is there much to fitting one of these ? thats about the size of my question really... looking at sticking it (originally !!! :rolleyes: ) where the clock is...

My Z is a 91/92 TT JDM I need NSF strut/shock, I have the opportunity to buy the front struts from a NA, year not known, possibly JDM, are they the same ? CheerZ Paul

at last final decision... im gonna rebuild my whole engine for a more powerful than standard engine. the head and tubs need replacing. its a 1990 manual in black with leather interior where do i start. what i want to do. 1 replace injectors with 780cc 2 replace tubs with more powerful ones blitz ecu 3 ported heads? (need advice ) 4 new gaskets all round neoprene vacuum hoses (shall i bore out cylinders in which case i will need new pistons, rings etc) what about cam angle sensor? macca whats my options... the way i see it if im gonna pay for a new engine (£1000 min) might as well spend it on a rebuild. you seem to be the expert…

When i brought my zed i was told the hicas was disabled and thought nothing of it, but having looked a bit closer the hicas light intermitantly gos off.... so im thinking it probably hasnt been disabled and is just playing up... it seems to come on and go off as it pleases, sometimes it stays off for ages other times it flickers off/on then stays either of or on, but i cant really find any pattern to its behaviour... anyone got any suggestions on what might be going on or where i can start with this...?

Lovley white zed heading north on a1/m1 stuck in traffic going past leeds about 6ish, i was in a blue vectra stuck thumb up at you and you thumbed back. The zed had stainless exhausts,rear spoiler and i think 18" wheels rear lights were modded too. Reg had the the word RAT in it was a dam fine example of a zed! :dance: :dance: :dance:

from reading the book, this seems possible and easy. just wondering what peoples thoughts were if a clutch switch is fitted, is this correct Once a certain preset parameter is meet and the clutch depressed a second rev limit comes in. allowing you to change gear without over reving and not comming too far of boost, as you can keep your foot flat to the floor. This should only happen when the revs exeed the set level? and will operate normally if the revs are below the limit. the best switch to use is one from the front brake system of a motor bike, as this designed to have acertain amount of pressure before they work. and that a car brake switch is over sens…

Hi there,does anyone know if the stock Nissan 300zx TT clutch kit (UK) will fit the N/A (import)? Thanks in advance :)

Does anyone know where i can get hold of a plain carbon fibre Z bonnet with no vents? Cheers!

Will be getting a stainless steel exhaust. I would like four pipes out the back. Like the Mongoose But don,t know which one to get. Can I do away with the cat & will I need to set the engine up & air intakes ect....Sorry to be so thick but don't know much about exhaust......Or is there a better one to put on a Zed?

I have recently purchased a nissan 300zx non turbo and the dials have not been converted to MPH, and i was wondering if anyone knows A. how easy it is to change this and B. if there is anywhere near brighon that does this?

was thinkin of having this done whilst the cars in pieces - had a little search - but most prices seem to involve the whole kaboodle inc engine removal. whats an average price for having the 2 turbos reconned (and what can be done to improve them?) has anyone used turbo developments or turbo dynamics? cheers mowgs

been offered an exhaust off an NA, cat back system, but i have a TT - will it fit?

Does anyone know the maximum power an N/A diff can take? Also are there any figures for improvement in 0-60 times etc? Is it a straight swap or are other bits required?

Will these fit my zed do you think? If they fit a Skyline will they fit a 300? So far the guy has asked if it is a twin turbo I have or not. eBay wheels

Just had a call from Nissan, who have said that the rear diff is ready to collapse. Ufortunately, this means nothing to me, can anyone put this into girlie speak for me??????

That means new pads are required yes? Or i ran over a mouse :)
