Newbies - let yourselves be known

hi, new to this 300zx lark and hoping to be a proud owner of a 300zx convertible if i win it on ebay. are there any pitfalls to these cars or are they reliable. any pointers would be great thx

Hi, Just put a deposit down on a 300zx TT manual and I am collecting this Saturday:thumbup: It already has had a bit done to it so not sure I will be messing around with it to much! I managed to grab a photo of it.

hey guys just bought my first 300zx, wanted one for a few years and finally managed to get one she's in a sorry state at the mo, but hoping to put that right. its a nice jap import n/a manual swb, will try and upload some pics when i work out how to.

Hi everyone, My name is Vítor and I'm from Portugal. Been a pistonhead since I can remember and the 300zx was in my dream car list since I was 16 or so (32 now). So an opportunity came by and I bought a 93 TT 2+2 LHD in the beginning of the year. She was looking pretty good so I jumped for it: And after she got home, shot a couple more pics next to a friend's toy:

Hi all im darren.just purchased a 300zx twin turbo and will no doubt be picking a few brains over the coming months..by the way ive got a proper z as well.haha restoring a 260z 2 seater. Must say the power in the 300zx is awesome and im going to have a lot of fun with it

Hi there, Just to say i've jumped back on the 300zx band wagon! I was privilaged enough to own Apache's stunning N/A swb a couple of years ago, but being 21, and on apprentice wage I was unable to keep putting fuel in it! Well now i'm back, a fully fledged aerospace engineer and i've just put a deposit down on another swb, but this time a TT, 70,000 miles (potentially less depending on whether the clock was sent back when converting to mph), brand new mot (with the 2 minor advisories delt with), bodywork is really good, I found no rust at all, not even rear sills or boot lid where water likes to sit. The engine runs smooth and everything works! it's also standard b…

Hi Guys Thought I would post a pic of my car for starters, seems like that's the done thing here. Im looking to get more involved, shows, runs etc, im in the Rochdale area. Car is a TT with manual conversion and the usual remap and fettle from Jeff @ Zedworld. I love it, it always puts a massive smile on my face every time I drive it. Anyway what do you guys think of her ???

Hello Everyone! My name is Anna :angel: I'm from Poland but I live in Belfast 2,5years. I have the Nissan Twin Turbo 300zx FairLady Z and i LOVE this car :) My adventure with Nissan began last year. I take the time now to small modifications and engine repair. I'm happy that i register here and hope so when i will sorted evertythink we will be meet together on the events and on the track :) few pics:

Hi guys, been registered on here a while and have not introduced myself. This seems to be a great forum which loads of info and a bunch of helpful members most willing to help. I am from South Africa and the 300zx 2+2 was sold here for a few years by Nissan and of late many jap import models have surfaced as well as some US left hand drive models. I have owned mine for 3 years and got it as a non runner which was the only way I could afford it, anyway I will be planning a build thread soon as I have most of the parts now to get going. cheers for now...

Hi to all you Zedders here at 300ZX. I thought it good manners to introduce myself before going any further. Briefly, I have had a love affair with the Z marque since 1985. Started with the 260Z 2+2. I recently purchased a green 1994 z32 convertible which has only covered 36000+ miles. In the process of making a few very subtle mods and will post some pics once completed.

Hi all, My name's Adam from Nottingham. I have a 1992 JDM 300ZX Twin Turbo which I have owned for about a year now. It has the following modifications currently- Stainless Exhaust & Apexi Filter Blitz Access ECU Greddy Profec Boost Controller Lightweight Prop Shaft Injen Chrome Intercooler Hardpipes Braided Fuel Lines Silicon Coolant & PCV Hoses Chrome all over the engine bay (thinking of removing some of it) Replaced the front lights with earlier spec dark headlamps as one of the previous owners fitted lights with silver inserts which I wasn't as keen on. Advan Siena 2 Wheels with Goodyear Eagle Asymmetrical Tyres …

Hi everyone!! Decided to spoil myself with a late Xmas pressie and got tempted by a beautiful z32 with one-off body kit and boosted power. Not very reasonable as I already have a few other toys, and decided to buy the beast without any proper check over... I don't have much paper work and bought it from a dealer that took it in part exchange. He put me the previous owner on the phone for me, who confirmed that the car was all good. Decided to go for it as the look is simply awesome (flash yellow, certainly not for the shy type) and the power tremendous. I owned a z32 a few years ago, and when I took this one for a test drive, realised how much more power was on…

So I guess my thread was too long so I made a new one to share my Blue Z in Germany First day I saw my blue Z, I had to save her :sad: she was missing the hood and just sitting under the snow and how she is now still working on her well this are my two Z's and they still need a lot of work but I love them Thanks for reading and I am hoping i can take a drive with my Z to the UK one day

Hey I sold my lwb tt last year for a Clio sport 182 cup and a Suzuki SV 650, but it really....wasnt a zed so I got a new one! It isn't running at the moment it's a silver swb manual n/a which I hope to convert to tt cause the current engine is knackered! Also make it all Shiney and blemish free! Here comes take 2!

Hi there! I have recently bought the car of my dreams, 300zx tt auto in black. i was initially looking for a manual but nearly everyone i hadbeen to look at had been abused. i then came across an auto that was in excellent condition and had been owned by an enthusiast and never looked back. it drives fantastic. The car isnt perfect by all means. the targa roof leaks in heavy rain and it has a small oil leak. However it has had a reconditioned engine installed by zed world amd other small modifications so i am happy. My ambition is to fit the wide arch kit on it when i can afford it but my main focus is to concentrate on making sure it is mechanically soun…

I'm not a newbie so why can I not PM????? Have I missed something?

Hi I am Matt from the new forest. I own a 300ZX manual convertible. Marty from this forum spotted my car advertised on Ebay and told me about the owners club, so I thought I'd join up. I love the convertible, but I am after a turbo tin top now, or a decent R32 Skyline maybe :ph34r:

Well, as title, good afternoon to you all. I'm new here, don't own a Zed at the moment, owned one in the past though, used to be known as Eliza and ran with FLZ 2300, if anyone knows of it let me know, but I beleive it was broken! :( Anyway, just thought I'd say hello :)

Hi , the names Ed , and heres the story of how i came into ownership of a Z32. A couple of years ago I got sick of running “interesting” (to me at least) cars as daily drivers so I invested in a jeep, a trailer, and a track only 180SX and decided to have a go at this drifting malarkey. In the ensuing 2 years or so, I only managed to get the car on track about 7-8 times. Whilst the few days I had her on track were an absolute blast and I have memories I will take to my grave, such as getting on the handbrake at 80mph just past the bridge in Mondello to attempt a switch entry into Honda (scary as hell), the remaining 361 days of the year were spent in abject miser…

Hi all, I'm considering coming over to 300zx fold and ideally would be after a nicely powered (450bhp +) swb tt, not to bothered about paint work as long as it's not rusty, and a transistor radio will also be ok instead of a shake the back window out boom box. Running that amount of hp, would everyone say a built engine is needed?

Hello my name is Luis and I live in Germany for now, I am from California where I have mu White z with not many mods the white z started as a 2+2 Automatic :hurl: it wen trough a successful transplant to a 5 speed done by me and then a heart transplant to a TT done by me as well, this was in 2008. I blew the first engine and got a second JDM but did the 120k service and slapped some GT2530 with 740cc injectors, coil overs and adjustable suspension this is the first day I got her home I paid 1200 US new bumper I didn't like it once it was on wasn't happy with it so I go a JSPEC heart transplant:cool3: How she is now

Hi all my names Mark and im a new z owner from Camden Town London. Ive wanted one for years having admired them as a child and recently the wife finally agreed to let me get one as a project. So i picked a 91 Twin Turbo up from eastbourne for 560 quid and to say she needs work is an understatement. She does run but i think theres a misfire and she overheats after a short time of running her. Now theres no oil in the water shes dumping so im happy its not a headcasket but i do need a water pump... Anyways thought id say high As you can see the engine bay is very tired

Just joined up here, I'm on a heck off a lot of other forums so thought i'd join up here too LOL. I live in Derby and drive a 5th generation Honda Prelude and I also have a carbon wrapped Del Sol. I used to own a black 300zx TT manual around 4 years ago, I'm lusting for another one..so thought i'd join up so I can pick peoples brains.

Hello everyone I own a SWB Manual JDM model.

Hi everyone, I have had my 300zx a couple of months now, it's my first one and I love it! I'm new to these cars so might be asking some advice in the near future. Cheers guys James
