I need new wastegates and came upon dual port wastegate actuators. As far as I have understood you can have a low spring rate (low boost) and adjust for higher boost with a boost controller. But I haven't been able to find any information on the setup on a twin turbo with ebc. Someone wrote something about using two 3 port ebc solenoids hooked up "out of phase"??? Is there anyone that knows how to apply this to the 300?

I have random sizes I can't match exactly on my exhaust and one end is a pair of fabricated flanges that join the exhaust. Is making your own gasket from something like the link below a reliable option? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Motorbike-Gasket-Universal-Make-Your-Own-Full-Sheet-Metal-Gasket-Material-/161356479674?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2591987cba Do you use exhaust gasket paste as well, if so what would you recommend?

Hey guys, I'm after some bits from Derby but am struggling to find the time to collect them, I thought I'd stick up a post to see if anyone was heading out that way and could bring some bits closer? I'm in Essex but if someone is able to bring them anywhere towards this direction, it would be very handy. Any help appreciated, CheerZ Joel.

Anyone know or remember if the stock catalyctic converters is marked/stamped with a nissan logo or e-mark?

This is a genuine 99 spec panel that belongs to a friend of mine, i await some parts to come in order for the now adapted 2 x light chambers to be completed. Although the red 300ZX outwardly is exactly the same....well it is actually redder :thumbup1:. It lights up as well, might well look pinky or orange but it is in fact the perfect red !! And in practically complete darkness :biggrin:.

Nice to meet you guys! Im Mario from Rome. This friday i've bought a mint 300zx TT from an elder man near my city, she is perfect, low mileage, always serviced and garaged and he wanted really little money. She only have a little electronic problem. The elder man, told me that the dash have a failing electronic board, but he wasnt able to find a replacement.

I dont know anything about electronic, you guys can give me an hint? Thanks so much in advance for the infos, here are some picture of the …

Hi all, recently installed HIDs onto my car but found them dangerously dim when driving in the country (which is where i do the majority of my driving) Found the standard bulbs were bad but these are shocking. This is the kit i bought, seemed to get a fairly decent review http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330789047472?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Just wondering if anyone else used this kit and had any problems? Tried to adjust the headlights, but didnt have a proper area to do it but seem fairly close to where they should be, will try and get them spot on tomorrow and see if it makes much difference (probably not!)

I Know its difficult to diagnose a ruff engine when you cant see it or hear it! Last week for no reason car started but was running ruff on idle. Set off engine seems to vibrate but goes & less vibration when foot off the gas. Took it for a run Sunday starts no problem still running ruff no missfires. bangs or rattles. Put foot down, no kick down just a steady pick up of speed, like running on 5/4 cylinders? Back home no smoke from exhausts just the same running unsteady, no just ruff!! at a 1000RPM no rise or fall. No cooling problems no wiffs or puffs of smoke, oil pressure water temp all ok? Why all of a sudden? not change or tamp…

My car is a 1990 NA jap import. It was an auto, but the previous owner converted it to a manual. There are a few things that are strange: 1) When starting the car (hot or cold) the power light on the dash flashes on and off and the car revs its self for about 10 sec. Seems to rev between 2-4000 rpm. (kinda annoying because people think im sitting in it reving it to show off :blink:) 2) Tick-over when cold seems to be about 2100 rpm which with my exhausts is really loud in queuing traffic! tick-over when warm seems to be 1500-1750 rpm. It does lower by about 250-500 rpm if i press the "off" switch for the heater/AC. 3) If I stamp on the "go" peddle, the car h…
