Been informed you are making some shipping enquiries?

I want to replace the nissan twin turbo decals on the back of the car, where is the best place to get these from please.

Hey just wondering if anyone would post up some pics of there white 300's looking for some ideas for mine Paul

Would I be correct in thinking I would use a tt pulley on a n/a pump........or is there no difference between the pulleys?.

Anyone know where to get them from or are they going to be a dealer part? They only have Z31's on ebay. TIA Mark

Just watching sky channel, home and health. Program called paralised and pregnant, one of the guys on there just drove a nice black zed out his garage and down the rd :) , same program will be on home and health +1 , yes I need to get a life ;)

Hi all, Does anyone know the standard dia of the fuel lines including the hard pipes that run from the tank to the engine bay? Im hoping 8mm but im thinking they are 6mm for some reason. I know the braided pipes leading to my Nismo FPR and the pipes going in and out of my 300 degree fuel rail is 8mm but that seems pointless if the feeds from the tank are smaller. Cheers Dan

well my gearbox is dead my car whines on boost, it looks like a shed and is Hemorrhageing power steering fluid, and now...... my head lights are playing up... right when i turn the sidelights on, the dash doesn't light up, then when i turn the headlights on the dash still doesn't light up but the full beams come on??? the stalk is working i can flash or put the full on, when i put the front fogs on the dash lights up, could this be the pod that's failed? or is there a fuse?

As some of you probably know - i had this shitty 34 error. Mr Baz helped me out and sent me another sensor which i fitted on top of the engine (as advised by TwinTurbo). All looks good - i clear the error, got code 55 and after starting it up got code 34 back again! Maybe it's wiring? How do i check my wires?

Just seen this on ebay - dont know if its anyones on here. Looks fairly tidy... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-300ZX-1989-TT-Manual-/170869721979?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item27c8a10b7b

Well. Just wondering if anyone had ever put p a spec list of ideal parts for certain engine builds.....? You know, like a reliable 400bhp engine build etc....? Just curious :)

Just sorted through the pile of parts that have been gathering for a few months to see what I've actually got and get it loaded for going to the garage tomorrow, calipers still need sanding and another couple of coats of paint. Think I've got everything needed for a good overhaul if summer ever shows up...

Ever since I got my Zed the washer jets keep getting blocked due to stuff in the bottle. The fact I pretty much always use the car in dry weather only and thus don't use the wipers much can't help. Is there any easy way to clean out the bottle without stripping the car down to get to it? Cheers.

gotta love the guys description. http://hartford.craigslist.org/cto/3109768557.html

As above, went to the Retro Show at Santa Pod and had a brilliant morning, sorry I missed Rustysills... Did a couple of runs up the strip to compare my LWB n/a to my old SWB n/a... was expecting mid 16's which is quite respectable for a 17 year old stock n/a and wasnt far out...trouble is I enjoyed it that much I may have the bug again :) Retro Show.PDF

Hi all, New to the world of zx and indeed this forum. I own a z32 1990 tt. I have an electrical issue which has baffled me. Basically when I start the car now, my wipers (front and rear), heating - basically anything on the pod on the left of the steering wheel doesnt work. In addition to that the cigerette lighter doesnt work, nor does the folding mirrors or electrical adjust side mirrors. Also the break light doesnt work when i press the pedal. Although when I have the lights on the first setting break lights do work. I think its an issue with the fuses or the ignition positive wire going to all of these. Any thoughts on how to fix or diagn…

I'm assuming It was Rich from Saltburn. looked quite tidy. have you got any pictures of it?

As promised so sorry its late. car now gone so I could retrieve the exhaust:biggrin:

Print of and place in your window :P

can anyone tell me if the jap aluminium front calipers are a straight swap for the uk steel ones on a tt there are some on here and am interested

Put my zed in for its mot on thursday....not a happy result. Failed on front pads...sorted already (fitted new ones) Drivers half-shaft was loose.....sorted Popping noise coming from the front passenger wheel under heavy breaking. This is the one thats baffling me. The tester said to check the security of all the suspension arms. I did this and didnt find any problems. Just spent the past 6 hours raking my brains but have no idea where to go next! Any suggestions?

I'm trying to establish what upgrades (if any) had been done on the replacement TT engine i need to fit. Garage said they had a pair of T4 turbos that were fitted but going to keep for another project, they believed the engine was producing aro,und the 400hp mark but I will take that with a pinch of salt at the moment. I will fit the standard T25's? from the faulty motor, unless I can find something better, but can any one throw some light on why the T4's would have been chosen and what else may have been changed to work with them (ECU upgrade perhaps) as most discussions online talk of the T28's being the favoured option. Going on Garrets site makes no sen…

Seems when my water pipe split at the back of the engine, it caked the UJ, stripping all the carlube id used on it off, and then seizing it up in one direction, got it off today, and lubed it up again and worked it into the joints, its loosened it a bit but will definitely need replacing. but there ya go, there was me thinking it might be the actual steering rack, well if anyone get a split pipe at the back of the engine above the uj, best check it after
