Hi guys what's the power switch for on the auto? If you flick it one way a little 'power' light comes on on the dash and flick it the other way and a 'hold' light comes on....what is it and what's it do??

I'm looking to do some research into the spark plugs that people use in their TT Zeds. If you could post up, along with your spec, the make & type of plugs you have used in the past and are using now, plus any other useful info, that would be great :thumbup: Everyone who posts will get a single (1) Haribo at JAE :laugh: CheerZ.

Hi all, does anyone have or know where I can get the user manual for the profec B? I have one in my new zed, its all plumbed in and working but I don't have the faintest idea what its set at or how to use it?? Cheers

Gonna get my car back on the road this year (I hope), not been about much but browsed a bit recently getting back into all things z and just seen this, http://classifieds.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/nissan/300zx/stunning-nissan-300zx-professionally-customised/971273 And am very much in shock :hang:

Hi all finally completed the battery relocation today using 2 resettable breakers instead of fuses for convenience plus deleting the now not needed fuel ecu and running an in line fuse and relay instead. We left the battery cables with some extra length incase I need to fit an normal battery at anytime as a back up.

Seeing as I convert normal stock lights into 99 spec copies and I have now, to further update them started to fit led strip lights inside - I like my own work so I am going to fit the led's into my genuine 99 spec tails. Below you will notice a pic of these in bits and I want to dispel a few myths and state some facts. The outer lenses are no different but the stripe 99 additions are on a clear bit of perspex which is double sided stuck in against the outer (please see post 9 pic, etc) and I can duplicate this almost perfectly by adding lines to the old units, these lenses have all the E markings the same, however there is a line of text and this is on the red p…

Sorry they are portrait and a photo of a bit of paper but you can read them. It is running rich as hell? Dead O2 sensor/s?

Can i ask how you guys get £400 insurance . do have your car in lockups or out in the wilds some were. I live in london and cant get this type of price

Have try ed to sell my Z now for 3 months with know luck. I f it was not for the insurance i keep it. But know one seems to want one . There just don't seem to be the money around now.

Unfortunately all of the 35 degrees were farenheit ones..... but at least it was quite bright So what to do on a day like this... Ahh I know go to the local park :cool3:

Is there any? Went out in mates Import and Matt with silver streak this morning to local car meet, and they asked me how to get there feet warm! I said easy just press the directional button until it shows feet or lower level....so I jumped in the car and found there isn't any, unlike my uk z So can you not change the direction of blower on an import z??

I'm no mechanic as I said before but I would imagine this is a thermostat problem. The car has been running cool for a while, takes a while for the temp guage to move and it only goes about 1/4" way up at best and the heaters are working but not so hot as you would think Anyway last night I took the car for her first proper run since i got her back on the road. On the open road I was only getting the temp guage up to about 1/8th but the car was running fine and we were getting some warmth from the heaters. Leaving our friends house the car eventually warmed up a bit and the heaters started blowing warmish, but coming back up the M6 very late last night out…

Weather permitting I will be going up to Zedworld next Saturday, If you would like me to collect anything for you and bring it back to the Southeast let me know, I live in the Medway area of Kent, I will be traveling up in a Astra so size and weight are a factor. Paul

Can someone confirm that the dirrents inbetween them all is just the eprom chip ? So a na/tt auto Na/tt manual I know u can use auto ecu on manual.. Just wondering if I can socket some na/auto ecu's that then can be used With tt eprom chip Mark

Hi guys how do you remove the door/window trim mouldings? Its the ones at the top of the door that run level with the wing mirrors across the door as I've noticed that my drivers side one has a tear in the rubber that touches the window....hope that makes sense...cheers

Just a little bit of advice with regards to my newly accuired zed , these are the mods Custom single airflow meter and air filters Stainless steel cat replacement pipes Large single intercooler Chipped Electronic boost control and gauge Now does this sound like it could be putting out 400bhp as previous owner stated ? And to be honest i dont know alot about adjusting the boost etc.. and at the minute the boost gauge isnt connected and and i hear that insurance companies dont like it am i best just not using it ? Sorry to sound a **** but im not great with mechanics ;)

Evening all Dont know what to do... An unfortunate change in my personal circumstances has resulted in me having to try and reduce outgoings as much as possible... I don't want to have to sell my Zed already - I know I've only had it about 6 months - but I think needs must... :crying: I'm paying £100 a month to keep it garaged, and then on top of that there will be tax, insurance, petrol costs and all the rest of the usual stuff. It's currently not taxed but was going to re-tax it in March for 6 months. It's a 1993 Manual TT lwb - Jap spec import. Pictures of it and a rough description are in the garage section - there are also a few other parts that I…

Does anyone have any recommendations for a garage near/in Croydon? It's MOT time and Slough (where my old garage was) is a bit far to go just for an MOT... Cheers
