nels0n Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Hi guys, My names Craig from Swansea in South Wales. I have been driving a nissan silvia s15 for the past year or so but unfortunately had the dreaded bottom end go on me. Ive always wanted a Z so i thought what better time than now! I think ive found the one i want. In the lovely gun metal grey finish with the gt pack on it. Im just wondering is there anything else i need to look for common faults etc on this? Ive had a browse through and found about the window motors going which this one has no biggie, the rear drive shafts? this one is fine. Im also told the engine management light is on after fitting an exhaust? Im guessing its lamda sensors/spacer etc? Apart from that it looks great. Heres a photo anyway, the carbon wrapped bonnet is going! Cheers Craig! Quote

GMballistic Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 What an awesome welcome guys thanks! anyone able to confirm the engine light after an exhaust fitted? The EML can come on for any number of reasons. The code will need reading to be 100% sure why it's on. The EML can't be triggered by a change of exhaust system as far as I'm aware but it can be triggered though by fitting De-Cats or HFC's (High Flow Cats) as it affects the CO2 sensors. Usually no big deal though. Quote
nels0n Posted November 17, 2014 Author Posted November 17, 2014 Yeah the lad says he has it cleared now and again by his garage and it flags up as lambda sensors. Thanks for the quick reply and ive just thoroughly enjoyed reading your build GM! Would love to come see it one day! Quote

Sometimes there are local meets so no doubt they'll be some on the cards again for next year. Keep an eye on the regional meets section.
