Black-zed

hi all got a whine from the engine on the drivers side, i think it's either alternator bearings or power steering pump, would i be right in thinking alternator is most probable cause?

myguess is flasher relay the leds arn't drawinf enough power to trigger the standard unit

this is what i currently have on my zed 19's not sure of rim sizes though could be 8.5/9.5 or 8 &9 but there are similar wheels to these on ebay circa £500/£600 mark

just renewed my membership for the year paypal transaction i.d. LS354764P392281H will show as payment from high energy promotions. cheers guys

slight correction below

i know royal mail prices gone up but not that much although could be sending by courier depending on the deal he has with them on pricing, my advice would be try mjp had dealings with luke once which was not a pleasant experience to be fair so never use him anymore.

there you go fella http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?137368-Repair-window-module

i couldn't fimd a dry joint in mine so i resoldered the whole thing to be on the safe side, it never worked straight away but used the switch a few times heard a couple of clicks at first then it came back to life, found a dodgy connection all clead and sprayed with wd40 now so fingers crossed

already checked that had the window module out and checked that also seems i have a loose connection it's all come back to life now

my passenger side electric window has decided not to work, have check voltage to the swith and to the middle pin of the multi plug i have 12v but nothing is working are there any fuses for the electric windows or is the problem likely to be something else?

no shouldn't be any play as far as i'm aware it was pointed out on my white zed a couple of years ago, could be arms or hicas ball joints

well the dc to dc board says it supports 12v to 32v input so guess should be ok, psu you indiscated is a 20pin so not suitable cant seem to find anything 12pin out there, would love to have system auto shutdown but finding a suitable psu is a nightmare

hi all looking for some info on what i need, i've just bought a artigo a100 mini pc to use in the zed as the base for my carputer, also got the screen etc but i know the artigo has a dc to dc psu built in but i dont think this will suitable for use in car to protect from charges surges etc (correct me if i'm wrong) but being a pico itx board it only uses a 12 pin power connector and all the in car psu's i'm finding are 20/24 pin any ideas out there?

i can remember when i first joined my first meet was weston super mare not many of us there think it was yowser, greg,yami, mr rogers, pj & myself but the area grew to some great meets in a 12month period think the best 2 were one at cirencester arranged by allan (gruntpa) and the ross on wye meet organised by allan & myself, it's a sad day for the area but i think escallating fuel prices arn't helping, i'm determined to put more miles on the zed than last year, just checked my m.o.t. and only did 750 miles in 12 months!!!!! i'm sure someone else will step up to the fold we've had some good meets in the past and i'm sure we can again in the future

as above just got back from the test station today was mot day for the zed and it cost all of £2.40 for a number plate lamp to get it through :clap::thumbup1::clap: looks i'm set for another year of zedding!

yes can take at least 500 miles to clear after replacing pcv's took me most of the time the zed was on the road last year to clear the smoke (i only did 650 miles last year)

hi dave i have 19's on mine 8.5" on the front 9.5" on the rear et 30 & 35 from memory my tyres are 265 on the rear 245 on the fronts got the car lowered 20mm and have no problems with rubbing etc but 20's wouldn't be a good idea on a zed i think my tyres are 265/30/19 & 245/35/19 to fit 20's you would be increasing the ride height of the car and rolling circumferance of the wheels which the n affects speedo readings etc

i placed a bid at £145 and got out bid funnily the winner has a zero rating always makes me wonder if it's been bidded up by a fake account

cool handy to know although don't understand readings but i don't think the rears will adjust enoughi've currently got -1degree 41 and -1degree 56 on my rear camber

just had the zed taken in to have the 4 wheel tracking done today and they said my front & rear camber are out (i know about it as i lowered the car but not fitted adjustable arms yet) anyway they said rear was adjustable. according to their computer the rear camber arm is on a concentric bush making it adjustable, they couldn't do it as they couldn't shift the bolt but is this so on standard zed suspension? i always thought rear was fixed thats why we have to buy adjustable camber arms

brilliant thanks jeff gives me another optioneverything else work except left pod and fan but that could be down to accessory relay also maybe? radio works fine

hi all still got this electrical problem with the zed the left pod (wipers/heater) all just go dead randomly it was mentioned on here before it could be the start of the fusebox getting wet, well tonight i've had the kick panel out dumped a load of water down the targa drain and interior and carpets are all bone dry so i think my alarm could be going faulty i've got a toad ai606 fitted cat 1 now am i right in thinking cat one alarms imobilise starter and accessory circuits? it is doing starnge things like the led stays on constant with ignition off (it never used to) and i can hear the relays clicking out so before i go and rip it out/bypass it just looking for ideas on here.

no i'm in gloucestershire

think it maybe another job to get checked when i find time to get to zedworld

it is strange hear blower stopped last year then started again and never had another problem, i've just been out and tipped some water down both targa drains the front one seems to be flowing through just behind the front wheel and the rear one just by the back of the door i thought the rear drain was further back
