Hi everyone, ive only been out for a couple of drives in my new 300zx and it is incredible. I love it!

 

However, the boost gauge goes from -7 to +7 but when i put my foot down it doesnt go above about +5? when its idling it is at -7 which i no is normal, but i no there has been a lot of chat on here about safety boost and im guessing thats what it is.

 

So long story short, how do i get the safety off!

 

thank you all in advance,

Depends to be honest mate, on what is causing it to be in safety boost mode. Mine slips in and out of safety mode due to the fact that my recirc valves are not working properly.

 

Likewise i had the wrong thermostat and this was causing the engine to not run hot enough which then caused it to kick into saftey mode.

 

If its an auto you can do an auto diagnostic check (do a search as full instructions are on here somewhere) that might give you a starting point to work from.

 

Really you probably want to get a diagniostic or Conzult check to give you more info. (there are many members on here with this software, who i am sure would help you out if you can get to them.)

 

Alternatively take it to Zedworld or some of the more reputable mechanics on here would i am sure be able to help giv eyou a better pictre.

 

Either way someone will be along with more knowledge than me to give more consise advice.

 

HTH

Thanks Pablito, do you think there is any harm in it running in safety boost mode? there doesnt seem to be any other problems with the car.
