Hey Guys, Wondering how hard it is to change the ac compressor part!

I'm going to make the most of the long weekend to give myself a good start on the black Z. Obviously the main reason is to get rid of the slow NA engine... and convert to Twin Turbo power!! :tt1: Over and above what modifications I had in the white Z, it will also now be sporting a lightweight Fidanza flywheel, lightweight crank pulley, Apexi AVCR boost controller, NA rear diff, new exhaust system, japspeed decats, Apexi multichecker to monitor the engine, Apexi super airflow converter, Apexi turbo timer, Apexi rev-speed meter, Greddy boost gauge, HKS oil temp gauge, HKS oil temp gauge, remapped ECU, braided clutch hose.. and probably a couple of other bits I've…

...g plate import, 2002 imported, i like it..lots haha...rd with black leather, manual box, it has one odd alloy, have to sort that, but everything else seems spot on...fancy cat back stainless system, lightweight propshaft, turbo timer, adjusteable dump valves, induction kit, unusual bonnet/nosecone and skitrts, pics to come....if i stop driivng it long enough haha..had it at mates garage and he says he has never seen one as solid...

Nice car who ever you are, I was in the silver vectra estate...I give you the thumbs up as you passed!!! ;-)

I personally prefer the LWB Z, Why do people prefer the SWB model? Is it just down the personal preference?

Hi, i'm fitting my new exhaust system tomorrow so had a look under the car today and noticed that the decats dont have the fittings for the 2nd set of sensors (after the cats)I'm guessing the car will run ok without these fitted? and there will be no warning lights permanently on?

Hi everyone, I am having a bit of bother removing my gear knob on my 1991 twin turbo uk spec!!! Its black and plastic and i cant budge it!! Any ideas?? cheers ed

Just renewed for another year and I have in my hand a tax disc and insurance which starts May 1st 2011.... First time she is going back on the road since October! It's like buying a new car all over again :D

Does anyone know what the temperature reaches at the top of the engine bay, just under the hood? Cheerz, Alz.

Followed you from the roundabout where the audi dealer is in shrewsbury towards wem, was hoping you'd give it some but think maybe the ex-police unmarked VXR i was in may have put you off? lol :oops:

Help please, i realise this question has been asked before , however the links to online schematics / on line manuals do not represent the electrical layout i need. specifically i am going to wire in a KPH to MPH converter and need to splice into the instrument wiring, i have a later type cluster with HORIZONTAL type connectors can anybody reccomend a link which identifies the purpose of each wire on the connectors my car is a 93 TT jap spec Auto thanks Neil

CheerZ

after attempting to remove my exhaust which seems to be fused toighter forever. (ive decide it will be far less hassel to get someone witha ramp to do it for me) i found some little bits of surface rust, one penny sized chunk about a foot away from the rear seat. and a luittkle surface rust on the back of the sill by the rear wheel not into the actual sill itself. grrrr best sort that all out befiore it spreads! on a positive note that wa all i found. i even gave the sill a good poke about to check for soft spots

Help does anyone know where zedwizz has got to I'm in desperate need of a twin turbo manual flywheel and he has two can someone who has his number contact me with it please my conversion is up the creek without it thanks.

Going to be getting the rear quarter body work repaired next month, had a awesome quote for the repair plus respray of the offending panel, and hes going to sort my front bumper out so it fits properly. so all thoughts of getting a new 300zx now have gone.. Then going to be getting the cash together for the full body respray, will replace my drivers door with the dent in it for the one on my breaker before it goes for the respray, hoping to get it all done before JAE, think the only thing that isnt going to get sorted out in time for JAE will be the alloy refurb. Really cant wait to get her looking back to how she should.

Don't laugh but i have a Nissan Largo, i would like to know if there is anything on the market to convert a Z Manual gearbox into a cable or rod control one. The reason i ask is because the Largo runs the same 300Z auto gearbox. The problem i have is too much power for an auto gearbox and no way of controlling it. I have done the first KA24DE Turbo conversion in the UK and although it might be able to handle the 500+ Hp it will not control very well with the massive amount of Torque. If i could bolt on a Manual G Box and figure out how to run cable's to the gearstick that would be great, it's not that hard to fit a clutch pedal and master cylinder etc but my engine is…

Hi all, How easy is an electronic boost control to fit and where does it fit to? Cheers
