Huge joint Tri-area RR day...anyone interested?
I'll attend

Petrol station
Always had same issue with all makes of Imports I've had. Its to do with the different pump nozzle sizes they use, ours are thicker and so dont go in far enough to push the flap open properly. The trick is to find the right angle, dont put it in so far, and don't squeeze the trigger all the way.

It's back!
Very Impressive ! These are the new SP-90's (biggest turbo kit available for the 300zx) ? Look forward to hearing your impressions on the power delivery after turning. Car exterior looks great as well, what are those wheels ? You need to post up your full spec list, you have done a LOT to that car and Im sure most dont realise just how much.

A VERY sad looking '96 Zed
There is some potential for breaking Brakes - 250 Manual conversion kit - 500-700 Engine - 300-500 Spoiler - 100 MAF - 100 (maybe damaged in accident) Add in an extra few hundred for odd pieces here and there and you could get 1500-2000 for it

Another day, another problem!
Possibly MAF problems, although nothing to do with the mesh, that has no affect. You can remove that if your concerned about it coming of and entering the intake. Typical MAF fault symptoms are that it wont allow you to rev past 2500-3000rpm. If it sounds "lumpy" at idle and through the rpm range, then you may be experiencing a missfire from 1 or more cylinders due to PTU, wiring, coilpack connectors, injector connectors..etc

!996 ish Toyota Celica
Hi Tony, I had a 97 Celica 2.0 GT for a while. Was very reliable, lovely car to drive, quick (170hp) and great handling. Well built too. The GT and lesser models dont really have much of a following, but the GT-Four has a big following. I used to own a 92 ST185 GT-Four about 10yrs ago as well. http://www.gt4oc.net/ http://www.gtfours.co.uk http://www.toyotaownersclub.com

Cosworth is Back
Cool. Thats if the 3 new teams make it to 2010, they've been accepted but getting a car ready in time would be another matter.

Remap
Most standard 300zx turbos on the dyno seem to make pretty close to the 280 figure. There are many problems that could cause power loss however, but Age/mileage is not a typical reason for any power loss from the VG, they stand up pretty well in old age.
-
Bumper Stoneguard.
Moulded in. You would want to start with something like a 200 (Im impatient so I would start with an 80, then regret it as I spend ages trying to smooth out the scratches lol) , and work up to about 1200.

few probs
Loose connection on your gauge temp sender. If you look at the enginebay, the metal water hardpipe inbetween the radiator and the engine you will see 2 sensors with connectors. Its the smaller connector (usually black) on the right. Check the contacts for corrosion and make sure it fits on tightly. It has no affect on the rest of the running of the car. idle issues could be so many things.

Christ; Lexus Soarers/SC300s are getting cheaper than Z32s now!
A friend bought a V8 for 800 last year. They dont really appeal to me, a kind of japanese Jag xjs. The blue and white one look pretty good above, but they dont look as good stock.
-
nice exhausts...
In every pic those wheels just look like they are really badly photoshopped on
-
Can anyone tell if this is a Z32 water pump ...
yes its a Z32 pump, but is it OEM ? Never fit a non-oem pump.

Front and rear speakers
Get some 6.5" front component speakers and a 10" subwoofer and Amp for the boot. You can get 6x4 JBL's for the rear that are a direct fit, although personally I wouldn't bother with the rears.
-
Why? is the 300zx manual gearbox so crap?
Although 500 ib/ft torque capability is less than a stock z box. That figure will be at the fly, and Mac's is on about 650-700 ib/ft fly. I quite fancy a a tremek/Borg warner T56 6speed box. They do lots of different versions though, with different ratios and power handing capablities, all from different vehicles.

OEM Accessories Prices
ahh, ok that kinda makes sense. Only ever seen the cream interior in the Convertible.

OEM Accessories Prices
very interesting, thanks Dave. Odd how they list the folding mirors as an option, but they were standard items. and I dont get the tonneau cover bit for the vert :confused: Is'nt a Tonneau cover something that you would put over the folded down roof ? If so, thats standard, in fact you could'nt have it any other way as its all part of the mechanism and body panels.
