I don't know how reliable this information is but the drop from 2027 Zeds licensed in 2001 to 474 for 2014 is very steep. https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=nissan+300zx

Just got the car back from Jeff with new MOT. In Jeff's words, "it flew through, didn't touch the sides." "You could have taken it to Halfords" Lol :laugh:

Off to Coleshill to see Jeff :thumbup1: She's been under the car cover so long :blushing: I'd almost forgotten how good she looks.

No worries. Just in time, as the Zed's off to see Jeff on Monday for some light recommissioning after a few months :whistling: laid up

Still here and keepin' on, keepin' on :thumbup1:

Cheers Richard :thumbup1: She's getting there not a patch on yours....yet :wink: I do like that blue, I very nearly ended up with one.

Couldn't resist a quick Boxing Day blast :D

Cheers dude :thumbup1: Now I'll go and find out what it does :)

Hi All, Just noticed a ticking noise coming from the drivers side front wing area. It's fairly quiet and doesn't start until the engine warms up. It sounds fairly low frequency and a bit "clockwork-like". i'm just thinking of what's changed in that area and all I can think of is that the carbon canister and coolant bottle (although that's the other side) have just been deleted. Any thoughts? Many thanks Nick

Finally got chance to drive the car having got it back from Luke at ZCentre :biggrin: and she's feeling like a very happy machine. Thanks Luke :thumbup1: With the "foundation work" done last month (cambelt, new rad, oil cooler, coilovers etc.) an experienced eye needed to be cast over it. Wheel bearings and were diff checked, compression test done. So oil and plugs were changed, the "mushroom" filter replaced with a Drift induction kit and the "walt disney productions" exhaust swapped out for a shiny Japspeed cat back. Even treated her to a set of SS brake lines. Finally, the new (to me) wheels went on (cheers Ross :thumbup1:) and I am chuffed to bits with the transformation :cool3:

Hi All, I've not got on here in the last couple of weeks but today just went through the weekly regime, really. Car cover off, quick wipe down, check the fluids, followed by a gentle cruise and the obligatory tyre pressure check. All in good working order exept the digital clock however, which declined to come on today. The coilovers are still bedding in but I still think I need to dial them down a little, still a bit too jiggly for my tastes. Oh yeah, also booked her in with Luke at the Z Centre for a good-going-through and a new cat-back exhaust at the end of the month.

Hi Gary, Cheers dude, mine arrived today. Nick

Just for anyone else that searches for this problem.....3 hours after and with the engine properly cool, I've just been out to start the car on the drive and lo and behold, the gauge is back to exactly where it should be. Cheers fellas. Nick Oil Pressure Low Gauge Oil Sender Hot Cold

That's great advice guys, you're the best :thumbup: I did suspect that the gauge was telling me fibs, as everything else seemed just so normal. Thanks are due all round. Nick.

Hi Guys, Just picked the zed up after 4 weeks of waiting, worrying and parts buying. The drive back (100 miles) was fine...........however, although I did "baby it" a bit at 60-65 mph and didn't really get above 2500 - 3000 rpm, the Oil Pressure needle never quite got to, what I assume, is the 2 Kg / cm mark (mid point on gauge is 4 and 8 is the max). At idle it was only a 5mm or so above the 0 mark. Using an online converter, this should equate to 25-28ish PSI. The car drove fine, plenty of power, the temp gauge never moved and all seemed to be fine. Does this sound ok or does it need further investigation? Many thanks guys. Nick
