Newbies - let yourselves be known

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!

11 year project finally finished , with a big thanks to Jim at power Zed , finally someone who knows what they are doing , will up load more images when the car is back from the detailers

Back after a few years away, what did I miss? ?

Hi folks iam a old member, I was known a nellys300zx iam know back on the lookout for another zed , some of the older group members will remember my old black Zeds it good to be back on the zed hunt ?

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.

Greetings everybody, I thought I would join up as no doubt this will probably be the best place to learn more about this beautiful platform the Z32 and no doubt a wealth of knowledge by the veterans on this site. i'm on the lookout and I'm ready to commit to buying my first Z. to have caught my eye on eBay at the moment both of them are lovely red and our both auto and Na. hopefully being more attainable as the prices are all over the place at the moment some are very unrealistic.. The first red one is a 1993 not much of an advert it has a new MOT paint looks good and so do the trim pieces I've noticed it's located south of Lo…

Hi all, I’ve just joined as I’m hopefully going looking at a 94 z na this weekend. Is there anything I should be looking out for, it’s got 50k on the clock and has a couple of niggles with drivers window, spongy brakes and looks like the bumper has some small damage. It’s up for 4350 but was going to try and see if I could get it for less as it has those problems.

Hi guys, new to the site, I have my eye on a 300zx project that needs some Work, used to belong to a member on here called ‘grandad jack’ looking at old threads it seems he likes to make cd’s for trips! anyone know the car or the history at alll? I know very little about the car, just that the owner has passed away, I would think it’s a non turbo even tho insurance companies seem to bring it Up as a turbo. J17pul reg silver car, big spoiler kit is the reg. be great to find more info . Having issues uploading a pic. Ben

Hey all . Just picked up my lifelong dream car . A 2+2 1990 tt red with 100k miles . It's a jap and is in good condition. Has aftermarket japspeed exhaust and intercooler with remap. I need to try and find a timing belt kit for the 120k service . Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction ?

IMG_3291.pdfIve owned my 1994 black, twin turbo 2+2 Manual since I was 21, that's nearly 13 years ago!, it has been sat in a rotten asbestos garage for the past 6 years. when I put the car in it was in pretty good nick, now its clear rust has started eating away, the sills have gone and the paintwork is getting worse by the day.IMG_3291.pdf I know I should be ashamed of myself for letting this classic get in such a sorry state, but as the old saying goes, life gets in the way! I have no intention of getting rid of the car, so I am trying to etch out a plan to restore the car, I know this car will be a valuable asset the more the years pass by. Looking for people…

Hi all, Just registered as I'm looking at getting myself a Z... (TT or an NA, with a Manual box). My girlfriend had an accident in my old MX6 and spun her, So I'm looking at something new and improved, faster and much more fun, I aimed at keeping the MX6 for a very long time and spent allot of time and plenty of funds on it, So I would very much like to fun the new car at the same standerd but, I would really like to know about running costs and well known places to obtain spares? I would guess £3000, £4500 would get me something in reasonable condition? Many thanks, Adam

Been away in the world of LR Defenders for a while now (currently on my third ?) but thought I’d resurrect my membership and say hi. My LWB TT is gone, the VH45DE conversion got sold part way through as I needed the money, the spare shell went around the same time and I’m now down to our LWB NA (not to mention a metric fvck-tonne of spares ?) which has been off the road with electrical issues for quite a few years now. Just need to find a decent Z specialist to get her back on the road! Leigh.

Hi all. Well I was an active member on here over 10 years ago but with one thing and another had to leave the 300zx fun. Some familiar names still on here from all those years ago.

I live up near Nottingham and, Well I have always skirted around buying a 300zx but never really knew much about them, other than its beautiful shape. So one came up (it's N/A) and I decided to go for it, it was also the right price with just enough work to keep me intrigued and intersted. It arrived Friday 9th April and it will be getting motd, serviced and added to my collection. I look forward to pecking all your heads about things I should fix or how to's etc and mostly meeting up with some of you.

Hey all, My name is Dimitry from Southampton, and I thought I'd spend a minute to finally introduce myself. I've had quite a selection of cars over the years and this is currently my 3rd Z32 (I had 3x 350z and even a 260z RHD! ? ). She is a 1993 TT JDM Import Manual LWB Targa top... Had the car for 4 years but sadly at the start of the ownership I also had a rx7 and a 600bhp Supra so 300 was almost unused. I finally had a huge service done to it and it's back on the road, hoping to resolve further minor issues and use it a lot more through 2021 as I've sold the others now and need a nice daily ? I'm a Project Engineer in the medical industry by trade b…

Hi all, recently bought myself my first 300ZX S1, 1992 manual N/A in black. I've always wanted one of these ever since I was a spotty teen during the Max Power era of the early 2000s. Now Im 30 and bought one with a few period correct 'modifications', all I want to do is revert it back to factory! Funny how the mind and taste matures... Anyway, along my journey Im hoping for plenty of veteran advice (and parts) and Im looking forward to getting involved and sharing my experiences with one of my childhood dream cars!

Hello folks, I'm Scott and I'm openly an eccentric collector of the weird, wonderful and quirky from Skateboards, Bmx's, classic Vw's, 90's cars, classic plant, Land Rovers and even Russian military trucks! I've recently managed to acquire a Z32 through a sale of a dead fellas car collection, there was an intermediary involved so I couldn't get any information on the previous owner other than what I have found in the milk crate deep pile of history that came with it. I was wondering if any of you guys would know if the previous owner had been on here? The car is a 1990 black TT auto with a distinctive Private plate that ends 3005 and a ve…

Hi All Looking to buy my first 300zx - still love these cars and I've actually always wanted one. got some cash saved to purchase now. I have a budget between £3k-£5k, looking for a N/A (not fussed about the power and leaning towards a N/A mainly because of the reliability, want the looks and has to be totally originally/stock with no mods) I've seen this one on ebay which basically ticks all my boxes, looks good. any advice/thoughts from anyone else? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1990-Nissan-300-ZX-3-0-Auto-FairLady-Z-Targa-Grey-23-000-Low-Miles-Immaculate/173888346567?hash=item287c8d99c7:g:VXAAAOSw78xceHD8 Regards Jav

Hello all, I have seen a car for sale that seems to be too good to be true. However, I know nothing about these cars, so I would appreciate any links to information on different marks, engines etc. Which models to go for, and ones to avoid. Are the JDM cars the best as in all other Japanese cars that I have had dealings with?

Hi Recently picked up a TT Z32 manual on a G reg. Car is in good condition and runs really well. Hoping to maintain and keep the car running well. Wanted to ask if anyone knows how to repair the rear aerial? Will get some pictures uploaded Thanks Tony

Hello. I’m not exactly a newbie but I shall say I am. I joined here many years ago when I had a blue 300zx lwb tt manual. Over what must be +10years and many cars later, I’ve returned to the one car I could never get of my mind, obvs the Z. Marking the turn of UK independence, I thought it fitting that today I picked up my Jap import Z. This time a 1992 lwb na auto. I can’t be arsed with power chasing anymore so it will get a little attention. Has come with an exhaust, coilovers, and lots of damp. However there is minimal rust that I can see and has a few teething issues. currently has had a new alternator and and that’s it. Sitting currently at 9…
