Oh yes, and I also serviced my car today. Oil change with filter, the FSM says 3,4L of oil. I've put in 3,5L but still no oil on the dipstick. Anyone knows how much goes in it? I guess it's more? Mike

I installed my subframe collars today. I have to say the difference is noticable.....especially when the Hicas is doing his thing :laugh:

No, I didn't mean the lower mouldings, I meant the upper ones.....are they available as a spare part? Those are the one that make a joint between the rear window and the hatch. Mike By the way, the car is stunning Simon!!!

Simon, did you replace the rubbers from the rear quarter windows? I couldn't find these anywhere, think they are part of the window itself. Mike

DO you guys have to go to MOT even if it's registred as an oldtimer?

Relay could be faulty like ZNUT said, even if you hear it click.....i'd go for measuring first before buying parts.

19°, dry, so what do you do? Cleaning and polishing the Z for a nice drive tommorrow with even warmer weather :phone:

Nope, no error codes. Only went into alarm when warmed up going into fail-safe mode and putting the powersteering in hardest mode.

I had the same problem, searching for months and ended up concluding that it went into alarm once the ecu warmed up and taking a longer time when cold outside. I now changed the Hicas ECU and no problem anymore....... except I feel the Hicas working now and not sure how it is supposed to feel. It's very strange, when turning the steering wheel from L to R on the highway I feel the back of the car moving. Or it is normal or the feeling is amplified by the worn subframe-bushes.

That Z32 comes from Italy, it was for sale for more then 8 months....for only 13000 euro. I wanted to go to Milan to have a look at it but the wife didn't want it. I so regret that I didn't went because I would have bought it.

Yes indeed.....check the FSM for the procedure......to long to describe :blush: Do you have the impression that it takes longer to go into alarm when it's colder outside?

Does it give any error when put in self-test mode?

Hello, does the light come on immediatly when on the motorway ( +/- 90 km/h) of after a while?

For some reason, I find it hard to believe. The production cost is too high and Nissan is no different than any other factory, they want to make profit and this will not be done with parts for old cars but by selling new products.

Hello, my Hicas problem rose again. Now, I will search and finally find the problem but....I was thinking about a solution that might suit several people. Is there anybody who knows how the Hicas and/or non-hicas PS-ECU deals with the different signals? I mean, both systems have parking-brake, brake, clutch, inibitor-switch, steering-angle, speed-sensor attached to it. I wonder why? Speedsensor I can understand but not the others. So, suppose I do delete the hicas-system as many others did, what do I do with the ecu? If I take it out I do loose the power-steering wich I don't want. Is there some sort of piggybag solution? Is there anybody who ever tried to make a circuit-bord that convert the pulses comming from the speed sensor into voltage that could be connected to the ps-valve? I mean, this could be the solution to take out the ps/hicas-ecu and still profit from the speed-variable power-steering. I worked in electronics for more then 15 years and have connection and people who could try to make some sort of piggybag for this but I have to know if it's worth it and if some sort of system doesn't already exists, I don't want to try to re-invent the wheel. For the language-specialists, english is not my native language and I don't have the ability to edit so sorry if there are mistakes in my tekst. I can do it in dutch of french, there will be less mistakes :clown: Mike

I drove up all the way from Belgium to Jimmer for a engine overhaul and haven't regreted it one single second.!!!! If I ever have a major job to be done again, I'll drive up to Bristol right away. Jimmer 's a topguy!!!

Come to Belgium and try to get your car MOT'd if not completely original.....hell I tell you. You have rims or coilovers ( the only technical things permitted) you have to pass a special "tuning" test and off course, pay extra. Everything else is forbidden in Belgium even if the changes are an improvement like steel brake-line's....forbidden! Oh.... and here, if you don't have headlamp washers AND automatic hight-control on the headlights, HID is forbidden too :huh:.

I don't know much but shouldn't the lenght of every pipe be the same?

OK thanks Richard.

Hello guys, I have a question. I drive a 90TT auto, European spec so without the hold button. Last time I tried the O/D switch in the off-position. Indeed my car used only the 3 first gears but I was also under the impresson the throttle was more responsive. I can't find that shifting would be different in the FSM. Do I have a falsse impression or does anyone else has the same impreesion with his autobox? Greetings, Mike

Because the music and the clip is the "story of my life" :yes: - - - Updated - - - Because the music and the clip is the "story of my life" :yes:

Damn, didn't think of that.....:surrender:

When this happens, you won't be driving a Z32 anymore :lol:

All you say is true, but what are you going to do if a obsolete part is broken? Sure 3D-printing is not the same as a original part but is might be a solution, not?

Plastic parts can be made with a 3d printer :clown:
