I had nothing to lose as my AFM was Fooked! Took it all apart,and soldered all joints,also cleaned the hot wire with contact cleaner and a cotton wool bud At Trax the car would not rev above 2500rpm,just had a test drive now she is bouncing off the 7000 mark! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! nice saving of £380 ------------------ KEEP IT SIDEWAYS;).

I'd like to recommend the parts dept at Nissan Widnes for an excellent service. I've spent more cash than i'd like to think about there over the last year getting me Z sorted. They gave me a discount, and to top it all off I walked in there today asking for an oil filter. They gave it to me, and said have it on the house?!?! Jeepers, how much have i spent?!!? Oh, I also got a crimbo card off them for being the largest spending private buyer! Talk aboot service! ------------------ 'I hope I die peacefully in my sleep like my Grandfather and not like his passengers....'

Sorry if i'm posting this on the wrong forum, but hey, that's Ford drivers for ya ! Managed to get hold of a Turbo Timer and figured the majority of you guys/girls on here use them, considering the cost of your replacement turbos ! Thing is.....it's got no wiring diagram with it, only the block/bullet connectors that come out of the back of the unit. Anyone any ideas what i have to connect to what on it? The reward for the correct wiring diagram will be some of the worst (never seen ) photogrpahs of Tooley for your amusement ! (Sorry Tooley, but i NEED these details LOL). It's an R Spec Auto Turbo Timer Model No. ATT24X. There's a sheathed cable coming out…

Can't beleive it's a year today since the horrid attack on the Twin Towers ------------------ KEEP IT SIDEWAYS;).

Has anyone got one? Is painting extra as I've heard a plasticiser has to be added? Got a tough choice now between the Scarab, or Luke (Zcentre) reckons the 99 spec is nice too. hmmmmmmmmmmm, decisions, decisions

Thinking of a boost/chip upgrade, and not sure which boost controller to go for - any ideas?

17" OZ Saturn alloys with good tyres, currently on my blue 300zx at C&S Woods garage in Astley near Grasshopper pro sport. £400. Also standard alloys with good tyres up for grabs, open to offers.

just a quickie for you knowledgeable types out there! I'm just coming to the end of slapping a manual box on my previously auto Z, one thing that bothers me is if I leave my auto ECU in, do I need to wire the inhibitor switch into anywhere to allow the car to start? Instead of this, what would happen if I plugged in a spare manual ECU (same age) into the car and tried that. I've looked at the manual (for the UK car) and the manual ECU doesn't seem to detect that the car's in neutral for starting, as far as I can see it would only require one wire splicing. Any ideas? ------------------ 'I hope I die peacefully in my sleep like my Grandfather and not l…

Probably the easiest job you could possibly carry out on the car. Jack up, wheel off. Remove the wheel arch liner drill that hole baby! Right where the pipe bends into a downward U shape. Water drained out and then the other side was the same. No more annoying gurgle at idle now...sorted! ------------------ "My mother was like a sister to me, only we didn't have sex quite so often."

Anyone know what the colour of Vin Weasels RX7 is. Any ideas on name or paint codes etc. ------------------

parked up at lakeside and came back to a silver zed parked next to me, maybe this will jog someones memory Me thinks he was showing off by reverse parking :\ was a very clean zed though.

I drive past a nice looking black 300zx almost every morning and afternoon on my way to and from work...makes me very jealous..oh well, just a few more months and I'll have mine..no reason for this post really, just work is really slow today! ------------------ Rik

A friend of mine is considering moving up to a high performance sports car and is looking to spend about up to £8k on an import. He is looking at the Toyota MR2 Turbo, Mazda RX7 Turbo, Mitsubishi GTO Turbo and Nissan Skyline GTR but I didn't think he would get much for his money or would he? What should he look out for and what are these grades I keep hearing about? Leigh - you do this don't you? ------------------ Z first and anything else is secondary!

Hi, someone was telling me at Billing, I can't remember who but he had a Red TT with nice 18" wheels (Ok so that could be anyone!!), anyway he was telling me that If you lift the handbreak up one notch, this stiffens up the rear suspension. Is this true ?!? Mike
