According to my ECU I am. I did an ECU test and got the all clear, 55. I than ran the O2 test, when you rev the car for 2 mins at 2000rpm and the light is supposed to flash about 5 times every 10 seconds. Mine flashes on for 15-20 seconds on then goes off for 1-2 seconds then back on for 15-20 secs. Are my O2 Sensors wrong? Will they need replacing? I think they do. Plus my tail pipes are covered in soot. Stuart

On ebay i can get a supercharger for my 300zx Does anyone know if the electric superchargers are any good (my car is a non turbo) Also i thought i would need 2 as a 300zx has 2 air intake pipes and i thought you would connect it to them? am i wrong http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2408088743&category=33741

Does anyone know how to turn the bl00dy auto arming off. I know it's one of the switches but which one? It's pi55ing me right off now!!!:mad: :mad: :mad: Ivan

Hi guys, finally got me Zed back from the garage but it wont go above 7psi??? Jeff TT tells me it is most likely in safety boost as he chipped it for me and put boost jets on etc etc. Can anyone help at all cus my car feels really slow, well standard boost anyway (BORING)......:rolleyes:

Hi, Anyone know a good supplier of Blitz ? I need a live unit to go with my DC boost gauge (lovely!) and some other nice DC gauges... Thanks:)

Inlet additives...hmmmm..OK! There are many products on the market, from octain boosting filter oils to NoS, as we are fully aware. But has anyone regulated the flow of pure O2 into the manifold. Far cheeper, very easy to diaphram suppy at varying pressure, & its a combustable fuel support carrier . If the flow of air to fuel to O2 was calculated by a clever sod @ all throttle positions & a neumatic flow diaphram was used to feed the manifold, surly this would mean 'fuel/fuel carrer-combustable O2 & air ? And as O2 is ice cold on constant pressurised deliverance - is a thought too. Probably been done already, but i've been asked why not. …

anyone know anything about these???? got the chance to buy one cheap while my zeds off the road, just dont want to be stuck with (another!!) money pit!!!

Due to another slight change of plan i am trying to source a EGT gauge and oil temp gauge,but cant seem to find any place with a EGT gauge,any ideas,cheers, Tony:(

Hi Guy's Help!! For the past week or so i have had a faint smell of Antifreeze first thing in the morning, once the heater comes on it goes. Anyway today i smell it and also see a drop of dirty water/Antifreeze on my carpet on both the passenger and driver's side. What has happened and more importanly how much is it gonna cost to fix. Any help much appreciated. Cheers Dave.

I'm not being lazy, have done a search on this, which got so many results that the prob could be coilpacks, P.T.U, airflow thingy, plugs???....optimax?? Right heres what seems to be wrong; The zed has had a tiny occasional misfire (when cold) on startup for about a month or so, nothing major just like it ticks over fine for about 10 secs then misses a beat for a split second then fine again, Its never realy bothered me as after 2 mins or so always sorted itself out. This morning my brother wakes me up when he goes to work to tell me my brake lights have somehow stayed on overnight???WTF?? (anyway thats another story!!) So while im outside i think ill put it…

Yeah I know you've probably given the same advice to 100 other people, but I'm serious about getting a 300 TT. So here goes:- I'm looking for an unmodified (less likely to have been ragged to within an inch of it's life I figure) 300ZX TT. Ive looked in the auto trader and there are a few about in my price range. I'm not to bothered whether its an jap import and I'm considering the auto as preferable. I've looked on the web sites and basically they look fairly stirdy, but I've got an MR2 at the moment and I'm aware that a small problem can be a big price tag, which I want to avoid. I've had insurance quotes from confused.com around £1300 which is expensive but …

Where has their Website gone??

Hi, I've wanted to own a 300zx TT for a very long time now, but family situation has meant the need for a more praticle car (well kind of) Now the wife has learned to drive she can take the praticle route and I can have some fun. 2 Questions that Im worried about are (I would be looking at getting a 2+2): 1. Costs : I currently drive a 91 Bmw 535is so Im used to higher than average bills, but Im interested to know how it will compare. In regards to fuel ecomony I get 22mpg on a long (100mile) Motorway run, and about 17mpg around town. Parts and servicing costs are more than your average car but not too bad (I stay clear from Dealers). 2. Int…
