Seen you on the Runcorn bridge about half 11 going the opposite way

can you buy led bulbs for your side lights /brake lights that work in that way with two filiments. oh you know what i mean?

I have decided to try to sort out the mess that is my Zed! For the last year or so it has been parked up due to my work commitments and also finances and my general annoyance with it. Parts have ended up all over the place and garages and traders have let me down but were happy to charge for the privilege! I sent one of my rear lights which had fogged up after Zedwizz (Autoresto) had carried out a led conversion back to him to be fixed and have never received it back. Is anyone still in contact with him? I have googled only to find out that the company has been dissolved. The garage I used in Glasgow has rapidly deteriorated and since fitting the 2.5" inter coo…

I have just purchased some front and rear leather seats that were originally from a UK spec 300zx, I have an import, and there are differences that make it a bit difficult to fit/use. Firstly, my original JDM seats have the seat belt clip connected to the seat, the UK spec ones dont (is it as simple as transferring them over?) The passenger UK seat has electric movement, my JDM ones didnt , so the connected appears to be a 3 - pronged connected on the UK seat whereas the male side from the car only has 2 prongs? This is also the same problem with the drivers Any help will be very appreciated Alex

As stated in the title, I did about a 150 mile run today , and (what I assume) is the cat temp light was intermitenley on / off. I did notice that when i got home the armrest was a tad warm which i guess would be just above it. What could be the cause of this? and what could be fixed to sort this out. On other note, i dont know if this is linked or not but performance was very rubbish between about 2.3k - 3k rpm. it seemed to really struggle in 5th in this rev range. Is that linked? or could that be down to the MAF needing to be replaced? Hope someone can shed some light Alex

Seen a nice red Z in Leyton, East London on a K plate I think.

I made an error a while back putting my tubs onto my manifolds before putting them onto the block not realising you can't access a bolt underneath. The pressed steel gasket between manifold-turbo and turbo-elbow has been squashed so do I need to replace them or can I reuse them. The mounting faces were all very clean before clamping them previously

ok ive got home to my extra large tyres and lots of little bits and bobs that i bought whilst i was away.and one of then bits and bobs is a relay for fast flashing led bulbs. now my question is were does it go to replace the origanal ? any pics or guides. cheers.

when I fit my 99 spec bumper what looks best fog lights of the scoops you can buy to replace them what do you think

These look unusual, I haven't seen these before.. are they really rare like the guy says or is it just I haven't noticed any before? I have Ganador mirrors on mine which I really like, and are also pretty scarce I believe, but somone may be interested in these I guess... auction ends tomorrow afternoon http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Jdm-Bomex-Electric-Aero-Mirrors-300ZX-Fairlady-Z32-SUPER-RARE-/331052752892?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4d14481ffc Rich

Opened the lip today bud, all is well. Didn't realise how much flex it actually has, It really is a good quality bit of kit. However it won't be getting fitted for a while now due to other problems, but I can't wait till it's finished. Big thanks again though Mike for sorting it all out. :biggrin: :clap: :thumbup:

Hi mate. Can't find your phone number. Still not received any post with documents. Can you give us a text please bud. Cheers

Whos this then? I spotted your nice white Zed up the drive in Southport? looks nice and clean :)

Just got a call of a mate of mine who has his own scrapyard said someone drove a zed in there to scrap,anyone we know?going have a look in a bit,scrapyards in Birkenhead.

hello how do you think they will fit, or rather can not, and will buy ROTA drift

Happy 1st of the month to every one. :) Ive been looking through suspension upgrades and TBH i am unclear as to what i NEED over want i can put on... i could quiet easily spend £1400 and change everything... i.e Traction Rods Tension Rods Camber Arms Hicas Eliminator Toe Rods Front upper Camber Front and rear adjustable lower arms But my question is this.. as a road going car.. whats worth changing and whats not... not point spending the money if it not going to give me and the way i drive the car any benefit at all. Now Hicas eliminator is def something i would do. so any advise please, that would be great. Thanks …

Just a quick question my chassis/vin does not seem to come up on any of the ranges that ive seen and just wondered if it was me not reading correctly. ive looked on the chart thats been posted and just a bit curious now.

Looks like a 3 day auction, no reserve. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/nissan-300zx-twin-turbo-/121203166495?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item1c38458d1f

Hi guys, anyone know anything about adjusting the front windows so they close tighter against the targa rubber at the top? I'm sure I read you can adjust them, but can't find it. Thanks

I have been looking at a 300zx twin turbo on ebay It has finished now but the guy is after £400 plus delivery He says he has bills for loads of work to the engine and has now broken the car The engine is miles away so no chance of seeing it It has garret turbos and has been removed from the car I am a little sceptical as whether to buy this or not Any help would be appreciated

might be useful for someone the parts alone are worth more than the car http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300ZX-TWIN-TURBO-/181250476692?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item2a335eca94

After going to a mates scrapyard for some wheels for a 323, i got talking about my zed and he said his son had one a while ago that he broke up for parts, but he has another one he doesnt want to break, but doesnt have time for any more, so i said let me talk to him and see if i cant buy it off him. 10 mins later i bought it, a black UK J reg Auto TT with scorpian exhaust, solid sills, alloy wheels, 103,000miles, engine sounds sweet. Got horrible Fiat back lights which will come off, needs a bit of TLC, but perfect for my winter project, aside from the one im driving, project :biggrin: Cant believe i found one so local to me and soooooo cheap :thumbup: Didnt h…

I have Stack A pillar water temp gauge which the previous owner fit and it used the sender on the water pipe, the same one as the stock clocks gauge takes it feed from. The clocks needle sits just a smidging above halfway - perfect I am happy with that. But on the Stack gauge it was up at 205f when fully warm which is 96 celsius - clearly incorrect and I do know down to calibration !!! Not to mention too far along in it's range as I like the needle to sit somewhere in the middle of it's travel. So I experimented and found by fitting a resistor in line it dropped the gauge to 170f which equates to 77c, I don't have a conzult to test but my guess is this isn't too …

what did you do with your power steering cooler? I see the ps hoses from the cooler are hooked up to the HICAS solenoid valve.

I bought a cheap £1.70 module from the far east and I've fit it inline, only takes 30 mins all in to do, just wanted to show you all, not sure if I'll keep or not but with it being only a slit of a light I don't think it's too in your face. I do know you can buy the ones that go solid after a few seconds but this one just keeps flashing and flashing and flashing. FYI....I replaced the 4 x clear stock filament bulbs that are in there with red 5 smd T10 ones a while back :cool3:. [video=youtube_share;mKZOCwVhsaw]
