Hi guys, Had to pull the zed out the garage where I've been hiding it and trying to forget I have it, till I sort everything out and get the chance to buy the last few bits that need doing, the sun was out and the pearl in the paint was looking good even without the rear lights and front bumper it looked nice so thought id take a few pics before i throw it back in the garage for god knows how long... - - - Updated - - - - - - Updated - - - - - - Updated - - - tacie/300zx/20150511_184128_zpszmk78k0d.jpg[/img][/url]

Guys just trying to setup the "failsafe" part of my AEM gauges. I have taken a photo of the instructions that came with the gauge, see below. This is on a "normal closed) relay. The low side (ground output from the Widebands Failsafe can be used to turn ON a NC (normally closed) relay and interrupt the output signal from a boost controller to its boost solenoid (shown below.) NOTE be sure that pulling power from the boost controller will decrease boost down to the waste gate spring pressure rather than increase boost to the turbochargers max.This will depend on what type of waste gate is used and how it is plumbed with the vacuum hose. I then cam across the follow…

Nice red zed leek to Buxton road

I know Noz is real good with this kinda stuff but I have a ecu chip which is soldered into the ecu with two wires... However it doesn't have a name on it and I feel this could be a cheap chip. also feeling that this could be the culprit of my bad idle (earlier called a misfire). Is it safe to test this by cutting these two wires to cut out the chip? Thankyou

Hi Noel, you mapped my zed a year or so ago when it was an auto, im having it converted to manual soon and wondered if it needs mapping again or if its safe to drive under the existing map. im guessing as its only a change of gear wether thats done by me or a computer souldnt matter but just checking in case? Also read a thread on here that you run without recircs or bov's, is this safe on stock turbos 17psi, as im considering this myself to eliminate goosehonk and i dont mind the pigeon flutter noise instead. ? Thanks Jon

Hi all, I have a number of parcels to send small and large, Does anyone recommend a good company that actually turn up when booked and don't destroy the goods being posted. Used to use parcel force and paisley freight but was constantly being let down. Thanks Dan

Nice little car meet today ,even got to sit in a GT 40 replica still cool

Hi guys Doing a na subframe and diff swap on my slicktop at the moment . Just need to know which handbrake cable to use the na frame came of a lwb zx is it the rear part of cable diffrent between swb and lwb or is the front half that's diffrent thanks .

Just installed the braided clutch line from master cylinder to slave and I'm trying to bleed it. 2 man job, clear tube on bleed nipple on slave cylinder, pumping pedal and opening bleed then closing and releasing pedal and repeating. Still seem to be getting air and the fork isn't moving much with the pedal pressed am I missing something?

Yeah as the title states. Another possible problem.. The bottom end of the engine has become quite loud. You can hear something ticking buts it's louder than just a ticking noise there is plenty of 10w 50 fully synth oil in it. Only just changed spark plugs, oil filter, oil, fuel filter. The noise just came on as I was driving.... any ideas?

Require a couple of Euro Spec VIN numbers. Preferably TT & NA numbers to test Nissan FAST.

Got my ticket today but will not be able to make it this year so up for grabs

Hi all, Who else can supply after market chips for the Z? I know DTA used to but I know he isn't trading anymore and don't want to buy off eBay. Ideally want one asap. Thanks Dan

Has anyone personally imported a 300zx themselves, I have my eye on one at a dealership however the importers close to me seem to want a bit too much to bring it in, the car is 330,000 yen roughly 1800 quid and im looking at £4k in charges.

how the hell do i remove the glove box lock, got it all dismantled but I cant see how you get the plastic bit out that hold the barrel in place?

Anyone recognise this?

Looking for a demon rear skirt, or the wide demon rear bumper Anyone got one for sale?

Got a call from my brother yesterday telling me he heard of a chap selling a TT engine, he told me he'd passed on my phone no., so i got a call from him today, we had a chat and a haggle, (i've been assured that the engine is running sweet with no smoke etc). Managed to get him to throw in a set of UK clocks, manual gear knob and the engine for €650:rockon: Just have to find €650:blush:

Had my boost gauge plumbed in for a while but the sparky keeps letting me down. So In thought may as well hae a go at wiring up the gauge for illumination myself, can't be that hard LOL. I've been told to open the cruise control pod and attach the wires then, but I'm not sure where to, can anyway that has a 1993 Jap TT tell me which wires to use? I have attached a pic of the area I'm planning to use, just need to figure out which plug then which wires. Cheers.

Alright guys. Changing my disks and the ones I had for replacement which are 350z disks don't fit. Just wondering if anyone has a idea what they are the pictures where there are 2 is mine v the 350z ones the point to point on mine are 330mm Thankyou

Been trying to sort my boost controller lately but when doing so, I noticed the vac/boost piping that goes to the controller is 6mm but the piping that goes to the external wastegates is 8mm. So there's a reducer/expander in there. I'm just wondering if this matters at all or if it's too small to make much difference.
