This is why I was asking for all that data a while back. I still need detailed turbo information. If I had enough data, I could do a run with a modified turbo too. Does anyone have these figures??? Regards Robert. ------------------ I only use the brakes so I can accelerate all over again.

Hi chaps, Made a few enquiries today concerning auto box coolers, with reference to Jap spec not having as much cooling as a UK spec car (ie only one side of the rad header rather than both sides as per UK car) Speaking with a normal rad company they seem to think any 16, 19 or 25 row cooler of 1/2" bore dependant on space will do.He went on to say that MG midgets use a 16 row that is freely available for around £40! sound good so far? Add a bit of piping and delete the existing rad connections (may help the engine temp also)surely £50 will do it.Now if so I am defo going to do it and will take some photo`s if anyone interested? the guy I spoke to was at a rad…

while i was on a training course with Tracker a couple of buildings down. ------------------ I feel the need, the need for speed!

Anyone have either a new or second hand good quality gearbox oil cooler please.............?

Hard to explain but here goes... when the engine has warmed up I get a knocking through the gearbox lever which can also be felt and heard on the engine. When I am in neutral it seems to be louder than when I engage a gear. The oil pressure and engine temp seem fine...any ideas please?

We should all stop this petty bickering and chill out, spare a thought for poor old Johnny who is up in court for 113mph on Friday. The cap removal procedure starts on Thursday evening It it cant be removed they may have to adjourn the case Paul

does anyone no of any good insurance companies who deal with upgraded cars?

Hi all, I have just sold my Z and have 4 original alloys with Avon low profile tyres. Price for all of them = £95 ono. Email me for details: hcheemayy:yahoo.co.uk

Do i need to get new brake pads from Nissan or does anyone know of another source i.e. cheaper/quicker. Uprated pads would be prefered, but i understand from Demon Tweeks that EBG do not do any for NA Z. ------------------ ray

I have been inspired to clean my engine bay, the trouple is it's covered in laquer and dust / crap. I've looked at the Autoglym website which suggests covering all electrics with Clingfilm, cleaning it with their engine cleaner stuff, rinsing it with water then coating it with their rubber cleaner. I did clean the engine on my 200sx once, it din't run right for about 6 weeks after and so am reluctant to try on my 300. Has anyone got any good advice on products / methods to ensure I can do this easily / safely, or am I asking for trouble. Thanks in advance. Herman

Hi All, I went to one of these 'wash street' type automatic car washes - the ones that drag you along and smack your mirrors all over the place.... Half way through I felt a bump and the drivers seat, in which I was sitting, bumped up from the right hand side a good cm or more (I was too surprised and didn't have a ruler to measure exactly anyway). It was a split second thing but I'd like to know what the hell that was all about - can anybody enlighten me??? Needless to say I won't ever be cleaning my car again :-( Cheers!! RobH PS. What's the buzzing sound that comes from the little vent type thing in the T-Bar??

How do you drive your auto in a drag race?Is there a certain technic or you just select D and floor it?

How much for the alc mate?

Heard you re selling your boost controller if so which is it and how much?

first of all does this sound ok with you tech guys? ive been out in the car testing out my new boost gauge and boost controller. i set my controller to 0.60 and run the car my new gauge said 10 psi. i then set the high boost to 1.0 and run the car it hit 14 psi now for the guys interested in stock figures 14 psi stock was 10 psi on new gauge on 14 psi on the new gauge the stock was just stuck at 14 psi well this proved this proved to me how shit the stock gauge is!

does anyone know how to work out a rough BHP figure using a 1/4 mile time and your cars weight, or whatever? anyone? for example 14.4 and 1800kgs. and 95mph, or something like that. ben.

I've discovered I have an K&N Induction kit, so why does it not sound like I have one? The cone filter was really dirty and the second mesh piece is just as bad. I'm now really confused, I'm also confused how a Nissan Garage missed this and a specialist missed it too??
