi can anyone recommend a engine oil an grade semi or part thanks

just a quick bit of help with this one as i have only just found this in the car after 5 years of ownership, basically i have a hks sld box with a short cable fitted and a plug on the end, i found it in the passenger side footwell whilst i was running a wire through, never seen it before even with passenger footwell carpets up before, so my question where would this usually be plumbed into the wiring?

Anyone think a zed would go up these or would it be a case of building up with blocks of wood? http://www.halfords.com/motoring-travel/tools-diy/trolley-jacks-axle-stands/halfords-car-ramps-pair

Having just had a look under the bonnet of a TT for the first time, I've noticed something about my engine. Am I missing something here..?
