http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1491074.htm I was half thinking of flogging mine (I'm not going to) so had a glance on there to gauge prices. It's a good spec but that's an awful lot of money! Maybe you've all seen it before... I did try a search.

Not sure if you knew it was in this one, but theres a pic and some text about it! :thumbup:

I have been fitting the new EFI loom and have got a connecter that I don't know where it goes to. Its on the bunch with the AAC Valve, Exhaust gas sensor, VTC solenoid, Injector and coilpack. Here is a pic of the connector below. I ve looked at the online manual and it doesn't seem to show this connector. Anyone know where it goes please? Thanks, Ant

I have a Ashspec rad which doesn't have the pipe for the expansion bottle. Is it ok to run without the expansion bottle? I think I remember reading that it was ok but I can't find the post. So is it ok without? Thanks, Ant

Sat thinking just now, I've had mine 5 years this summer. Probably the longest I've ever kept a car. How time flies! Apart from the misshap with a piston shortly after purchase, this car has been the most reliable I've had. Just wondering how long people have had their current Z for?

For several months now my clock has stoped working(no jokes I said clock lol)this morning I started up the zed and yes it has fixed itself and is working fine I just had to reset the time, I love my zed:clap:

My car smells very rich and working out how much fuel I went through with testing the engine I'm inclined to believe it is indeed running rich, would this be a problem with the o2 sensors? Or something else, I think I do still have a small air leak on the inbonnet fuse box air intake pipe to throttle body, could this also be a attributing factor? Or should I be looking some where else?

Won't be to everyone's taste, but I think it looks absolutely amazing. Such a great stance, and an awesome set of wheels (Hayashi Racing 505) :thumbup: http://speedhunters.com/archive/2009/11/04/car-feature-gt-gt-that-240z.aspx

We all like good brakes and there are many ways to improve your standard set up but of course cost can be an issue. So quite a popular method is to retain the existing calipers and use adapter plates to move the caliper out so a larger disc can be fitted. But get the maths wrong and what looks like an upgrade can be much less than you think. Here is a case in point, bigger 330mm discs fitted using caliper adapter plates give an apparent extra 20mm of disc. But on closer inspection the pads have beome incorrectly position and as a result the pads overhang the disc by around 5mm. Further inspection reveals the inner 15mm of swept disc area is not in …

as ive got loads i want to get done on the zed. Fit full s/s japspeed system, refurb the wheels to silver from black, ditch the high level spoiler and skirts and go smooth Then get started on re covering the interior grey alcantara with new stuff. But this poxy weather is holding things up. Please bring on the better warm weather quicker......

I have a clifford alarm on my Z - its an oldish one (white fob!) The indicators flash when alarm 'goes off' but siren doesn't sound. You can press the unlock button and it will reset the alarm, although it doesn't operate the locks. Finally, it doesn't seem to immobilise the car as I can start it without even touching the fob. The person I bought it off said it was some connection in the passenger door, but there seems to be a multitude of faults there. Control module or something? Is it hard to rip it all out and get another one fitted? :boat:

Question I have changed the side light bulbs set in the Fog lights to orange. Bought some Clear indicator side lenses. plugged the Indicator into the Large pod, then clear small bulbs in the smaller pod of the indicator lense, and connected these to the now orange side lights, so i have two sets one orange and one white. The white ones now being the legal side lights but should I keep the orange or make them white as well (legal wise)?? If that makes sense

I have just put together my engine stand which arrived today and im going to need the bolts to attach it to the block, im thinking 10x100mm if anyone knows for sure please let me know. Also because of the pipe on the rear of the engine, it seems to leave only 4 mounting points. Anyone with any pics of the rear of the engine on a stand will be great. Last question, will it rotate ok on the stand or will it try to swing out of control, is it best to have 2 people to do it. Many thanks Graham
