Hi, Has anyone here had their dash covered? Cheers Vijay

Dont know if anyone has seen this yet, but thought it may be of interest if you are looking to replace tyres in the near future. Have'nt had any more info off our supplier yet. Tyre specialist Falken has announced UK availability for its strongest and quietest high-performance tyre yet, the Azenis FK453. A replacement for the Japanese firm's FK452, the FK453 will for the first time be available in a Y speed rating model for use at speeds of up to 186mph as well as in 62 different sizes in the 25 to 50 series including a 20in version designed to fit sports and performance cars including the Volkswagen Golf GTI, BMW 1 Series M Coupe, Porsche 911 and Audi RS5. …

Hi Guys, I seem to remember someone mentioning that their mate was an upholsterer and was really good, I need some Recaro zed seats (just 2) covering in leather and I`m getting some silly prices at the moment, if he`s good and up for it i would like some kind-a price, CheerZ Daz.

This is a call for help to anyone in the Ayrshire area that's got a blow torch. I undertook a Hicas bypass and the ball joints are totally stuck. Been whacking it with a hammer for hours and it's barely moved a mm. Anyone local who has or knows of someone who can help heat this fooker up would be great. Cheers Lee

Passed u this morning in my red zed , was it anyone I'm here? Rich

Well it turns our my furry green injector connections have been my problem and this morning i actually finished getting the putting it back together. It drives again now. No more hesitation it now actually boosts fully without feeling like its running out of fuel. Still a slight air leak problem to find but at least now it goes and goes well :w00t:

My Zed is finally back on the road and ready for the summer! See this ,this and this for background... Long story short Zedworld have fitted a new engine and my Zed is running better than it has in a very long time and will hopefully be good for a long time yet! Top work from Jeff and Jamie; They kept me in the loop about what options were available and I always got the feeling they were trying to help me get my car back on the road rather than sell me a new engine! Overall I'm very pleased with the outcome. Obviously I'd rather not have any of this happen in the first place but I knew the reality before I bought the car and went in eyes wide open... Anyway, br…

As the title suggests, does one type of plenum fit all models? jap, uk, TT, Na, Manual, Auto, LWB, SWB?

can an air leak cause consult to flag up an 02 sensor? borrowed consult off work and driving along it falgs up intermitently with a 02 error (S1?) checked the wires and conectors all good, i know i've got a few major leaks as z1 didn't deliver ,my silcon in time so its got the old craked pipes on at the mo... any one got any thought?

My Garage have searched everwhere for this part which they cannot locate except from Nissan I won't tell you the price!!!!!!! Does any one know ( I haven't seen the part) can you press out the bushes and replace them. Thanks for anyone who can assist. Brian:surrender::surrender:

The horn on my black shorty has been bodged so just trying to sort it. Where does the circuit wires run as at current im getting nothing down at the horns and the yellow wire going into the steering wheel has nothing either. A bit of help on tracing the path would be nice if someone knows the circuit :) Cheers Marty

seeing as the UK zeds were stopped in late 94, im trying to see has the latest UK zed, ive compared mine to Sonic's chassis number and there is about 150 difference. what i want to see is the chassis number, not the whole thing but the last 5 digits Mine is registered 5/8/94 geniuine Uk manual zed, vin starting in Jn ending in 0010948 anyone else newer on a UK spec zed, stu

It only started yesterday, at about 2k-2.5k revs i get a big flat spot/holding back effect, almost like fuel starvation. Over 2.5k and under 2k revs its fine. Before i rig up datascan has anyone had a similar experience? i might even have a fault on injector 1, which may just be the plug/loom to that injector, which is affecting the revs. Idles a little lumpy and getting smoke when i boot it. All seem to be linked to a dodgy maf as a wrong air reading will also cause the above, so might be looking for another maf, but seriously thinking about a brand new one as im on my second maf in 5years. Cheers

my old JUN AUTO front bumper is on ebay for sale item no:200770158736 very rare from what i was told on here a while back could be a bargain for someone! :thumbup1: JUN AUTO FRONT BUMPER dan.

Just a quick thank you,cars running like a dream. To be honest if you guys were not there to sort these cars out, i would probably get shot of mine as in the wrong hands these cars could be a money pit. CHEERS.

bought some brand new belts for my zed once id fitted the AMS pulleys, and have just realized they are now the wrong size...?? does anyone know which belts i need? (only pas and water pump belts)

Ok, guys with custom builds is it a necessary thing to monitor? Assuming if it is, then do you need 2 gauges 1 for each bank? seem like the dash could get a bit cramped, already have Oil pressure, Ol Temp, Boost ....looking at adding AFR, Temp and maybe EGT :blink: advice appreciated

Having a few issues latley. Here are the problems Engine refuses to boost above 3-4000rpm. Started to show knock sensor error engines misfires once taken upto 4000rpm. Temp gets high 99° but then goes back to 80° Fitted a 1mega ohm 2watt resistor in place of knock sensor. Replacing knock sensor isnt a option as im not stripping it all down again. Done a sniffer test and headgasket is fine. stop car and restart it and the misfire dissapears. Any ideas please?

Hi, Are there anyone around London who knows about 300zx engines a bit? I have quite a few questions and maybe someone is willing to help with answers? Transport costs, etc - on me. Also maybe someone's got Conzult?

Just took both Zeds for an MOT today and blimey they both passed What's amazing is the Z31 which was in a garage since 2001 when straight through the test with no advisories :clap: Bloody amazing !! So done for yet another year Happy bloody days :thumbup: Will be bringing both to SantaPod next week now but on a different stand I'm afraid as im with a local group but still in Zone 4 near you guys .

After 2 days of hard graft my plenum is now shiny.........and ive got no fingerprints left!, lol. Pretty much all done by hand as well! :)

Guys, Conzult shows its restricted via the ECU to 120. Is there any way of lifting this via the Conzult or some re-set jiggery pokery or do i need to chip it? Before all the jibes start, the next step is Manual Conversion as my main Z (of 10 years this year!) is a UK TT manual, so i know the best route/options, but wondering if i can do anything on the ECU myself? If not whats the best route/supplier for a chip and/or piggy back for uprated one? Any help much appreciated. TubZ

Hi guys, Silly question but are the Airflow meters the same for a turbo and non turbo Thanx Ade :thumbup1:
