Hi Guys, I've looked in FAQ's and done a search but couldnt find any info on what I should expect my un modified 1995 N/A to do to the gallon, not massively important but planning a little road trip over the bank hol weekend and just want to buget the trip. I am planning to drive sensibly :shock: I know my old shorty was pretty good if I was steady but I didnt really have to consider cost back then plus fuel was probably around the 70p per litre Thanks Steve :)

started up the car earlier today only to hear a knocking noise coming from engine,its ok at idle but when turning key to start you can hear knocking and around 3k revs and up you can hear it.its not noticeable when sitting in car but with hood open can be herd plainly.the car is a 96 na with low miles and running on all cylinders and not over heating. not much history on car and haven't it long.i know when i got it i checked it for oil and there was a good bit to much oil in it,did that cause damage i wonder?thanks for any help

as per title, there is a noticeable judder on idle, no smoke or anything and it drives smooth, but when idling its shaking the car, not violently, but enough to notice? just that and a power steering pipe left to sort out for my old man, and he can take ownership of the car once i hear back from the insurance (seem to be taking their time on that one) faulty injector maybe?

Hi guys, yesterday had a pretty heavy session of using my Z32 TT on a private runway for testing purposes for a company, basically I was taking the car at very high speeds and braking hard before the end of the runway and turning around, doing this a few times. well the question is, after a while the brakes felt shit, felt spongey like if there was air in the system, at one point almost went of the runway but luckily the runway was very wide so managed to do a high speed U-Turn(didn't think it was possible lol) anyways, I checked the brakes after they seemed fine, and after I let the car cool off and made my way back home the brakes were fine, so I'm gues…

Hi does anybody have a pneumatic polishing mop that i could beg, borrow , buy or steal please , thanks Sayers

Hi all, Can anyone tell me how /where the outer sill is attached at the top? Is it simply a case of cutting the out sill away / off to get at the middle and inner sill for repair? LOL- Not that there's much left of the outer sill anyway, but just wondered. Cheers :)

If a zed stands out on the drive way for 3-4 years without moving or you driving it. How bad would the rust be?

ok come on then, as per title, whats the best v8 to stick in a zed, im thinking more the LS1 from the old corvette, shame no one sells the bloody engine in the UK, would love to do that, it sounds awesome, and apart from it having corvette all over it, looks fantastic as well

can i convert a uk spec car with side lights an indicators into jap spec but no fogs just air ducts where the uk lights were and can you buy the ducts to do it and the other sidelights that are diff to the uk ones

Washed then polished the zed yesterday, painstakingly working my way round the car, starring with the bumper, finally got it done and stood back to admire my work just to find bird crap all over my bonnet! Got the bucket back out, I swear the bird was sat on the roof laughing at me! Got all finished again!! Then this morning bird s**t again all over my bonnet! Sure it was the same bird! Can I just note that no other car on my street appears to be affected!! P**sed me right off.

Hey folks!! trying to purchase the G2 Brake Caliper Orange set in the US, but since it´s aerosol they won´t ship international..I was wondering if someone knew if this brand is distributed somewhere in the UK? eventhough I LiVE in Spain probably they can ship it. since it´s EU. Here some examples: http://www.stage3motorsports.com/product/G2BCPO/G2-Brake-Caliper-Paint-System---Orange.html http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/accessoryDetail.jsp?ID=41 Any hint please? thanx!

I feel like a poof for even asking but do you reckon 20" wheels is plain silly? They are 19" front and 20" rear bbs lm to be fitted to a family station wagon limousine model lwb. I think 20" is possibly ott as I don't deal class a drugs, own a rap record label or have relations with the Russian mafia?

When and who is going :yes: Personally I am thinking Friday early afternoon :yes:

Just watched the last 20 minutes of one my favourite films. Although iv never noticed it before there is a 300zx at the end of it... Can't believe iv never seen it before!

Im going to have a go at fitting the gauges I bought from Craig However Just had a read through the technical forum, when I click onto any of the links it gives me the unknown error. Could anybody supply me a working link to a how to section fro fitting boost, temp and oil pressure gauges? I want to ensure Im cutting / splicing into the right areas..

Ever since Car.mad told me what my bumper is i've been trying to find a picture of the full kit but for the life of me couldn't find any pictures other than the front bumper. but finally I've come across a site that appears to sell them. http://item.rakuten.co.jp/carshop/10035439/ JDM to bits...

As the title suggests, I want to change it for an L.E.D one. maybe the rear side lights too.

Hey, Can anyone give me an estimate to how much this Zed is worth, how much you'd offer - http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/1991-nissan-300zx-tt/108598730#gallery-item-full-7 I'm not sure, but I'd say somewhere between £700 - £800...

Hi, Im in the process of preping my Zed for big and better things, ive already taken the spoiler off but was wondering how to remove both rear and front bumpers.

Just swapped the rooted motor out of sarahs old ZX, still having an idle problem misses and pops, drops down to 800rpm slutters sometimes down to 500 then picks back up to 1000 and idles perfect for 10 seconds, then does it all over again, i had exact same problem with old motor, the new motor is good goes well just idles like shit, i have swapped the AFM PTU ECU TPS Idle air intake valve. there is a unit next to idle air valve a square diaphram unit linked between the idle valve and centre of the balance pipe, nothing seems to change regardless of this being plugged in or not. what is its purpose? Modifications to drivetrain are HKS pod, single exit 4 inch exhaust 2.5 do…
