Right guys, as some of you may recall I have deleted the JDM parking mast from my bumper. I still have the button on the dash though obviously. Soooooo, i've been thinking!! As I mostly listen to music via my ipod/cd and hate the look of the raised aerial. Is it possible to rig this button up to raise/lower the aerial only when needed? i.e. when listening to the radio. As you know i'm a dumbass so it's probably a stupid idea and impossible, but thought i'd ask you clever lot on here. If it is possible surely it is a genius idea :innocent::yinyang: Any help/advice greatly appreciated :thumbup:

....of satisfied Zedworld customers :yes: Just a quick 'Thank You' to the team for looking after me and my Zed. Cheers guys. And the wine from the Zedworld bash is finally chilling in the fridge lol. I thought the posty had enjoyed it :sneaky2: Thanks again guys, and i'll be in touch with regards to the future improvemnts. Daffy.

Hi there all, Going to buying some DriftWorks suspension parts and have a question. Does anyone know if they come with replacement bushes or are the old OEM items reused? I'm getting front and rear camber arms and front tension rods. Cheers, Rob

Hi guys more questions lol, sorry. Replaced rear shocks new nissan, old ones didnt have no gas in them they just pulled up and down. and replaced inner and outter hicas joints, No wonder the car handled like crap,state of joints and shocks. Well its now a differant car handles great hits bumps without throwing car all over the road, But its still not like my last z, it seems really noisy by that i mean road noise and wind noise, Took it out tonight and give it a run on a private road, and anything above 100mph is to be honest horrible all you can hear is wind and road noise,theirs no wind coming in the car you can just hear it, Theirs …

Hello, I'm Rob (New member) :biggrin: I understand that this is mainly a Z32 site, but it seems some of you have or have had a Z31. My problem is: I discovered that the sidelights have been moved to a toggle switch on the dash by a previous owner . This is because the stalk does not put the side-lighs on, just clicks round to headlights. I was willing to live with that until I could get it sorted, but I tried the full-beam, left works, but the right one is out. I checked the fuses and the right light fuse seems to have gone. (this is where it get weird.) I took the RH fuse out and the headlights still work ! I would like to get the stalk wo…

For sending back my car cover mate owe you a drink bud cheers

You will have to exuse me if this is a daft question,My mate has fitted Japspeed adjustable camber arms to the rear of my car,do i have to get the front done aswell or is there adjustment on them.Japspeed seem to do alot of adjustabler bits for front and rear is it all needed.I had wear on inner edges on front and rear tyres and would like to get tracking done.It has Eibach springs and 18"deep dish aloys.

hi all .i was on my way home from work on the a66 near hartburnabout 2 30pm today when i seen a orange 300 zed , great colour and the fisrt zed other than my mate on the road in the north east was it you ???? :clap::thumbup:

I'm treating the zed to a full respray. It is currently black but i'm bored of it now. I want to go for a full colour change. I've been humming and hawwing for a while now and still cant make up my mind. I fancied something like mercedes palladium silver but im worried it may look a bit dull. So... Any pics for inspiration would be great. Doesnt have to be a zed. I dont want 'in your face'. I'm after different but classy. No lambo orange. No yellow. No lime green. No camellion double super sparkle glitter flip. :) Thanks

remember ages ago a guy in swindon was doing Zs think it was called ztech i know its changed hands to another guy i knew but cant find a website or number any more anyone know about him?

hey guys , just wondered if anyone can help me figure out how to power a z electric drivers seat in a old datsun ... i just basically want it to move , am not great with wiring so if someone could explain the easiest way of getting some power to it :) thanks guys

Hi guys, My waterpump has failed couple of times lately, used second hand pump, But it keeps failing since i put a chipped ecu on it (central 20) and im starting to think it could be something to do with the raised rpm limit, Held it in 2nd once and it went to nearly 90mph and not sure exactly has it was a while back but somewhere between 8 and 9,000 rpm, Obviously i aint holding it that far anymore but if your in 1st or sometimes 2nd and you power it up and it spins up, i have noticed before i have had time to let off the revs have raised pretty high, cant really watch revs to see how high more worried about if im still going straight or round in circles l…

Not sure of what the colour number is but, its a JDM black Z and I was wondering if there is a carplan or simlar spray can available for a couple of repairs I have to do. Thanks Steve

Looks like the stock clutch on the shortie' may well be on its way out as it's started slipping recently, so a few questions fellas, if I may: 1. I've got an old spare Exedy twin plate clutch that Marty kindly gave me when he dropped off the shortie', it just needs a new plate/s. Can you buy replacement plates for an Exedy twin plate clutch or do you have to buy a complete clutch package? 2. The Centreforce clutch off my old LWB (which was supposed to be replaced with a new Z1 clutch by a certain garage but we won't go there...) was in good order when it was run on my old zed, if the Exedy isn't an option would it be worth fitting the Centreforce clutch…

Anyone know the part numbers for these?.my last topic heading 'part numbers wanted' was a bit vague! ;)

Im refering to the 2 plugs that sit above the ICV, i assume there something to do with cam sensors does it matter what way round there connected. Ive just put it all back together and it idles spot on. Not tried to drive it yet though. cheers. Mark

Well, just noticed after more than a week I have a turbo timer :lol: I know it's not really recommended, but when I set it, I can't remove the key until the engine has stopped running. Is there anything I can do so that I can remove the key? I don't know if it's been wired in correctly though.

does anybody know whether one of these would fit a z32

hi folks, its been about 3 years since i was last on here. Moved on to other cars and bikes but never sold it. My Z32 has been parked up beside the house for a couple years now and ive been having a rummage through the spares ive collected. I came across a spare socketed turbo ECU i bought on ebay before i got my MINES. when i took the lid off it, its been socketed, but theres a 'sub board' between the EEPROM and the main board socket. The long, narrow chip has had the numbers 'sanded' off for some reason. ive never seen this before. all the others ive seen, the chip is plugged straight into the main boards socket. im wondering what it is about this chip that it…

Hi folks, doe anyone know the part numbers for the pin, plastic roller and the cap that fitted to the windows, as mine rattle like hell and my local nissan dealer aint got a clue!. any help would be appreciated, cheers :)
