Thanks LG, Thats what the guy sort of said, his gauges were reading okay, so he could only suggest some other part was causing the problem. I'll gen up on the AC this week and have a bash at fixing it. Cheers Ric

Cheers Mate, i'll take a look. Ric

Graham Thx Found plenty of threads but none that speak of changes necessary to accept new gas. I'll keep looking and try some of those diags on the aircon switch Rich

Thanks Dave, Thats Excellent. Cheers Ric

My Reply still stands, as i have no frame of reference. I'll stick to LG's method.. Ric

Hi Guys is there a picture of the engine bay showing a what's what, might be useful for me being new to the zed TT Cheers Rich

I'll check that LG They may be shorter , but shorter than What?....a 32" LCD Tv....

Well it doesn't but i PMSL which helped as i'm under heap big pressure at work today.. Thx dave Ric

cant get to my car at the moment, but i will later Any body got any recommendations on make of TV's? Ric

Hi Guys Is there any way to tell if i have a short shifter fitted? Cheers ric

Sorry guys, my fault, i meant a screen that could be "fitted" into the moulding, which shows the output from a PC. I dont mean a single DIN or Double DIN device. Cheers

Can any one tell me what is the largest possible screen that anyone has installed in the radio surround moulding? looks like 7" might be the max.. Rich

Had a guy round last night to re gas the system, he did the usual, emptied the R12 (600g)?? took out moisture, put in R24, after everything was sorted the guages were reading fine, but the output was not cold, 30deg. As the gauges were reading okay, he couldn't diagnose the problem with his big book!! Any one got any ideas? Rich

Thanks Legrath, where can i get these boss's from,? will any boss advertised as being for a 300zx have the necessary bits to work? Ric

Hi I've read a few posts on here that say putting on aftermarket steering wheels can effect the HICAS. The answer seems to be to fit the proper Boss. Can someone clarify the situation and explain why it causes the HICAS to play up. Cheers Ric

Good idea chris, get a naff set to practice on. I've seen a kit for $40 somewhere and some replacement units in the usa which work out at £120, here's the £120 set http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170366267733&viewitem=#ht_5532wt_1165 Here's the kit http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NISSAN-300ZX-CLEAR-TAIL-LIGHT-DIY-CONVERSION-KIT-Z32_W0QQitemZ200370015103QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item2ea6fbcb7f&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245#ht_803wt_1165 What do you think? Ric

Thanks Chris, i take it this is the mod that some people moan about for removing the lenses in the oven Rich ps do you know lisa's handle

Hi What options have i got to update my rear std lights, without shelling out £300 for a set of brand new ones. If seen a few posts but nothing definite on how to do it, what to use or a kit to buy? thx all Ric

thats really impressive...how much do you want for it... Ric

Willie You didn't say before, when you mentioned the menu system, were you referring to doing different button pushes or is there another way to access it? rich

Hi Willie, thanks for that, gives me some places to look. You mention menu access.. how do you do that,is it the button pushing bit or am i missing something. do you have detectors in the cabin to detect the movement, 'cos i dont, maybe it wasn't bought with that option. If i can figure out how to switch off the interior light part i would, rang our local clifford dealer and he wants £9.99 for a wiring diagram. couldn't find anything on the site, its now Gap Security, they're the ones charging £150... Ah Well, keep trying... Rich

Thanks Willie, but been there done that. Its really frustrating (the position is centre for door switch use) sometimes it works so i arm the car, then in the middle of the night (normally) whatever is happening , happens and the light comes on, clifford alarm thinks, hello, someones broke in and opened a door, i'd better make a racket, and boy what a racket!! I've spoken to a clifford dealer who charges £150 for a call out. I'm trying to solve it myself first..if only i could find the alarm box.... rich

Thanks all, i'll give it a good clean first and see if its any better. Legrath, Thanks for clearing up the bulb type as well. ric

According to autobulbs data, both the dipped beam bulb and the main beam bulb are H1, my local auto shop also say this, however i have read on this site that they are H3 or H3c, with a mod to the former to make it similar to the latter (I think) Can someone please put me right as i need to improve the main beam output as its like driving with a candle. (i already have HID on the dipp) ric
