I know i asked this question before - but only repeating it as i never had response. I did all as per diagram below plus i have removed AIV and PRVR's. For now i will keep manual boost controller and at later stage add electronic one - diagram shows both of them connected in digram - is that how it should be or i have choice one or the other? Thank you in advance guys! Also - how many are here with deleted PRVR's? Any difference?

Can some tell me why my import has -7 to +7 on the boost gauge instead of 14 ?

i cant find any strosek body kits,is it not made by anyone anymore? strosek for loads of other cars but not the zed:no::no::no::no::no:

Probably the worst bodge/instant fix I have ever done..........:blink: BUT it has transformed a poorly revving stalling engine back to its former glory. Now purring like a kitten and All clear on the fault codes.:thumbup1: Nobody will ever know:ninja: You can laugh etc...

As title - I saw a blue zx (an unusual blue) with a white roof and big rear spoiler on the M4 heading east on Sunday afternoon about 2.30-ish.... ......between Chippenham and Hungerford at various intervals - I passed you in Wiltshire in my own ZX and only caught the occasional glimpse of you thereafter (mainly in my rear view mirror.....) I think it was a J-plate import with the letters "JWT" on the numberplate; anyone here? Richard:thumbup1:

Hello, I live in worthing, west sussex I have a zed and I want to get it tuned up! Does anyone know of the nearest 300zx tuning specialist to me who knows what they are doing

This is a long read, so get a drink and get comfy! lol Just wanted peoples opinions on what's to be expected by a "specialist" 300ZX garage these days. The story................. After 5 years of having so called bodyshops (not the guys at Custom Exotics who have been the only people I've met who have pride in their work), I decided to make one last attempt at getting my Z back on the road or it would be broken/scrapped. Before getting it back into the guys at Custom Exotics to have some panels sorted and let the interior trimmer do his bit, I decided to make sure it was mechanically and structurally sound. There's not that many garages that I thought I could tr…

When the car was auto i always seemed to get 19 mpg. After the conversion i thought id see if there was any difference. Results: I now get 22mpg. Every little helps :laugh:

how do you get the pulley off the alternator? and the crank? got the pas one off and the water pump one, but have just broken my alternator fighting the pulley. (see items wanted urgent section) and what size is the crank nut? i dont have a tool big enough lol.

Hi All, My 300 has failed it's MOT on emissions. The reading is fine for about 10 secs but then it goes through the roof. The MOT tech has suggested lamda sensors faulty. The car does sit in the garage all winter so it may have had a bit of damp in there. Does his suggestion sound OK? Any idea who sells them? Cheers in advance. CT.

after reading crash courses how do you do it thread just now, after loosing lots of skin and blood on a zed engine, i have lost tools, that just seem to fall down the sides of the engine never to be seen again. to my memory so far ive lost , 2 x 14mm sockets, a 10mm socket, a small stubby screwdriver, a couple of stanley blades, a det sensor connector and the small plastic black screw from the top of the radiator. they have fallen and been lost down the sides never to be seen again, i can see one of the 14mm sockets, stuck above the turbos but below the manifold. But i have also found a 10mm snap on spanner and a spark plug both under the lower plenium, plus a pair o…

In the three and a half years that I've owned my Zed, I've only had to work in the engine bay a couple of times (compression check, IACV and various connectors). Tonight I thought that I'd remove the timing belt cover on the CAS side (to inspect the timing belt).......good gods! how many bolts hold that thing on? I've got skinny arms but even so - there's so many sharp bits of plastic and metal in the way.....and I must have dropped every tool I used onto the engine tray :blush: I know it's probably a trivial job but I've given up for the night, I'll try again tomorrow after work :hammer:

Hey mate looks like your subs ran out so cant pm you, could you let me know when the wheel arrives please, its just ive had probs with 2 deliveries today through parcels2go due to a courier hub delay and id like to make sure all my parts arrive in good time. Thanks Craig

These must be the nicest standered wheels I have seen for sale :thumbup1:They have come from Japan so they dont have the wide UK rears but they look so good and love the tyres also. What do you think guys would you have them on your zed? I would. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-300zx-set-alloy-wheels-16-inch-Fully-chromed-Bridgestone-Potenza-/261033259991?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Rims_Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item3cc6cb73d7

I wasn't there, but my friend took a couple of pics;

Finally got it all in yesterday, ended up with a few left over screws but all in all not too bad at all. First time its had a wash with the refurbed rims on, could of done with taking some better pictures but they'll do for now.
