Will a 680 amp battery be ok? Off the top of my head i think its right Been looking at these.. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ODYSSEY-PC680-LIGHTWEIGHT-DRYCELL-RACING-BATTERY-MOTORCYCLE-BATTERY-NEW-/280936816807?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item416923a0a7 Will this be ok? Dan

Shame the attentions on the girls and not the car, even with the proper photographer still can't make them look any better.

just a quick question. is the central locking supposed to work from both doors? I only ask because went to lock my car yesterday, and the lock broke and spun round further than usual:asshole:. so now can't lock the car from the drivers side. went to lock it from the passenger side (for the first time) and it only locked the passenger side. i will try and fix the drivers lock at the weekend but if the passenger side isn't supposed to lock both doors then i'll leave that well alone.

Basically the same as my other thread http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?163638-Bose-Speeker-Box-s&highlight= But thought i'd change the title, wasn't really to clear on the last one.

Hi all, My next task is to re-locate the battery to the boot has any one got any tips on how to install or where to run the cables? or anyother tips as id rather get it right the first time. Im going to have a bracket made up and thinking of mounting the battery box in the simular location as the ABS unit on the other side of the boot to help with weight distubution. Any help would be great thanks Dan

Desperately require a PAS hose for my 1991 JDM N/A, one that comes down and across. Can anyone tell from pic on ebay whether item http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/380456749703?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D380456749703%26_rdc%3D1 is a hose for a N/A or TT, I did ask the seller who seemed unsure. Your help as ever is appreciated. Regards Ronnie

Jeff and Jamie have worked their magic again.... .....For the first time my blue ZX had actually let me down by dumping coolant on my garage floor whilst parked. The culprit? A dead water-pump!! So one visit to Zedworld today and Jeff fitted a new waterpump - plus a shiney brand new Nissan viscous fan (oh and a new cam-belt just to be safe, since he had the front of the engine off); now all is well again!! Thanks guys; the car is back to its normal happy self once more!!! Richard:clap:

Is it just me whos nearly been sick after looking at this? link removed due to owner being registered not subscribed Apologies if this belongs to anyone on here (I assume not) or if anyone knows it, don't mean to offend but just saw it and thought... ergghhhhhh!

hi, does anyone know where i can get either a whole new speedo assembly or ideally, just the odo and stepper motor? im not trying to clock it back, im sure most ppl will assume i am, but im honestly not, i dont do nearly enough miles to make it worth the effort (i would say that though right?) my speedo stopped counting up miles and after taking it all apart it seems the stepper motor has some problem as the actual miles counter runs freely and smoothly. oh and the speedo and everythinkg else works fine, just it doesnt clock up the mileage. after putting it all back together, my counter is now running backwards somehow :S i bought a new cluster but i…

just seen a zed on the way back from the gym coming from the bus station in andover anyone off here ,,its got 300 decals down the doors

Had new front and rear brake pads fitted on the car about a month ago but just recently the brakes have started to make a clicking noise as I'm slowing down for a corner or to stop. Anyone had this or got any idea what it is? Cars going back the mechanics next week but any advice would be appreciated.

got round to taking my engine out my zed today ,how did it ever fit in there lol only joking its from a tank went to bovington tank museum today worth a look [/img]

as per the title, sitting on a pair for a while as mine will no doubt need doing at some point but could use the cash for other projects (sods law the buggers will blow on mine as soon as I sell!) rough idea on price please ?

So yeah, as recommended by someone in one of my previous post I removed the rear bumper and yes, it wasn't good, although I have to admit I was expecting worse! I don't think anything could surprise me now (perhaps discovering a diseased Roswell alien would, but that would be weird) as every time I remove something I find new horrors. The quest continues however, one way or the other.

I was looking at a Zed on ebay, it was a project the guy is selling. I'm considering buying it, but very unsure, the first obstacle is getting it from Dundee, Scotland back to Newcastle. I looked into hiring a car transporter / trailer on the net. The whole trailer thing has thrown up all kinds of issues I'd never really considered, but now I'm wondering if my dads MX6 (2.5 v6) can safely pull a car transporter / trailer with a Z on it? I'm starting to think its not a good idea, especially as the MX6 is FWD. I'm not even going to ask whether I (or my dad) should have a trailer licence...that was a whole other can of worms. Any advice would b…

hi all today when i started the old girl up, the console unit on the left (with the air con etc on) didnt light up and nothing worked, nor did the wing mirrors ping out... everything else worked, radio, seats, lights, internal clock.. it happened about 8 times in 12 attempts, any idea why this is... (i've recently changed my repeater bulbs, however surely cant be that.... can it!!!) thanks, a slightly concerned and perplaxed Nick

Sorry if this is anyones on here, but Show car? is that a private giggle or something? or did standards drop slightly for shows :lol: if it is someones on here, dont take it personally. ive had the shit ripped out of my old cars before. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1991-H-Nissan-300-ZX-TWIN-TURBO-/170890042864?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item27c9d71df0

Does anyone have a clue which fuse is for the windscreen washers?? The wipers all work fine and the back one works fine, the rear washer also works, just not the front ones. Anyone???

Thought someone was taking the mick when i first saw this on ebay lol http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/300ZX-turbo-Z32-model-1990-96-front-bumper-JDM-special-edition-new-nissan-/280915088212?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4167d81354#ht_4255wt_1111 might be of interest to someone.

These ones I took after some "model" asked if they could get some pictures with the car. but for the life of me I can't find the photo's the actual photographer took. I hope to god they're better than the "models" Please don't think that this is the average calibre of girls in my local Teesside area, there are better...honest :whistling: managed to find this one after searching facebook.

Just got my speaker boxes today from craig (thanks again) although i'm a little puzzled as to the wiring arrangement. embarrassing for an electrician, but in my defense it is for a car. There are two cables (green and orange) with spade connectors, i'm assuming these are the two for my speaker, and then there's is a 4 pin plug. with another pair of green an orange, and also a brown and black. I'm once again assuming that the green and orange would be to connect to my existing speaker cables that return to my headunit. and then the other two must then be a live and neutral for the amplifiers. If I am correct then does that mean I need to run a switched live …

My car has the standard recircs on, is there any benefit to fitting aftermarket bovs such as HKS SSQV`s? Also, is it best to fit 2 or plumb 1 in?? Thanks, Dan

Spotted on Sunday afternoon around 1pm'ish in Little Clacton. Looked pretty standard. I'd just pulled out of my driveway when you gave me a flash/wave.

Which spark plugs everyone is using?

Whilst taking our maud tescos to do a bit of shopping i saw a blue zed scurtle down huddersfield road blacked out windows and two bomber exhausts ( heard the car before spotting )
