Got them with my last Z, they are new. Are they the turbo oil return pipes that usually go or something? :wacko:

Does anybody know anything about these? Have google'd it but cant find much info. Basically, my breaker has one, and im wondering if i can use it on my car. I dont know what its meant to run with tho. Turbos, injectors etc I assume nismo 555cc injectors, as thats whats on the car, but what else? Cheers

Hi mate, i know ive asked you before, but what did you paint your white zed with? You put a link up before, but i cant remember where. Cheers

i was looking at removing the stndard water temop gauge from the cluster and fitting an aftermarkrt(more reliable one) i take it this is simply a case of removing the cluster popping the old one out and popping the new one in and using teh existing cables? does anyone produce a combined oil and water temp? seems a good idea. im guessing taht would require a sandwatch plate and sender tho? final question what exactly should i be looking for gauges wise? any spefic types to look for i want to keep teh look fairly stock and dont want to brake the bank

Hi, anybody out there able to tell me what size , type and thread . brake line fittings will be needed when i change the corroded hard pipes on my 93 tt 300 ZX ???? also will it be the 3/16" brake line i should be using ( i know its advised to use Cunifer) thanks Neil

Well this morning i drove my 300 zx and it was messing about loads! no boost, wouldn't idle, wouldn't rev, wouldn't drive slow or fast!! i got it to my garage and couldn't see anything wrong however i had a slight leek from the boost gauge pipes and one had collapsed so i try to change the pipe however as soon as i pulled the pipe of the valve the valve snapped (Drivers side wing under windscreen) i have now blanked this pipe off and the car seems to be running ok would this small valve cause all these problems? or is it where it was cold and there is something else i need to check? also what oil should be in the car? it has 15 40 as that is what autodata recommended…

need to replace some badly corroded brake lines, does anybody have a set of brake pipe bending pliers that i could beg borrow or steel, ( i have a decent flaring kit allready) thanks Neil

i was going through byfleet area yesterday morning between 08:30-09:00 i drove past you in my black one,shed loads of traffic...i did put my hand up but not sure if you seen me?

hey guys, i bought a new front bumper and the spaces for the sidelights/ indicators are long like the fog lights. is it just a case of cutting holes where the bulbs go in and using wire or clips to secure them in. cheers

I was working in the boot area of the swb yesterday and was about to take the spare wheel out and I thought it look a bit flat So took it out and found this small pouch And inside found this small compressor Plus the space saver looked so cute lol Do all swb zeds have these space savers with compressors and do some lwb have them?

Let's say one of the pipes that went to the actuators fell off (just one) what would the boost read? Would it run at all?

Some of you may recall the Green TT has been off the road for a while...Well it's risen again again like a phoenix so it's been rechristened... Many thanks to Jimmer for all the work on the engine change..... and getting the MOT done THANK YOU Big thanks to all at Zedworld for a day today..... New Rear shockers (supplied by me and fitted by them - how many other garages would do that ?) New brakes all round, running problem sorted, boost leak and replacement TPS, a new crank main pulley with a timing mark on it and a new passenger side rear bearing and hub ! And thanks to Lynda for the tea and toast THANK YOU Zedworld Car is now now running better…

just wondering what parts on a LWB tt cant be transfered to a SWB tt, as need to no which parts to sell off my LWB

Are the normal spark plugs ok at higher boost rates, ie upgrading to 14/15 psi and also is there a 'wrong type' to get if running higher boost?

A big thinks to all at ZWORLD, My car is running perfect now after they have done there magic.:lol::lol::lol: Cheers to Jeff and all. Paul

Yesterday, i was on route to a meeting on Streatham High Road, just down from the station spotted a siver zed, nice and tidy H270 *** at approx 1230pm. Flashed lights, but was in a transit, stupid taxi in front thought i was flashing him.

just finished painting my new 89 spec spoiler from car.mad. now i need to work out how to fit the darn thing..... i wont have much time this weekend and ive only got thursday night free, so seeings as i dont have the brake light or sticker yet there in the post.. is there anything i need to pull though the spoiler, wires wise for the brake light and what exactly is it? im assuming its "gluded" on how and with what opinions please guys....

I got my Zed back from Zedworld today! All running, i never thought the day would come! I got a recovery truck to pick it up, as no tax or mot. I know i could book it for a mot and be legal to drive it, but it would be my luck i'd get pulled and they would find something to do me on! My normal man, got somebody else to pick it up, who rammed it up the truck and split the front bumper!! I was still happy to have it back tho, and i was debating putting the standard UK bumper on anyway. Its smoking like a trooper tho! Im convinced its not the turbos, they were good, and the smoke is from both exhausts. Im hoping its the PCV valves, will be getting…

Can anyone please tell me what bodykit is on my car for this Banzai article?. I have no idea lol :helpsmilie:

Whilst untaking an autobox change Jamie spotted the rubber turbo water pipe that links two metal pipes on the rear if the engine, a common failure and was just about to fail big time, lucky for this engine its was spotted beforehand. Jeff TT Nasty pipe removed New pipe fitted
