Poor Z. :crying:

Had the zed of the road for 6 months now, fitted my new turbos, hoses etc. engine back in last weekend fired it up sounds good but no temp gauge no boost gauge no clock the list goes on. Have not touched the car for a few day as I had stomach bug. Today turned the key fired up and now it all works!! Hoping if i leave it for a month it will respray it self and grow bigger wheels....well I can dream.

Can anyone tell me an easy way of getting the top roof trims back on? They seem fairly awkward and the clips are pretty crap. Where's the best place to get them from? Or could I just bond the trims on and not bother with the clips? Already marked my new paint by trying to get these on! Most annoyed lol

Have lost the inflating tyre adapter for my flush mounted team dynamics wheel /tyre valves........ Any ideas where i can get a replacement or will i have to buy a complete new set? Cheerz J

Another recommendation from me!!!!! :online2long: I have had a flashing red led for my immobiliser since I got the car, but never thought it was bright enough even at night. I do have another red led and this blinks 3 times, this is for the alarm, this is a touch brighter. :tongue: I have just withdrawn the immobiliser one out of its hole in the right pod, it now just dangles inside hidden away, still working but not now visible. Replaced in the hole with this one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Pre-Wired-Flashing-BLUE-12V-Led-with-Clip_W0QQitemZ300408733821QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item45f1c1807d this is much much brighter, cri…

got my car in the garage after spending all early morning emptying rubbish into skip, cleaned garage floor then it took 7 of us to reverse car up a slight slope into a garage. after putting gearbox away securely i noticed something.............. something is perhaps missing from side of Gearbox. pictures below taken from phone; anybody know what part this may be?

hi all. does anyone know who to contact in the club regarding items advertised on here by another member that i payed for and never received. the guy wont even contact me to explain why. has anyone else experienced this ? ? i have been a member now for a while and so far found this club to be extremely helpfull for advice and parts. it would be a real shame if people started to abuse the trust and honesty promoted by most. any advice on this would be great.

hi peeps, firstly does the zeds cc work well? I have a breaker and am thinking about wipping out all the cc stuff to stick it in my slicky, does the cc wiring run into the main loom or is it seperate? Is there a seperate controll unit for it or is it?

Im sure someone has had this before or is getting it. Its almost like condensation, but only happens when the blower is on and appears quite greasy. Probably something to do with the heater matrix, but need to be sure, before ripping it out. Im also getting a burning water smell in the cab when the heater is on. I did a coolant flush about 2 months ago, but i will do it again tomorrow, just to see if it makes a difference. Can anyone shed any light..............Jeff :bow: Cheers Graham

If anyone is thinking about getting their Z checked over by ZedWorld...stop thinking about it and do it!!! Thought I would share this with you.... A few weeks ago my heater matrix blew leaving me in a cloud of steam a long way from home on a freezing Friday night on the M25. Came home courtesy of the AA (very useful, but most undignified!) Rang ZedWorld the following day, spoke to Jamie and got my car booked in for a new heater matrix. They collected my car from Northamptonshire on a low loader, fitted the matrix and competed a ConZult. To cut a long story short, Jeff's laptop showed some strange readings and after further investigation he found that someon…

Getting tiresome now and I want to get the Z out of hibernation! I usually get it out and taxed during April, but I am not going to bother now until next month! I think this weather's supposed to carry on for the next week or two! Had so much hail last night, it looked like it had snowed! Brrrr! Yuk! Anyone else postponing their 'end of hibernation'?

Im on the look out for a set of rear wheel bearings and i stumbled upon a bit of info from our friends across the water: http://www.z1motorsports.com/product_info.php?cPath=4_25_28&products_id=3700&osCsid=ee7df60a054f1ff43a82f9dc87bf4131 Now, on the left hand side of that page, it says that the same bearing can be used on both sides as long as the location pin is moved from one hole to the other. I can see how this works but im just wondering why would the traders, ive found in this country, charge different prices for the Drivers and Passenger side bearings if its just a case of moving a pin?

Thought it was cybernet's for some reason, but it's not. I am sure I remember this car on here a few years ago? Absolutely appalling advert though. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1991-NISSAN-300zx-FAIRLADY_W0QQitemZ180488110613QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAutomobiles_UK?hash=item2a05ee0215
