There is no x or h pipe on my exhaust. Do i need it ? Would it change the sound of exhaust ?

Transmission problem? Been driving her every day for the last month with no issues got in today and noticed a whinning sound coming from the auto transmission was fine yesterday does this mean its on its way out or could it be a top up? I know that gearbox oil shouldn't really get low unless theres a leak, this has just happened overnight which I find odd, hoping its something simple and not a gearbox :( Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

Finaly got my stainless exhaust on :-) and as per usual some pic's and a couple of others :-)

http:// http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=163495&st=0 I take it no one read this before they bought their zed! Mine's up for sale now!

There is a car auction place right where I live and my boys came in all excited "mum mum there's a zed in there" so looked on the auction site and yes they're right there certainly is one at the moment bid is £100 has no keys, no mot, rust and scratches but its a zed!!!! Don't know wether to bid for it or not

Hi, After finding out on my previous thread that I need to pull the engine to do the head gasket I've been mulling over what to do next. The engine suffered a pretty serious overheat last year, caused by the nearside turbo water pipe. Last week I finally got round to replacing the pipe, and doing a water by pass while the plenum was off. I think I knew really that the gasket was knackered but needed to sort the pipe to be sure :( So the dilemma is, do I pull the engine, have the heads skimmed & do gaskets or replace the engine completely with a known working one (yet to be sourced)? The gasket kit and skimming is going to cost several hundred and that…

well you wouldn't think it was the middle of November really sunny down here so got the chance to take some pictures

Hi People, can anyone confirm what percentage of force goes to the front and rear of a zed when you press the brake pedal?

Yes I know it was you! You drove past the large Tesco....5mins ago! I had just filled up there. Not in my Z of course!

Anti lock light is on. is it because ive not bleed the abs nipples in the boot when i bleed my brakes?

Do you have to ,when bleeding the brake do the abs nips in the boot when your bleeding the brakes or is that one only need doing when your undone somthing to do with the master cylinder .

Hello, I am new here. I own a swb manual with a Vg30DETT... There are a host of problems to solve with this car and don't know the best way of going about it. Is there a specialist I could see who can solve the following issues at a reasonable price? If so, how much would it be? The following problems: - Hicas leak ... I need to top up the reservoir with ATF Castrol Dextron II every 2 weeks or a red warning light comes on (pipe replacement? Seals?). - There is blue smoke coming from what I can only think of as oil drenched / old spark plugs... (Old old sad spark plugs). The boost for turbos are good though. - There is a highly annoying cre…

i am just playing with the idea as i'm going to do something over the winter. i know the cost of rebuilding a zed engine with all the gear to reach around 550-600 bhp with uprated turbos and boost. now after reading many threads on the forum mentioning a v8 conversion i am tempted and was even thinking of getting a soarer as a doner but after a little research i found out its a nightmare to convert to a manual. which v8 do people usually use in a zed as a v8 and a big fook off turbo might be a more suitable option for myself

Does anyone use these? I just popped over to Halfrauds to get a couple but was told they don't sell them. I suspect the likes of B&Q will sell something similar albeit not necessarily suitable for vehicles.
