General Discussions - Non 300ZX

Hope you have a great Day :hyper: P.S. Happy anniversary for tomorrow as well ;) Discalmer: the picture above is a link to Hamsterhideout.com. This image has not been copied or altered in anyway

Just been reading an amusing thread over on 300club, so thought Id start one over here basically, what was your reaction when you 1st drove a 'stage 3' or more Z? I myself went from stock, to 15psi, Zcentre downs, intake and Drager cat back, and I cried with fear, 2nd time i punched it i cried with delight :) Then went hunting lol :)

One side of the undertray dropped on my daily driver (mysteriously not long after it had been in a main dealer)... Anyway, took it into Kwit-Fit Saturday morning because I had the Z jacked up, and I was buggered if I was taking all that down to sort the other car out... ...so he sticks it on his ramp, has one look at it, comes back in reception and tells me it's all well shagged and it was strictly a main dealer job, and it's all got wedged cos I've been driving around like that etc (which I haven't.) So just now I go outside, I jack the front up, I have a look under there and I find two missing bolts. Well, screws actually, with Torx connectors on (German …

Anyone bought Max Power august addition my Zed on page 125 its nice to see a proper car in that mag and not just fords??? :hyper: HKS Vortex Back Boxes, Stainless Steel Exhaust De-cat, Bilsten Suspension, Head Light Sensors, Flamer Kits, HKS Valve Controller, Greddy Clocks, (Fuel , Exhaust ,oil, Engine, Water, Boost) HKS Dump Valve, Super Chip with piggy Backs 555 injectors , Paddle Clutch Recaro Seats Twin HKS Air Filters, Alpine Full Boot Install , In Car CD Changer, Mini Disk Player, 1990 Import TT Dark Blue.

Been talking to a few people and it seems their injectors maxed out at 15psi!! Now to some, the solution to this is new 550 injecotors but expensive! An alternative but less desirable is an adjustable FPR, will delay the function of the injectors but might take up some slack of the old fpr and icrease the pressure to avoid detontation?

Just purchased my first 300zx twin turbo today. Part exchanged with my much loved 200sx S14a :( Hopefully the zed will be as good as my old 'hundy' and I wont miss her too much. The car has 18" Enkai wheels and HKS super drager exhaust. The car will be ready tomorrow so I will post some pics up. It was purchased from a dealer and is a JDM car. He didnt know much about it. So I have a few questions: Does the zed have a strut base as standard (in the boot) ? My car had a nice alumminium jobby and was wondering if its an standard or after market part. How much are these worth ? The car was lowered and the loweing springs were green. I saw these and thou…

Guys, Yesterday driving home I had a blow out, not a slow puncture, just "buff" and then a "rumble rumble"............going through Market Harborough... Anyway, I pull into a side thinking "f*ck!" and get otu to have a look! My passenger tyre blew out but this is what happend (see image)... Now, the rest of the tyre is good but it looks like its been rubbing for some time but I never noticed it before? Does this happen on anyone else's? My tyres are 225/40/18 on the front..... So, I call the AA as I dont have a jack in the car (soon to be addressed) and he comes along and proceeds to jack the car up, after wedging a cheese?!? under the front wh…

Might be an idea to take a few tools ;) Better not forget my tent LOL

Because of all the free crossnet mins on mobile phones these days my BT home phone is never used for outgoing calls. If i had my phone changed to incoming calls only I dont think you pay for line rental but would this stop my broadband? In theory I thought it wouldnt because you are not actually dialing out with broadband but I dont know. And I cant get Telewest or NTL in my street so thats a non starter. Paul

Some pics of my new bonnet :hyper: , cheers Alex :cool: Saw your car at SE - did you say it was gonna be ready for this weekend??? I've sprayed the mesh silver to match the silver mesh on my 99 front and given the the bonnet a t-cut session. Wait til you see the underside ;) What do you think? :) Cheers Pete

Hi guys, As it's not a zed so I figure this is the place to put this (move if not) If you’re looking for those bits 'n' pieces for the shed: L reg. Vauxhall Astra merit (1994) 1.4 petrol Mileage = 130500 MOT until September 2004 Long/regular service history Blown head gasket - hence immobile. Otherwise mechanically good New water pump, new(ish) belts, good battery, tyres good all round (plenty of tread) Body work - good condition (white) - some stone chips, scraps Interior - good condition (blue) This was a good workhorse until it when bang. I'm looking to be rid of the whole car so will not break for parts If there …

Dude, Never got chance to say thanks properly over the weekend for going above and beyond what's expected (as usual) I got the pipes on the day I wanted them after you posted them the day before!!! and they had to cross over from the Isle Of Man............. ........Still no gaskets but my plugs are in the post now..... Thanks again fella, some beers being brought for you at Billing, I really apprecaite all the graft you've put in for me. :D Matty.

Just searched the forum to see if anyone else had posted this and cant find any matches so i thought i'd give it a try: http://inappropriatewebsite.com/carwhistle.wmv This clip made "Bubb Rubb" famous! :rofl: :rofl:

How often do chance like this come up? cruising down the motorway at 60 letting my heart settle after a blast and a Gallardo approtches in your Mirror i slowed to 50 and got ready :) he pulled up along side looked laughed and floored it So did I :) bearing in mind this was brand new 04 delivery miles from a local performance showroom so still a bit tight guess who won?

along the lines of MOTAS and The Crimson Room, but pretty short. Chasm

Anyone know of one?

I found this on another site and thought you guys(/gals) might appreciate it. A letter written by a heartbroken man to his estranged partner Dear Audrey: I know the counsellor said we shouldn't contact each other during our "cooling off" period, but I couldn't wait anymore. The day you left, I swore I'd never talk to you again. But that was just the wounded little boy in me. Still, I never wanted to be the first one to make contact. In my fantasies, it was always you who would come crawling back to me. I guess my pride needed that. But now I see that my pride's cost me a lot of things. I'm tired of pretending I don't miss you. I don…
