Just about to put them back in the car as one lump. People have said you can do it on the drive with ramps! How low do I need the sub frame and how high to lift the car? Oh and wish me luck.

Guys My stoptech brake blueprint went to japan a few weeks ago so they could tell me if I could get a set of 18s. Unfortunately they have reccomended 19s so those will be the seven spoke titanium as the five spokes dont go above 18s. Anyhows do these sizes look sensible enough from rays? Hi Martin, These are the sizes that RAYS recommend. 57S-pro Front:19x85 ET35B 5-114 - £653.04 + vat each Rear:19x95 ET35B 5-114 - £655.15 + vat each Colour: RMC/Ti rim Delivery time: 8 to 10 weeks from initial order. To place the order we will require a 25% deposit. The 57pro is not available in 19”

Hi folks, The other day i was looking on the site, trying to find out if anyone else had issues with their short shifter being stiff and awkward to use. Finding that other had... but with no real answer to sorting it, i pulled mine and had a fiddle. The nylon bushes are quite plainly............CRAP ! so. I got some fine wet n dry and just gave the metal shaft a quick once over :thumbup1: to remove any build up. I then used a mix of both vaseline ( this is a help thread.... honest ! ) and silicone spray and reinstalled the bushes back into the shifter and put it all together. Its 100 % better little effort is needed to engage gears yet it fe…

... well, nearly :(

About 3:00pm heading north by Harlow Loved those white wheels :thumbup1: Pity I had to pull off, or we could have had a little play :)

Hi everyone! had problems with my zed missing/ cutting out when going from high revs to completely off the gas. changed the fuel filter, stripped down and checked the loom, cleaned up or replaced all the connections, checked the timing and it run perfect. then stopped for fuel and it started again. think its just down to not having any clips on the injector plugs and there vibrating loose? hears the thing, when its missing i get a lot of wobble from the steering wheel under braking which wasn't there when it was running properly.... any ideas????!! Problem no. 2, the fan in the roof runs with the ignition off, draining the battery, took it out but somthing is still li…

Hi people, Bad news this morning, i hit a deer doing 50 mph. Front bumper is smashed, right corner. The gap between the wing and bonnet looks bigger now,(hopefully it can be pushed back in a little). No other damage aparrent as yet, but i need to get the front bumper off to inspect, ie, intercooler, piping, etc. So, i need a new front bumper to start with. I remember so time back some posts about the 99 spec front bumper, and places that sell them. Does anyone know where the best place to get 1? Also, is it wise to paint first then fit? Can i fit myself, i seem to remember that these bumpers do not have any locating points/holes and they must be drilled. I am at wo…

Spotted a white Jap Spec TT with a series 3 spoiler yesterday in Ponteland Road, Newcastle around 6pm last night. Was it you??

Hi Guys, just fitted my 6x4 Mongoose cat back this morning and now its smoking like mad at tickover. The smoke is like a white fog and stinks! I'm hoping it just something burning off the exhaust and it will clear. On the move its not visible. I've only done about 3 miles in it since.... Any comment guys? cheers.

Hi can anyone tell me what possible cause of whining from front nearside of a 1995 lwb N/A just passed MOT with flying colours so ruling out wheel bearing im thinking clutch it only happens when car is cold and seems to increase with the revs cant see anything obvious, any clues would be a help.

Hi Guys, I`ve seen somewhere some black faced indiglo dials for the zed, I quite like the white but i think the black would suit my car better, unless you have seen some really nice ones out there, any pic`s/websites please. Also I want some chrome ring`s to go around the dials, anyone got any?? Cheers Daz.

does anybody know where i can get these tail lights from within in the uk? And whether US spec lights are legal over here ( indicator lens colour)??? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NISSAN-300ZX-Z32-90-96-BLACK-3PCS-TAIL-LIGHTS-JDM-DEPO_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem335acac213QQitemZ220566569491QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

Today I started building a real nice double din centre console for my new kenwood bluetooth phone satnav jobby as well as my EDFN switch. Because of the shape of the two inserts its actually quite tricky to get a perfectly flush fit, so I completely removed both sockets and have fiberglassed all the gaps and am in the process of countersinking and filling the front so it has a dead smooth look with a countersunk stereo trim so it will look mint. I will post some pictures when it is done and im thinking of making 4 gauge pods to go on the top over the vents as well.

Do our cars have an engine bay socket as well as the drivers footwell for conzult ect ???

Hello everyone.. Hope you are enjoying your Zs with your roofs off. I sure have been as the sun has been out the past few days down London..:) What I want to know is what people with aftermarket side mounts have done to their bumpers to allow the air to flow through to the coolers right. I have got Pace side mounts which are very big compared to the stocks and a big portion of them is hidden due to the bumper I have on. The pick up and boost of the car has been sluggish at times and I always felt (the past 2 years that she has been on the road especially) that the car has got more excitement to give with a few niggles done here and there. So last night I bothered t…

As the clubs TLO i should remain tight lipped with regards to using traders here but after driving my zed home from Zedworld today after a 60,000 timing belt change i can only say a really big thanks to jeff and family as the car ran faultless and strong coming home as i expected..fantastic service with great comunication while the car was there:thumbup1: cheers Jeff..

Just tried to start the zed up and the battery is dead no egnition lights or anything, it been stud for 2 weeks on the drive, surely the battery can not be totaly flat can it? and its a new battery. Mark

Ok so heres an update: '91 NA 300zx: hesitation problems, erratic idle and stalling. - Disconnected maf made no difference other than a slightly higher erratic idle. - Cold ambient air makes the problem worse. (less than 5c) - No air leaks found. - PCV valves are pretty clean (replaced one with a new one). - Throttle bodies cleaned. - Touching the coolant temp sensor connector would increase revs, this was fixed by cleaning the connector. - Hesitation mostly gone and in most cases car accelerates faster than it ever has in my ownership. - Car no longer stalls and hesitation cure might be because of the warmer weather? New …
