Me new engine has these... :hyper: I've just read some terrible terrible things about the breather kit. What does it allow to breathe exactly? Does it just take some of the load off the PCVs? After reading the old threads I'm inclined to get shot of it - any thoughts? And is this a clue to who owned the red auto writeoff in question? (Cambelt change was done at C&S at 70odd K)

Where is the idle sensor/switch, does anyone know??? CheerZ

Anyone know what the web address for AVO is? Would like some lower springs.

Hi I am going to view a Zed tomorrow and have been told that the following small problems require attention. 1. Air Con compressor is seized 2. Electric aerial doesn't extend/retract 3. Front bumper lightly scraped at bottom 4. Passenger mirror glass "drooping" How easy and what cost would the above work entail?? The car is a 1990, N/A, Targa Top, Manual with 52,000 miles on it. Imported 4 years ago with Full UK SH, Any other checks to carry out or things to look out for ????? Cheers

Saw another blacken today on Lowfield Rd- dont think it was JohnnyD64. he said theres another black zed on the Village. CPV is like a little race circuit, common, lets do some lap times :tongue:

Hi all just got my 3g front discs and pads - they will be fitted next week at service time :hyper: So what brake fluid do you recommend for the ZX? Richard :)

Thought the rears were 6x4's?? So bought these ........£95 they were and then went to fit them and found these! They are quite clearly round!!!! Hmm, wonder if I can get a refund? Or anyone want these if YOU have 6x4's? £85, brand new!!! LOL.

The person who was going to do this has let me down and i cant find any place that can do it!! Anyone know of somewhere that can do this?? Cheers Mike

Best I can find are Kenwood DualMags at £95. Fusion @ £75. JBL & Pioneer @ £50. Hmmm, I'm a sucka for the best there is so looking like Kenwoods, any comments?

Haven't even looked at mine yet so it maybe easy but was just wondering if anyone knew of a link just so that I'm prepared. Thanks............cos I got a NAVAN shifter now :dance:

Any one had any experience of using jap importers/garage Millwards in Lancing West Sussex....? Its kind of close to Brighton and i thought might be worth checking out. Regards Chris

Can anybody reccomend somebody to respray my rear bumper in the bristol area? My neighbour decided to reverse into my zed bless her. :x:

I am increasingly getting suspicious about my Zed and it's history. It is a Import and has all the usual stuff like folding mirrors, reflectors in the right places, clear indicators, same size wheels all round but I think the engine is UK, the fuse box covers are all in English is there any other tale tale signs that this could be the case. I am thinking maybe the engine was replaced after import. Cheers

Any of you guys in or around Bristol have a conzult. Im trying to work out why my car goes into saftey boost after being sat in traffic. I did recently put normal 95 ron petrol in, but only half a tank and when that went put optimax in. Im thinking about filling up on optimax and putting in an octance booster to see if this cures the problem first. I can hear detonation, but then the exhaust on mine are big and so loud i cant hear the engine at all. Cars costing me a bomb at the moment as it had some crappy exhaust on with SS boxes but the connection pipes were mild steel, so a nice hole appeared just before the back boxes. Purchased a Mongoose Quad SS sytem so …

Is there a manual of any kind like Haynes do for other cars. I ordered a Haynes manual for the 300ZX from america, but i think its a mark one, looks nothing like my car!

Ok guys, again several issues, but i'll start with the most important and then do the rest in other threads. Car was running perfect until i gave it a little snot, got it home and it started idling really badly, it now stalls if you leave it a few seconsd without compensating with the accelerator. While ildling it's badly misfiring, which is why it grinds to a halt. I'll be honest i havent got a clue about it car, it like learning Japanese (pun intended). Where are the HT Leads? Spark Plugs? I've looked on a few other threads and you guys keep mentioning the O2 Sensor? where is it and what does it look like? Desperate here guys, i dare not drive it u…

i am am interested in buying a zed, manual with leather tt 2+2 around 50K standard as poss in ex condition. what price should i be paying approx, what spec is best? jap or uk, is there a big difference in miles/condition/parts etc as insurance is around 1600 for jap and 800 for uk and experts who can give advice.......................

So what Exhaust Gaskets can be used on the Zed? I mean do you have to go and actually get the correct one's from the nissan garage, checked around locally and no one stocks them for the ZX, is there a way of cutting the cost corner? Well and the effort corner lol. Get back to me lads/and lasses :confused: Cheers Slade :cool:

Chucked a set of these in the back of the zed today, nice and easy to put in and dont need to go chopping the zed in half to get them in!! Sound ok too.

Think the reg started G85... parked outside bodyfit gym off desborough park road at about 6:30pm.
