Rang glynn hopkin (nissan chelmsford) and asked for the Series 2 PTU for my 300zx.

 

He said there will be multiple choices. he is glad to help me locate the part however as mine is an import he will not understand the japanese on the import parts.

 

What he said is "if you can find someone with a japanese chassis and has S2 ptu as standard then i can use that chassis number to find the part number and help you locate the part"

 

Obviously i can understand anyoen giving engine chassis a bit worried so what i thought is.... if someone does not know the part number i need can they ring up glynn hopkins. speak to parts department and give them the number so he can find the part for me.

 

I have rung them serveral times before and it sounds like there is only 1-2 guys there. If you explain to them that a member is tracking a S2 PTU loom for a import 300zx and that you have contacted them to provide help. this would help me out alot.

 

I can then ring up after and ask for them to order whatever part number needed is.

 

I would put the phone number down however cosidering the scams these days i think offering a numbe can sound dodgy and therefor locating the number yourself will "hopefully" make the caller feel more secure

cheers all

Can't help with the part number, but why don't you just go to MJP? He will be able to get it for you and you won't have the worry of being supplied the wrong part and it'll most likely be cheaper than buying direct from Nissan. It might even be a stock part.

 

IIRC, the part from Nissan direct is something like £600 - £700! But the conversion kit for the recalls offered from Nissan USA is a 3rd of this! Comes with wiring adaptor and mounting bracket. (this is the kit that MJP supply)

Infact, MJP is actually in Brentwood, so very close to you!

yes i have been there before :-)

 

see i bought a second hand PTU on here that needs soldering into the loom however i was told it would be simpler to get the loom from mjp and nissan which has the new plugs that will fit my PTU and plug into the system on the other ends.

 

Unfortunately i cannot find on ebay and thought as nissan was local i could get it sooner.

 

i'll call MJP

Just go through MJP mate. Nissan are great for getting stuff for an Almera or Micra, but specialist stuff they struggle with and still get funny regarding imports. Besides, Nissan parts are extortionate direct.

do you reckon my high speed split second engine missing is related to this PTU (possibly failing) or to my boost leaks i am trying to find?

I think a PTU from Nissan was about £360 last time I called them years ago.

Try MJP or DTA on here, MUCH cheaper and they actually know what the are talking about unlike Nissan who haven't a clue.

Multiple choices? LOL it's the same on them all.

i have the PTU already... not the loom :-)

i have what appears to be the old loom sticking out either side of the PTU and a diagram how to wire it in to my existing loom however i was told it is simpler getting the loom that goes from the car to the PTU S2 and plugging it straight in

Mate as I have already said the only place your going to find a piggy back loom for a s2 ptu is Us ebay.

 

Look, tenner!

And you can buy a s2ptu with loom for 50 quid GRR! lol

that one is for ptu s1?

Yeah you can't just order the loom on it's own I don't think other than ebay above.

that one is for ptu s1?

 

No it's not. There isn't a seperate loom for the Series 1 PTU :rolleyes:

yes but the plugs that go into the S2 PTU (which i have just bought used from member) are different to S1.

 

i want the S2 PTU loom so that i can plus the "normal" ends into the system and the PTU ends (which are different to s1) into my used S2 PTU

No that link is direct to the s2 piggy back loom you are on about, just plugs into the exisiting s1 plugs on your car.

 

simples!

 

The link i posted is what you want buy it! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! :headvswal :headvswal :headvswal

ahh i see. i was checking because it doesn not officaally say S2 piggy back.. i dont want to buy it. plug it into my car and only find it doesnt plug into the S2 PTU that i have bought but not fitted (still running S1 PTU)

Lol sorry got fustrated lol

 

yeah i know it doesnt say in the description but looks like the seller doesnt know what it is.

 

That is the adapter loom or piggy back loom you want, it plugs into the s1 plugs on your car and adapts them to the grey s2 plugs.

 

You can just make out the 4 plugs in the picture, if you look at the s2 ptu's for sale you can see most of them come with the same loom.

 

I'd be tempted to buy another s2 ptu for 50 quid, use the loom and sell the ptu on for profit lol

 

i only paid £30 for mine delivered when the £ was strong and they go for about 100 quid in the uk lol

Aaaaaaaaarrggghhhhhh! I give up :rofl:

ok i have bought the loom. However as you found the PTU you can go ahead and make the monies

 

:-)

 

nice one

The secret is out now lol

does this men i have to ask him how much to sell? looks like its gone wrong and i am now commited.....

you need to ask him how much it is to ship to the UK.

what would be a fair price for standard so that i know if he is asking too much....?

If you was to post it from the UK to the states it would cost about £5.00 he will put something on for the extra agg of sending it here so no more than $15.00.

 

Paul

ok cool
