thinking of having the boost turned up since been to zedworld and given clean bill of health can anyone tell me what this involves and who or where to have it done

A very tidy red zed, which I think was an import on a K plate, coming down the ramp onto level E in the Galleries car park in Bristol Broadmead, heading to the exit. Was a male driver with female passenger, had black multispoke alloys and crystal rear light clusters and a lip spoiler. Looked very smart! I exclaimed to the girl who I was with at the time that I owned one of them, she said that it looked damn sexy. Which, of course, I wholeheartedly agreed with :)

As the title says really, the car has the HICAS lockout bar in place, but I'm not convinced it's definitely adjusted right. Mikey did have it up on ramps to check the tracking, but the Kwik Fit he was working at, at the time, didn't have the 4 wheel alignment stuff, so we kinda had to guess and bodge it as best we could. I've just bought some adjustable top arms for the rear from ZX-TT, and plan to buy the rest of the adjustable suspension bits for both front and rear in the coming months, at which point, it's going to need a full geo setup with the help of lasers. I know the Kwik Fit Mikey is at now has the 4 wheel tracking alignment tools, but I'm doubting it supp…

hi all before i lowerd my zed i could sit on a private road giving it some and the car would feel solid and firm to the road. but sins i lowerd it but it dosent feel right at, it feels like iv got flat tyers and wags. and i mean wags like two lanes of private road wags so where could i find the right geo setings or is it just the same as factory and dose enybody no what those are please

Fitting manual over xmas and after some advice or recommended clutchs, its twin turbo and running about 350 bhp. Looking to do couple of track days at castle combe next year. Prefer not to have stiff pedal.

So for the last few days this has been happening, but only yesterday we realised it's intermittent. We originally noticed that the outside, drivers side tail light bulb was out, but then on the way home from ZedWorld it fixed itself, now today, everytime I brake, my "LIGHTS" warning light comes on, I haven't actually had a chance to check which bulb appears to be out obviously, as I've been driving it, but I did verify when backing into the garage, that there was an increase in red light behind the car when pressing the brake pedal (i.e. not ALL bulbs are out) and the "LIGHTS" light still came on. Any known issues that cause this? Or am I just looking for a dodgy con…

It's actually a Z1 clutch and flywheel combo... My bad Hi all, I need some help. Below is in RPS street max clutch. As you can see it's bust. I want to know what it needs to be back to normal. The disk is an abvious one and has no material left but does the rest of it look fine?

i'm looking to upgrade my turbos and i come across these.. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300ZX-GODSPEED-T28-BOLT-TWIN-TURBO-CHARGER-/180708445312?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a13100c80#shId are these any good? or what turbos i can get for same price range?

What a wicked day yesterday and in a major parts made by you guys and gals because whatever we do it comes to nothing if nobody attends so a big thanks from all at Zedworld to you, and whilst on the back slapping subject I personally would like to thank my “team” the kids first Jamie and Danni for their sterling work ensuring tech question and sales were dealt with and the drinks and food were served to all., and of course Lynda who with her super culinary skills keeping the masses fed. Lynda for JAE 2012 catering eh? ( Vote now !) So some pics for those who were unable to attend, I started at the bottom end of the line of zeds and walked backwards taking a …

Hi people im new here..... on friday i went up to newcastle to buy a generator off a fella to get there and he has a v8 audi and a 300zx swb 2 seater on the drive.... ive always wanted a 300zx but i dont really know their value... this one had been de-turbo'd, fabric interior, needed a new rear passenger wing and some attention to the driver side inner sill.... it had a full stainless exhaust on it... sounded beautiful..! how much do you think a 300zx would be worth in this condition..? Thanks Jono

Hi gals and boys im just wondering can anyone post any pics of 300's with black wheels with a polished lip?? Cheers :whistling:

On behalf of the club, I would like to thank Jeff, Lynda and Jamie for putting on a great bash today!! It was a really good gathering, Lynda (as ever) did a superb job with the catering and the whole day went really well. It was good to meet some old freinds and some new faces too - it's always good to meet everyone in person after many days/months/years of chatting online..... Top job Zedworld..!! Richard:thumbup:

Finally, on my second attempt finished my illuminated centre panel and got it fitted. may not be the best specimen but its on and it works. Got round to doing the fuel pump ecu modulator, wasn't as bad a job as i was expecting, here's what i found on the old one. Top right pin a little black and burned, and the connector in the plug didn't look to healthy either, it still gives a good connection after a clean up though. tested the resistance to one of the other pins so convinced the cable is ok. Took the old ecu apart to see what it looked like inside and to be honest it didn't look that bad, i was expecting a nasty smell and loads of black s…

just gave the car a quick clean and noticed the lights were on, they are switched off. the reverse lights are showing one red on the left and white on the right. when i put the key in the ignition it makes a beeping sound? have had to diconect battery for now to stop it going flat any ideas on this mystery?

After removing the hicas and fitting my eliminator bar, i was checking the rear arm bushes and there knacked. Can these be rmoved and replaced with the arm in situ, or are the bushes a pressed fit? Can new ones be fitted without taking the rear arms off?.

Following my seized caliper issue back in February, I had a replacement fitted (big thanks to JeffTT), but recently I had noticed signs of a warped disc.... .....so I bought a set of Brembo stock replacement discs/pads for £100 all in and dropped the car off at my local garage last week for them to be fitted. However it transpired that the other caliper had now seized too.... So, rather than fanny about with another 2nd hand replacement, I managed to source a fullly reconditioned pair from the re-manufacturer for £300 delivered. With the option to return my old ones for a £50 rebate (I sent them back today....:winkiss:)..... ....and now the whole lot has be…
