calibra eco tech problems
Have you checked for any fault codes stored on the ECU?

clear fog lights
It's not hard to do. Either that or you could get JDM fogs on there.

why?
I've seen people do FAR WORSE stuff to a Z32, some on this forum! :wack:

Black SWB ADZ*** nr Highbridge
300ZX decal on the doors and a mid height spoiler. Sure I've spotted this before.

Monster Z
:rofl: Rest is cool, just the body styling is questionable. Would love to have a complete spec sheet for the mechanicals!

Day 2 of questions!
So you have smoke on warm up? Could be one of 2 things. Either valve stem oil seals are passing a bit of lube, or you're getting a bit of blow back through the pistons and it's sitting in the inlet manifold.

Viper wings are ugly. Don't care who they are made by! The skirts just look like a couple chunks of wood has been nailed to the sills and as for the rear spoiler. :hurl: Don't mind the front bumper so much.

Questionable styling, but interesting engine. Shame there's no real spec on it.

Piston over bore
You've stuck you 'V6 3000' strip on the wrong way round.

Possible overheating with wisps of smoke
A chip won't give you a power increase. Has your dip stick popped out of its tube?

Car just won't start!!!
So it's not even turning over but you can hear everything else working? Low battery charge. Jump it from another car. They take a lot of power to kick the solenoids into action on the starter.

Hi all, bought a new Zed last week...
Shame about the rear lights, but the car looks very clean. Nice purchase. :)
-
So much smoother!
Cheers. Yeah, it should do. Last time I hooked it up, it showed a lazy o2 sensor and a TPS that needed adjusting. Actually I replaced that too and set it up. So all should be spot on now. :)

The pain of Z ownership
Jesus Richard! How the hell did you crack a rib!?!? Luckily I've never broken a bone in my body! Been pretty lucky.

Maybe New car
Think you'd get bored of that extremely quickly.

Hiya, O2 sensors (OEM) £230+ the pair Coolant temperature sensor £30 Plugs £60 O2 sensors I actually got from Mario who had 2 new OEM ones that he didn't want and I got them for £120 for both, so was very lucky. Just don't trust universal type sensors as they don't always have the same components for the tips and use different metallic substances in their makeup.

Rolling Road List! 26th September @ Circuit Motors, Castle Combe
Date has changed! Might come then. Not 100% sure I'll run it on the dyno.

So much smoother!
Certainly am! Although I want to double check on conzult to make sure everything is reading correctly before doing that.
-
So much smoother!
Forgot to mention, we did the AIV delete too! So got rid of a load of unwanted detritus from the engine bay!

So much smoother!
Today thought it would be high time to do a bit of maintenance. I've had 2 new o2 sensors and a new coolant temp sensor (ECU) sitting in the garage waiting to be fitted as well as 11B plugs. With help from Jimmer we replaced both O2 sensors (which came out quite easily), replaced the plugs with the cooler 11Bs, fitted a new coolant temp sensor and did an oil and filter change. Car idles so much better, throttle response seems to have improved. Turbos now spool up quicker too as I had a boost leak as well! Only a slight one, but was mildly audible. Exhaust is now staying much cleaner. One of my o2 sensors was completely shagged. But replaced both with genuine items. Now that the engine is 101%, it's ripe for a new chip and boost controller. Thanks for your help today Jimmer!
