hi guys bit of help please when i turn the ignition on and start the car the power light flashes 16 times any ideas why?

Cambelt schedule change is or was from new 60k or 5 years, in the real world they do probably last longer, however when purchasing a new zed that has little or no history the sensible thing to do is to change it anyway and you then have a base to work from. Case in point last week, new owner and despite been advised by the previous owner it had been done and had little mileage on it he decided to get get it done anyway as there was no proof. When the front was stipped down the belt did look from a quick look in good order, but the belt pulleys told a different story, the imprinted material is a mix of belt fibre and general dirt pounded onto the surface of the …

Well what a day I have had and OMG!!!!!! how much I love the zed, I cannot believe I was thinking of selling it. The zed had been pissing me off for some time now. Under any boost it was popping and banging and basically I had no power what so ever, but off boost she was as sweet as a nut, but I was only getting about 9mpg :( This happened ever since the new chip went in and 550injectors. So I was thinking of selling but it looked just so dam good and everything out there looks :xxx: so I was going to pop in the std injectors and be happy again. But then I was like no, I am going to get this fookin thing running right if it kills me. Browsing the net …

have just spent a productive hour and a half removing half a ton of white silicon sealer( not a good look on a black car!!!) from under my drivers side targa,cleaned it all up and lubed the wind deflector thingy so its all nice and free and poured some penertrating oil down the drain hole (figured it would be better than water if hose was disconnected ;) ), and it came out the bottom as it should,just behind the front wheel. did the same on the passenger side (no sealer this time), poured the penetrating oil down, but no sign of it underneath!. i know the drivers side is a pain to do but what about the passenger side???, how easy is it to get to the end of the …

So after about 9 or 10 days to strip it down, the shell was finally ready to go on Friday night. Our local friendly scrap dealer (Lives 2 doors down) was given the task of taking it to the crusher and this morning he picked it up. Rose got a few pics and a couple of videos, here are the pics, the videos will take a little longer as I need to cut them down and upload them to youtube, but they will be coming.

thought it was about time i put a few updated pics up, including my homemade clear rear lights.....what do you think :)

Back in 1991, half way through this, a VERY young Clarkson (A fully confessed Ferrari nut) admits that the Nissan 300zx is a better and faster car than the Ferrari 348B GT and moreover the only reason to buy the 348 instead, is because it's a Ferrari! [YOUTUBE]ukFXf9FwDaM[/YOUTUBE]

Well thats my Christmas present ordered:santa: cant wait for Santa to come:thumbup::hyper:

Just got my Z today after my last one when the engine blow up. It has a arial on the front was told it was for parking, so you know were the corner is. But if it is how's it work can't find a button for it. Or is it a joke

So I know they're Lenso's, but I don't know which model they are. Anyone got a clue? Before anyone says it, yes they are in desperate need of a refurb, Rose will be doing that when we find some spares.
