red 300 just between skelton and guisborough this morning was it you

I know you lot like stupid guessing games, so while I travel around south UK in the zed, see if you can guess where I am each day, rep for the winner,lol

Nice looking car. Take it you'd been to Crail. I beeped you but I was driving a VW Sharan. :(

I'm still trying to get to the bottom of why my NA isn't starting. I have got to the stage of checking power and function of relays and took some relays out of my TT to try, but on my NA instead of an EGI green relay, it has a bank of 3 fuses? The fuse box didnt come with a cover so I can only check my TT one, I wondered if this was correct or if someone has been swapping things around hoping that I'll never be able to get it to run again lol :blink: This picture shows the EGI green relay and its position, but as I say this isn't on my NA its just a block with 3 fuses in.

Sorry if this question sounds stupid, it probably is, and is more than likely the simplest answer ever. But I want to be sure! OK, as most of you know, Im desperately seeking a new exhaust. My Car is a 1990 2+2 Auto Turbo. What exhaust do I need exactly. Some say pre-cat only, whats that? I know I need a LWB exhaust. But is there actually other differences I need to take into account? Like I said probably a stupid question, but better safe than sorry before parting with cash.

Unfortunately only four zeds there, but still worth a few pics.

as above are these the same ones and what adaptor bracket did you need if any http://www.ebay.com/itm/380445613056?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 thanks

Hi All, I've recently purchased a Japspeed radiator for my NA, I've seen that the bottom radiator mounting points are different between TT and NA and that I need a conversion bracket to mount the radiator. I know Z1 and Concept Z performance both sell them, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a UK supplier? Cheers Pete

Has anyone from here ever used these http://www.floc-king.co.uk/contacts.shtml Had my interior 5 weeks and they've not even looked at it let alone started it was told it would only take 2days every time I get intouch he says I'll look tomorrow. Never known a company like it

Ok some weeks back ( 3 months!!!!) my autobox which has served me faultlessly for 10 years suddenly developed the usual signs of failure. With a manual conversion sitting on the shelf I could have dropped ito straight in but with our normal busy workshop taking 99% of my time I thought it would be nice to use the main parts from the kit but with all new parts that wear out. So I took the time to put together new hydraulic slave and master cylinders, new clutch, flywheel, new one piece propshaft, remapped a manual ecu to suit my requirements, new lower and upper rubber gaitors, new upper leather gaitors, new gearshift bushes, new pedal rubbers, new peddle shaft…

I took my clutch off last night and found it to be a twin plate OS Giken item, nice! I've seen these highly rated by alot of people on here so im hoping someone will be able to tell me which model it is exactly? The only digits i've found on it are in the second photo but on the OS Giken site they relate to several different clutches. The end pictures are the friction plates, they look thin to me, what do you think? Can these be resurfaced or do I need to buy new plates? First time i've seen inside a clutch like this and im not familiar with all the parts. I've written what I think some parts are under the picture but if you can put the number and what they actu…

My new suspension controller now fitted and working great! At the push of a button I can stiffen up the Teins and chuck it into bends then come out and cruise :scooter: Just though I would show off a bit... Worthwile investment though, love it.

At the moment I'm busy trying to sort my leaking heater matrix out (hoping its not the valve) and whilst I'm at it sort the issue with the vents, it would only blow to windscreen not footwell. Does anyone know when this motor is supposed to operate? I have it out and in bits, sometimes it does something but not very much. I've plugged the climate controller back in and swapped between auto and windscreen and still nothing happens. The motor does work though, just not doing what I'd expect. Cheers

hi is it poss toconvert the radio surround from single to double din fitting have seen a rather nice stereo that i fancy

just a few pics before it pissed down again , but where am i ? :shifty:

Hi All. So after installing the new faces on my clocks(from ZX-TT) I re-built the clocks, surrounding area and switches. Put the negative lead back on the battery and got a 'bong-bong'.. I had accidently thumbed the fog light switch and the door was open.. no drama there. If anything - that was a good sign. so I need power for these new faces and got it from the power to the lights splicing into the wires behind switch gear. No drama here either. It worked well.. I had Bright green faces or Bright Blue when I turned the lights on.. had a bit of a play..:biggrin: very happy.. :blink:Then something changed. Minutes later. I now have full-beam and only ful…

Nice zed mate I was just taking mine for a short run :ninja:

J299 has the Bailiey blow off valves fitted down by the intercoolers, where as I notice a lot of valves on other cars are fitted close to the turbo Plenum outlet areas. Is there a performance advantage to either location?

Can anyone tell me the correct settings with regards to the tow in/tow out for the rear wheels please? (UK 1992 TT with HICAS) (LWB) I am just about to have a play with my TRAKRITE plate gadget and try and set the tracking.

Had these of Gonzo12c, need a little refurb but in the meantime I'm well chuffed :) Cheers Marty and big thanks to Baz for keeping them for me..

Ive heard that no.6 injector can suffer from low fuel pressure due to being the last one on the rail and furthest from the fuel feed inlet.......and was wondering if there is any advantage to blocking the the original fuel inlet on the rail and introducing a tee-piece into the hose that joins the two sides of the rail at the front, so theoritically both sides of the rail are feed from a central point and the pressure should be fairly equal on both sides........discuss :)

Ok, I am toying with the idea of removing the a/c from my zed. I am looking to remove as much as possible from the engine to make it less busy and a bit more presentable. Now how much of a difference is there between having it and not? ( in terms of components in the bay? ). I really enjoy having air con on my daily, but i reckon i can live without it on the zed. After all if it's hot then i can just whip off the targa's. Also another contribuing indecision on removing it is the fact that my zed has only done 48k, and i don't plan on putting mega miles on it. So would removing the air con have a massive effect on value? Cheers in advance

Just wondering if anyone has fit another car calipers that will fit the zed with mods.???? Ive got the skylines bremos off 350z is there any other which i can get on my zed ??ty jay

Ive ran out of ideas and just not sure what would suit the car now! Im wondering if you guys have any ideas? Would like to carry on with the Carbon theme but that makes the search even harder..I dont really want a massive spoiler but not afraid of trying something different. In need of some inspiration as ive over thinked this and fried my brain. Ideas?......Thanks Dan
