Im not after a all singing all dancing one which requires an university degree to operate. Plus i aint got that sort of cash. IM after a good value for money one that can have a setting for high boost, standard boost and possibly a setting with no boost? (for economy) I dont want a LIDIL's Special 99p one thats made out of cheese and an old pokemon either. So i supose i middle of the rangeish. Also- my car is almost standard, just an exhaust, so would i need to mess about with the ecu or can the car handle, for instance 350HP without any other Mods? The car is more than quick enough now anyway. but just after that little bit more poke just to…

Can someone tell me the wsark plug is best for my 300zx non turbo thank you

Went to look at a Z last night which would have fitted well in my project plans and was a good price as the owner was moving away. It was over 200 miles away and the only thing I didnt know about was if there was any rust, so all I could have done was ask repeatedly over the phone and email if there was any rust. The answer every time was just over right rear arch and he emphasised that it was a very little bit. Other than that its very good condition and viewing highly recommended. Armed with that info me and the mrs set off in her polo for an 8 hour round trip. When I got there yeah, the Z looked and sounded nice but the first place I went was the right rear a…

Hi Jeff I understand you may be able to offer 1 peice prop shafts. I am looking for a lightened shaft for my SWB TT with manual conversion, with the NA subframe and diff. Not sure whether to go ally or steel (or even carbon?!) what do you recommend please! Mark

how many fuel leaks can one car have????well let me tell you SIX its leaking from most of the fuel pipes,they where all loose,i can only think its vibration,tightend them all up cant see anymore or smell fuel,

I need some advice on prop shafts please. I am looking to uprate to a single peice shaft, at the same time as changing the rear subframe to an NA version (complete including NA diff) on my SWB TT Manual (converted from auto) So, a two part question really: a)which material should i choose - Steel, ally, or carbon? I will be uprating the engine power in due course so it needs to take a fair amount of torque. b) Where can i get one?! Thanks guys

someone in somesort of hurry on coryton roundabout bout 4 pm today,

I called a couple of auto shops for paint today. I need Silver Ice Metallic KL0. One said it would have to be mixed but didn't want the code until I ordered. The second said they had KL0, but it was called something else (I forget what now, think it was Star Silver). I said 1992 (its actually 1993 K Reg but my brain wasn't working), he said yeah from 92 onwards! I said I'm going to come by get and can and test the match but then discovered I'd lost by debit card... I'll go by tomorrow and get some, but I started to wonder if its called something else in the UK? Seems to be Silver Ice Met in the US. How can the same Nissan paint code have two different …

can any one help when i hold the brake in and put the car into drive it stall unless i give it some gas

Finding a Nissan 300ZX convertible is not necessarily an amazing eBay occurrence. Finding the 1991 300ZX folding hardtop convertible concept car, however, is quite a big deal. Nissan sold the Z32, or second generation 300ZX, in the United States from 1990 to 1996. In 1993, the automaker launched a convertible version to go along with existing t-top and hardtop variants. This came in response to aftermarket companies offering convertible conversions. Before the 1993 convertible came out, Nissan produced a concept version that was shown at the 1992 Paris, Geneva and Detroit auto shows. And while the production car utilized soft-tops, however this concept featured a pow…

Has anybody fitted a fibreglass tailgate lower skin to a LWB after removing the factory abortion. I need to know that it blends in with the bodywork and does not crack when the boot is slammed down, the colour is met. black. cheers.

When I bought my Zed I was led to believe it had a straight cut box, so I went looking through the receipts and came across this - Now is it me or does this look like the most unconvincing receipt ever :/ Looks made up to me :angry: The box does whine 1st-4th like a straight cut box and then quiet down in 5th tho!

Hi all wide bodied zeders ...looking at the next step for me is chosing wheel and tyres ...:confused1:.it would really really help me if you could post up the trye sizes you went for and any pics fom the back preferebly as to how they sat in the arches...:detective:.the wheels i am going for have to be at least 18" to clear the K sport brakes and calipers .....thanks in advance cheers Steve

Does anyone have these on there Zed?

Busy Saturday, was good to see some zeds outside for a change, lets hope the weather gets better and better as Summer time rolls in. Jeff TT Now this is the way to transport your zed, tilt bed and fully covered, looks tight but with the side openings up it was easy to drive up and in and get out just fine.

My car goes on the dyno tmoz for its base map. Jimmer and John Dixon are going half way across the country with it. Now it is only gonna be the base map without boost nos or racing fuel as the engine is new but take a guess on the bhp and I will post the results up tmoz. I'm thinking around 450 at the wheels

Hey guys, im wondering whats a better option to hold safely 500 + bhp , the z1 clutch special with flywheel or the Rps max clutch with the fidanza flywheel as im ordering this week and im not 100 percent sure whats a better option. Also is the Ams underdrive pulley good? and i know i have to get the water overdrive pulley aswell. Thanks in advance : )

just gonna order some Rota GTR's online and they have two different offsets? 18 x 9.5 ET30 (rear) 18 x 8.5 ET35 or ET20 for the front, i can never remember the offsets and which way is best? please advise... james

My engine temperature is Low on the stock gauge. i know they can be in accurate but, in this case it seems odd.. problem being, the temp sits at the 1/4 mark and rarely goes above this even when taken on a long drive, but weirdly. once the engine is turned off, then on again within (minutes) the temp falls even lower, then rises again to about the 1/4 mark. has, no water leaks, as coolant remains high, and no air locks, the coolant temp sensor also doesnt work as when disconnected the fan doesnt kick in, and yes ive checked the relay and replaced with a working one. car also seems to be using LOTS more fuel than usual, help me sort this cold running. as i…
