As above....looking for a Speed Sensor for a manual TT ....UK car...not sure if that makes a difference? Thanks Gary

Have removed the speed sensor and tested the voltage which I understand should be between 1-5vac....showed very high resistance of around 21...and when spinning the sensor it is very 'rough' and notchy which doesn't feel right....so have decided to replace the sensor....I have seen new ones between £45 - £150....the £45 one states it is for a TT 1995-1996....will this fit?....are there any differences between the 1990-91 and 95-96 models? Happy to try a 'used' sensor if anyone has one (as they rarely fail) Thanks Gary

Thanks Jeff...UK car so no converter. Have already had the speed sensor out and the end isn't blown and the teeth all good....I suppose I could spin the sensor with a meter on it to see if it is generating a signal?... otherwise it must be a connection...seeing as the failure happened after a 100 yards or so over broken tarmac at 50mph!

Jeff....A quick question...your instructions above state using the multi meter in AC mode....just to check that isn't a typo...not doubting your knowledge...just seems to be opposite of what one would expect! I have tried the test as above and get no signal at screw A....and also none at screw B...but I guess if there was no signal into A there wouldn't be one out at B! Apologies for being a little dense around this...:biggrin: Gary

Has anyone got a WORKING OEM CD Player?....I have 3.....none of which work! Also...I am after a UK Speedo (I don't need the whole cluster ...just a guaranteed working Speedo clock)..... Thanks Gary

Thanks Jeff

An old thread I know...but after an extended bit of driving across broken tarmac (100 yards or so on an M56 contraflow using the hard shoulder) I suddenly lost my speedo...completely dead...this was followed by the HICAS light illuminating and heavy steering...and of course the CC wouldn't lock on. The following 200 mile journey home was very interesting...with the myriad of variable speed limits.....and no idea how fast I was going! I pulled into services to check and there was no power steering fluid loss. From the thread above (and the others cited)....is my problem most likely to be: A A dry solder joint on the back of the speedo head ..........(I have removed and inspected it but cannot see anything untoward) or B A loose connection on the speed sensor ...jarred by my 'off roading' session or C A failed speed sensor or D Something else? BTW after stopping at the services to check for fluid loss...back on the motorway...no speedo...HICAS light remained off for about 2 minutes. Starting the car yesterday on my drive the power steering was back....haven't driven it since and have dismantled the dash to get the speedo head out. Jeff (oh wise one)...please advise :helpsmilie:

Glad to hear it!

Black wheels too Si !!?

I believe there is a very nice Gun Metal Grey one there too :yes: :innocent:

Have you looked at the Classifieds 'Z Related Cars' for sale on this forum?

Doh!

How about this ! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/escort-mk1-rally-race-track-/192101384859?hash=item2cba22829b:g:mVoAAOSw-0xYhM5B

I had intended in waiting a couple of weeks...but seeing as there seems to be a fair amount of interest in cars for sale at the moment....... I have a 1990 JDM TT Auto that I have spent the last 18 months renovating to a very high standard.....and I am now considering embarking on another Z related project that would necessitate me letting my current car go..... I entered my 2016 Car of the Year entry....(don't be put off it got '0' votes ....there were some super special cars it was up against!) Details of the car in this thread...... http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?186302-Car-of-The-Year-2016-entries-!!&p=1938775#post1938775 If anyone is interested. ...contact me for a full and honest rundown of the car....or have a look at it in person at the Ace Cafe meet on Saturday 11th February. Gary

After reading cc300zx post...I only just realised it was Saturday....I was going to turn up on Sunday!

Discount Car Covers from Ebay... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/322348281448?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT They don't list a cover for the 300zx...but I liaised with them and after investigation they advised that based on dimensions.... their Audi R8 Coupe/Spyder cover would be the right size....very happy with it ....very snug fit....and as it is fleece lined I'm hoping there won't be any paintwork issues!

Seeing as I haven't got a garage for her....and am sick of seeing her out in the rain and cold....I finally took delivery of... and fitted... (after completely drying the old girl!) ... a new Fleece Lined Double Layer 100% Waterproof & Breathable Car Cover :thumbup1:

You can get them with staggered widths (8.5 Front and 9.5 Rear)...I think the offsets are 42 front and 40 rear.... http://www.revolution247.com/catalogue/shop-by-category-alloy-wheels-river/river---r-6-alloy-wheel-finished-in-silver-with-polished-lip I think they would look great on a Z....Photoshop please Ali :thumbup1: I don't know if they do the correct PCD though?
