Hi, Does anyone know dougal200 or have his contact details? Don't think he has been on the site for a while but I need to talk to him about parts I've paid for. Thanks Dan

has anyone ever made a zx pick up or does anyone know of someone who has. Cheers paul

Just wondering if anyone is heading to Pod this weekend (assuming the weather holds up). Looking forward to tying out the Zed up the strip before the MR2 breaks cover for 2012 :punk:

over the last week done loads to the car but,one thing is niggling me . i've used a manual na 1994 jdm for the donor. everything has gone in fine with no issues. but i hear lots about clutch booster ? there is no booster from what i can see. are they different clutch set ups 94 onwards without the booster.??? can anyone give me any light on this subject? cheers beforehand!

of to birmingham tomo to pick up my z cost just under 900 but gona be well worth it (i hope):biggrin:

hey guys, ive been working my ass off rebuilding a TR7 engine and body restoration aswell, so now ive got about 500, to get my z thru a mot, taxed and insurance deposit payed when i first got her, i put her thru a Mot, but i abandoned it, this is what i know, headlight bulbs needed replacing, ive looked at ebay bulbs, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-90-Osram-NightBreaker-Plus-Xenon-Bulbs-H1-448-Main-Headlight-Light-/290644857374?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3A300+ZX&hash=item43abc8921e im not sure if thats all i need? surely thats not the main beam and the high beam, i took a bulb out and its only got 1 fil…

Picked my daughter up earlier and as soon as she sat in the passenger seat she said "Dad, is your windscreen cracked?".....and bugger me it is!, in the bottom lefthand corner. Rang my insurance and luckily I can get it replaced for a £80 excess, but still a p.i.t.a :(

have a very small prob when ive been running for a while then park up then go back to it maybe half hour and start it it dont run right (uneven) then stalls after about 5 mins then when u start it again all is well anyone any ideas its a tt auto

Would this kit allow me to fit later spec 93- injectors to a 1991 engine? http://www.conceptzperformance.com/Cart/description.php?II=4792&Car_Type=300&UID=2012012011035981.131.156.161

I nearly done conversion fron n/a to tt and now i am thinking is the insurnve will be cheaper n/a import than tt uk model. What insurance groupes they got?

I'll be doing track day as the title suggests on 26th February. Hope the weather will be OK but a bit of rain makes it more exciting sometimes lol. Once again it would be good to see another zed on track :)

hi guys just done the manual conversion 1 week ago and i need a bit of help with few bits ,i am still running with the same ecu i had before which is for an auto but people reckon is ok -what do i need to do with the auto box ecu (just disconnect?) -clutch,i don't have the air reservoir and all other vacuum pipes but i've put an one way valve and it sames to be a bit better (witch way the valve needs to go ???just to make sure i've got it the right way) -now the car sames to be very laggy,turbos kick in at about 4000 rpm with the auto was at 2000 rpm ....4000 rpm is that right? -and also is there anything i need to do with the ecu ???someone said i need to co…

Done the auto diagnostic on the zed and its coming up as shift solenoid A shorted or disconnected.Anyone know where shft solenoid A is located?.any help appreciated, cheers :)

Hey guys just wondering if anybody can give advice on setting up the Z suspension wise. Ride height needs to ideally sit chassis rails 100mm or more from the ground. From there the alignment guys will let me do the tweaks myself, i have got adjustable front and rear traction arms, adjustable front and rear camber, and adjustable rear toe arms (n/a subframe, no hicas), also have rear subframe lock collars. the coilovers are body adjustable BC red's, body adjustable so i can change ride height seperate to the spring pre load. I've read a fair bit of suspension stuff regarding ride height and the effects of having your lower arm mount aligned with the lower ba…

Sometimes with the very best of intentions somethings just seem destined to go wrong. Case in point, a very smokey zed we saw a year ago returned with a very unhappy owner. With the help of a mechanic mate he had removed the engine and removed and replaced the turbo`s with newly refurbished items. During the change over the oil lines were replaced as was the oil and filter, the turbo`s were pre-oiled and the oil lines filled as per the turbo companies instructions, also when all refitted the engine was turned over with the fuel pump fuse removed to prevent starting, this done until oil came out of the turbo oil returns. So all good and now running, howeve…

OK so just started work on the TT engine to drop into my hillclimber done the ERG delete now doing the water bypass, got the stainless manifolds to go on.....anthing else I should do while its on the stand out of the car????? oh and has anyone got a single piece prop SWB manual? and a 1.5 or 2 way diff

well kind of have a look, yank btw

Hi guys, As per the title, it's an imported engine so no chance of finding out through the DVLA. Cheers

How come we dont have any proper monster zeds on here. Ive been on the fiat coupe forum for a few days now and omg every year they just keep getting more and more power out of it, and they seem to be really easy to mod. When i had mine 280hp was the norm and i was running about 350hp which was alot, now it seems to be alot are running around the 450hp and this is the norm and a lot of them doing track days and on stock internals :ohmy: This is a wicked result. its Barbz car and he tuned my coop and he just keeps getting more and more power. Also look how smooth the power is. there are one or 2 now over the 600hp mark. Looking at todays fig…

Is this no good?

I was driving to pick my misses up from her work today and the car decided to miss and losed all power,got it home and the wires from number 2 injector had snapped ,it is amazing how much power it lost just with one injector down,Its all fixed now with help from my trusty soldering iron:punk:
