Hi All, For some reason, my 1990 300zx TT just doesn't boost like its suppose to. I have a disabled boost control unit in there that I haven't removed yet, which I hope is the cause of the problem. I had a drag with my mates over the weekend and I lost to both of them. One had a Honda intergra (worked engine) and one had a stocky Nissan Skyline R33. My Z got decimated, I hanged my head in shame all weekend. I need some advice, I'm a car novice, would you guys be able to give me some advice on how to beef up my Z. Cheers
a stock z should beat a stock r33, something is wrong with your car, have you got a boost gauge? if not grab one as i rekon your running in saftey boost (5-6psi) or alternativly get the car conzulted.. someone in nsw may be able to help you with that.. is your car stock?
Nobody said anything about drag racing on the street - which cleary Trumps was not doing, because that would be illegal, and nobody on this forum does illegal things like that.
i second that. From what i have been told other forums know us as the cardigan club.. From my previous experience we drive 30kms under the limit. *cough cough*
where abouts in NSW are you? Dosn't say on your profile. may be able to help you get her running back to thumping specs if your in sydney...can't have a zed beaten by a skyline...let alone an integra!!!
Do an ecu test, see if there is any error codes, then check for boost leaks check your base timing, clean terminals, do a compression test or get one done by a mechanic, once you have done this you'll know where your at, then you can go from there.
Thanks for all your help guys Yeah i'll take it to a shop and see what happens. Yeah my ride is stocky. Don't worry guys when me and my mates drag, its on a race track we hire, not on the streets, so it is legal. Cheers
Re: Thanks for all your help guys Make sure you take it to a shop that knows 300zx's. Otherwise you'll be throwing money away as most places wouldn't know how to fix some of the simple problems you get in a 300.
Do you guys know any places in Sydney Do you guys know of any good places in Sydney I can take my 300 to get it back and running at full potential?. Cheers,
UAS @ Castle HILL, They know 300ZX Inside OUT, but bit pricey i reckon, but u sure u get top services for ur ZED there,
No one even got time to post up a prediction about your remark!! R3D300, they are pricey because you are not paying for them to 'learn' about your Z :LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL:
U get wat You are paid for I guess :thumbsup::thumbsup::LOL::thumbsup: i tell him so he can be prepare, not too upset when he see the bills,
