All Activity

Trying to bring a once, race / track 300zx back to life. Not doing as much work now as the garage is bloody cold. But I have recently fitted new Tein EDFC active dampers , slotted brakes discs and yellow stuff pads. Now repairing brake lines that run inside the car. Next just is to repair and spray a bumper, also fit intercoolers. I have a ZF 8HP gearbox I am planning to use as a sequential box (not for the purists I know, but i would never buy a car i can't modifiy, it's in my DNA) Rebuild ing a small block chevy, although I do have a single turbo heavily modified 300zx engine that could go in. I also need to get a prop made. All this will keep me busy. Unique features of the car: One piece carbon fibre detachable roof, carbon fibre tailgate for 2+2, carbon fibre bonnetand light panel, polycarbonate windows, FIA roll cage, internal fuse and breaker box to run all car electrics from just need to make a loom. Race battery, brake bias controls. Slightly wider wheel track due to suspension upgrades. There is more but that should do.

Nothing on the Z but someone pullout and hit the Porsche.

Looking good Chris!!

Hi and welcome Mash - and that's a fine looking Zed you have mate!

Nice work Tony!

LOL - but yup, what he said.....😁

Thanks everyone - and getting back on topic, this thread was started to thank those people who stepped up and helped make the show a success. And a success it was, as always we had plenty of footfall over the three days - from people coming to admire the cars and chat, to folks who once owned a Z32 when they were new who came to reminisce..... And some potential new members, who have recently acquired a 300zx and may need some help in the future My favourite was the man who's dad worked for Nissan in the early 1990s, and he brought two Z32s home to show his [then] young son. One being a base spec white TT manual, and the other a range-topping fully-spec'ed red TT auto with full leather et al.... Pretty much the image of Jason's car. He was clearly moved at the sight of it!! But I have left my biggest thank you to the last - thank you all for buying your tickets with the club discount. Our final numbers are in, and we managed a record [for us] 72 sales!!! 72 - versus just 4 last year - nice one folks, the organisers are very pleased with this, so hopefully it will go down well, when I apply for a stand next year.... So we're now done for NEC 2025, it came and went pretty quickly but we had a great time as always. Thank you one last time - and here's to NEC 2026🤩

And then another 2 years passes by!😄

Welcome!

After realising my pod has been stuck together with wire and glue, I'm searching for the little metal bracket that sits at the top of the right-hand light/cruise control pod. The picture shows the bracket I need (albeit for a LHD car). It's not the one that connects to the Hazard light switch, it's the one on the other side. If anyone has the bracket, or even a crusty pod that has the bracket attached, I'd appreciate it if you could send me a message. Thanks!

Wanted blue tweed drivers seat for a 1992 jdm swb.

Today I helped my brother remove the body of his project Lotus Europa.

Definitely did not see you Craig would have been good to chat, plenty of catching up for sure, I did try and chat to Ian but it was hard work to be honest and be it he did or not recognise me I have no idea, came away somewhat disappointed either way.

Another shout out to the international members. Seeing alot more activity globally which is phenomenal. If you've just registered for our Owners Club then give us a intro to your new born zed life. We will love to hear your stories. 😎

Wow getting carpet out, Heater box & Engine loom is a massive job. 😡😭

Welcome back.

Happy Birthday 🥳

Have a good one Kirbyklan. 🎂

Here we have my first zed up for sale to anyone who wants it for parts. The plan was to do a swap to the TT but we have decided just to sell this shell as is for parts. Interior has already been stripped, but we have a good engine, gearbox, coil overs, wheels, bonnet and tailgate on offer. Collection will be needed from Irvine.

Something like this would work : Screwfix.comSilverline Wiper Arm & Battery Terminal Puller - ScrewfixOrder online at Screwfix.com. Heavy duty, hardened steel construction with locking feature allowing the tool to be fastened securely to the wiper arm. Combination of swivel-mounted thrust bearing, and

Just a flat screwdriver to pri off the panel. Then there is a few plastic clips that's you can squeeze to release the two parts away, you should be able to slide the belt through so that it comes between the panels rather than behind the top part.

Finally she sits on her own 4 wheels again. Video

Yeh, Those belts are supposed to be in front of the panel. Thats why you have an issue.

Maybe you saw me and decided to avoid me as not one of the interesting guys? Or i didn’t recognise you. Would be a shame though, as i would have liked to chat with you, apologise and explain why we sometimes clash, and to try and put that behind us.

Given the impending dark evenings, I started the process of sorting out my "slow returning" seatbelts. After being advised that Sillicone spray would solve my problem, I had a good look at the belt and belt area to see how I would be able to spray the belt itself. Here is a picture of what I found... I guess that answers why my return is so slow...same setup on the passenger side too. I am thinking this is "not normal" and I need to remove the panel to make sure the seatbelt sits "outside" the trim...? If so, any special tool need to remove the trim or is it just matter of removing the screw(s) that hold the trim in place? Answers on a postcard! Thanks, Phil
