amongst other stuff the top mountings and position of cap TT: http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/vbgarage.php?do=popup&image=http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/vbgarage.php?do=getimage&id=5961 NA: http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/vbgarage.php?do=popup&image=http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/vbgarage.php?do=getimage&id=5962

that would probably be me .

trying to find the aircon ECU, could someone tell me exactly where to find it, and how to get to it,maybe a diagram or picture? i thought it was in the driver footwell somewhere but can't find it. thanks ian

i'm thinking of coming along, not sure i will bother with the rollers tho

the japanese translation is good enough to make most of it understandable but it's still hard to read. seems to be some very nice stuff on there though

hmmm, used that link and it helpfully told me it had translated the site from spanish. but displayed it still in Japanese, after managing to translate it from japanese to english it told me : The tray you do not go to bed and do business!!

where is Chafford Hundred ?

tell us more........ its not like the tent fits in the zed, well not without removing most of the speakers

1. Scotty 2. Athene + 1 3. Legrath + 1 4. Z32dave - provisional 5. Old Zed 6. ianl - definate for one day, probably ok for weekend but depends on work

i got mine, all looks very nice, i was reading the instruction manual, not something i usually do, there is a graph of max weight against height of jack. it apears that when the jack is at a height of 12cm (my sills jack point being 12cm off the floor) it's lifting capacity is zero. at the point where it starts to lift my wheel of the ground its capacity is still well under 500kg it also states " overloading is forbidden"......seems to lift the car ok though :) .

Add to this list (cut&paste):- 1) Z32dave - 28July/4Aug/11Aug/18Aug/24Aug 2) 300zx_girl - 18Aug/24Aug 3) mattymoo - 24Aug 4) ianl - will have to check work diary tommorow but all dates except 11th seem ok from memory

is it too late to get one as well, do i just paypal him? .

so how heavy is a 300 zx ? .

perhaps we could arrange a south central meet specifically for this?

afaik all the additional amplifier units in the different models were designed to run off speaker level the amp in the uk spec lwb is under the plastic trim over the suspention turret on the drivers side in the boot the only other option i know of is the combined speaker / amp units but i guess having replaced the speakers it can't be that 3 reasons not to use the inbuilt amp: it is probably to low a power for your new more modern speakers the gain added to a modern high power headunit will probably give too high a volume compared to the front speakers and may clip the inline amp giving distorted sounds and leading to speaker damage some of the inline amp / speaker systems were designed by Bose who used a much lower impedance of speakers and amplifiers than everyone else. mixing standard impedance kit with Bose low impedance kit can give a nasty sound. some or none of these may be relevant and it depends on how fussy you are about audio quality and what you are going to be listening to and at what volume. I work with high end PA systems and am slightly deaf so i like it very loud and as good a sound as possible

if the connector looksfrom the wire side like: latch dark green L+ R+ grey L- R- then dark green is +ve feed to external amp and grey is ground to external amp if swb look under the trim to the passenger side of the rear shelf and you might find the amp, best bet is to bypass the amp with new speaker wires from head unit to speakers, otherwise connect the grey to ground and the green to the switched output of the headunit

what did the car have as a stereo before you started , original nissan? 1 or 2 units? is there a cd remote control built in the centre collum storage bit? is it a swb? what year?

yes, unless i'm working

i'm a very likely, but very busy this week, will let you know next week if thats ok

i have one of those keyfobs with mine , it doesnt do anything, presumably because i have an aftermarket UK alarm / imobiliser fitted. i was under the impression that the Jap keyfobs used a frequency that wasn't legal in this country, I think the reciever is under the wooden pannel in the passenger footwell possibly (complete guess) this as it doesnt seem to be anything to do with my stereo:

think that was opposite lock .

turn the aircon on with the auto button, then press the econ button to turn off the aircon compressor

does this make them sound better, should i do it in mine?

i should be able to make this too :)
