Hi All,

 

Just thought I'd say hi!

 

Got my 1st 300zx tt (auto) about 4 weeks ago now, really love it as it has been a dream car since I first saw one when I was 10 years old lol! The car is beautiful and it turn so many heads.

 

It has however a couple of issues I wondered if anyone can help with:

 

When the weather is dry, the car runs perfect.... when it is damp, tbh its awful! When its damp, it idles at around 1500rpm and changes gears randomly and irratically. I have completed the auto diagnostic check which I found online and it came up with the throttle position sensor. Only issue I've got is I can't find a garage willing to work on the car in the local area to check this!

 

Does anyone know any good garages near Chorley / Preston / Bolton / Wigan that could help fix up the car and also give it a good check over? (There is also a slight vibration through the steering wheel when on the motorway so want this checking out aswell)

 

Any help would be great!

What shows that?

 

I'd love too but I was gonna take it down at 10am when he opens because I can get a lift back if I go early. My mates working in the afternoon though:no:

Thanks Gary... love it in Red. It needs a little touching up here and there but the paintwork isn't bad. Got the club stickers in the rear windows now as well!!:thumbup:

 

When it comes back from the garage, next thing is paintwork, lights (needs a rear centre pane; and front fogs) and refurb of the wheels!

 

Fitted a HID kit last week aswell, looks a lot better.

 

Dreading the drive down though.... think I need to stay on the motorway as long as possible. Town centre driving when its changing gears is a nightmare at the mo!!

Really like the seats you've got on the classifieds........... I'd defo have them. Just need to find out what the damage is from Lee first.

 

I actually bought a full set of leather seats of ebay in really good condition last month but never received them......... Just had to claim my money back. Looking at the guys feedback, hes sold 3 other expensive items in the last couple of weeks and no one received them!

They're priced to sell as I've got no room to store them so let me know ASAP. Lee will sort your zed, I was down there last week & he sorted a few niggles for me, & a one piece prop. He's got a big collection of Zeds down there now.

No he was in Aberdeen. They looked really nice... full set £150 + £20 postage. Ebay sorted it out quickly though. Mine look really tired... the original cloth ones with a nasty rip on the drivers seat

I hope so, he mentioned hes not the quickest but he said he'll sort it properly so I think it'll be there a couple of weeks?

I know he's really busy at the moment as you'll see tomorrow with the amount of Zeds there but your taking it the best place. I won't take mine anywhere else.
