...yesterday. Whilst driving.....somewhere....can't even remember where we were going...sorry - having a blonde day - I saw one (1) black import with high level brake light and one (1) Zed convertible in what looked like metallic blue zoom past going the other way round the M25. They were going clockwise, we were going anti-clockwise. Oh and I know that no one cares but we were going to a Meggido gig in London. Remembered!

ive done about 10 thousand miles since i got my tt. after the first thousand my gearbox started to whine abit. i thaught it was the clutch release bearing. it was gettin quite noisey now so i booked it in at nissans. turns out its not the clutch its the bearings in the box. they told me its a complete box strip with all new bearings.quoted me aprox£750. i pick it up wensday. my car has done 65 thousand.is it normal for this to happen or have i been unlucky? and the price sounds reasonable considering the work involved. what do you lot think? dave

Hi, Just thought I would fill you in on the days proceedings! I thought I would try and repair a minor coolant leak in the Z before I was gonna it on the Long trip ,to Peters to get it sprayed. The leak in question is on the hose between the housing for the temp senders and the block. It is Saturday so I thought I had better get the hose to repair it before the shop closed! Take everything apart and the hose I have is too tight to fit on or too big for the spring clips to fit around it. Will have a look in Halfords Tomo see if they do anything. I have also decided to upgrade my old socket set and go for a whizzbang new one, does anyone know of decent web…

decent ones only though,

Anyway does anyone no the best place to go to get replacement seals? Cheers rob

hi all new face on site.just a small question.i have a tt fairlady 1990 import. when i get to 110 i cant go any faster. also its an automatic. any one else had this prob if so plz can u give advice on how to rectify it. cheers.

I am after some gauges for my car, turbo and oil pressure. Im not getting blitz ones even though they are good and look nice, I cant really afford to spend that much on them, so I am going for bog standard, but good, ones. Reading about the oil pressure gauges, there are 2 types, Electrical and Mechanical. Whats the difference? How do I set them up? And the turbo one too. Can I just wire them up to the sensors already on the car. Stuart

While I was changing my brake pads I found half of one of the timing belts flapping around! The belt is on the passenger side. Its the power steering/water pump belt I think can anyone confirm please. What would happen if this belt snaps? would it get me to a dealer now its just half a belt? Thanks lads P.S can anyone in the london area change these belts? ------------------ Trev 1990 300ZX TT 2+2(import) http://www.300zx.co.uk/rides/trey/

Stillen Type III, anyone got it, or have any pics of them on cars? Ive only got one pic and it sucks.

this was covered recently but i cant find the post. I had the front windows out recently to get tinted, and they worked when they were put back in as you have to line the windows up to make sure they fit back correctly. but ive noticed now that the front passenger side window doesnt open. Ive not heard a clicking, but that may be down to the bass in the car but the window wont open using either the passenger or drivers side button, yet the drivers side is fine. any solutions?

im getting a stainlees steel exhaust with twin dtm pipes on either side. now id like advice on which air filter people recommend for a 1990 na 300zx. Also im interested in buying the na JWT ecu thats up for sale in the for sale forum. Is the JWT ecu worth $340 and is it any good? and which air filter should i go for. Ive been told that with exhaust/filter/ecu i could go from 230hp to about 250hp is that true? thx
