sport seat, help bracket mount.
Get some universal frames that fit the seat, then chop and weld extra bits on so it can slot in the existing 300zx subframe slots. Or Buy the frame fit it to the seat and Drill new holes through the floor!

Boost controller basics.
Boost Controller is electric so will be overriding the Boost Valve and doing it Electronically so you shouldnt have to mess around! Although make sure the Valve is pretty open as well :) Everyone i know thinks its awesome how i can potter around town and then at the click of a button turn a nice easy riding car into a Ferocious BEAST!!! lol! if they have a problem tell them to have fun popping their bonnet to adjust the valve by an unknown amount where you have a super precise way of adjusting boost and Gain etc. Widly prices due to functions, functionality and Badges! If its got a huge Greddy logo on it it will be more. Best staying safe with something like boost as if its mis-reading you can be in BIG trouble. Best bang for buck seems to be Greddy Profec B 2 with most settings and at around 200quid! I personally have this among many others and is pi*s easy to use and serves is purpose fully http://300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=129766 Posted some boost controller settings up if you need a baseline! be aware its Setup and Engine Condition dependant!

Greddy Profec B2 Boost Controller Info needed
I have the Greddy Profec B2 and shared my settings with Cburto and they worked well for him (although his were in PSI and i work with BAR) lol Here's mine its profecB 2 and im running JWT Ecu, Zorst and filter (Custom management soon though) Low Boost (around town boost) setting: Gain - 15% (slow and gradual) Set Gain - 0.3bar (only 5psi but you dont need boost pottering around town) Max - 0.35 (no need to go into major boost if you do give it some welly) Warning - L.15% (this Cuts the boost by 15% so will go back to 0.3 your holding boost) Peak - This is the highest recorded boost you have hit Peak On/off - Have it On just so you can see your not overboosting although more for High Boost High boost settings: Gain - 28% (Fast spool up big kick but runs out of puff around 5300 so you dont high rev) Set Gain - 0.8bar (12psi as i dont want to be maxing out my Injectors everytime i boost and Cause everything to go Super Lean and then Bang) Max - 0.9bar (as explained above) Warning - L.15% (will cut me back to 0.8 bar which is reasonably safe) Peak - My highest recorded is 0.97bar and Injectors are Maxed at 1.00 Peak on/off = ON This is a good starting point, had these settings on the Rolllers and Coughed out just shy of 350bhp at the fly with no issues what so ever!Obviously still had another few PSI to go higher on boost if i wanted to but id rather be safe than sorry for Bhp Figures! guy was really happy with everything said Dont change a thing :) Cburto said he was getting his on the rollers at some point and will obviously adjust the Settings if needed so will be good to see his results Please be aware that if your car explodes (pretty safe settings o you should be fine) i will not be held responsible and these are Car Setup and Engine Condition Dependant as my engine only has like 50k and New Turbos) (Said that just to cover my own arse in case but you will be fine)

Cars going on the dyno, what should I expect?
What was your score?
-
restricted
ECU will restircit it! When plugging into to Console just set the max speed to 240mph :) Then you can try and reach your new Maximum :)

Should I sell the Z and buy an MR2?
Could always get this? http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1176519.htm

45k for an R8
if you can afford an 100k car why not spend 3k repairing it and then resell it with another 20-30k on top or what he is currently asking? Suspicious id say!
-
Should I sell the Z and buy an MR2?
i know that the Mk2 Old revisions (Rev1and2) were deadly and the suspension was all sorted out on the Rev 3onwards! So if you want some real slidey fun get the older REv but seeing as its a Mid-engined little car it will have great Weight Distribution so may not be so much fun. Get an old Jap car and shove a CA18DET (s13) engine into it and youll laugh your arse off

Cars going on the dyno, what should I expect?
Most of us on the NW RR day hit around 330 at the fly!Although i got mine re-done and i few others and 2nd time round we all got another 20bhp! Mine was 348 at the fly and cant remember at the wheels around 300 though! But i only ran 12.5psi as i like to be safe :D Prepare to be Surprised :)

Strange buzzing sound??
Fuel pump engages on when Ignition is on (before starting) also could be battery ticking on (sound will be clearer coming from under car than through a metal bonnet)

ABS Warning light, how to fix it ???
Take the Bulb out :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Intermittent steering shake under braking??
You trust the only thing stopping you from smashing into every Tree, River and house to Cheap Ebay Crap?? Your either very silly or very brave :tongue: If you know they are cheap ebay crap and all else looks fine i would say Look There! Turbo Spec Disc n pads are only like 200quid
-
What to do?
or just buy a pair of shagged T28 Turbos send them shaft etc to be rebalanced and scrap the housing of em and put those in your Zed turbos :) If you do this you wont be able to run alot of boost as your Injectors will be going OTT!! Do these run a small amount of boost then when money permits some larger injectors (and ECU) and you will be laughing

Exhaust advice
You can always go to an Exhuast place e.g. Powerflow and get a custom one done think they charge around 4-500quid all in and you can select different looks, and Level of noise so it can be reasonably quiet but with a nice grumble or like a Saxo :)
