Beautiful car which has a Temp. Sensor Problem (Code 13 on ECU).

If someone wants to make a sensible offer, please do so... photo available. Please mail me on drewkearneyuk@yahoo.co.uk

The car also makes huge horsepower 562.5 hp and 572.8 lbs-ft of torque to the wheels. Some guys just get it so right. When i see this, i realise why i bought my car to start with.

I was ringing around to get a steel crank i was told by the owner of Tuning Japanese that us 300zx owners never seriously spend on our cars!!!! fucking cheek! when they gave me a price i compared it and it was ok so i gave them a call back to find out how long it would be and i was told i was not a serious enquirer and that they didnt want my business!!! i quote "We take many calls from 300zx owners, but frankly no-one appears to wish to spend the kind of money on them that they need to develop serious power. We can all supply a big back box, air filter and the like.. But we specialise in getting the best performance" another quote "You replied OK, I will ge…

Well, not completely finished, but good enough, if I waited till it was completely done no one would ever see it. I've whacked a quick site together, sorry for the delay to all those who were waiting, just been busy..... I'd love for the site to become a place where the many members of the Z community share 3D artwork and models they've done so if you do make any bodykits, backgrounds, images or animations, if they'd submit them to be put on the site that would be great. The URL is http://www.aus300zxclub.com/3dz or click the image I wanted to have a fancier site and many more downloads, images and videos but I just haven't got the time.... will u…

Ok, I have all the symptoms of temp sensor problem. Car starts from cold as normal. Heater used to come on about the same time as the guage started moving off the cold but now doesn't come on at all. Engine runs rich (smells of petrol and has hestition when warm). Temperature guage stays at normal for a while then shoots up towards max before I kill the engine. Heater is still cold. Occasionally the heater has kicked for a few minutes and then gone cold so problem is intermittant All what I'd expect if sensor is kaput. Searching through previous posts the black sensor is for the guage, the yellow one is for the ECU. I have taken the connector off the yell…

Any rally fans out there may not know that Tony Pond passed away recently. Cancer was the cause. People may remember him from his days in the Metro 6R4. Leigh.

We all know that the article that started the film was about a Nissan 300ZX and that the character that Dom is based on drives a 300ZX. By the looks of the special features Dom was meant to have Nissan 300ZX. On the animation real life comparison special feature, the animation features a ZX driven by Dom. This is off the comparison of the first race. Well maybe he will have one in "The Fast and The Furious 2" Hope the story line is better though.

Amused me anyway...

I know naaarthing about the blighters, but what i do know is that i need some new'uns by April (MOT). The old one's got holes in it the size of Graham Norton's arseole!!!! I'm on a bit of a shoestring so nothing that's gonna burn a hole in the pocket. Excuse my pathetic ignorance,but....... . Is it easy to fit? (welding needed) . Do i have to replace it all? (just back box making racket) . Should i buy, then take to kwik fit? I live in Bolton so anyone who could help me out would b on the receiving end of a pub table full of Stellas!!!! Ta fellas

I have a 91 Jap imported 300zxtt and I need a dash clock as mine cant keep the correct time and all of the HICAS stuff that is behind the steering wheel including the loomy bits. I made the mistake of braking it when I replaced the steering wheel with a Momo one. Email me on jvnewcomb1961@yahoo.co.uk if you have any of these bits.

I am posting this with a hope that someone can help a fellow Zed owner who doesnt have access to this place He has a JSpec Auto TT with low mileage in good all round nick. When he accelerates hard it pulls strong upto, say, 5-6000 rpm and cuts dead. Not a rev limiter as it has only developed this fault recently. Could a faulty PTU cause these symptoms? Having not been in his car I cannot say much more than this, he is a mechanic himself but [not a zed one ] cant sort it. If it was a fuelling problem would it not stutter? - this is as though the engine is ceasing ALL activity until he lifts off, then he can resume acceleration. If anyone can…
