Jeff, did you know of your opposite number in Texas? Edit: NO Links to US Parts providers, as we already have an Authorised US Trader. :)

Right, this has been going on for a long long time now, have a miss-fire which i just can't shift... New plugs, cleaned all connectors, checked and corrected timing, replaced coil packs, replaced almost every vac/fuel pipe, plus many other general tidy/renewing type things... Revs fine when not under load, but, think it isn't as smooth as it should be, and when driving, put ya foot down, all noise no go, (just fitted new clutch too, not slipping) no torque and pathetic at low revs, and misses/back fires, so i'm ok that it's fuelling, seems to be a spark issue... Also tho, does seem to behave a bit better afetr about 3500 revs, when the engine gets a bit of momen…

Hey everyone im thinking about getting new intercoolers installed when I have the engine swap done. I was just wondering what types of experience you guys have with front mounts opposed to the side mount ones. Im looking at these as they seem to be a good price. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Godspeed-90-96-300zx-z32-turbo-s-mount-intercooler-kit_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp3286Q2ec0Q2em14QQhashZitem2ea7a9ab63QQitemZ200381410147QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories Any advice?

Hi all. Does anybody know where I can get a re-con steering rack? Cheers Stu

Hello again guys! Thoughts on the below? Partial service history inc Cambelt change at 112k. Clicky With Z's is it pretty much always a case of going to have a look at the general condition? This guy lives in West Sussex which is over 3 hours from me! Cheers Alex:D

Was just wondering do the alloys on a classic shape impreza have the same fitment as the zed?

Hi all, I've not posted on here since joining the forum, despite there being a newbies section, but felt the need to let you all know what I'm doing to the '91 UK Z32 TT I bought at the weekend. To be honest, she's a bit of a shed, but I'm determined to get her looking and performing well. She's got an idle problem which sounds a bit like a misfire...possibly due a fuel leak (I can smell fuel). In addition to running the diagnostics and checking for leaks, I'm getting my mate Matt (who will probably be using this forum ID to ask for help) to service my car and give her a good going over. He occassionally helps out at an MX5 specialist, so knows all about those,…

Hi people, Just a quickie, my clutch thrust bearing (i think) is whirring when not pressed down, press clutch in and it quietens a little, put her into gear and it stops. Will my clutch fail in an instant or will it get worse over time and gradually fail? Just trying to gauge as to when to get it done. Cheers all, Al.

As pic was gonna fit these but there wasn't room behind the door cards for them. May be of use to someone for another car. just pay postage costs that's all i'm after. These sell for about £8 on ebay inner dia. 145mm outer dia. 185mm 18mm mdf

Despite my efforts seem unable to locate any forums or clubs for zeds in Portugal, I know there must be some as each time I go I see zeds there, as I am off there next week would be good to see if I can meet up with some guys. Does anyone know or have any links. Thanks in advance Jeff TT

Hi Guys Currently have Eibach lowering springs, with Koni adjustable shocks. Have since had a bodykit fitted, with a strosec front bumper, this has made the car look lower at the front, about 70mm off the ground. The trouble is the front is hitting slight bumps so plan on bitting the bullet and fitting Tein suspension, with EDFC. the question is which sort ?? They do two sorts Super Street with upper mounts and Mono Flex, the Mono flex looks more for track than street. I do not plan on using it as a track car, more of show car. I already have stillen roll bars adjustable tension rods and a BIG set of AP brakes. Which Tein setup would you recommend? …

hey folks im just putting my engine back in and neede to know which way the oil cooler pipes go round the only ones i didnt mark. there is the one from the sump and the one from the filter block. The metal pipes on the car side have one on top of the other would be good if someone could tell me which one goes on top cheers Marty

Thought i would keep this seperate from my other one as i dont want them all becoming confusing. Those people with built engines, what sort of warranty did you get? What sort of warranty would you expect from a expensive re-build? My brother has just had his RX7 rebuilt, it came with a 3 year warranty or 50,000 mile what ever comes first.

The sound of the gerbox no i want to know the finish sound where are located?

...one to each side of the fuel rail? :rolleyes:

I have a 1990 TT and have seen on an Aussie site that the 95 model fuel rail seems to be in some demand - did it change for the better in the 95 model TT? :o

Hi, I have been talking to a colleague (race car engine builder) who has some experience with the VG30 TT engine and he is telling me that the stock injectors are only good for 420hp/330kw max (at 6000rpm) - if we want more then it's fuel rail/bigger injector time - is that a true'ish statement guys? :o

Hi, I am after a list of Garages and engine builders who are capable of building a high spec 300zx. I'm sure some may question why I am asking and what the score is with me and my car but i am not at libity to say at the moment. I will just say it is one big mess which needs action taking. I really need to underline that this will be a very big spec 300zx and looking at running allot of power. No dis-respect to any other garages but i need recomendation of garages/builders who are up to the job. Someone who would take on a project that has already been started and seeing it through to completion. Ideally a garage with a full set of services, from …

hi im new to the car i got a fresh import last night , drove over 400 miles to get it , but i havnt got a clue why 1, its in kph which is a pain in the arse at the mo ( i understand this but is it as simple as taking the old kph out and pick up a mph of ebay and replace it , the car is a 1996) 2, not sure why i have to wait for the little computer to count down till it hits zero to take the key out , its very annoying (what is it for etc) 3 and the power and hold button if anyone can shed light on the situation it would be great thanks.
