No not sure how to do the boost leak test but will do some searching an see if I have the tools to do it I have a multi metre so can check the injectors. See how far I get tomorrow maybe time to take it to a garage. Thanks for the reply Jeff really appreciate it costing me loads this zed lol...

Hello everyone, Not having much luck with my 300zx tt at the moment electrical faults galore but managing to bottom these problems. Anyways the problem I have now is that my car idles up and down then sometimes decides to settle at 1500 rpm then at the next set of lights it goes to 600 rpm an some times cuts out and if you give it some it will not go past 5k it just starts to splutter and revs drop all of a sudden.i have taken my iacv off cleaned and fitted back with new gasket changed plugs checked all connectors I can think of ptu etc all ok. Going to ohm test my injectors tomoz as well as run a diagnostic test but anyone can think of anything else would be much appreciated thanks in advance an sorry for the long post haha.

Cheers will do first job tomorrow then missus is going to be hungover tomorrow so shouldn't get a complaint that I spend more time with car than her haha...

Hi everyone hope ya all good. Got another problem I need to bottom just wondering If anyone has had the same fault. I have white smoke (not steam) coming from the passenger side in front of the battery smells oily it only smokes when it's been on boost and I turn the engine off, no smoke coming from exhaust or anything and no smoke from bonnet when been driven gently.

Good too know cheers I'm slowly doing the car up it's road worthy but is a little tired. Bristol is a little far for me but going to give them a ring tomorrow because the zed is worth it.

Cheers for the reply a little new to zed cars so a little unsure of places I can take my zed an best places to get parts from.

Hi all, Where is the best place to get my timing belt kit from i have a 92 nissan 300zx twin turbo import automatic. And is there anything else I should be getting whilst bits are off the car?

Yeah don't think I'm going down the De cat route it's just my exhaust has a very slight blow and was just thinking of going full stainless ,when I bought the car it already had a cat back system so was just thinking shall I finish the rest of the system off....its my first z so unsure of what's best for the old girl.

Cheers for replies I will pop into exhaust specialist near me and get some prices....

I will look into the sports cats. Is de cat safe heard A lot of stories of blowing turbo seals don't know how true the stories are though.

Hello everyone, After some advise I'm thinking of buying some high flow cats from z1 motorsports in USA. Has anyone dealt with them before? And can't find shipping cost to the UK never imported parts before is there any chargers?. Luke

IT'S ALIVE!!! The problem turned out to be corroded connector in the passenger footwell tucked up under the glove box right in the corner the auto elec found it couldn't fault the guy new his stuff on older cars. Anyways I'm back on the road thanks for all your input guys and hopefully be able to make the 300zx meet now

I will give that a miss then cheers for the reply bud I will stick to the standard one.

If the ecu is at fault I can get hold of a blitz ecu is this a decent ecu or a no no.....

Or dear i hope not that auto elec is coming Friday morning so fingers crossed he can sort it. If the ecu has thrown it's toys out of the pram does anyone repair them? Or best place to get a second hand 1?

Interesting thank you for the info guys. Looks like I'm booking another day off to have a good go at it. Also had a chat with an auto elec who works on classic cars so hopefully he might be able to help me and I might learn something lol. Cheers guys much appreciated.

The car started last week with the same test today and I haven't changed anything inbetween just done some re tracing footsteps etc but could have easily snagged an old wire or something thats what im hoping anyway.i will have another look at the alarm after work tomorrow it's pretty easy to get too.

This is where I start to struggle it's an aftermarket alarm a GT636 I just removed the control box and unplugged the immobaliser. Thanks for the diagram I will have a look through it see if I can understand it haha. I have had search around and found a auto elec who works on on classic cars n kit cars near me so going to give them a ring in morning, I don't want to go tampering with something I don't fully understand really getting past my electrical skill now haha.thanks for help really appreciated will let you know how it turns out.

Well today has been another failure in afraid I checked the slim fuse box all fuses are ok and swapped them just in case, I then tested power from battery to the fuses (If that's correct) 12v so it seems from the slim fuse box to the relay is where my problem is. But problem I short my relay out now it doesn't start but when I did it last week it fired straight up so I think I'm making a bad situation worse fiddling with wires. Looking around for a auto elec but nobody wants to touch it lol. Does any of you guys know of a good auto elec around south Yorkshire who is willing to work on these cars? Any help will be appreciated thanks in advance.

Thank you Jeff I'm off work today and the weather is nice thank God so it's happy hunting.

Hello was wondering if someone can help me my fuel pump isn't priming at all. I have put 12v to the pump it works so then tried it at the fuel module that works also got to relay switch in the drivers side kick panel and the relay isn't clicking I have put 12v to this via a power probe tester it clicks and car starts and runs perfectly. I have removed my aftermarket alarm just as a precaution just in case it was the immobolizer still no prime. I'm not good with electrics so any help will be much appreciated thanks to all in advance.

Thank you for the reply I will give it ago. I'm very interested in coming to the annual meet if the the missus allows haha. An car is running where is the meet?

Hi all my name is luke from Rotherham, I am a proud owner of a 92 z32 tt this is my first z always wanted one since I can remember she needs a little tlc but is road worthy looking forward to spending my time and money on her. Unfortunately she isn't working at the moment she has developed an electrical gremlin but hopefully sorted on Monday. I would post a pic but I haven't a clue how to do it. Haha
