Some of you may know I have been trying to source a good, none smoking drivers side turbo. However, does anyone have any experience with reconditioned units? Can anyone recommend someone that can rebuild stock turbos reliably? Thanks

Saw this on Gumtree in Putney area if an one needs it. Its £95. (Not mine but I know someone was looking for this)

Suddenly need a second zx car for drifting! :huh:

I was going through photos of 2 TT engine bays, and i think i'm about to ask some daft questions, but if i don't ask i'll not kind out. Below are 4 photos i picked out. The black car is a 91 TT manual and the blue one is 95 TT auto. In these first 2, what are the items circled in red? Where is that vacuum pipe going to, thats connected to the balance pipe (arrow pointing to it). The black car doesn't have these things, and i can't seem to see a vacuum pipe connected to the balance pipe, theres nothing theres, shouldn't it be at least capped? Same goes for the power steering stuff in these 2 photos, is it something to do with HICAS? And why has the …

The BOv's in question are Apexi Twin Chamber. Been thinking about my BOVs as I get stalling issues after being on Boost and dumping the clutch. Pretty sure it's cos of the BOV's. O was looking back through some really old posts and found people saying the adjustment screw show be at around 5 - 5mm. The first question I have is whether its 4mm out of the end of the BOV or 4mm out of the nut that goes on the end (which I don't have). Just wondering what ya's think. I have toyed with the idea of getting rid in the past but then decided to keep as I do like the sound lol.

If you have hicas lock out bar and don't want to waste money on na pump you can make one from tt pump Take off the back plate. Remove middle chamber and cut the shaft Drill a bit large hole in the back plate to fit the shaft Reasemble the pump And cut the back plate so it does fit the bracket

has anyone replaced these horrible black plastic pipes with a custom set up or something you can buy pics and links would be great thanks. dan.:thumbup1:

I have 2 Zeds that are 2+2 and are below fair condition (but not rotten), one's an 'auto TT' which is driving 100% and the other a 'manual NA' with a broken timing belt, both donor cars are to make into cheap drift car (project for my midlife crisis lol). I was planning on taking the manual conversion kit and rear sub frame from the NA and put them in the TT, because there's a file of history with the Auto TT, incase i ever want to sell it. There's no history or tax book with the NA, i bought the NA cheap for the manual kit and rear sub frame. These last couple of months i done a lot of research on the amount of work that's required to swap-over everything under bot…

Does anyone have a link or can send me supplements/complements 1 and 2 (the manuals beyond the basic manual)? Thank you, appreciate the help!

Anyone used this? Lots of Chinese Z32 parts for competitive prices. From what I understand you approach sellers and negotiate a price, ie everything a group but waiting to happen.

check this out I would be really interested to see if the car is as perfect as the seller claims. http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C552619

So two and a half hours ago whilst I thought I was about to get lucky I hear a loud bang and my alarm going off. Looked outside the window butt nekked and saw a car facing my zx. Quickly got dressed and out and was greated by a group of young lads who said my cars just been hit and the other car sped off. Walked around to the driver side and my heart skipped a beat. The shop across the road has cameras and shows the car driving down and straight into my car. Unfortunately can't read/see the plate. Of the 7 lads not one has managed to get the reg yet saw everything. Ontop of that only one is willing to give a statement who lives down the street from me. The …

So got these at a stupid low price from a friend with 265 tyres all round. Long story but the White ones no one seems to know what they are (were originally on a wide body Supra) and one cracked (they are magnesium wheels so uber light but not overly strong as you can imagine!) So anyways the cracked one was beyond repair, the guy that owned them sold them to a guy with a crazy Scooby, he ordered a Varrstoen one since it looked similar. While it does the Varrstoen had a slightly bigger lip than the rest, and an offset of 22 instead of 20 like the white ones. So he offered them to me with tyres for a whopping £350. So test fitted them, clear everything ( minor …

There was I, going round a roundabout, you know, those large ones where you can set the front wheels and just power round, except this time the car decides to have a 4 wheel aquaplane, rear wheels drifting one way and the front pointing another. Should have seen the look on the face on the woman in her Micra waiting to come on the r/bout who I am now sliding towards... luckily the water runs out and tarmac comes to the rescue, grip returns and I power up my exit..

Ignoring my zed's fueling and boost issues decided to carry on with my winter plans, Trying to decide on the route to go down, now it got a fmic at the moment, but I don't like it it's a cheap one and it doesn't fit particularly well, So trying to decide if it's worth getting a better fmic, like the autobahn88 ones, or considering going back to side mounts, like the idea of the z1 ba intercoolers and the 2.5" pipe work.. Which would people choose? Other planned mods are 3" elbows and front pipes to match the pg exhuast, new boost controller, selin dual intake and a noz map. This is my second zed and is the project, using the na as daily drive at…

My new seat covers and interior trim panels are on their way to me at long last . Just wanted some tips from anyone who has re trimmed panels, fitted seat covers previously. What to look out for, best sort of glue, tools etc. Do I need a bit of scrim foam for good fit on seats etc etc.

Hi, my MOT advisory stated this steering arm (HICAS) had slight play. I have one to fit. Can someone tell me if I then need the rear steer alignment tested? Four wheel set up is it a Nissan dealer job?

On Monday the weather was so nice I decided to take the Z out! here in Seabrook:) Then in Lydd :) :) Then onto Dungerness:yes: Can you see that steam loco? Then home! Great day:dance:

Is there an easy way of testing the servo on my clutch? I haven't driven her for a month or so before today and the pedal seemed heavier than I recall. Very heavy in fact. Thanks in advance.

I have never used my zed as a daily car but I'm maybe getting a new job which would mean I'd need to use it to get to and from my work would be around 60 miles all in per day anyone give me a rough idea how much it would cost to run it would be 4 times a week so 240 miles a week

Found this while searching google images for a front splitter. Your car print model! http://www.ionicdynamics.com/300zxnew2.html

After finally gettjng money together to get my smokey turbos done I now think my heads gaskets gone has gon :@ on first start up (doesnt matter if its 1 week off not driveing or 1 day) it emits white smoke that smells sweet and does so for 10 minutes or until I set off then doesn't do it again even if I stop and restart car an hour later also bubbling coolant when I topped it up was still geting bubbles after running up to temp coolant looking brownish dont know if this is because off rust?
