Hello guys

 

My name is Frederico and live in portugal.

I'm a proud owner of a 1992 z32 TT that i have dreamed about for many years until i worked hard at night for 2 years to save euros to buy one.

The seller was a complete "#$"#%$"#% person as took advantage of my lack of knoledge on this car and mechanics and now i think i'm stuck with a car with problems and litle resources to solve them.

 

I joined this forum in hope that i can get some help on what to do with the means i have.

 

Besides all i wish all the best to every1 on this comunity!

Hi, welcome to the club and sorry to hear about your problems with the car, you have come to the right place for help, if you have any questions, ask away.

All the best

Graham

I'll try to make a decent post about my problems tomorrow in the morning - i'm reading tech and help section on forum now and also i need to go to sleep in less than 1 hour.

Thanks a lot for the help ofered! :)

I like the rear bumper mod, different, looks like a nice motor, but obviously you cant see what problems lie beneath

My plan is and will be to have a as mint as possible car to keep with me for many years.

I have had my youth with moded hondas but now at 34 of age i just want to live 1 dream - to have a as best as possible stock 300zxtt that i can rely and enjoy until my kid can drive. :)

 

I have several issues that need adress for shure and i'm counting you you guys to help me solve them - i'll make my work reading and not trying to be taken by hand from you, just my knoledge on car is very basic and mechanics are not for me really.

 

I mean i know what is inside an engine and how it operates in a rookie view, i made ecu tunes for my other honda cars in the past (na and turbo) but nothing else. I dont assemble engines nor i want to do it ...

 

But now i have a limited budget to solve my problems.... next weekend i'll mesure compression on all 6 cyl and try to figure out if the block has any bad sound.

So far what i think is that i may have something in the heads that cause a metalic noise and maybe need a new clutch.

 

Dont really know so far....

I have the car for almost 1 month now.

Read mod was done by previous owner and also rims are those oz ultraleguera or something 17" but i really wanted the stock ones....

 

I only have put new spark plugs (factory ones), 4L of motul 300v 15w50 and rebuild alternator as my steering pump is leaking and killed the distributor.

Prev post i mean alternator not distributor...

 

Also i have ordered the cable to be able to use the Conzult software - i have just known a guy here that owns a 92 for 4 years now and he'll give me a copy of the diagnostic software.

This guy seems very nice person and he's rebuilding his engine all forged and stuff to be able to run something like 600-700hp but i think he's insane... as he's mechanic he doesn't have time now to help me but well... i'll try to talk to him about my car and see if he can get some time to take a look.

welcome :D where in Portugal are you? (im also portuguese :tt2:) hope you get your problems sorted out....i know what you mean by "having to work hard to buy one" those cars in portugal are way too expensive compared to prices here

welcome mate . im also portuguese if you can give me your phone number please ( fixo se faz favor )

Welcome to the club. If you have any questions just ask, we are a friendly helpful bunch.

:alien:

 

Very nice to notice we have several tugas in the forum.

Always makes things maybe a litle more easy.

 

Just want to make shure people understand this: i had my share of racerlike time, now i only seek to repair and maintain this car cause the fact that i bought it was a mere passion buy with keeping always in mind.

No crazy power mods, no blablabla, just a link to conzult and a nice stock well preserved lady.

 

Thanks for the ofered help! ;)
