Quick one - my zed is slipping the clutch in 5th at motorway cruising speeds, but the previous owner had the flywheel and clutch replaced less than 5k ago, so i dont think they're worn out - can the clutch just be adjusted better?

This has popped up on pistonheads needing a possible engine but what a bargin. I did think of getting it myself and using as my big power motor but i dont think a shorty will be big enough so someone buy it and get it in the club :) http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2365023.htm

I have enough threads going already...but learning about the car so cant be helped. This is another quicky.... I read in another thread that import owners should have a certificate. Well, I don't have one. Do many others have a certificate, and does it really matter. I have the red V5 and my car was imported in 1990 if memory serves. As far as I know I'm legal. :shifty:

finally got round to changing the series 1 air con to series 2 today . i must say im pleased with the results and extra control it gives . the bit i like best is the windscreen aimed air via the economy button as opposed to having to use the air con to keep the windscreen demisted . that alone has gotta be worth an extra 1-2 mpg during the colder months and a few more available bhp. every little bit helps .

Hi, Next step for me will be a re-spray but dont know what colour to go for really undecided, may fancy white with black wheels but not sure. Any sudgestions. Cheers Mark

hi all does anyone know if you can see any signs of knackered turbo seals if you take the exhaust pipes of cheers

just wondering what alloys fit the zed, im looking for a set for mine an wondering what other fitments fit, i was told the other day mustang wheels fit.

Hi,just wondering if their are any regular meets, or events which some of you guys attend, im in Milton keynes and would like to meet up at some stage.When i had my TVR there were regular meetings ,each month i would go to Northampton and Baldock to meet fellow enthusiasts.Tvr had a very good club but likewise so has Nissan there used to be at least 20 cars attend each meet.It would be great to see some of the lovely cars belonging to you lot.

As the big day gets ever nearer (had our first false alarm on new years eve!) im thinking more about life with baby, and crikey its scary lol! As far as the seats go though, i was wondering about converting the back seats, which are pretty useless for passengers really, as both the mrs and i are fairly tall, into a platform for a childs seat to be securely mounted in the centre. what would this involve do you think? i mean surely it will have to be safety tested by someone? i was thikning something along the lines of seat in the middle and soe storage space either side. but any thoughts, ideas, suggestions or more importantly warnings lol would be greatly appr…

guys , help, i bought a HID kit removed my existing high beam bulb and compared the two, oh dear .it appears the nissan original has a spring built into the body of it anyone come across that before, im now at a loss as to what type of HID kit to buy, i have pictures but cant attach them to this site

Hello, im having problems with my zeds windows they just both packed in a few weeks ago, i installed a new amp in the drivers side, no difference. so ive installed new drivers side motor and regualator, and got another window amp, installed it all and hey presto they both worked, next morning get into the car and the windows dont work again! the amp makes a fast clicking sound when switches are pressed. the only part i havent changed is the passengars motor and reg, all wiring looks good into the car, if i power the motors up on a battery they work fine. could the drivers side switches cause this fault?, its the only thing left!! any hel…

I can just stick these in without any conversion of anything right? http://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/H3C-ABD-Extreme-White-100W-Xenon-Pair.html?source=webgains&siteid=47683 Stupid question maybe, just want to be sure before I order. Cheers!

seems like this should be on here somewhere but i cant find it. got in the car this morning and it went up to 6 which it hasnt done b4 then slowly went down to about 1 over about 10 minutes, so the question is.......... should it be on the same pressure all the time, if so what? or is it normal to go up or down?

Just a quicky, has anyone successfully fitted a bike rack to their Zed? I've seen a tow bar with bike-holder attachment, but I don't think there is room for a tow bar due to my exhausts!

Ok, so I was under my dashboard today, drivers side and discovered a couple of bare wires, one was red (and maybe white too) but small. The other was yellow and quite a thick one, also bare (this one is my main concern!). I also found a plug and socket, these don't look like they'll fit together, but the wire on the plug isn't long enough to reach. I know its a long shot, but if anyone knows if these should be connected (and to what) please let me know! :) Cheers!

I was just pondering what is still available from NIssan. I dont mean consummables and similar small bits and pieces like service items. Just looking at some posts on here a new shell seems to be quite often sought after......can you get a NEW one ? Mark

:helpsmilie:Hope someone can shed some light on this please.:sad: Just recently,when i start my 300 tt from cold i get a high tick over, around 2,100 rpm. When i attempt to pull away the engine nearly dies accompanied with this rapid clicking. (3 ticks per second approx'):confused1: It appears to be coming from straight in front of me but it is difficult to pinpoint exactly due to the high volume. After a minute or so it seems to be OK. Would someone point me in the right direction please.

if i hadnt just bought 1 id be after this!.......... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1994-NISSAN-300-ZX-TURBO-AUTO-RED-/170584154237?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item27b79ba07d gagging to get it but im only just outta the doghouse for getting the last 1

After all the supply issues i had with the wrong supply of my Rangie Wing Mirror (which I'm still waiting for the right one to arrive!) and the bulbs finally arriving one by one I discover my shiney new plasma oil pressure gauge has been supplied with the illumination wire missing out the back!!!! And, as I didn't notice this until I had pre installed it into it's gauge panel, (which scratched the case all to blazes as the fit was so tight) I will have to coiugh up for another in full!!!! Arrggghhhh gutted!
