could some one tell me how and were you put the dump valve on a british 300zx twin turbo. it's me brother's car and he's not realy getting anywere fast with them. any picture's or diagram' would be of great help as i could print them off for him. plus would you think an fto gr would beat this car or should it loose badly. by the way i own a rover 220 turbo witch is very quick just not as quick as your cars. thanks for the help.....speccy.

As above, heading towards Walsall at around 5pm.

Can anyone tell me where I can get one of these spoilers in the UK? Seen it advertised on ebay - but was in the US, and the ZCentre don't do them anymore. It's called a Vader I think. Cheers.

Hi, Ive noticed 300zx dash-board kits on ebay for about £50 ish they seem to look ok...... Has anyone bought one ? If so are they any good ? Whats the quality like ? Would you recommend them ? Thanks for replies in advance Cheers Martin

i saw a red zed with an orange backend couldnt tell what year it was as it didnt have a number plate on it was near asda in boldon LOL :tongue: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Im starting to get a bit bored with my NA now and I think I need to get a few more horses, ive looked into turbo conversions and from what I can gather, its very expensive and loads of work. does anyone know , if I can just drop in a TT engine and gearbox, obviously I will need a new ECU but is there anything major which could lead to problems ?? I know a lot of you would say "just go and buy a TT" but my car is a late model (95) in the colour that I like , and it has a cool interior ! also does any one know a good mechanic in northumberland , or tyneside that could do it Cheers, Andy..

Hi all , New to forum here and really nice to find you guys after always seeming to end up stateside when looking for 300zx news. I am the owner of a 1984 300zx ,not quite the same league as the new ones i know but none the less a very characturistic piece of autmotive history that has been my baby for over 7 years now whith no real problems until 3 weeks ago.Then the heater matrix decided to give up the ghost and empty its contents into the footwell .I have managed to get a replacement unit to my surprise very quickly but the fitting now thats another story .I have semi stripped the dash and from what i can see this unit is encased inside an alloy box i…

hi guys can anyone tell me what this sensor is on my zed (see photo) i have one of these each side both with a vacuum pipe disconected do these need to be connected? cheers for the help kev

I need to identify some Z32 fuel injectors. They are red-tops, and on the red plastic top is a code 1M41 a Nissan logo, and 18050 Does anyone have a black injector lying around that they could look at and post the information here?? Many thanks, Rob.

As above....Was it you :confused:

Fitting my shiny new plenum (Thanks Paul @ Knightsbridge Motors), nismo 555cc injectors, new plugs, PVC Valve kit (Thanks Ryan), New fuel line kit (Thanks Smithy), new three pod A-pillar (thanks Mark@somewhere I cant remember lol), moving my Apexi EL2 boost guage into pod with new Apexi EL2 water temp guage (Thanks smithy) and Apexi EL2 oil pressure guage (Thanks bloke off Ebay!

Nope, cant remember at the mo! Ah yes, my manual conversion kit arrives later this month so we ne…

Is this kit hard to fit, or do I need to go to someone who knows what they are doing?

How friendly everyone is on here, bought a 1990 import a couple of weeks ago that cost me an absolute fortune (if you dont believe me check out my story in the 'help and advise' forum, thread starts 'another new member') I fell in love with the car as soon as i saw it, and now have an added bonus of you guys (and girls) to help me out. A special thanks to Dave for promise of the manual. Cheers to you all :duffer: regards Pete

hi there guys, as anybody had or got as above,my 93tt with 79,000km makes a whirling noise that changes pitch with a rpm increase, its like a cambelt thats to tight but mines ok.so the logical next thing would be the tensioner,what i wanna know is do these things whine before they throw there hand in ?????? thanks

Had the car nearly a month now, just had it's 60k service and running really sweet! :hyper: Had a chat at a new local import garage thats got a brand new 4wd rolling road. Gotta wait till payday to do it, but I'm getting an induction kit off them, then I'm gonna give it a sesh on the rollers to see what the curve is like standard before i reall start to play with it!!!!!! ;) Anyway, the question is..... does anyone have, or know, what this system is on the motor??? It has no markins and is complete from the headers back, sounds great too. I have no problems with it, just curious as to what make it is? Anyone know????? Brett p.s. sorry, but I sti…

Just celaning the car and found the the drivers footwell carpet soaked. I lifted the carpet to find I could squeeze the water out. It's deffo not the T bar drains as the water flows freely through there and out the bottom. So 2 questions: 1. Has anyone else had this problem? 2. does the carpet continue under the stereo surround (so the 2 footwells are connected) or does it seperate in the middle? Cheers Vijay

Anybody know if you can get a 6 x 2 6/8" hole pattern steering wheel hub for a zx Twin Turbo?

The Vacuum Hose of my Blitz Turbo timer, is a tiny black plastic hose, i cant seem to find anybody who knows how i can plumb this in. Anyone know who does these kinda connectors?

Where do i gfind the connectors to plug a TT harness in. I thought they were at the back of the ignition but cant see anything.

My zeds back on the road after a little winter vacation. Unfortunately, its come back with a really bad fuel smell when starting especially when cold. I've tightened up the clips on all the lines I can access but I think the leak is on a fuel line at the front of the engine, tucked away behind the bar that links the two throttle bodies (I'm sure it has a proper name!). Is there a fuel line there? If so, how are you supposed to get to it to fettle or replace it? Cheers David

when braking I'm getting vibrations through the steering wheel at 50mph+ speeds. I'm also getting some light pulsing of the brake pedal, especially noticable at low speeds and light application of the brakes. Now a bit of background, I've recently (2 months) put R34 calipers, grooved discs and new carbon kevlar pads on. As soon as I tried a serious stop with the new setup I had very heavy virations, the whole car was shaking, and this was due to the tension rod bushes being ripped to shreads. I had new adjustables waiting to go on, so no big deal. Now that the suspension has all been sorted and I'm still gettting the symptoms above (not as severe thankfully)…

Anyone know the steering rack ratio on the NA vs TT. Been told it's slightly quicker due to not having the HICAS assisting, so thinking of fitting one when my engine is out. Cheers

hi folks, ive not had my 300 for long, but i pulled the dipper for the auto box, and i see its been WELL over filled, will this affect the change points of the box etc? sometimes i think it should go with more oomph, or kick down a wee bit harder, but its the only one ive ever driven and i dont know what it should be like. thanks Fraser
