Hi there buddy, I've heard your running Godspeed SMIC's, how are you finding them. I've read on the USA site there is dramas getting them to fit the standard bumper, especially the indicators/fog lights. Cheers mate, Rob

Moneys getting a little tight so might have to start selling off a few bits from the zed, Ive got a set of K-sport front brakes, not sure which size disks ill check tomorrow, but got the 8 pot calipers in excellent condition, What would be a good price to let these go for?? cheers Craig

hi has anyone got a guide to removing the plenum/inlet maifold off my 300 want to clean up all those groggy connectors to the injectors cheers

Just wondered if anyone on here has bought a turbo referb kit on ebay(if good or bad) or is there any other turbos i could buy that would fit straight on with out changhing the engine to much.Any info would be appreciated.

Apart from the front of the prop shaft and the torque converter (as the splines are different sizes) can it be done? My main concern would be vibration from the prop with having to join a N/A rear to the TT front.

Well after nearly making it home from D2 to have a check on how my cars doing we were soon heading back, but this time on the back of low loader :( After a bang and a load of smoke we pulled over on the A13 to find oil everywhere, including the guy behinds windscreen :whistling: After returning to D2 a little look underneath revealed that a certain con-rod has made a voilent bid for freedom! Another engine it is!

Evening all, I could do with some help to find out where this particular pipe should go, at the moment it is dangling! http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff514/300zx_tt/IMAG0190x.jpg Pic taken from the drivers side wing,I put an arrow on the hose that isn't connected to anything, I had a look around and it isn't apparent where it might go. It is losing some sort of fluid though. It is connected to a block which has a few other hoses connected to it - but I don't know what the block is for. Car is an auto tt. Thanks in advance!

I've just spent most of the day patching a large hole in my fuel tank filler pipe using Quick Steel. I then got rid of all the rust that I could, then I coated the thing in 3 coats of Hammerite. The place where the guard was meant to attach to has disintegrated, so I haven't been able to put that back on. When I pulled the guard off there was half a field of soil behind it for some reason. I suppose a good job done, but I can think of more fun things to do on a Saturday!

Was going to paint the roof sections but rubbed it down and did this instead,now got to do the rear section. Also got my crytal lights so they had to go in!:w00t: Took some fettling to fit tho'........:wacko:

anybody know where i can buy the door trim panel which fixes on the outside of the rear of the doors in the B pillar area,

Hi everyone, Not really posted anything of my zed yet so before the long slog of work begins i thought i'd take some pics so when u all get a chance to see her you can see how far she's come. Low milage but a bit tatty when i bought her, cheap enought to take on though. So far timing belt 100k kit, upgraded the ptu, ironed out a little list of fault codes, replaced missing trim, replaced some pannels and sprayed roof, brakes too. MOT monday, i'm sure there will b something else they tell me about but hopefully not much, they also replacing the centre bearing and exhaust for me befor i tackle the rest. I'll update with more photos as i go but i want this…

As per a previous post I thought the new Z was a little slow but the boost gauge doesn't work and sits at -14 all the time. Fitted an aftermarket gauge this weekend and took it for a spin. The gauge only reads 0.4 bar so not full boost. I've had the car on conzult a few weeks ago and there were no error codes, are we talking a boost leak here? On a plus note fitted the stereo so at least I have some tunes in the car :walkman:

as above, can you let me know where to get one from. doing a dett sensor bypass as i have an EBC. and keep getting code 34's.

Which spark plugs do you have/recommend for NA Z32's? Reckon I will change mine shortly but not sure whats in her at present nor what to fit. Also any recommendations for oil filter and oil type?

hey guys, i know this has been discussed before, but can anyone tell me the make and model of baby seat that will fit in the front of my lwb uk with leathers? its getitng abit depressing that i cant take him out in the car, the baby is a lady magnet on his own lol, but combined with a zed ill be irresistible LOL!

Anyone know where i can buy the trim between the window and the door for less than £68 per side, as mine are starting to show the metal strip and looks a bit dated.

.... when I took my rear bumper off! :death: Also, this is what has happened to the metal bars that go all the way round the bumper under the top rim to hold it to the car! So, in order to put my bumper back on properly, has anyone got the big bar accross the back spare? And does anyone have these rails/bars to actually attach the bumper to the car?

My mate has borrowed a Snap-On visual inspection device from his work and left it with me for the weekend! :rockon: I am checking the internal condition of my TT engine before it goes into my car, it had an intermittant misfire before so wanted to make sure nothing major was wrong. The back two spark plugs weren't very tight at all, and I need to compare the plugs to charts I've seen before to identify any wear. When using this borescope, what sort of things am I looking for? I also have this spare engine sat in the garage that is apparently 'forged' - what markings/writing do the standard pistons have on the top and what sort of thing would an uprated one …

I would just like to say thank you to Daz for the TT bumper he gave to me, and for his hospitality whilst we were at his house to pick it up. Daz, your 300's are a credit to you buddy, stunning mate, Yvonne and I spoke of nothing else on the way home, she is well impressed mate, sorry she talks so much though!!! Thanks again mate, a real credit to the Forum.

My boss asked if he could use my zed to take someone in his family to a wedding which i said ok to as he is a slow and sensiable driver. That was at 10 o'clock this morning and he has been using it most of the day! :lol: Think he may be looking to buy one soon!!! power of the zed! :bow:

are there any free mods you can do to the Z for a few extra horses? i know theres a few on evos, scoobies and the gt4 and vr4 so was just wondering??
