Haven't had time to search the forum :slap: so the answer may be around somewhere, but... I'm trying to see if a rough running problem I have may be the AAV (i.e. the metal contraption bolted to the passenger's side of the plenum right at the back) by bypassing it. I propose to unplug the plenum tube from the valve and seal it off, but I need to know what the sensor on the valve does- is it open- or short- circuit depending on temperature, or is there a resestive load variable thingumybob? Failing that, please could someone stick a multimeter on the valve contacts when the ingine's hot and let me know what the resistance is? Cheers! Mark

Does anybody know who does a fast road ( strong ) rebuild for 91 NA auto box. Hopefully will have a spare box with clutch gone later this week when mine replaced, so thinking of getting spare rebuilt for later swap.

bit of a strange 1 this... on the standard exhaust systems there is a small pipe which joins the 2 seperate pipes together... i believe this is called a "balancer pipe" i recentley saw on american hotrod, a system being built for a V8 hotrod. they mentioned putting in the said balancer pipe but never explained why or what purpose it serves. any help with this is greatly recieved. cheers, chris...

Noticed last night that my fuel gauge has stopped moving (its stuck just below 1/2 full). Anyone has this problem before and what was the solution? Cheers, Gareth

I'm about to receive jdm front clip TT :hyper: were i live the driver side is left and it's legal to switch to the right so guess what. :D I know u can do that with some cars cause there is only 1 frame for both driver side. So i'd like to know if the Zed is build that way. (O yeah, a won't cut my Z in half and weld the front jdm with my american back hehe) Is there any thing i should know about before removing the dashboard Any information would be appreciated. :) Sorry for my english, i'm a french canadian.

I'm assuming as my warning light came on there is a problem with the fluid level as the assembly is only about 9 months old. However the light goes off if I turn the car off, restart and continue without problems. Anyway, what fluid do I need and who do I get it from?

know of a zed for sale with broken engine( timing belt snapped) supposedly at low speed could anyone give pointer to what possible damage may of occurred to see if its worth buying cheers :rolleyes:

Silver Zed parked up in Castlemaine Ave. Gillingham, walked past it bout 20 minutes ago, has 300ZX.co.uk stickers in the rear windows.

Anyone have any knoweldge of this kit now that it's available for the Zed ? http://www.aempower.com/product_ems.asp seems pretty good in that it uses the stock harness so fits in just minutes. smithy

anyone know what would cause this? Noticed tonight oil pressure a little low - topped it up but when car is ticking over it sounds like someone is hitting engine with a hammer. If you look in the oil fill hole and watch the cam go round it seems to be at same speed as that. I have tried putting more oil in but it hasnt quietened down.
