#303 of 317 Re: Security System Issue (89checkmate22) [hpmctorque] by 89checkmate22 Dec 12, 2008 (11:48 am)
Replying to: hpmctorque (Dec 11, 2008 12:58 am) With 245,000 miles the crankshaft broke. A friend had an engine out of an 86 with 55,000 on it (pulled from his attempt to mate 300ZX and 16 point buck), so after swapping out a few external pieces (pulleys etc) we stuffed it in. Now all I need to do is get that pesky thing to run!!!

Well, with 245,000 miles your 300ZX didn't owe you anything, although I've never heard of a crankshaft actually breaking.   Good luck with getting your Z back on the road.
#305 of 317 94 300zx post timing belt change over issues by zsforme Apr 26, 2009 (3:44 pm)
I have a 1994 300zx non turbo. Not toooo long ago I broke my timing belt (yeah I know). Anyway I have replaced all necessary parts and tried to start, no go. All my warning lights are on and even with the car unlocked the "security" light stays flashing. on the car will crank, but nothing happens. According to the manual I needed to disconnect the battery so I wouldn't get shocked while removing starter. I am thinking there is an issue with the theft alarm. The car is in great shape, but I don't think I am getting fuel to the injectors. I hear the fuel pump. I also hear a slight squeak that runs as pump starts might be nothing, but??. Does anyone know why all my lights are staying on and why the car is not turning over?   thanks, Chuck Replies to this message: justinlust (Apr 26, 2009 8:03 pm) zsforme (Apr 28, 2009 9:44 pm) justinlust (Apr 29, 2009 1:11 am)

Replying to: zsforme (Apr 26, 2009 3:44 pm) chuck have you tried to reset the alarm with the doors and hood all closed and then lock and unlock the door with the key ? also you may half to reset the codes in the computor or you can try putting it in test mode to see what errors it gives you Replies to this message: zsforme (Apr 28, 2009 9:44 pm) justinlust (Apr 29, 2009 1:11 am)

Replying to: nac300zx (Jan 24, 2007 6:39 pm) I would start by looking into the front braking system,you are probabally getting pulsation from front brake rotors.If you replace rotors also replace pads.also insure that you don't have a brake caliper that is stuck as this would spoil new pads and rotors.from what you are saying this is a very good possibility due to the fact that the wheel shakes while driving down the road as well as when you apply the brakes.

Replying to: justinlust (Apr 26, 2009 8:03 pm) Hey Justin, Yes I have tried what you have suggested except testing the computer. I was told that if you turn car (not start) and disconnect the neg terminal turn car off and reconnect it will reset alarm. didn't work. Called Nissan dealer and he suggested that I touch pos terminal to neg (pos off battery that will reset alarm. I will try the computer idea. are u talking about the ECU? Is it under the floor board on passenger side? Thanks for your reply and help I will let you know what happens. Replies to this message: justinlust (Apr 29, 2009 1:11 am)

Replying to: marcd2 (Nov 08, 2005 12:15 pm) One thing to look for is the secondary ground on the negative cable behind the battery. If this is not attached it can cause quite a few weird problems,including dying as you come to a stop, because it starts to draw current away from the ECM. Hope this helps.
#311 of 317 300ZXSS by mmarker May 17, 2009 (8:35 am)
I have a 1988 300ZX SS (Shiro Model). I am trying to have the Recaro seats either redone or replaced. Anyone have information on a source on the material or is anyone parting out a SS model with the Recaro Seats? Have attempted to reach Recaro but they do not respond.

Replying to: mmarker (May 17, 2009 8:35 am) I also have a Shiro that we purchased last October. The driver's side seat needs work on the foam and fabric. I emailed Recaro about fabric and they checked with Japan and said that it was no longer available. I haven't been able to come up with a replacement seat either. The best solution I've found so far, is to reupholster both seats in fabrics that are very close to the original. If we do this, we'll have the Recaro embroidery cut out of the back of the seat and sewn into the new fabric. Total cost estimate is around $600.
