Ok, Some of you have been enormously helpful with resolving the misfire of my car. Thank you! and shout out to Jim @PowerZed who supplied an ECU next day. Next problem is after having the car dry stored for a few years then had the MOT done. Took it to a different place where it failed. the car had done almost no miles since the previous. Below is the fail points. Ignore the light bulbs, fog light, tyres and number plate.... I wanted some advice. feel free to chime in with any feedback. I want to get the car back on the road cheaply for now as I am out of work due covid and sold our other cars. The main question I need to know is can I do this work mysel…

Hello my fellow 300zx owners! I just recently bought 1996 NA edition and there are some things to figure out. I have no mechanical background whatsoever so please be gentle :D So I have done all the basic maintenance and some repairs including replacing knock sensor, spark plugs, engine belt, new braking system etc. Now the main problem is this rattling sound and losing power at around 2000-2500 rpm. Has anyone heard this kind of sound before and have any idea where to start looking? I cleared all the error codes with obd II bluetooth device so I attaced the picture of the codes before clearing. After clearing all the error codes the only code that popp…

Can one of the moderators please help me. I’m trying to find my old journal I created on here over 10 years ago. its got some important info on my Zed build. Infact most of the info on my build. For example which brake discs I used for my custom brake setup. I’m not sure whether I used the r32 or r33 discs. I’ve got Porsche Calipers which I had fabricated to fit. I need new discs and need the info so I know which type of disc to buy.

Starting to lose my rag now- trying to install my copy of Conzult on Win10 upgrade. Worked fine on Win7 on another PC. Now despairing as apparently installs, but when I try to open, comes up with Exception EReadError in module conzult.exe at 0001A4C7. Error reading comportset.ComProperty: Registry error (win error code:2). I know we have some serious techies on here- which I am not- and hope you can advise! What have I done wrong? Anyone else have a problem? Is there an update for Conzult?- as OBD etc seem to say it works OK with Win10. Hate Win10 now- wouldnt have moved from Win7 if they hadnt forced me! Dave ??

Hi everyone Has anyone had an airbag wheel recovered ? Can you recommend a firm and advise rough costs ? Many thanks for all as always Mark

Please can someone advise the original source vehicle for the chrome door handles that also fit the 300ZX ? many thanks Mark

Seen this 300zx for sale on ebay and its very lets say personalized rather than modified. But what made my jaw drop was the front grill I know a bird can sometimes fly into your grill but to have one flying out of it was something else. I think I know now why Funkysi sold his Z and this would definitely send him over the edge of reason.

Are there any OEM style bushes available for the suspension? I hate polybushes with a passion (although I am aware I will need to get them for the subframe as there is no other option). So aside from Nismo bushes and ES/Whiteline/SuperPro polybushes are there any other options? (I'm prepared to go for Nismo, but want to look and explore all the alternatives before committing.

Looking for the font for the 300ZX logo, would anyone happen to have it or know where I can get it? Have a customer asking me to make him a 300ZX sign. Thanks in Advance!

hi guys looking at changing my ecu chip over the winter, I currently have a jap map in mine which seems to be overfilling on the over run (popping from exhaust) although the car runs ok, I want to get rid of the boy racer 'pop' I've come across turbonoz stage 1 chips, couple of questions are these any good? and they list 2 for a manual t/t one standard and one listed as a jwt, descriptions on both are exactly the same so anyone got any idea of the differences? the other option is I have my old zed currently for parts, which has a chip in I bought from a club member around 16/17 years ago, not sure if this was a Jim Dixon chip (or a modified version) but I always had an au…

Hi all Didn't have the equipment to pull the engine out so I'm removing the drivers turbo whilst the engine is in the car. Everything is off except the manifold heat shield to access the manifold nuts, cant seem to figure out how to remove it. Its loose but it wraps around the front of the manifold and wont squeeze past the turbo intake. It's a 1993 jap import. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi All, Looking for a decent winter cover, Cars in a sheltered driveway so not really bothered about the wind. TIA.

Anyone know any mobile 300zx mechanics in NE England? Cheers.

Hi Guys, Is there a relay for the fuel injection (not the pump) I have fuel ok but no spark? Cheers IA

These are not the Aruba Dave GZA replicas and are of a flatter design and possibly poorer quality compared to the OEM or GZA keys. However they are available now: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/nissan-300zx-Fairlady-Z32-Master-Blank-Titanium-key-Replica/184520268543?hash=item2af643daff:g:vVMAAOSw5epfmJyh The seller's first batch sold out pretty quickly: https://www.ebay.com/itm/nissan-300zx-Fairlady-Z32-Master-Blank-Titanium-key-Replica-/184513489757?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&nma=true&si=pB%2BztZ6Kl8C78Sar%2B%2FPD1BxQKXk%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc

As title Thanks

As I have just replied to Garry about discussing Zeds, I will just bring you up to date with my zed. I imported the Z myself back in 2014. At the end of 2019 my 3rd auto box failed. I managed to source a full manual conversion in January 2020. New Exedy lightweight flywheel, clutch plate & bearing. New manual gearbox loom purchased. All coil packs & spark plugs replaced Front sills replaced tomorrow & ready to drive home Friday all being well. Art
