Newbies - let yourselves be known

Hi all, I got my first Z 5 weeks ago off ebay for a decent price knowing that it needed a bit of tlc. Ive been rotary polishing for the past year and the pearl white paint wasnt too bad and i knew i could get it looking nice. It had coilovers with one shock leaking and worn leather seats. I actually stumbled across Jeff and Jamie at zedworld who gave me good advice on the shock and even squeezed me in 2 days later to put norm shocks on and a set of seats in good cond and all the boot vinyls and clear lenses. I am so impressed with the 300s performance it is a truly amazing car. Anyway the next 5 weeks i set about polishing and Detailing it and a new spoiler a…

Hi, My name is Gerry and I've just bought Leigh_L 's old car (nice motor, thanks Leigh). I only recently managed to crawl over the threshold of a half a century and decided that it was time to get back into Z's (Oh aside from the fact that my supra needed too much work to keep it on the road...lol). this is my fourth Z but my first 300, I owned 2 240's and one 260 back in OZ. cheers.

Hi guys, New to the forum, but i'm thinking about buying a TT for my next car. I've owner a few jap cars, few mr2 turbos, 3000gt etc, but now want something different. I loved the 3000gt, but i really want another rwd, so the 300 seems to be the way to go! I'm assuming that it'll probably be the same kind of speed as the mr2 turbo i have currently which is fairly standard? Well hopefully i'll have one soon but need to shift my current car first really! Anyway, I'm andy, 27, live in Horsham down south, hi!

Hi all, Names Alex, Im 21, From Bristol and kinda deal in Jap motors from home (on and off):rolleyes: Im looking to get a 300 as its kinda my dream car and now I can finally afford the insurance (£1800 on a turbo) Well not so much afford but at least they will give me a quote now! **EDITED** I would also take a non turbo but its gotta be modified. Anyways Hi all and hopefully I will be on here more often but I need to get one 1st!!! Cheers Guys, Alex

Hi, I bought my first ZXTT (Auto) a few weeks ago and I love it. It is running very well, boosting as it should and driving faultlessly with the exception of a slightly strange idle. The car idles fine for exactly 11 seconds, then the revs drop to about 500rpm for 4 seconds then go back up to about 800rpm for the next 11 seconds. Yes you really can set your watch by it! Any ideas anyone? (I have already adjusted the TPS so it is putting out the correct voltage and cleaned the Throttle Bodies which has made a slight difference) Thanks in anticipation..

Hi all. Been looking at z32's for a couple of years now, have just moved house so when I get the garage clear i'll be going for my first one (if I can find the right one)...

Hi all,got my zed a couple of weeks ago,bought it on ebay from a guy in fife who has two more! not for sale though. just waiting for engine bits from z1 motorsports (cambelt snapped :( cant wait to get her on the road!! has anyone any info on my car H206BAL? im gonna subscribe next week might even make the nurburgring!!

Woop!!!! Just bought this off a nice chap from round Midsomer Norton way, a nice white 1992 uk spec: (photos from a facebook album, not sure if they hot link ok) It does have an intermittant high idle and a small patch of rust on the inner rear wheel arch drivers side, right at the bottom of the skirting. Hope to get these rectified once I've sold my Calibra (that I've had for 5 years and shall sorely miss). Fun times ahead!

Hi there, I currently own a Toyota starlet glanza v, And I've always been a fan of the z32... I'm now seriously considering a z32 non turbo, my main concern however is fuel usage, as I only have to space for one car and do quite a few miles a week. What kind of mpg can I expect from a n/a? ( I now it's a big motor and wont be amazing, but it's gotta be better than the n/a supra I was previously considering, @ 18mpg!) many thanks!
