Does the ECU used in the 300zx use a standard EPROM IC? I have seen references to an 8 bit and a 16 bit ECU (I think it was on the Jim Wolf technologies website), what are the differences. I.e. Does it depend on the year/ destination market. Would it also depend on the destination market what map was programmed into the ECU. I'm guessing that as the driving conditions (speed restrictions and emmisions) would be different the map would be also. Also if you perform an ECU upgrade, is the replacement of the EPROM all that is neccessary, or is a daughter board/jumper wire modification required. Thanks in advance for an information.

I've a set of Skyline GT-R33 Brembo brakes for sale with braided hoses for the Skyline with a set of newish pads and a pair of discs. I believe that they'd go onto a 300ZX without much bother.. I'm looking for £500 for the lot... Cheers,

When looking at the engine there is a bottle behind the right light with coolant written on the cap of it. What is this?

I've spotted this over on scoobynet, there is an offer for the Navtrak tracking system: heres the link http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/Forum26/HTML/000103.html Heres some text from the post: As I'm sure you all know, Navtrak offer a satelite vehicle tracking system that assists in the recovery of your vehicle should it be stolen. They offer 2 systems - the passive & the proactive.
