So here it is folks; what you've all been waiting to see :

Does anyone have a diagram to show pin outs on a 92 UK tt? Or, know which pins the bee r goes in to? Thanks, Dan

I've seen this and it seems almost too good to be true! Anyone got any thoughts or advice for a Zed newbie...?

To cut a long story short I replaced my seized speed sensor a few years ago as pas and speedo stopped working but still didnt work? Now im trying to finally find out why. Its a 92 manual tt . The sensor unit I got from a breakers yard and the cog I got from the states which is blue in colour and has 18 teeth. The thing is I now have the gearbox out and have noticed when I turn the gearbox by hand the sensor doesnt turn? But is touching slightly as it has ware on the center of the blue cog as if its not quite big enough. I have checked the sensor with a drill drill running it and the speedo works fine. What cog should I have as somthing is not right. Or does anyone have a…

Since none of you had the decency to email / text / call me to let me know That you've removed me as a moderator, I'm wondering if you'd give me an explanation on here?

Hello everyone. Ok so my new 300zx arrived home this week, it is a dark blue 4th series manual TT. Really well looked after apart from an idiot who repainted the spoiler by hand in the wrong blue! I am going ot be getting some lowerign springs and eventually coilovers and 18" wheels which will probably be black or split silver and black/matte black. Along with that I was thinking a gloss black spoiler would probably set it off quite nicely. (I may be wrong but worth a shot). Either way I am wondering if there is any advice to the process or any write ups on respraying sometime like this myself? I can get a guy to do it but I would much rather lend my …

I am contemplating replacing all of the O rings on my air conditioning system. Is it possible to do whilst the unit etc is still on the car? I guess there will be issues with access. How many out of ten in terms of difficulty would this likely to be?

Bloody typical :blink: Been driving up and down the A406 for years and spotted nothing Put my car up for sale yesterday and spotted what I think was a H reg UK spec one in Silver this afternoon coming off the Billet roundabout heading towards Edmonton SPOOKY :sneaky2::sneaky2::sneaky2: .

Car sounds lovely mate and you were definitely doing 30 in a 30 limit down osmaston road :rofl:

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone in the Burnley area would be willing to come with me to look at a car...? It's a '98 zed. I have limited knowledge about looking at a mechanically sound car anyway, never mind what I should be looking for on a zed. I'd appreciate any help :-) I'll be looking to come down one Saturday (maybe Sunday) this month. Thanks :-) :thumbup1:

Just fitted my uprated Z1 side mount inter coolers and the question is this: do you guys recommend keeping the original air flow ducts attached or bin them:blink: I have a 99 spec front end so have pretty large inter cooling apertures! I have just fitted them and re-fitted these ducts but sat here thinking is hat the correct thing to have done! Must add they fit like a glove...........well impressed:biggrin:

Guys and Gals Just wanted to see what the general consensus was around brake pedal feel and progression in their zeds To start, im still running stock calipers rebuilt with new pistons, seals, sliders etc, HEL lines, DBA 4000 discs and DS2500 pads all round. Im 99.9% sure my system is air free and im running DOT 5.1 fluid thats less than 12 months old. I do have big brake kit almost ready to go, but im sure this "issue" isnt caliper related. Ok, so as much as im happy with the performance of the stock brakes (although ill freely admit they dont have the out right power that i now feel i need due to my substantial increase in power) in that they VERY rarely …

Work on my long tern restoration has stepped up a gear with all rust removed from the floor/sills/arches and a fresh coat of paint on the underside. this is with one exception the rear panel behind the pasanger rear wheel. this has has a bump at some point and has rusted badly. Rather than repair (which i could do) i am hoping to cut out these out of a breaker and make the repair as good as new. so does anyone have a swb shell kicking around, i found a breaker on ebay but it would seem that the one bit i want is the reason the car has been written off, which to say the least is anoying. Im willing to travel, all i will need is a plug socket near by. Ob…

Hi Just wondered if anyone has used these guy's as they are offering some parts at cheap prices for OEM parts.... Just got a quote for £30.44 +P&P for front n/s scuttle panel NEW.....Might try entire panel at that price..... Been after floor pan plugs and they have quoted £12.84 for all of them delivered..... Just waiting to find out delivery price on scuttle panel before ordering and they take paypal....... Might order floor plugs first to test how quick they send items and if they are legitimate...

Tonight 02/07/13, about 20:50. It was coming across the Findus roundabout. Only caught a glimpse, haven't seen one in a while. I think they were late spec rear clusters. J spec. I was in my Galant, heading towards Four Lane Ends.

Today i went and had my zed four wheel alignment checked because im suffering from positive camber on my rear left feel. The inner tread is wearing while the rest of the tyre is ok. This is a problem because they are 19 inch and ain't cheap. The result was that all wheel's are slightly out except the one that has the wear. What else could cause this. I have not lowered ar put any HICAS bar on etc its basic with 19's on. Any ideas?? Cheers
