After converting the speedo from KPH to MPH, does this affect the mileometer? I've seen a few Zeds on ebay that say things like this... can anyone help? Mike...

Got a problem with my nismo 555 injectors. I'm putting them back in for the third time as one or two of them always weeps ie nackin the O rings. However when I look at them all sat in the rail. What has stuck me is that some of the injectors seem to sit lower in the rail and pertrude further out the bottom. is this OK or not.

Right does anyone run one of these units, as one of our customers has fitted it and requires a basic setup to get here going. Her TT is pinking alot due to incorrect mixtures. If you have a document or can even relay the settings over the phone, both myself and this good little lady would be greatfull Thanks in advance

How are your projects coming on? any problems? what is the potential upper rev limit for the v8 engines you are using?

Hi all, Been having this and related problems for some time now. My autobox seems to be "slipping" but not consistently. What usually happens is I'm stopped at a junction or stuck in traffic for a while. Try to accellerate away (normally, not flooring it) and the box loses most power and shifts up really far up the rev range. Once the car is driving along and I back off the accellerator momentarily all is well and I've got full power back again. I've also noticed that the box sometimes is reluctant to shift from 2nd to 3rd until quite high up the rev range and also refuses to engage O/D for quite some time. Eventually O/D is engaged but usually only when I've ba…

is it easy to convert auto to manual box and how much approx and most inportant who does this? :dance:

Just wondering what kind of 0-60's a Z TT with the general stage 1 mods can do ie de cat boost indeuction exhaust timing etc.. has anyone done any officail figures like at trax or the like Mines an SWB and will have a manual box come the time of actually trying :hyper:

Hi guys, hope everyones well - haven't been on here for a while!! :slap: In the next few weeks now the weather's getting warmer i'm gonna be getting the bonnet on my Z resprayed as the red paint has faded quiet alot & I don't really fancy a pink Z for the summer!! Before I do this though I wanna fit some decent bonnet vents or some kinda front duct to aid airflow as the engine runs bloody hot!! The one in the computer generated image on here a while ago looked like a wicked front duct(s) but don't know if it actually exisists!!! I know the Z centre have got there bonnet buldge but don't actually know how effective this is gonna be in getting rid of heat…

Lo again guys, the car I'm looking at had one of these 8k miles ago, been browsing the forums and seena few of these apparently failing after low mileage. Is there a known issue with them or is it most likely down to abuse? Cheers.

As title really, are 2 smaller subs better than 1 larger one? I got some neat little enclosures off of Ryan a while ago, they fit left and right in the boot but the 8" subs in it could do with being upgraded. Its quite hard to come by 8"'s but have found some Kickers in that size. I wired the 8's into a 2x200w amp and they weren't all that so then I bridged it to a larger sub I had in a box and just sat it in the boot. That sounded ALOT better. I don't want to be wasting my time with better 8's if they are never going to match 1 bigger sub? Its just the 2 enclosures that fit L+R leave plenty of space for the targa's, where as the bigger sub wouldn't. Thanks for …

On the ring road, didnt reconise the driver.

Will the Turbos from a Fiat Coupe 20VT fit a zed? they are T28 and will they be any good? know someone selling two cheep.

My car was parked next to a Prelude metallic phantom grey yesterday and it put my car to shame. Cant beleive Nissan made a 30k supercar and didnt paint most of them metallic.. especially as it was around then.. chris
