Big thanks for all the advice recieved on this site for all the little problems on my Zed.Its finally going like a train!!

Just wondered if any of these slicktops are still in the club. http://www.driftworks.com/forum/drift-cars-sale-private-sales/33930-mint-300zx-tt-swb-slicktop-manual-rare.html

In there Sig????????

would it be better to just save for a few months and try and source a nice low mileage tt engine for my car as the engine i have seems to have alot of problems - also does anyone know were i could source a tt auto engine for a uk spec car as i just wanna get an idea of price etc - the turbos are good on my car so i could reuse them but the rest of it i think is on its way out.

To cheap to be any good? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/F1-RACING-FLYWHEEL-LIGHTWEIGHT-NSSAN-300ZX-TWIN-TURBO Has anybody had any one fitted?

can anyone recommend a subtle exhaust that wont compromise power too much? what are the japspeed ones like? its for an NA so will be louder then a TT just finished repairing the zed after the crash, and the first time ever i don't really want to drive it any more. starting to feel really stupid with what sounds like a gang of harleys following me everywhere, its getting looks for the wrong reasons, between that and the Bee-R limiter on it (which my colleagues keep changing to 2,000rpm when im not looking :glare:) its getting a bit of a reputation that needs to change.

Hello guys. So i got a problem, my AVC-R, no matter what boost i set up, max boost its always 0.9 bar. Yesterday i want to test something and i set it up for 1.0 bar, max boost an AVC-R screen was 0.9 bar. So i try set it up at 1.1 bar , short run and.... 0.9 bar on AVC-R max boost screen... I got GT2560R turbos so i think 1.0 bar is not a big problem for them... Anybody know whats wrong? PS. my AVC-R setup is like this - http://z32.wikispaces.com/file/view/TT_Vac_BoostController.png/231588342/TT_Vac_BoostController.png Cheers Konrad

Whilst doing a routine assessment for a new owner last week we came across the wheel and tyre combo below, with a low ride hight and body kit fitted the wheel and tyre that was visable in normal use appeared just fine, in fact the tyre tread was very good. However whilst underneath the car we could see the inside wall was a very different affair, take a look and imagine the outcome of a long sustained motorway journey with this fitted to your zed, makes me shudder! what though makes me absolutely furious is the 12 months MOT that came with the car from 2 weeks earlier.....used car dealers!! and that was the tip of the problems. Worth checking the inner walls of…

on my current zed, as i have no real history, would love to know who owned it at some point and the search function isnt really being helpful as im not sure what to search for? I know it was defiantly on the forum or owned by someone who had subscribed (or maybe they just got the sticker) as there is a faint outline where 300zx.co.uk can been seen under the rear window washer jet. Would just really love to read some old posts about it.

K guys so i changed the spark plugs today was easy and no problems there so decided to take a good look at the car for the first time since ive not been able to since buying her - When i start her up there is like a buzzing noise comming from the back of the car not quite sure what it is but sounds electrical There is water comming out of the exhaust when given some throttle and some white smoke the water does seem a little dark like there is oil in it but it could also just be from the dirst inside the exhaust system as it dont look like oil or smell like it. I thought the water pump was on its way out but i think its the electrical fan that was squeking and …

Whats the deal? I've seen poly ones solid ones etc? some are saying with the solids you need spacer? confused! also do I need to fully remove the subframe to change them? or can I just drop it six inches sort thing? or is dropping it six inches the same as dropping it out completely?

Getting vibration at 40mph. I spent this morning changing the prop shaft over. I got a prop from a member a few weeks ago. I took it to a prop specialist and they put it on there machine and they said it was good and the bearing was good. Put it on the car and still getting vibration at 40. Can anyone suggest what else it could be because its doing my head in.

Probably already asked this but which is it that fits the Zenon front bumper is it the mx6 lights or mx5?

Morning all! Fitted my KYB AGX adjustable shocks and Ebach springs yesterday but have a slight problem with my Rear Tyres grinding on the arche's when going over bumps... It's fine when driving along normally but if i go over a bump in the road you can hear it rubbing the arch as the wheel is trying to go up there.. Now my tyres are 285/35/18 on a 10j rim and are getting on a bit so thinking of maybe changing them to 285/30/18 so they are not as tall and may just help when going over bumps. Was trying to find 275/30/18 on the net but that size doesn't exist and 265/35/18 on a 10j rim the tyres are too stretched on and the wheel rim's have no protection! At the …

Hey Guys, Got a slight issues where the noise comes from the front passenger side wheels. What could be the cause? It only happens when the car is moving slowly after it stops. Its like a creaking of an old suspension kind of sound lol. Mine has standard suspension with aftermarket springs, any fixes for this?
