General Discussions - 300ZX Related

I'm sure when I first started coming on here a few years ago there was a thread that had a list of free improvements like removing things that weren't necessary etc - where has it gone? Or am I thinking of another site? - if so can someone point me in the right direction lol.

What would be the normal repair for this? Clean up as much as possible treat and paint? Would you put a skim of filler over the the turret mount patch just to smooth it out? Thanks for looking, James

lol looks like us mods are all out buying new Zeds, (come on StellaZ hurry up) So this is Rev1's old car and I'm sure this is going to bring a tear to his eye, (really sorry about that, but she is in good hands matey) After a very exhilarating drive home yesterday, i spent most of the night (12am to 3am) fitting my LED conversion that Groover had done for me (bloody top work that man) and fixing a stereo that was refusing to eject one of Rev1's disks. and then went sleep after i got home from work today, i instantly ran out to her and started work, parking both Zeds up next to each other i set about removing the back panels to switch my UK rear seat belts …

The Metal strip that separates the targas. cant seem to figure out how to get a tool in to the torx screws that run down it.

After some serious beginning teething troubles, my car went for a short stint with zed world. Now its back its a totally different car. I just dont want to get out of it.:clap: Its a red LWB TT auto 1990 jap import. modifications so far. aftermarket air filter, freeflow exhaust system, uprated oil cooler, autobox cooler rad bypassed from rad and external one fitted, standard jspec wheels sprayed graphite black, stillen front nose cone, new silicone boost pipes. From what I understand the engine and turbos are now is fairly good nick, apart from a slight oil leak from the rocker cover. Ive currently got a set of clear side repeaters coming and a set of…

Not sure where I should post this. I'm a new member and just want to let everyone know about my new software for Nissan and the 300zx. I have own 300zx cars for a few years and have websites for my software and for my Zs. Here are the links and thanks for checking them out. Gary Links Removed: NO Unauthorized Trading, Sorry.

Hi Folks, Just some advice, need to replace the pipes as one of them is starting to split on my tt, can anyone tell me what the differance is on these two types that are listed on ebay ? First one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310237444750&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT Second One http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NISSAN-300ZX-TWIN-TURBO-HARD-PIPE-INTERCOOLER-HOSE-KIT-/220535078817?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3358ea3fa1

i dont know if im the first to ask this but my rev counter is going nuts one minute it works then it does then it goes bonkers with needle darting all over the place has this happened to anyone else or is it just me lol

white lwb high spoiler and quad light conversion near m27 junction 12 heading towards winchester.

i was behind you for a bit, driving an "interesting" van :lol: zed looked smart mate

A friend of mine is asking where the braided plastic coated pipe on nearside under intercooler intake goes, i know it joins to a metal pipe which runs along chassis rail for a bit, but where does it go after that. Anyone please?

Saw it on the way into uni, didn't get much of a look but I'd be interested to see who's nearby.

I just bought my Zed 2 days ago and have already managed to reset my boost controller back to factory settings :whistling: Few questions I'm kinda stuck with is, if the controller is now back to normal will the engine just be back to stock boost and fuelling (as im worried about overboosting and pre detonation). Also does anyone have any experience in setting them up using the AUTO program or even manual? The car runs stock turbos/fuel pump/injectors. Any input would be great :thumbup:

......think this guy is taking the rarity of a convertable a little to far price wise http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SEXY-RARE-UNIQUE-Nissan-300ZX-SWB-TRUE-Convertible-/270644363707?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item3f03a941bb

Not the hardest of mods to do but it works and you now have the choice of controling your brakes all by yourself or having abs do the hard work. I went switch crazy and fitted one to my wideband sensor so i can turn the wideband sensor off when the ignition is in the on position and im not planning on starting the car which leads to a dead sensor, having to warm itself up for no reason. Fitted a switch for my A pillar pods so i can switch them off completely at night to stop the glare which is dangerous, it really made it hard to see at night down those dark country lanes with the constant blue and red lights flashing in my eyes.

just wanting to see what the general concensus on this is when going for cat back systems or and after market exhaust do you prefere twin exit or single i think i like the 2:2guns:

sorry if they're a post on this but could anyone tell me what the diffrences between the swb and lwb models exept for size that is

Anyone heard or seen him lately, just hoping he's ok as I pmd him and got no response and he's usually very on the ball but then thought he might have gone away or something

For a long time now I wanted a SWB TT manual I now have one:dance: Got the plane over to Stansted with my son and met the owner of a 93 series2 swb tt he had owned it for 6 years doing very little miles and garaged in winter.It is in very standered form except it is chiped and jetted to 350 bhp and UK Nissan alloys on the rear,58k timming belt done by Jeff?(along with chip jets and uk clocks)New Nissan shocks and clutch remote locking and immobiliser and fitted tracker, interior is like new everthing works as it should and feck can it go:w00t: 2nd and 3rd gear is sooooo fast it scared me but I think I will get used to it:lol:. After buying the zed we went up to see Jeff a…

what years of manufacture of the p10 primera can you use the matrix out of for a zed . dont fancy buying the wrong one. cheers in advance for your replies andy

So here we have a technical fault that was dealt with in the workshop recently, thought it may be interesting to see what you guys would make of it and see if maybe we have a budding technician or a right good guesser among the membership!! I can tell you this is a weird fault with a surprising conclusion, read it all through before making any conclusions. So let start with some background first, a standard non turbo running well with no major issues that developed a small water leak, the owner with some tech help from Jamie here and some pipes removed the plenum and replaced the offending pipes, the work seem to go well but once all back together the first start u…

Bummer dude, not sure if it's the wet or.... tried cleaning the maf and it started first go, then went back to it's normal thing... It starts first time after a day or so leaving it, then after about 5 mins of normal throttle and driving, it starts losing power. Example: When you put your foot on the pedal it near enough dies, so you let it off quick before it stalls at a roundbout or something and you get whacked lol. Anyway.... if you feather the throttle really really light it will very slowly accelerate, once it's got above about 1000 rpm you can treat it as you want, but as soon as you're back on the 800rpm mark and sitting again, you darn't hit that pe…

Was that you i saw at 16:45 Rich or have you sold the zed now?

Been busy Saturday with the rear lights. Having already had some clear indicator lenses bought a while back from Medallion Man (Gerry), I then saw a thread the other day where Gonzo was selling his that he had made up himself. The penny dropped and I decided that was the way to go for now as the full led conversion from zedwizz is still under consideration. Firstly take everything and interior panels from the car Now a picture showing them apart, not difficult to do this, just take your time and NEVER RUSH. The best advice is to keep slipping the complete unit in and out of the oven, just a few mins at 90 or so degrees is enough to keep softening up The two …
