I've installed about 10 CD players in different cars and don't bother with adapters as I'm comfortable with wiring etc. and found a wee alpine CD player as my car had some shoddy Ford Transit-special JVC junk installed. Anyway I had spliced all the wires after cross-referencing and cross checking them and had the CD player sat by the gearstick to test it worked before reassembling etc. The arial shoots up. Hmmmm :helpsmilie: I have a look again to check I haven't done anything dodgy.. I put it into 2nd ign. and hold power down. No joy! I jump down and check the fuse box, nothing gone there, the fuse on the back of the CD player was also fi…

Hi guys sad day that when selling my uk 300 t/t 2 guys came from france and bought it,been in touch with them recently. said they had a great drive back to france covering 800 miles,makes you wonder,, why travel all this way for a uk 300 and then export it to france ,dont understand it myself.

Yep its coming close to the time when I need to say "goodbye" to my 1995 Version S SWB NA man Slicktop. My new slicktop is approaching completion and I cant really justify keeping this one. So today i have been refreshing the back brakes ready for an MOT later in the week hopefully!:innocent: Then it will be time to put up an advert. I bought this car in nov 2007 from the importer in Birmingham. It was a new import in Oct 2007. I am the only UK driver. It was registered in the dealers name then transferred to me. In the past several members expressed an interest in owning this car so now its coming for anyone interested... Advert to follow soon with full sp…

Hi all, I had to break open my wiring loom in the engine bay to trace a short, and found that many of the wires were hardened and cracked. I was replacing a few broken connectors when I discovered that the Det sensor plug (Det sensor side) has only one wire and that the small black wire has snapped or been snipped???, leaving only a small amount of wire left on the plug. Tracing the wire down as far as I could see, I couldn't find any trace of the remains of the wire that should connect to the plug . Does this wire send a negative signal back to the ECU? Is it essential (small black wire), could it of been left like that on purpose? If it does need r…

i saw a red 300zx lwb go threw crieff today being followed by a white celica (i think) with castrol sticker job. just wondered if it was anyone on here.

Id just like to say i met John For the First time Saturday after speaking to him many times on the phone.John mapped my car for me and i was amazed at the outcome.He found almost 60 bhp more at the wheels by altering the cam timing and fuelling ,i was amazed.The cars now pushing 436 rwhp and over 400ft lbs of torque.If your looking to get a custom map for your modified 300zx hes your man :punk:

is there a upper spoiler avalible for the 300 like this? thanks nick

What does one reckon on the link. Looks a bit pricy, but gives you the option (Loud/not loud). Cheaper than changing the Silencer (Not in my case -- silent that is!!) Would it affect performance that much too worry about http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120571005638&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Getting frigging burnt while fitting the clutch pedal assembly !!. Not to bad to do without removing the dash , just need to remove the lower trim panel and the air ducting under the dash , i had to drop the control unit on the side of the matrix to give a bit more room , if you look up under the dash there is an electrical box of some sort that is bolted into the threaded hole the clutch pedal uses , so drop that out of the way . The clutch pedal ready to go in , took a bit of shoe horning but it went in quite easy ! I cut down the auto brake pedal to the manual size Ftted the master cylinder and re-fitted all the gubbins and bobs ya uncle , q…

I have a tiny little looks like vacume pipe comming from were the fuse,s are drivers side the rubber pipe is about two foot long and has a little yellow tape on it, looks like it goes to the inner wing somewere but anyone know. Oh my cars uk tt man.

My car is a 92', jap import, just wondering if it has an airbag, as the drivers side sun visor has all the bumf about the SRS airbag, was it an option in that year? or has the sun visor been replaced, just wanted to know!

I have had intermittent cutting out issues for a while and always linked it in some way to the idle control and a fast idle which was likely to be the fast start valve, have replaced them both cleaned them but every now and then it would still annoyingly cut out. I have binned them all and replaced the idle control with a 15mm ball valve and set the idle to 900rpm, its been on for a month now, been to Crail for a track/drift day, been to the lakes and not cut out once. Need to rig up something for a fast idle as its a bit lumy for the first 30seconds with out the fast idle.

... in Betwsycoed yesterday (Saturday): I now realise how badly my car needs lowering, looked like a monster truck next to this one.

What speed rating should the NA tyres be?

Anyone got any pice of smoked rear lights on a Zed (preferably black) i can only find pics on Google of fully blacked out ones. Thanks guys P

I've got a load of different gadgets and controllers ready to fit to the zed, but struggling to find any way to cram them all into the centre console. I've never considered putting them in the glovebox before, but I found this picture earlier and it seems to be the solution I've been missing all this time. So does anyone have a similar set-up in their car? Was it hard to make or is it something I can buy? I've got an Apexi AVCR Boost Controller, Apexi Rev/Speed Meter, Apexi Super Air Flow Converter to find homes for :turned:

i was thinking about moving my ptu from its original position were abouts would you guys recommend and pics if poss

Made the trek up to john dixon's today to have the q45 maf fitted and a set up done. So a few hours on the dyno and john's magic touch later.... Found the position of the external wastegate is wrong and needs to be changed so the ebc can't be plumbed in as it pobably won't contol the boost properly. Also there's not enough fuel top end and until the boost is controlled it can't be set just yet. But once that is done john should get about 50 more horses loose. So who wants to guess at todays best figure? When the car came in the first run was 360bhp at the wheels, after several runs John got the power up rather well. Below is a graph of one of the average power …

has all the info about the front wings? Thought it would be under BF - Body but no luck. :confused1:
