Saw a Red Zed parked up in Dunstable today, and a Black/dark grey LHD zed in London today on the A40 (I think)

Looking for a pair of front brake calipers for my 96 NA import. will TT calipers fit what sort of price should i be paying? where can i get a refurb kit from with maybe new pistons??? All help greatly appreciated :bow:

Im trying to help out Marv 300, manual TT. Starts fine, but boost will not go past zero, have checked pipes and all appear good. Ecu comes up with error code 13. Temp sensor. If this is shagged would it cause no boost or what else to look at??????

Went to Zedworld today for a conzult/health check. Just to add my recommendation (to the many) to anyone needing work done its worth the trip. Great set up, facilites and knowledgeable staff.

Will a tt manual box fit a non turbo manual engine without the need to swap anything over?

Had a bit of a disaster last night putting them on LOL got 3 of them on no problems then the last rear wouldnt fit :wack: tried everything but nope woldnt go on, took it off and the hub was bigger than the wheel centre :mad: so 10 minutes of head scratching, took the other rear off which fit fine only to realise it still had a spiggot ring on :smash: it was the same colour as the rims so blended right in and you couldnt tell it was there, anyway managed to get it out and rims fit fine then :hyper: Still think i need to space the fronts out to fill the arches a bit more but the rears fill out very nicely indeed. The wheels are Rota GTR drift 8.5" fronts ET30 with…

Gray 300zx with large vented front wings and one tail pipe!!!!

Hi all, Im going to be spraying my Brembo calipers soon but cant really decide onwhat colour to spray them, Do i keep with the Gold or go with something different. I want them to stand out but also look great with the car. P.S My new wheels have a Black centre with a chrome lip not as pic. What do you guys think i should do???

Why does the 1993 zx have a better 0-60 and quater mile than the other zx's? I have seen these results in quite a few places now. could it be to do with weight?? 300zx 1991 Nissan 300ZX N/A 2+2 7.5 15.90 1990 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo 5.6 14.10 1992 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo 5.7 14.20 1993 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo 5.2 13.80 1994 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo 6.0 14.40 1995 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo 5.5 13.90 Good to see they got under the 14sec mark in stock form :) Supras 1993 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo 4.9 13.40 1994 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo 5.3 13.70 1995 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo 5.1 13.50 1997 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo 5.1 13.60 …

Hi Managed to grab some time today to try and figure how/where to mount the Aeromotive FPR and filter - finally decided to mount them to the passenger side engine skin as below. I fabricated the filter bracket from the original fuel filter bracket lol. It will get powder coated or chromed. Just polished currently. Works out quite well as the fuel supply comes UP nicely into the filter - exits filter via a a 35 degree 8AN - then into an 8AN/2 x 6AN splitter that will then loop out to the fuel rails. (Parallel feed) - then exit from the rails back to the two 6AN' on the FPR and out the bottom back to the fuel return/tank. Sweet. Any comment…

Hi , sorry if this is a daft question, but is the PTU from a twin turbo the same as one from a N/A?? And if you dont know what a PTU is ,As I didn`t ,2 mins ago i looked up it stands for `Power Transistor Unit` Thanks Darren.

Never seen green before-is it stock and rare or a re-spray? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1995-NISSAN-300zx-GREEN_W0QQitemZ230388843687QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAutomobiles_UK?hash=item35a43ec4a7#ht_500wt_967

As above, i am quite pleased with myself. Having no experience in car maintenance, I managed to swap out the rear speaker housing brackets (having to remove all the boot trim) and put in a couple of custom built ones which mean i now have bigger speakers in the back, without losing any boot space.. :D I also swapped out the old broken aerial with a new one, so now i get proper radio reception. And.. i only had time for one, but i managed to take off the passenger door card and changed the speaker up there as well. Next on the list is the other door, and then the steering wheel, but i have to go to work now so some other time. Thanks to all you wh…

Seen a 2+2 Silver J-Spec heading northbound on the A1, outside Torness Power Station, at about 16:30. Looked very nice for the short period of time i seen it. De-spoilered, Perspex strip and quad tailpiped exhausts. Anyone on here?

Seen it a number of times. Has anthracite Nurburgrings on it. Looks pretty clean.

Yet another first time pass for my trusty NA Zed - not even any advisories:hyper:

Have a look at this site http://www.auto-performance.co.uk anyone used them before?

Probably all seen it, but is this proof that cars are getting slower? Love the cossie and the golf, shame about the 205 and the MR2 and the TT does the job at the end. I got love for you if you were born in the 80's :dance:

I am getting water into the car through the targa/door window join. have replaced targa rubbers but no better. Can see that inside the 'A' pillar rubber there is a hole which no doubt allows water to drain though the rubber. Is this correct & what's the easiest way to clear out any blockages?

How easy/hard is it to swap a like for like steering wheel on a jap auto TT? Do i need any special tools? Anybody got a step by step guide that can explain it to an idiot? Does the cruise control pose any issues? Mine is a bit tatty and i've got a new one waiting to go in. Ta
