I've fitted a new loom for a LHD, and can't seem to get the plugs for the AIV's to reach, however, they are no longer in use as they are bunged up on the exhaust, so leaving the plugs off wont make any difference? And, there is another plug, i'm pretty sure it's for the EGR solenoid, which i can't seem to find, so i have 2 grey 2 pin square connectors, and 1 black 2 pin square connector, which i presume is for the EGR solenoid, what would be the consequences of leaving them disconnected? EGR is still in place by the way... Cheers...

I am just about to get all my bits from the US they are being shipped on Friday :lol: I have a load of bits coming off the car that I will be selling on here as soon as the new bits are fitted. Some of the for sale adds on here seem to be more expensive than buying the stuff new :no: . Anyhows I need the room so what would you ask for this stuff to see it sold on here. I just literally want to sell the stuff, it is of no use to me so I will be realistic on prices. 19” Dare Hiro wheels with almost new Avon zz3 tyres Mint condition Rage racing seats slightly faded on the sides Alpine DVD flip screen head unit (quite nice)and crappy DVD player Devin ch…

Could not find the post of the person on ebay flogging the front nose with the Knight Rider bit bolted on.

Hi Guys, after just having my manual conversion delivered, I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread to let peeps know the weight of individual items from the 300zx, It would make it easier for us to estimate the shipping costs! I struggled to let the courier company know the exact weight of the parcel they were collecting for me, I guessed at 85kg for the full complete kit, eg manual box, flywheel, pedals, master & slave cylinder, prop shaft, some pipes and bolts, The company never asked for any more money so i assume the 85kg was a good guess. Just to add, It cost me £46 for the courier company to collect my gearbox pallet from Essex and deliver …

None of my interior lights are working at the moment so tonight after work I decided to investigate (in the dark - stupid I know). The main interior light looks like it will be solved with a simple bulb change as when I took the bulb out the cap fell off the end of it so it's well knackered anyway. I can't quite understand the map reading lights though. Using my multimeter I find no feed to the red/black wire which I imagine should be the live feed. Where does this feed come from? I've tried looking behind the panel behind the passenger seat with the light control relay but the only wire thats the same colour behind there goes to the relay which already seems to have a po…

Porbably the worst looking replica iv seen using a 300zx!! Looks totally crap and ruined a 300zx. Stupid :censored: lol Could of changed the headlights atleast, so no one would notice it was 300zx before. Whoever done it shud get :2guns:

The car ( a J-spec TT ) failed its MOT today and the garage proprietor , unbeknownst to me , ordered front discs ( non-Nissan parts ) at £110 . I`m not at all sure about the quality at that low price . My current ones are drilled and grooved ( and fubarred lol ) . The nearside caliper is binding too , another fail point . And apparently I need new pads even though the current ones are hardly used . Advice and recommendations please , maestros :blink:

I've done a search and can't find anything, although it must have been talked about before. Basically I'm in the middle of converting my rear centre panel to an illuminated one and the rear lights to '99 spec appearance, and its all going perfectly so far. However, the centre panel is a bit 'fusty' after being on the car for 19 years, I was wondering if there is any way to clean it up? One thought I had was with some REALLY fine wet and dry, then polish back up? Will this work without making it look worse? :saddam:

My arches have been done and the whole car is in primer, I went to the paint shop today to drop some chromed door fittings in so they can start getting on with the outside now the shuts have been done and fitted up again. The colour and finnish is absolutely amazing, under the bonnett was horrible it was spray can black, and where the brake and clutch had been leaking fluid it was rusty. They have welded up all the holes and filled them where we are relocating the power steering pump and fuse box etc. We decided on the new Lexus pearl colur and it is a real lovely bright white pearl.

is there an easy way to remove the bottom cam belt pulley

Hi, Am going to remove my AIV system & have the wings off so want to remove the whole lot including the upper tanks. I have seen all the removal instruction threads but on the drivers side tank is a larger diameter hose that dissapears through the inner wing & comes out somewhere under the brake servo - I can find no reference to this anywhere! Any ideas where it goes to? Not had a great deal of time to look as was at work & shutting up shop time! :biggrin: I know most people leave the tanks but if anyone knows would be grateful to know where it connects to! Paul

Having done a manual conversion there is a vibration around 2000 revs coming from under the car, then it goes. Changed the oil but still there, could i have connected the middle of the shaft together one wrong. i remember reading when rejoining it that they should have be marked so the when reconnected the balancing was maintained? Otherwise the is a 50/50 chance of it being the wrong around.

is there a race series that i can enter a zed into without having to spend stupid amounts of money on it? if so, can i have the details please. thanks in advance :thumbup1:

The drivers headlight (dipped)doesn't light properly and is dim and mainbeam doesn't work, is this likely to be the relay, fuse or another problem? i have tred a new earth but no change.

Two front wheel studs stripped on my 1990 Jap 300zx n/a. Nissan have told my garage they need chassis no's etc. etc. Are they all that different, or will any Series 1 studs do the job.(or even any newer models) ? Not happy about running with 3 studs on front wheel. Need some a.s.a.p. and get the impression that cos its an import they are trying to make it as difficult as they can. :censored: Thanks

Anyone able to tell me how to remove the exterior targa centre trim?
