What ever you do, if you decide to convert (or have had a conversion) from auto to manual, make sure you buy (or have had fitted) a spigot bush to put in the crankshaft. If you don't then it'll make a rattling noise at low revs & will probably knacker the gearbox in the long run. Auto engines don't have these bearings fitted so you have to fit one yourself. This bush only costs £3-10 +VAT from Nissan but without it, the car will sound like a bag of shite!!! Trust me, I found out the hard way & have had to drop the box again!

Hey guys, I have tried everything I can think of to cure my detonation problem and nothing has helped. So far I've tried running on Optimax exclusively (well over 2000 miles by now), changed to a JWT chip, changed to NGKxx-11b spark plugs from Courtesy, cleaned every sensor/connector I could get my hands on, even installed a JWT pop-charger and corrected the timing to 15degrees BTDC. Still the same rattling noise between 2k and 3k revs under light load. Under Jeff's thread Phil_m mentioned clogged up injectors and the lambda sensor. How do you clean the injectors and how do you check that the lambda sensor is functioning properly? If there is anyone else out ther…

Guys, any feedback much appreciated. I need to get a car cover for my Z (an outdoor cover). I'm having trouble finding somewhere that sells them for the Z. Any ideas? Anyone here have one? I need this cover by the end of this week. Cheers, Andy

The Forum may be for general discussion on all things Z and Car related as well as the odd spattering of crap humour. A bit of friendly jossin is fine but Daym - The shit i have had to wade thru this morning is ridiculous. I had to delete and lock several threads just to reduce my blood pressure to something reasonable. I dont want to make this site just like tt.net but things are gettin stupid.... If you are gonna post on here with the deliberate intent of winding people up, I suggest you go back to your hollow little existance of masterbating into handfulls of your own feaces or whatever other sick shit turns you on - If you continue to piss peopl…

m25, watford direction just after m3 junction, white, single one side exhaust, after market spoiler, red TT decals and front nose panel with intakes - phat tyres! Was this you ?

I've had my suspicions a couple of times recently so I set the slip down to 5%. This morning I had a major moment and have now set it down to 0% and the wheels still spin when pulling away ! When I work out what the problem is I'll let y'all know. But in the mean time keep an eye on it just in case !!!! One clue may be that the green diag/gearchange light flickers a few times when I close the throttle before coming to a stop. I have this configured for gear change, so there's no reason for this to happen. When I checked the config on Friday it looked fine and the logging works fine, so maybe I'll try re-training it first.

Hi guys, have a thoughts to share to see if a few heads together can resolve this. Since been involved with zeds (some 4 years) it has only been a recent (this year) that I have got involved with pinking or detonation call it what you may at a level which is odd. I know of at least 4 cars on this forum and many others who have posted that detonation is a slight or in other cases a major concern.I myself can occassionaly hear it on my own car when the correct load conditions are present. My first thought is that I know this was not a big problem when I had my first zed 4 years ago, is it a continued degregation in petrol quality maybe? My second thoug…

I know this is seriously off topic but I want to get hold of a handheld GPS unit. Does anyone have any cheap sources and, even better, does anyone had any advice on which ones are good ? I definitely want Garmin and also want local mapping facilities. Ideally I also want altitude readings. I'm thinking of either Etrex Legend of Emap Dave P.S. Warren - a fiver says you can't get an argument out of this thread !
