Newbies - let yourselves be known

Hi guys, Some of you may have already seen me post for some advice on some other bits but anyway... thought I'd introduce myself as I'm new on here. Currently drive an '02 EM2 Civic that I've put a bit of money into, but looking at buying a 300zx TT. Just something thats suitably cooler and faster of course. Always had a thing for Nissans... I think theres probably about 5 in my dream garage (for when I win the lottery :D). I'm pretty new to the whole z-car thing though so go easy on me for now! Live just outside York, dont know if there are any locals or nearby meetings or whatever. Thats about it for now...!

hi guys,i own a 91 300zx,twin turbo manual swb model with targa tops,full veilside kit,duck tail.spoiler,tints,coilovers,spilt rims,hope to get pics up soon,hope to get a 400 bhp rebuild done and get a custom built wide arch kit done and full respray.....ive owned this car for 6 years now..i think i let it down lol

Hi everyone, I was a member on here a good few years ago, I owned a flip red veilside kitted TT but sold it about 4 years ago and have only been on here the odd few times since, I now own a matt black and carbon wrapped TT which ive owned for the past 3 years and have decided it was time to be a paid up member again. looking forward to posting again and hopefully I wont be posting too many new threads in the "help and advice" section lol cheers Si

want to say hello :) i am a new member here , still i have owned a 300zx tt from 2006 , but currently sold it to my father in law. i am still the guy who is working on this car so i can consider myself a 300zx "owner" despite i have a skyline . well in short that's it !

Hi everyone, bought my first zx yesterday after years of looking. It's a lwb, non turbo as insurance on a TT was too expensive for me. Got it as a project. Leaving it off road for now as i'm still driving my astra coupe turbo, although that's no where near as exciting as the zx. Got a few ideas of what i wana do to it but need to do the basics first, new leather interior, replace speedo, respray spoiler etc. Any advice on styling or the best place to buy body and engine parts would be a big help. Looked on ebay for a front bumper but there doesn't seem to be much decent stuff on there.

just bought my first z last weekend and absolutely love it, even reclaimed my garage from wife & kids to stick it in

Ok its been four years since Ive owned a Z but looked at a 1989 import TT thats for sale today and its got my heart pumping like old times! Ive owned plenty of blown brands over the years but this would be my 3rd Z so guess Z`s are best!

Hi girls n guys! am new to the site.I just wanted to give you a little sneek peek of my Z32 i have been building for the last 10 years! No expense has been spared with this car. Full nut and bolt restore through out. She is currently being mapped at Rising sun performance in Winchester and has made an impressive 680 bhp at 1 bar of boost. They are going to push her to 1.8 bar, so cant wait for the results! I have just started doing carbon dipping for a job and plan to Carbon dip all interior parts throught out as soon as it back. Full spec and more pics to come soon!

HI everyone, just joined up reason being i've always wanted to own a 300zx and now i can afford one i would like to know what should i look for when buying one and what to avoid, which year should i buy ect. would be most helpful cheers guys.

New here, so we'll still be learning our way around. And I appreciate your site it is so great... Thanks for being here!

And by soon, I mean tomorrow! I'm going to be in the London/Luton area for the next week or so and it'd be awesome to find a z31/32 owner in the area to hang out with. Anyone in that area, hopefully checking this subforum in the next week?

Hey all i have just got a 300 at last i love this car !! it needs a lot of work and im new to the turbo engines so may need some help lol i swapped my classic mini so a HUGE engine jump lol i havent a clue with thease cars but it was love @ first sight lol !

Wow!! I must have been on the hunt for Z32 MAFs for my S13 and Z32 ECUs to modify back in the the day. That's got to be some kind of record: 8 years, 2 months of no-post lurking :wack: Been a looooong time Nissan Fanboy, managed to wring out 383bhp & 326lbft @ hubs from my internally-stock CA18DET S13 many moons ago. Always wanted a Zed, but just never got round to it. Finally got myself a '92 JDM Twin Turbo Auto. Went up to Newcastle to buy a Soarer 2.5TT, and met with a Zed owner from Dundee ("sheppy" on here, also an MR2 Turbo owner - our cars were both on IMOC) and did a straight swap for my Subaru Forester T/tb. In the dark. In the rain. Guess we were both r…

I've actually been an un-subbed member for sometime, as I am a moderator over on 350z-uk and part helped to organise LakeZ 2011.(More info on LakeZ 2012 to come soon). I had a pretty nicely modified (if I do say so myself!) 350z, which I looked into TT'ing, but it would have been the first TT HR engined Zed in the country and was gonna cost more than the car was worth. So instead I part ex-d it for a VXR8 (LS3) and had a play around with 440bhp for a year or so. Got shot in the summer, and have been moping around in difference sheds of various guises, the latest of which is a Honda Accord Tourer. Time has come to get myself a Zed once again, but due to impen…

Hi all, just registered so thought it would only be polite to say hello. I am the guy that organises the LakeZ event with Lexx. I will also know a few of you from other places too. I am a 350z roadster owner but have had several of the other models so am a big fan of the marque. I love the shows and look forward to meeting more of you during the year.

hi Having owned a few classics in my time i've now decided it's time to acquire a 300ZX. It's bonus time at work as have got a couple of grand (which could be stretched a little) burning a hole in my bank account and need to find a nice TT, not fussed whether SWB or LWB and would prefer a manual one Have had a read through the buyers guides and am still not put off although I think that's more to do with my thinking being done by my 'petrolhead' rather than my sensible head. Any hints, tips, advice, cars that may be coming up for sale? Is it best to buy an unmolested original one or one that's had a few sensible mods already completed? Any advice great…

Hey Guys! New to the forum, would just like to say hello but also ask for a bit of help regarding auto transmission. Sorry about the long post - here is the back story but if you just want to know the problem then please just skip to the bottom. My dad bought a 1992 Red 300ZX TT 2+2 4spd Automatic about a year ago for £1000. It had a seized engine so we trailered it back and have since been working on it in and out of other commitments. After removing the engine and dismantling it the problem turned out to be a big end cap, it had come lose and detached - jamming the engine solid. This matches the description by the previous owner as they said they were goi…

Hi all, Thought i'd pop in and say hello. I'm Barry from Wrexham. Don't have my Z yet, but am getting a '92 TT Manual this weekend. It's a car that's already within this site - i'm doing a deal with a member here called Paull83. The Z could do with a bit of work, mainly bodywork so i have a few plans. The good thing for me is that it's not going to be a daily runner, so i'm in no rush to get things done. Hopefully sometime next year i'll get to meet with a few of you and you can all tell me how best to spend my money :biggrin:

got this delivered today for a nice price. its a targa top model n/a auto, Apart from needing a wash and polish it needs the altenator replaced or reconned whatever is cheapest as the bushes inside it are either stuck/sticking, and the prop bearings need replaced as its knocking in the middle (under handbrake console if that helps you picture where) and thats basically it.
