Hi everyone, I’ve finally got myself a Zed! Very happy with it, drove it 90 miles home and it didn’t miss a beat! It’s not immaculate and will need some bits but it runs nicely, drive great and has an MOT! ? I think I might do a member journal about it as I have some plans, nothing ground breaking, but I want to make sure this car is looked after. Currently on about 90k but 70k of that is KM. It didn’t come with any history so I’m doing it properly and taking it down to Jimmer for a full belts service and a good going over to see what I’ve actually bought!

Hi, I'm about to bid on a 300ZX which was imported from Japan a few years ago. The car is advertised as a completely original 1996 Twin Turbo but I'm a little suspicious as there is no boost pressure gauge on the speedo. The car does have the intercooler inlets on the lower front bumper and the VIN plate codes do suggest it's a turbo model. Has anyone else encountered a turbo model that doesn't have the boost pressure gauge though? My understanding is that it was standard fit in all sales markets. The car was converted from km to mls when it was imported and all I can think is that the dashboard was replaced at that time, with this glaring oversight not noticed. Stil…

New member just saying hello. 1990 2+2 TT Jap import bought a month ago, needs light restoration recommissioning, just working through rusty suspension. It seems it was a leaf connector so all rads, Intercoolers and condenser rotten, apart from that all seems solid and fired up first time. Intend to do 120k service even though only showing 96k km as not much history. The AC is puzzling me at the moment all UK stock seems to be discontinued, could get a condenser from US but not found much else, so would be interested to hear if any alternatives or UK suppliers Thanks Andrew

His loss! Bottom end gone, engine re-rebuilt, turbos upgraded to T28 hybrids, suspension completely overhauld (Japspeed fully adjustable all round), respray after I ditched it ? and fibreglass front end too. cid:F2FD92DD-ED4B-4336-8386-474622DCEDE4 cid:C90493C0-99DB-48C1-9813-C1F99137C099 cid:D110CE1B-64AB-4918-9601-1FBADD0D6420 cid:8234CAA9-E455-4E0E-9EC7-109794F02B27 Many questions, the main one being;- why do turbo seals leak so easil…

Hi folks, probably won't be on here much as I mostly use fake book but thought I'd make an entry anyway. Took ownership a couple of weeks back of a red manual TT import with hks turbos and a few other hks bits, blitz 03 wheels, stillen front end and smooth body and door handles. The owner unfortunately passed away a few weeks back so thought some of you would like to know the sad news, would be nice to track down any sort of build thread if he had one that is. I believe the car is known, it has club stickers on the rear quarters windows prompting me to join. I am currently in the process of bringing it back to life as it has several rust spots, and…

Hi Guys, I have been a 200sx s14a owner for nearly 17 years now. Always liked the 300zx, love the look and the idea of a twin turbo engine! I think I want to get one this year. Couple questions. What are the most common issues to look out for? And.. can the NA lump be turbo charged? Or should I just get a turbo to start with. It's seems there are manual NAs available and auto TT lol Apologies if these are commonly asked questions. Feel free to share links to any threads that cover this. Meanwhile I shall go have a look now. Ps. I had a 370z Nismo V2 which I bought brand new in 2017. Sold it last year. Also have a civ…

Hi guys. i probably should have joined this forum many years ago.. Ive been lurking for around 10 years. I own 6 Z32 cars (2 are parts cars), and have a truly insane amount of spares that i have accumulated whilst modifying my car over the past ten years. Iv'e finally decided its way too much as i can only drive one at a time and will be selling all but my two best highly modifed cars that i have the space to store inside and i have way more spares than ill ever need or use, so iv'e decided to give them away free to anyone who needs them. If anyone needs any spare parts for their zeds just let me know what your after and you can have it for the price of the…

Hi All, Just to introduce myself. Am the proud owner of a twin turbo manual that I acquired a couple of weeks ago - have been dreaming of getting a 300zx for several years.... It's UK spec and was converted from auto about 15 years ago. Generally it appears in good condition with very little rust anywhere since it has been garaged for 20 years. However I can't drive it at the moment since just had surgery on my shoulder - may keep it boxed for now and then get it out again in the spring if I can resist for that long! I'll be doing lots of servicing on it since I'm not 100% sure how up to date it is on various fluids and filters etc. The cam belt was done 2…

Hey all. Im new to Z32’s ? Well it’s been a long time since i posted on here. Thanks to Richard Smith and the committee members i’m back on. Hope all on here that remember me are well and hope to catch up with you all at some point. Those that don’t know me, i’m looking forward to getting to know you. Ive recently bout John Dixon’s NA manual SWB Slicktop. As i’m a bilateral leg amputee, the manual conversion will be up for sale soon as will the VG30DE. I’ll be doing a swap i’ve wanted to do to a slicktop for years, don’t worry, it’s still a Nissan engine. Obviously the only let down is it’ll have to be an automatic gearbox for now. I’l…

Hi Thank you for allowing me to join . I used to own a 300zx U.K. car back in the 90s loved the car and I have just purchased a U.K. manual to restore .. I was just wondering if any of the previous owners might be on here .. last owner has had a number of years and it has not moved a wheel for 10 years .. Alas it has come to me with no paperwork so be great if I can find a bit and more importantly any previous owner details .. Registration number G247WUD ..

Hi all I have recently become the custodian of this UK supplied 300ZX, and I'm trying very hard to save it from the breakers yard. I am looking for any tips or advice that will assist me to do this to the correct standard. I would like to get it back on the road, to show it and enjoy it. It has already caused a bit of a stir amongst the local kids who thought it was a Ferrari, but were still wowed by it's great looks and sound. Many thanks Paul

Hi guys Just got myself a 1990 300 tt which had been imported from the UK. Needs a bit of work but basically sound. The normal road tax on a 3 litre machine in Ireland is about €1400 but that drops to €56 after it hits 30 years so it's affordable. There's a decent 300 ownership in Ireland, Z31, 32 and a few 33's and 34's but the Z32's are in the majority. I've signed up here for info/advice and general knowledge and look forward to being around for a while. Great cars and great owners!

Hi lads I'm new to the 300 scene living in Ireland and by the looks of things these cars are damn hard to find over here, I may have to venture to the UK for one any suggestions.
