I'm aware that if i change the centre bearing i need to mark up to make sure that on re assemblty the whole thing is still balanced...but if i change both, prop and bearing does that mean i'm gonna have to take it down my garage to have it balanced? I'm just wondering for the ease of the whole job, i'm not sure if my prop needs replacing but if it does i'd rather do whole lot at same time (i already have exhaust, cats, drift bar to do at same time) but if i need to get it balanced this will throw a spanner into things. Cheers for any advice

I've searched the forum and did find a thread about this, but then it went off topic about a V8 Capri without really answering the question... lol :lol: I've looked at the engine diagram (http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showpost.php?p=207420&postcount=1) but no hope there.

Ok, I had noticed a slight random misfire at idle...but wasn't overly concerned, not yet. However, a few times now from starting the engine (only noticed when hot so far), when I pull away the engine misses badly, only firing on 5 cylinders I think. This only lasts about 20 seconds, then its fine (though the random misfire at idle remains). This is starting to annoy me and I'm worried a bigger problem looms. I hate misfiring over all car problems. I've just looked at the coil connections, they look ok. I haven't pulled plugs yet. This the first car where I've had individual coil packs for each plug, so this is new to me. Are these symptoms fam…

iv seen one here somewhere and cant find it now, im in the middle of fitting mine and i dont like the way those brackets turn when fitted, poor design a fixed bar should be between the two cos from what i can make out if them centre brackets ever moved the rear wheels would too, this wouldnt happen with a fixed bar. shall i just fit it and shut up?:stupid::stupid:

i did look in the faq's but cant find anything, i've been going over my new zed with a fine tooth comb looking for what i can swap/ need to fix or replace. and have found that it still runs the std oil cooler (jap auto) but my red one has a mocal oil cooler and the std one is the auto box cooler, is their any write ups on how to fit one of these id like to swap it over to the new zed i was thinking i might just remove it from my red one and ask zedworld to fit it for me if they do the cam belt and service? its fairly std is running it as is doing any real harm for normal road use? only temporarily. still cant find my missing smoked indicator lo…

I love my convertible, but I have to say that I'm really sorry this didn't happen http://automotoscope.com/2010/11/18/ebay-find-of-the-day-1991-nissan-300zx-spyder-concept/

Hi Guys, Where, who, how much ta. :lol: Cheers.

does anyone have the part number for this please, or a place in the UK that i can get one, ordered the pulley today but i understand that a smaller belt is required. thanks.

Hi All, Had a quick search but couldn't find much. I'm planning on getting a Stack oil temp, oil pressure and boost gauge - the cheaper mechanical or electrical ones. Any advise on the pros and cons such as ease of installation etc? Thanks, Tom
