Hi guys n gals I bought some 600cc Injectors from PFI in Canada that are supposed to be a direct fit for my fuel rails They came with some adapter collars for earlier series Zeds (which is mine) However Lee Dent says that they will not fit because my car as the earlier type injector caps and I need the newer type Quite honestly though Lee has described as best he can I can't quite figure which bit I need but here are two pics he sent - the first pic looks to me like one of the injectors I bought with the adapter collar fitted - the second one (the little flat thing) is apparently what I need - he calls it an Injector Cap Can anyone help? Does anyo…

just been randomly watching a show on channel 5 about a day in the life of Bailiffs and then i spotted this lovely motor

So, I have removed the knckered gear knob as far as I can. The leather and plastic underneath it came off easy. Still cannot get remaining metal part off. I have heated it up, twisted it in both directions until it starts to twist the actual stem, stared at it (willing it to come off) and it still will not budge. My only thought is that it has been threadlocked or superglued on. See pic. Any ideas? I have been through old threads on here and tried everything bar replacing the stem. Cheers Greg

Hi does anyone have a stand alone ECU or remapped one for sale? for automatic import Many thanks

Bloody hell coilpacks are getting expensive :scared: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-300ZX-Z32-VG30DET-Coilpacks-x6-/271448909519?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3A300+ZX&hash=item3f339da6cf

I tried to test the timing on my Z today and cannot see the timing mark on the pulley...... painted it white and on the timing marks.... Started her up, timing gun set to 15 degrees and there is NO mark visible on the top or sides of the pulley..... I can't see the mark anywhere? I had loosened off the CAS to adjust it and now have sod all acceleration...... bloody nightmare.... Starting to think the timing gun is faulty...... I did have to do a bit of moving the 'pick up' to get any strobing at all...... It almost looks like the timing is 180 degrees out, but couldn't be that as engine runs and ticks over nicely......

How can I check what the pressure will be before I install the actuators again? hand pressure pump or something? Will the boost pressure be the same as when using the pump? lets say the actuator arm starts to move at 8 psi, is 8psi the pressure I will get when driving?

Hi all i have a problem after installing a second hand injector,so i put in the injector on injector 1 tightned everything up turned on the ignition for the fuel pump to kick in ,then tryed to started the car and after 1 second the engine wouldnt turn,first i thought the timing belt jumped a cog so i took out the rad and turned the crank by hand and everything is free,but while trying to turn it first crank seemed very tight and i could hear a hissing coming from one of the injectors.Has anyone any input on what it could be.I have one of the dump valves off would this make any difference.Any advise would be fantastic.Also the car was runinng fine untill i put in the new i…

I didn't spot you but a mate was passing your house on the way to an interview and sent me a photo. Didn't expect to see another red one so nearby!

Hi, thought I'd spend some time on the zed today, as I had a water leak down by the ECU ( passenger foot well ) the leak has now been sorted I thought I'd check all the connections to all the stuff down there, basically unplugged everything carefully to check for any corrosion and to my surprise everything was clean and dry. so I just sprayed all connections with Pirelli electrical joint compound to make a good contact and to prevent any oxidation in the future............... now my car seems to be running faster than before???? any idea's?

Hopefully someone can help me. I have replaced 80% or so of my air vacuum hose's to silicone but some I just cant get to quite as easy and my car lately is not running right and I'm wondering if it’s due to a leak on an air hose I haven't yet replaced and wondered if there is a way of testing for an air leak myself at home. I have tried searching for help on here and Google but I can’t find anything, don't know if I'm being blind?

Can anyone please put me in the right direction I want a n/s/f and o/s/f lower ball joints. Where would be the best place to get these. Thanks

Have got a friend who's zx has the usual tatty looking windows and rata trims and have beenb striped back to the metal (chrome) underneath. Have looked for the how to guide for the paint used to respray them back to stock oem lookv but can't find it on the tapatalk. I remember some on her that resprayed there's with some kind of rubber/plastic paint and want to show him it. Please can someone pay a link up for me to it if possible. Thanks Dave

Firstly I have a Red Top 25 battery fitted. When I first installed it (2009), it worked just fine but sometimes, the engine won’t turn over – you just hear the solenoid click and the instrument lights dim. On occasion, when this happens the solenoid sticks on. Other times, the engine will turn straight away and start just fine. Or it can start just fine and the starter stays on with the engine running. My gut feeling is that I think I may need a larger battery with more Cranking Amps. Or do I need to strip the starter down and give it a good clean? Is that even possible? Any opinions welcome.

Firstly I'll apologise for putting this in the wrong section as I couldn't actually make a wanted thread from my phone, or at least didn't know how too.... I need a pair of 25mm spacers with bore size 66.1mm ASAP please good people! Thanks guys!
