Its not working for me. No one is replying to messages and now I cant log on to it. Any one else problems? Stuart

I dont really know how much my ZX is worth now its a different shape but can anyone give me an idea and is anyone possibly interested in buying it for spares or repair, or would i be better breaking it for spares. Basically it needs a new front end it had a dead centre front impact approx 15mph. Damage is bumper, light panel, air filter squashed, oil rad leaking bonnet creased 1 wing moved back 2mm both lights are good. As far as i can see there is no major structual damage, wings are fine they aren't dented. Slam panel a funny shape, and its insurance wise un-economical repair. Whats it worth and does anyone want to buy it? Its a 1990 TT Jap import with 67,000…

Bought a bloody full on pinball table.. its got a supercharger, redline mania, shift gear on redline, run red lights to piss the police off, jackpots for outrunning the filthy porkers, its bloody great fun: Its got great music: and it preaches some soppy message about not taking drugs too - marvellous: Love it !!!!!!!!! ------------------ ->Glen

Right lads I wan't to put my car on the rides section, but I don't have a digital camera. So I look on ebay and there are 375 of the buggers from £1 to £1500. Now all I know about them is the higher the pixels the better the image(correct?) I only want to spend about £100 so i'm not looking for the world. Has anyone seen a good deal on ebay? Preferably a "buy it now" as I am want one now. I don't mind paying more if it is a special deal. any idears? Thanks Rick

Now I know they are the same thing, my question(s) is: I know they go on the intercooler outlet, where is that? I used (do I dare say this!) Max P (arghhhhhh) and looked at Mac's 300ZX. Now is that the blitz thing I can see or is that his induction kit? I don't think I want the noisey BOV, does it matter if it dumps to atmosphere or back into the system? Also, I removed the headlight middle panel and found a big K&N filter? Is this the 'normal' intake? Don't laugh too hard. Thanks

Hi Guys, The previous owner of me Z damaged the door mirror and glued it back like he bought a the National Glue stock and had to use it by the sell by date. Anyway peeled some of the glue away and the only bit that is broken is the black plastic section. That you screw into to get the mirror to attach to the plastic mount attached to the door. Its the bit that the mirror axis upon to fold back. I was wondering if I araldite this section back together what are the chances of it folding bsck again. When I pres the fold switch I can hear the motor whirring but no folding???? Mark

Is a BOV the same as a dump valve? Excuse my stupidity, but I'm not very technically minded!

Hi Guys, Excuse my In Car Entertainment Naivity but I have never even fitted a stereo to a motor!! Many questions, on the convertible I have the original Jap radio and CD Changer. I have another CD changer and Radio from another car, the Cd Changer is a CDX 51 that I have to replace the original Sony one! My question is will the more modern one jump less and have better sound quality than original Sony issue. Secondly this CD changer has a seperate controll panel nothing to do with radio, would my new 2nd hand radio sony xr-c500rds still work with the old cd player. This new radio has 4 x 35W output yet I only have two door speakers, do I just igno…

sorry wrong name [This message has been edited by written off my z (edited 17-06-2002).]

ok, you guys know your shit. i need some pointers. i have just installed a bleed valve. [yes, thankyou, no lectures] now, i only get 6 or 7 psi out of my GTO and i wanted to see if i could get a bit more. i installed the valve in the correct place. and opened it a bit, then a bit more......then a bit more. and i could only register about 8 psi. anyone any ideas why this is? i think my aftermarket boost guage is pretty accurate. i think i installed the bleed valve correctly. why only 8 psi. with the amount i have the valve open it should have been bloody 30 psi! and the car didn;t feel that much faster than normal, so i am sure the guage is …

i hear on the forum talk about billing. can you guys tell me what its about, apart from obviously zeds being there, where it is etc. much appreciated. cheers Steve

I'm still trying to tell if my gearbox is on it's way out... I get ok acceleration in 1st, slightly better in 2nd but still not stella, much better in 3rd, ok in 4th , ok in 5th. I can also only do about 60 in 2nd before it hits 6000rpm. Is this normal as I havn't been in another Zed to compare it. Herman

It passed without any problems at all.... In perfect working order!! The mechanic from FC Motors was calling the other guys over to look at the 'lack' of space in the engine bay, promting question of "how could you work on that?" and "Bet it shifts don't it?"
