Hi all, I'm still in the process of chasing a problem on my headlights. When following the diagrams how true do you find the colouring for the wires. No matter what I'm doing there are always wires not corresponding to electrical diagrams. I've the copies of diagrams from online manuals but are there any that are coloured or have a bit more clarity. Cheers

Going to do a full flush of the coolant in the next week or so. What is the best antifreeze to use and in what ratio?

The Zed has gone! Exchanged in a piece of horse trading for a new filtration set up for my borehole. Swapped for about £5000 worth of kit. I was trying to be sad but still got the grin from the new daily

i know this has been asked before but i've just had my front number plate bracket refurbed so looking at putting a smaller front plate on (my car is jdm) i've read smaller front plates should have 64mm high lettering. however i've ordered a plate 12x3 which turned up this morning but it only has 55mm high lettering. is this too small? i'm sure i've seen plates that size on imports before.

My 300zx indicators have stopped working, I've had a mobile car electrician have a look. He found all light/bulbs were fine????? Any one ever had this problem or could help point me in the right direction solving this.

Guys Is there a resource anywhere that lists all the led lights required to convert the dash / courtesy / pod lights etc to LED ? There are kits on eBay but none seem Z32 specific. Something to do on these cold winter nights :-) Thanks for any pointers.

Hi everyone. Maybe someone know good diagnostic service for my vg30dett? Do not want go to the service who don't know nothing about this engines. Basically problem is with first cylinder. Probably it misfire. I checked all coil packs, they working, new spak plugs, yesterday I check spark plugs again all looks the same. But when I put them back from exhaust come out white smoke(maybe it was after rain, because I didn't drive for 1 week) When I'm disconnect plug from coil pack, nothing changing.. Other cylinders fine. Compression also low 128psi in all cylinder same compression. So I think maybe problem with ecu.. And maybe there is a point to clean injectors.. Is there…

Hi Guys, I have just purchased the Super ATI Race Damper Crank Pulley. Mine is a UK Twin Turbo and I am trying to source new belts for it. The PAS are the same as standard but states it needs a 4pk975 for AC and 4pk1015 for ALT/WP. As mine is a UK it has slightly different belts to the USA ones, longer I believe. Does anyone know the correct size belts for a UK Twin Turbo with a Super ATI Race Crank Pulley ? I thought 4PK925 is the same across the board for PAS, 4pk965 was UK AC and 4pk1038 was the ALT/WP, so what do I need for mine ? Thanks, Olly.

just a quick one, i'm looking at buying another set of wiper arms specifically to get them powder coated, has anyone done this successfully?

Daaamn?

A quick hour to get a few bits fitted off the shelf. CZP relay cover Stainless steel throttle cover GK Tech fan Zspec Hood bump stops Zspec Z dipstick end Plenty more to fit still as always

Anyone ever had this or know what the problem is likely to be. The blur car has been sat in place for a while. Anyway, started it up and the wipers seem to be stuck on constantly. Switch does speed them up etc, just doesn't seem to stop them. MOT is next week so I need to sort them quickly if possible

A 1989 300zx with a modern twist. It looks ok and maybe the younger generation prefer it. But in my opinion the 89 spec is still the best design when it comes to looks.

I have a roof leak on both sides of my Z at the moment. It used to leak from the window at the main join between the Targa and the body but this seems to be fixed after replacing the Targa rubbers, adjusting them as close to the body as possible and screwing them down there and moulding some black silicone to the body rubber and layering some cling film over it to set against the targa (there was some deformation on the body rubber but I do not fancy spending £300+ for each side of the body rubbers!) It now looks almost as though it is leaking from within the Targa trims and dripping out of the plastic but I pulled one of the tops out last night and removed the trim …

hope you don't mind I post pic of your car mate ?✌️

Hi. I’ve got a full manual kit coming. Do I need a manual ECU as well? Thanks for help Art

Hi Guys I'm having an indecisive moment so need some help. I have some BMW 850 Brembo Calipers (40 and 44mm Pistons) which are in need of a refurb and will cost me about £350 all in as I already have the adaptors, discs and pads. Disc size increases to 345mm which fits behind my current wheels fine. Do I get these refurbed or do I just upgrade to better discs and pads on the standard calipers? Car is used for a bit of country road blasting every now and again so £1000+ kits are a total waste of money. Just want something to give a bit more confidence in the brakes than what is currently on as its by no means confidence inspiring haha Thanks for input Luke

Hi all, Wanting to know the differences Between a UK series 1 TT manual shell And a JDM TT auto series 2. Seatbelts on doors , glass colour I already Get just wondering if there are any other Major differences in the actual shells themselves Thanks all.

Getting the urge to get one again in a couple of months keep looking at them as do miss driveing the zed

It was a recent consensus that prices for these cars were climbing. However keeping an eye on these things there seems to be stuff about cheaper than what was. For example on eBay there’s more than one TT for about 3k, for a running car with an MOT. On Social Media both Mike Feeney from MJP and Simon from Hide and Seat are selling great cars for not a lot, think Simons car is up for £5k! On here there’s a decent UK spec unsold for £4.5k. Interesting to note the amount of cars not for sale via the club... different topic. Maybe the quoted values were a tad optimistic?

I bought 2 recon 40p heads which have Tomei valve springs fitted. I dismantled because I'm getting work done on them, but noticed some of the springs are tipped a different colour. I have 21 that are tipped blue, 2 are tipped red and 1 is red and blue! They look identical in dimension and pitch, but should I be sceptical? I am unable to get knowledge from previous owner...Please advise, thanks.
