All my bushes are shot so looking at this set up rather than replacing the bushes.What do you think? Is there a better alternative?

Original exhaust on my 1989 import zed has given up the ghost! What are reasonably priced replacements? Dont want anything noisy just close to standard . Thanks

As the tittle above suggests. I have aluminium front callipers but I do no no if I have 26mm ones or 30 mm ones? how can I tell has anyone got any dimensions? Little history, i purchased the callipers from Ebay. I do not have the discs that came with them. The Callipers are for a build I am doing. Lotus excel - With a Volvo Redblock engine,

I've just started the restoration of my Zed after it's been sat on my drive for 10 years. After taking the passenger wing off i noticed a canister. It has two rubber tubes connected to it and what looks like a small white filter.What is it and can i delete it?

Evenin’ all! My import ‘96TT would originally have had the later electric HICAS, but when I took her to Jimmer for her first check-up one of the first things he pointed out was the lock-out bar the previous owner had fitted. From that and the lowered suspension I suspect she might have drifted in her younger days. Anyway I’ve recently wondered exactly what might have been removed when deleting electric HICAS, and whether it might be practical to re-instate the system. But I have no idea what the electric set-up involved. Clearly the PAS hydraulics to the rear will be absent, and replaced with some form of actuators, but does anyone have access to a diagram or descrip…

What diameter is the front OEM Sway bar on a JDM LWB? I'm away from home so can't measure it to buy the correct bushes. I thought 26.5mm, but I've read various conflicting information.

Hi all, A really strange fault with my Zed today (1993 TT Auto), after about a mile, the engine cut out. No misfire, no judder, no warning - it just cut out and all the dash warning lights came on. I coasted into a parking space, drew to a halt and restarted the car......all good. Half a mile along the road , the same thing happened, no warning other than all the dash lights on. Restarted again no problem, drove home (another half mile) and parked up. I checked under the bonnet for loose wires, checked the PTU terminals and wiring - all okay. Let her idle for ten minutes, again - all okay. No hesitation, she idled away fine. Took her out again an…

As above. Should the ecu on an impul be marked impul?

To some, one of the most annoying 'features' of the Z32 is the extra wipe when turning off the windscreen wipers. Here is a solution published on TT.net. http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/general/view/2645417/New-video-for-the-weekend.html Details here on how to safely open up the wiper control module located on the RH (OS) inner wing near the firewall. http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/general/view/2645450/It-works-fantastic-Thank-you-for-sorting-this-out.html

It was the first decent, mild and dry day of the year - so I thought, why not take the Zed out for a spin. Did anyone else think the same.....? I covered about 50 miles across the Chilterns - so technically still local (and I did combine it with the supermarket run) - nice A-roads, a blast on the M40 and some traffic-free B-road action. I wasn't the only modern classic car owner out and about either. I saw some nice 80s and 90s machinery on my travels - so it seems a few others had the same idea! From a couple of '90s Porsche 911s, a 944, a very smart R129 Merc SL500, a Lotus Esprit and a Lotus Elan. I guess today was the day, that people thought their cars had …

Afternoon all, It is now time for me to install the MAC valve to suppor tthe change across to Standalone ECU (Link), Question is, where is the reccomended / ideal location for mounting the valve itself, The vac cable and wiring is installed and passes throught the bulk head bear to the Aircon condensate drain point. Thoughts from thos who use a MAC valve please, Thanks Sayers

So I'm looking at buying my new z next month but can't decide. I can get one imported from Japan by a decent company within my budget and they claim its spotless or should I just get one in the UK, plenty about. From what I can see the car coming from Japan will be low mileage, looks pretty clean on pics, underside will be treated and all I'll have to do is tax and insurance it when it arrives everything would have been sorted registration, mot ect. only downside is it's an auto.

Anyone know what theses indicators are? Just so I know what my options are if I do change them. Also the Perspex strip, I’ve never seen them like that, aren’t they usually black??‍♂️

Got round to finally subscribing and getting pictures up of the zed. Was taken before it was put into hibernation. Just sorting a few bits out to bolt onto it, cosmetic wise.

Hi there, I bought Wednesday 10 Feb CCW today & this was inside! art

Trying to find some boost pipes in polished aluminium or stainless, where’s the best place to buy them from? Also I noticed there’s two type of radiator bottom hose (big L shape) one set is chrome with 2 silicone sleeves and the is just a big silicone hose, has anyone fitted either? Does the chrome pipe rattle about? Not sure what keeps it in place.

I am looking for a pair of front TT calipers for my car. The 30mm iron TT version. I tried to do the brakes today at a friends house as he has all the kit needed and to cut a long story short the discs didn't fit because I need the 30mm iron calipers rather than the 26mm ones and to make matters worse the thread for the brake pipe in the actual caliper has, in the past, been crossed threaded and stripped. I'm glad we found that issue as I've been driving it around for years and it could have popped off at anytime. The car had to be trailered back as the brakes cant be fixed without some new calipers, so its sitting outside looking rather sorry for its self. If …

Hi all, I’m in the process of restoring my 91 auto TT 2+2 and the ecu needs to be replaced due to a previous owner having ‘fiddled’ with it unprofessionally. Can anyone recommend a place to get one from? Preferably an upgraded version to improve performance. Thanks

I've seen Zeds with 350Z seats in a fair few times but wondered if it's that difficult to adopt seats from another car ? The seats in my Mrs BMW 1 Series are full leather (non-electric but heated) and pretty comfortable, and are low too. Would these go in a Zed ? My drivers seat has lost it's shape and I've been looking around. 300ZX leather interiors are like rocking horse s**t ! Can't afford a retrim at the moment. Merc E Coupes have some nice seats too and obviously much more modern. I would of course avoid electric controlled from the door and airbags.

Hello all, would anybody know if the fitment of a targa top are the same or different between the lwb and swb? many thanks, Aron.

Two on auction at the moment. not everyones cup of tea, but i think it is a decent enough widebody. https://www.copart.co.uk/lot/32474751 another one was a very clean late series before the accident, unfortunatelly damage is way too damaged and also cat b. https://www.copart.co.uk/lot/59093850
