I am looking for the answer to this. I was hoping to use the windscreen scuttle drain exit hose location under the car (or wherever it is) and push a flexible wire up from below and see it come up through the windscreen scuttle. I believe mine is blocked and this has caused flooding in the passenger foot carpet area and damp behind the ECU

Might be an idea to hook up a battery charger to these cars while working on them with accessories switched on?

Can they weld something equivalent to a spacer on the front wheels and rebore and balance them so you don't need longer studs?

I'm in Australia

Waterpump bearing, there is a weep hole that leaks a little bit when it is time to replace the water pump. I recently found out my 37,000 km water pump has failed.

order up some non-bolt-on hub-centric spacers. I'll call the wheel supplier though, they may be kind enough to help out:wink: Cheers folks:clover: Why not order some bolt-on HUB centric spacers. Much safer. I had 25mm bolton hub centric spacers for my stock 16"Zed wheels. No problems and the stock wheels looked flush. Just go with the thinnest bolt on hub centric, probably 10mm.

I had that symptom on another car about 15 years ago. I decided to get a replacement engine thst had already been refreshed. While the mechanic was sourcing an engine he suggested putting a chemical in the coolant and another in the oil. It worked. I did eventually get the engine swapped out, but the old engine eas running really well with that chemical in ot. I later found out that some performance car manufacturers put that stuff in their cars forcthe running in period when new. If you can find something like that and you are putting a different engine in anyway then why not give it a go.

Too bad the diagnostic isn't running for you. You can get a couple of dressmaker pins and push them into the back of the TPS plug, follow the wire, you want to make contact with the internal crimp or back of the contacts Then use a multimeter/volts and adjust the TPS voltage while the engine is in PARK / idle. I have found that lower value allows changes a bit easier.

Yes 2018 hasn't been great for my Zed. She has been in the driveway since May. But if any of you watched the televised Sydney New Year's Eve fireworks, then you'll know that they announced it was Happy New Year 2018 (again)

Did you say the guy abandoned the test and didn't charge you? So fingers crossed that the rest of the car passes (after the nedd/no need cats issue is sorted). I have been told that the Aussie spec Z32 is like the UK spec. Seems there is a difference because we have always had cats as a standard feature.

Back when I was a member on the Aussie forum there eas one guy in Western Australia who suggested using a clock internal found on ebay, which he provided a 3D prjnted insert to adapt the PCB to the internal of the original Nissan clo v k shell.

If my Zed was driveable and reliable I might get an Android based car stereo with a double height screen, I could bluetooth connect my trackelectronics BTconsult and switch between NDS1 gauges, DVR and GPS..... and music . If you can, do it. These things usually have an option to mirror your apple iPhone screen

Get the NDS1 software for Android. Not expensive. Nissan Data Scan http://www.nissandatascan.com The Nissan DataScan I is intended for Nissan cars build between years 1989 and 2000.

This works. Then use diagnostic app via your android tablet (or android based media stereo ) http://www.trackelectronics.com.au/diagnostics

I was hoping for a 'longest distance member' award :clap:
