My engine has started to run unevenly on idle, checked all known problematic connections all seem good, but I did disconnect the maf when the engine was running and it stalled, is it suppose to do that? I have got a Datascan lead coming and will post up any readings I get, does anyone know the settings you should see from Datascan and Conzult when the engine is at idle. cheers for any help Paul

Last time I overheard someone talking about my Z was when I had the multicoloured red one with shitty 17" work equips and tbh it didnt look too great. three young lads rode past and I heard one say "that looks shit" :2guns::laugh: anyway today I pulled up at some lights in town, and to my left were a few guys on those mountain bikes with no seats, they were early 20s. When I cottoned on to what they were saying, the first thing I heard was "they're all autos aren't they?" and his mate replied "no, but they are like rocking horse shit with manual boxes, especially the turbos!" the first lad then said "I've never seen a black one before, it looks f&%%£n awesome!" …

Hey, Ok, long story short I can't use regular car baffles on my exhaust, they're all too large! Motorbike baffles will fit though. My exhaust exit is 2", but inside a 'false' larger exit. Another problem is mounting them. Normally they attach by a screw fixed through a hole drilled into the exhaust. However, my true exit goes directly into the main box of the exhaust, so fixing it through a hole isn't an option, I'm thinking about constructing a bracket to hold it as well as using Quicksteel. I guess my question is, is there any reason why Motorbike baffles wont work, reduce the Db? I have a bit of a DIY exhaust system, so just swapping back bo…

this subject has been covered I know but finally got round to doing mine after changing from carputer to this kenwood system what ya think??

Not because I'm a pussy... The exhaust keeps hitting cats eyes! :w00t::sweatdrop: Time to raise the suspension do you think?! :shifty:

Am I right in saying that the loom connectors for the IACV, IAA and the Air regulator are colour coded? i.e. AAC yellow, IACV light grey and air reg Black Just making sure :)

Parked on West Carriage Drive at about 3:15 this afternoon . Deep front spoiler , large rear spoiler , red centre caps on the wheels .

as above he used to have a zed so maybe someone knows him

Spotted an M reg silver with series 4 spoiler whilst driving back towards Dorchester Think it was M376 ?TT. about 12ish looked nice and tidy. I waved but didnt get a response, i was in a white nissan micra (girlfriends)

Does the stereo remote lead on the built in ISO lead, carry a voltage to turn things on like the amp? Reason i ask, im trying to tidy up the boot area, the speaker cables / earth and live wires have been wired in nicely, but the remote feed for my amps is being taken from a laptop incar charger that plugs into the lighter socket, im trying to eliminate the incar charger to go direct to the iso lead if possible. as i have plans for my astray which is going.

http://www.zcentre.co.uk/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.pbv.tpl&product_id=297&category_id=80&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=7 Thinking of trying it in black on my motor. IF (and a big one at that) i do go down that route, it will be black with black roof bars, followed on with my black 99spec rear spoiler. But will keep my blue bonnet just incase i hate it lol Just want to know if anyone or you know of anyone on here with the bonnet already fitted so i can have a look, preferably already painted, as cant quite get a feel for it with the zcenter pictures.

what bumper is this please anyone, its totally impractical as sits bout 2 inches from ground. will be removing asap

Watched you nice time m8 plus got a video of it Mark

Hi, maybe a silly and straight forward question but until I have done something for the first time i am always a little trepidatious. I want to remove the power steering reservoir to paint it black, when putting it back is it simply haynes style and the reverse of removal and what do I do to avoid getting air in the power steering system? I'm sure that part is inevitable so how do I go about bleeding the system? I don't know why but doing anything on a zed even routine seems like it should be infinitely more complex ha

deleted all the hicas system aswell as aiv egr aircon etc but I'm still trying to work out is it possible to use an na powersteering pump un modified or is it best just to blank off the hicas pipes on the tt pump? Any help Cheers Craig

After watching the new top gear I checked out site they mentioned. http://howmanyleft.co.uk/?q=nissan+300zx Was surprised to see how few 1990 2+2 autos are on the road and not sworn.

Can some one please tell me how the heck to change the number plate bulbs? I've looked and looked! Sure its mega easy but its got me stumped!:blushing:

Morning everyone, I changed the 16's my swb came with for the 18's I got from Del. Problem is I now have the steering pulling to the left and the steering wheel is no longer aligned when heading straight. Do I just need to take it in to get the alignment done or have I somehow screwed something up. Cheers Martin.
