Newbies - let yourselves be known

Hi I'm adam I'm 21 from sussex, I've been on this forum for a fair bit of time now in terms of when i registered, anyway, i'm currently part of ffoc (ford focus owners club) and i Love my focus, don't get me wrong, its a great chassis and has very good potential, the plan was to do a cosworth rwd conversion, but that will take alot of time and money and also increases the % of something going wrong....:( I Absolutely see potential in a 300zx and i have always loved them, but 3.0 V6 TT.....i'm 21 and i don't think i'd get insured. The BIG issue for e is that by the time i'm old enough to get one in 4 -5 years, they will become rare and fade out.....that would rea…

Hi im looking for a zx specialist in manchester to do my cam belt. Does any1 know ov any?

Firstly id like to say hi to everybody! I finally bit the bullet and brought a 300zx, this is my first jap car and certainly away from my normal cars (air cooled beetles). Friday i purchased a 1990 300zx TT tagra uk-spec manual with just over 100k on the clock. This is by no means a perfect car current problems include:- -Buckled alloy- ordered zedworld -Warped discs- Full disc n pad change on order -o/s/r shock leaking- will replace both rear/ or fit coilovers -possibly rear bushes worn as car has a very sloppy rear end. -Warning lamp for Hicas currently displaying not really to sure about this my undrstanding is this is to do with the 4wheel steer system …

Hi all I'm a newbie :biggrin: I'm off tomorrow to hopefully buy my first Zed. Just hope its as good as it looks! Can anyone advise if there is a decent garage in the Wiltshire area? Also are Adrian Flux the best to go to for insurance? Ive heard that I should be able to get classic car cover on a 92yr, is this true? Cheers, Chris.

Hey all, Hoping to join the Zed club soon and currently looking at a nice 92 300zx non turbo 2+2. I have a quick question though, I did an insurance comparison through confused.com and entered the reg from the pic of the car on ebay and it comes up as a Twin Turbo! The advert description specifically states its non turbo, so not just a listing error. Is this common, or is it possible maybe the turbos have been removed or another engine put in. I imagine that if confused.com thinks its a twin turbo then that's what's on the V5? I can manually select a non turbo, but surely it should know from the reg... Thanks! Paul

Hi everyone, new here! Just purchased a 1990 300ZX, normally aspirated, manual, in pearlescent white. She's an import and has had quite a lot of cosmetic work recently done (new front spoiler, rear valance, resprayed, undersealed, refurbished gun metal grey allloys, new leather front seats, new black and white interior, new carpets, steering wheel, gearknob etc etc). This is my first ZX though I've thought about getting one for ages. Not new to Japanese motors though, having owned 4 x Preludes (I love 'em!) Had one third gen, and three fourth gens (two 2.0 and one 2.2 VTEC that was heavily modified). Pictures will be posted when I get some taken....... …

Hi, just picked up this 91' N/A fairlady for a steal. I currently drive a RB25det S14a but had forgotten how nice the z32 was to drive:turned:

Hi All! Im a future newbie to Z cars! Having checked insurance and prices, i recently realised a Z was in my price range, and since then Ive very quickly decided my MX5 is a bit slow! However, since ive only ever seen one on the roads, ive no idea what to look out for! Is there anyone around Leamington or Coventry who wouldnt mind sparing an hour of their time sometime this weekend? I know it'd be really helpful to talk to an enthusiast before looking at cars myself! If anyone can spare a bit of time, id be most grateful! I'm looking at getting a SWB, turbo manual if anyone has anything similar? Thanks in Advance and looking forward to joining the com…

Hello all I'm not a 300zx owner at the moment, but I'm thinking about one for my next car. At the moment I'm driving a 2.2 VTEC Prelude, and have had it for around 18 months. It's fantastic, and a great balance between being fun and practical, and very good as a daily driver. However, I'll probably be faced with a wife wanting babies in a few years, so my time with sporty coupes is limited and I'd like to try one other before the family car era beings... I'll be looking for a sporty coupe with upwards of 250bhp. I'm considering a modified 200sx, but for the money, I've realised I could get a non modded 300zx with more power. I also think the 300zx look…

Hi all, My name is Anthony and I recently purchased a red 300zx TT (Manual) Fairlady. I had her on a stand at Heatwave 2010 and was delighted it brought the attention of your Ireland Rep Tulip. It was great to meet you and thanks for pointing me in the direction of this site. Anyways thanks for having me and Im looking forward to being a member. Here are some pictures of my Lady. And a couple of pictures from when it was previously owned.

theres a rumour goin round that ive been spotted cruisin in mi pearlescent white baby well id like to thank whoever started that 1 coz if theres one beautiful truth with bein a zed owner, u aint got no chance of anonimity (hope to hell i spelt that right) but serious folks im proud to be involved in the labour of love they call z ownership she is my pride and joy i look forward to meetin up with u guys at some point thanks bully.
