Newbies - let yourselves be known

Hi guys, just bought my first 300ZX last week and am loving it so far! My recent cars have been 2.8 Golf VR6's and 2.2 Honda Prelude's but I wanted to step up to some turbo-charged, RWD action. :cool2: It's pretty much standard I think with the exception of a couple of bits and pieces. It was imported from Japan around 2004. There are a couple of jobs that need doing - some more important than others though..... I'm looking forward to being it's owner.

Signed up ages ago, but just realised I never put a thread up, sorry. So hello, I don't own a 300zx, I drive a 1992 Primera eZX, but thought I'd pop on and learn more about the 300's etc... hope you don't mind. Gazza

Hey all just joined and a proud owner of my first 300zx TT. I will post some pics as soon as i find where my daughter has hid the cam. What can I say ! everyone of my mates said i was mad to buy a 20yr old sports car,but we all know better dont we.... Had my first kick in the nuts with it this week tho when i went to get the aircon gased, damm R12 gas but sorted now! loads and loads of question to ask but the first is, can you find out the spec of your Z from the vin plate? p.s i may post in the wrong place from time to time so be nice when pointing it out and my spelling sucks :)

Last night i purchased my first Zed :D after trading in my clio 182 cup, lost a lot of money but so far worth it. i now own a 1991 Auto twin turbo 2+2 z and its amazing, the sence of presence on the road is overwhelming. i got my first of very few mods this morning...Aero wiper blades! ;) needs work doing such as new heater matrix a service and some fibreglass filler also i think the NS front damper is knackered. Also any got any good ways to clean up the original mats its as if they have been dipped in Mcdonalds chip fat ovens then been dragged through a quarry so advice on that would be helpful. so anyway yeah, hey all.

hi everyone - i wanted to say hello. I have a 1993 Japanese import 3L TT - and it's a beauty. Having trouble finding a knowledgeale garage... Nissan can't get parts anymore, unless you wait months... does anyone know if ZTech are still operating? Or Zed Cars? Any suggestions appreciated - i travel between London and Wiltshire. Thanks...

hello all, just joined the forum this pm as I am at the moment in the process of looking for a 300ZX to buy. However as I am a member of the Almera Owners Club, I know better than to buy a car without consulting people like yourselves to find out what I should look out for when buying a ZX... So - can I ask: What is everyone's take on the N/A version - is it good or do I stick to the twin turbo? What is the difference in performance like? What should I look for as give aways that a car has had a bad past other than the obvious? What do you guys pay in insurance and are there any good deals for insuring these cars? I can't think of any mo…

Haven't actually got a Z yet, I have just sold my MR2 so am in the market for a Z! Looking for some tips on insurance - I'm 37 and female so hoping not to pay thru the nose for fully comp so any recommendations would be great. Seen a couple of Zs online which I am hoping to view this week... Cheers all :clap:

Hey guys, i already posted a couple of months ago (had a few problems with a dodgy Z i bought). but just here to say hi!

Hi all, Had a few fast and normal cars, sold a 250hp front driver early this year and been looking to take my first step into powerful rwd. Was totally sold on rwd when I went out in my Merc 190 in the snow :). Joined to look up some info, have a chat and possibly classifieds....

Hi all, Just a quick hi to everyone here, Im new to the Z scene but everyone Ive spoken to seems really friendly and genuinely passionate about this motor - which is nice :) Mine is a '91 UK manual TT, its got a zeemax front bumper and rear spoiler, finished in ferarri red, 18" piaa split rims, and HIDs. engine wise.... no idea! lol currently in the workshop having cambelt and water pump replaced, but according to my mechanic (who also owns a uk na Z) its quick! Ive just changed the pads and while i was under there noticed it had tokico whites on it. Thats about all i know, but Im learning... as things pack up! lol Anyways, Hope to see so…

Hi guys, Im from Harrogate, North Yorkshire and recently bought a TTZX. Unfortunately, the trader i bought the car from didnt tell me that the head gasket had gone on the left bank of the engine (oh, and he said it was imported witha 100k kilometers....when it turns out it is a UK spec with 100K miles.....). After refusing to take the car back after two days of me actually having it, Its now into trading standards arms and im left with a beautiful looking red ZX which i've now had to store....:-( Im more than certain im going to get my money back for it, and was interested to know if anyone knows of anyone/anywhere that specialises in ZX's? Cheers guys, …
