Hi all i am new on this forum, and think its an absolute haven for information regarding my new zed......and want to thank all you guys for doin such a great job, as id be lost without your knowledge base..

 

Ive not had my zed long it's J spec manual TT, and am well please exept minor idle problems and think my boost gauge is wrong sometimes..maybe in safety boost but dont know how to tell!!

 

I have bought a hks electronic boost gauge for my zed (never fitted one before), I have searched numerous forums to try and find the info i need but cant find anything, the installation instructions are in japanese, i have managed to work out what most of the wires do but cannot work out where the blue/red wire is connected to. It also has a vacume pipe connection which im sure i can tee it in somewhere under the bonnet (what would be the best place?)

 

so far i think i have worked out the following from the japanese instructions, but not sure if im right..(does anyone here read japanese please :bow: )

 

RED : IGNITION

 

YELLOW : BATTERY +

 

ORANGE : ILLUMINATION

 

BLACK : GROUND

 

BLUE : ???????

 

I have included some pictures for you to see of the instructions and wires, please help im desperate to fit this as my standard boost gauge is sometimes displaying wrong i think.

 

You will find links to HKS instructions (etc) on my site, down the bottom of this page http://www.300zx.org.uk/tech_18.htm

 

Hopefully should be what you need.

Sorry to hijack but I have one of these in my new Z but it does not light up when I turn on my lights. It was in the car when I bought it so I dont know anything about it. My question is should it light up at night. Its a little different from the one pictured, it has a black face and not buttons or nobs on it. Thanks.

bulb ?
