Ant here (hunniepies dude). As with quite a few Z's i've heard of recently, we seem to have a power steering/hi cas prob with our Z. We found out wot the prob is and got the part but now need some advice !!! Does anyone know how i can change the main hose for the power steering without the engine coming out ??? Or if not where i could find a manual or advice on this !!!! Thanks :cool:

Hey Guys Whats the best magazine out there that deals with the Z32 and modding stuff?? Thanks

Just ordered these from z centre: http://www.zcentre.co.uk/shop/product_info.php?cPath=21_24_55&products_id=42 Got a few questions: 1. Any idea if they come with the orange bulbs? If not can I get them from halfords etc? 2. Are the orange indicators easy to get off and are these a straight replacement? Any answers to the above will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Has anybody changed the 2 bushes in the rear hubs the one the rear upper arms connects too and the one the small link[traction ] arm connects two .Ive changed all 3 hub bushes on a s13 200sx before 3 because no hicas not too bad to change hole cutter to take centre out then hacksaw to remove the outer steel bush shell then chisel the shell out.But the 200 sx has cast iron hub not alloy like the zed .Ive changed the small link arm bushes sub frame end with powerflex bushes and fitted cusco rear upper arms .thanks taff.

If the exhausts are a litte sootie and there's a slight petrol smell after running hard does this suggest the car is running a little rich? I know it does with a Rotory Engine but not sure with a V6 twin turbo.

I need a HICAS link arm, part number: 48521-35A06 Anyone got one? (traders and second hand welcome)

looking for a set of rear shocks, one of the ones kev gave me has given way today and leaked its oil out. not his fault seems it was just a bit faulty. i am in desperate need of two rear shocks, springs not needed, if anyone here has any please let me know. im absolutely desperate for these as its mot time on monday and its taken ages to get this booked in. i was having a good day until this happened and now im absolutley gutted .. i dont know what to do now. im tired, stressed pissed off and got far too much on my plate at the moment, kev has promised to help me fit the replacements, so if anyone has a set even new ones for sale please let me know i need them …

Right, I have a SWB manual twin turbo, it currently has a decatted exhaust which it had when it came in from Japan, it's a 3" bore exhaust and both sides meet in a centre box then come out the other side to two exits, now, the box got rattly as the welds must have gone inside, so I today had the box replaced with two seperate pipes to replace the box, So having done this the car lost a lot of compression due to lack of back pressure caused by the both sides of the exhaust not meeting which equalises the pressure, am I on the right tracks? So I went back to the garage who did the work and explained to them what was going on and that the both sides of the exhaust shoul…

seeing edk83's for sale notice, reminded me.....here goes. The rear illuminated panel on my z packed in working, wasn't the inverter so naturally assumed it was the EL panel. Having shopped around etc found it impossible to source from Nissan and manufacturers inform me I need to buy large sheets in large quantities so was about to give up, but I've now found a UK supplier who will supply me what I wanted, ordered it and today I fitted it and it looks brilliant all working again. :dance: I got 2 pieces 1 blue/green......is green though 1 red.......slightly pink when illuminated......but still looks good in the panel, I tried both pieces to see what I pre…

Hi I have 91 TT Jap spec with Hicas. Can I use any shocks (eg from US) or must they be specially for Jap Spec, RHD.?? Thanks

saw a black zed outside the natural history museum in kensington, london on sunday at 2pm. had a large rear spoiler. anyone on here? Alex.

just wondering if anyone has done it and if it was worth while. know few people getting this done but noone with a 300.

Hi, I found this place through an advert on Pistonheads. I'm looking around for a replacement for my 2 Vento VR6s (don't ask why I had 2!) I've seen adverts for 300ZXs ranging from £1.5 upwards. I'm guessing cars that cheap are going to be sheds! I have just over £3k to spend. Can I hope to find a good one for that or am I wasting my time? If I was to get one I would want a manual and ideally a UK car. All help/advice appreciated! Gav

Hi guys and gals, Need to upgrade my RAD for the summer months :cool: . Is this the correct Koyo radiator for a TT or am I better getting it from a trader on here? Thanks for you help in advance! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/90-91-92-93-94-95-96-NISSAN-300ZX-TURBO-KOYO-RADIATOR_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33602QQitemZ8070596973QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD2V

I would like to change my rear lap belts in my Jap TT to 3 point belts to fit a baby seat - has anyone done this ? Cheers Jeremy

Hi guys, I have a JDM Fairlady TT and for its latest trick :smash: it has decided to start holding in first (while in drive) until you take your foot right off the pedal, then it will drop down. I have cleaned the plug from the TPS as it was green and corroded, this made some but very little difference. The chappy at Z world said something about 0.4V at the wires or something?????? PLEASE ADVISE. :( JASE

Hi All I need your help. I keep loosing the back end of my car when there is the slightest sign on moisture on the road. Yeah I know what you are thinking, ‘drive slower’ or ‘stop putting your foot down too quickly’ but trust me it’s not like that at all. I was warned before buying the car that they aren’t got in the wet, and therefore ‘I’m driving Miss Daisy’ in the rain, but surely there has to be a better tyre I can buy which will help. I currently have Avon in all four corners. Can someone recommend a good tyre – various price ranges would be appreciated. Thanks Spencer

Hey there Does anyone know if these are any good?? They are a lot cheaper the AJX Thanks
