Excuse the Flash but it's dark outside...........it doesn't look as harsh in normal daylight!! :D Matty.

or whos had the most zeds scrappers dont count steve

Was just having a look at http://www.newreg.co.uk for a vaguely 300 related plate to hide the age of my car, was trying various combinations and thought i'd give v6 a try... had to laugh when I saw the top result, the plate v6 is available for a bargain... wait for it... £80,495 !!!!!!!!!!!! fook. :shock:

I just found this in the ride section :rofl:

After getting the engine running at the weekend and not being able to get the clutch working I thought I was doomed not to get to Billing but there's hope again :hyper: Bled the clutch again for about the 8th time and loads of air came out. I think leaving it to stand for a few days has made air rise up from somewhere and been forced out this time. What a PITA :confused: Boy does it feel good to drive it again :D

Can anybody guide me in the purchase of some luverly 555 injectors? i think the standared ones have had it so i want to upgrade if poss. Am i wasting my money buying bigger ones? ive got hybrid tubs 15 psi boost and SE ecu.+ Wots a good price :confused:

Dude Bin Trying To Ring U About Ordering A Pair Of Apexi Bov's[kirbz Talked Me Into It]have U Got A Pair-of Bov's That Is :d

I feel i must share my experiences with this company so others dont make the same mistake! I ordered a 300ZX TT Engine from them and paid £1250 when i made the order, i then asked when it would be delivered, they said 2 days. 2 weeks later after numerous phone calls (47 in total) the engine arrives. By this time i was extremely miffed, as they took my money quick enough, but took their time delivering the engine. Anyway i had it delivered to John Nobles Motorsport in chesterfield, who promptly did a leakage test, i received a phone call from them telling me that the engine was duff, two cylinders were leaking 100% into each other, exactly the same problem …

Recently when I try to open a link that pops up a new window, it won't open. A new IE window opens, but it dosen't open the pag, just stays blank. When I close it I get a message saying this may be due to a pop up blocker. Any ideas

Anyone know of a free (or cheap) Active X control that I can insert into a VB project to represent fuel and timing maps ? Looking for something similar to excel surface plot (3D wire frame type plot). Cheers

Hello Not sure if anyone remembers my post about me ordering a zxTT from Japan and the boat sinking, well the import company finally found me a new oner and it is being shipped over soon! fingers crossed on it staying afloat this time. Could have bought one in UK in the month and a half it took to find a new one in japan, but hey-ho. Anyway, will subscribe soon as it arrives, along with asking lots of questions about the inevitable things that wil be wrong with it when it turns up!

Im selling my Z, it's time for a change - maybe another Z dunno yet. Is it worth putting it on ebay or are prices too low, anyone else sold their Z there? Cheers,

I have just been looking through the 'Cars for sale' section and I just can't belive how many Zed's are going for under 3k. I only bought mine last year for 4k and I would not consider it a 'Minter' but then again it is of average condition. It seems if I were to sell it now I would be lucky to get 2k for it. Have the prices really dropped that much in a year or is it just a few people selling up cheap?. What is going on with Zed prices? I did want to sell my Zed to part fund my trip to Australia but looks like it would not be worth it and I may as well just keep her stored considering the money I would get from a sale!

Hi all, it's been a while since I have posted anything on here but I thought I'd let you all know there is a new Import/performance specialists just opened in Kent. It’s called RGMOTORSPORT and is run by a guy named Rich, the quality of service he offers is to a very high standard and I have used his services on several occasions myself. Anyway they are based in Kent and there web address is http://www.rgmotorsport.co.uk or you can call Rich direct on 07786 523137. Well that’s enough from me, check out his site or give him a call for anything you need. See ya ;)

Hi all, A while ago you might remember this; Well, now it looks like this, I've done most of the work I wanted there are still a few things to do but it's a cast improvement; And the interior is sorted now, I thought it looked good when I retrimmed all the leather, but now I think its look0ing much better, makes the before picture look a bit skank, what do you all think? Your thoughts? Bit of a DIY job, I made the BOSS, made the handbrake and gearchange, made all the silver changes etc, but its getting there now I think, just gotta finish the gear stick and a couple of other things. Steve

After getting the Z ready to take off the plenum, ready to put the new one on, sorting all the bits needed etc, etc..... I have to put it all back together again as the gaskets have not turned up and the post don't work on Sunday's!!! :( The Z goes into the paint shop Monday morning for the week so I can't get it done next week :( this was the only weekend I had spare and I planned to get it done ready for billing. So it's gonna have to stay on the kitchen floor until I get another chance. So that'll be me leaving my bonnet closed at Billing. :( :( :( And I had a wasted journey this morning to collect some spark plugs, which were not where they should …

Any body fitted these kits and what horrors entails? cheers Dave :dance:

OK one of you folks out there may be able to shed some light on my thoughts. Smoke is caused through the PCV not working properly. Assuming I have the theory of the PCV system correct, oil (vapor) is transfered from the engine through the system into the throttle bodies via the PCV. Would fitting a can or filter of some kind just befor this stop the oil vapor and therefor stop the plumes of smoke and increase combustion? Did that make sence?

Finally decided it is DEFO going to be Sunday that i go to Billing. Want to get there early and miss all the traffic. What kinda time should i be trying to arrive at? Just dont want to spend ages in a jam after a long drive. Cheers

:rofl: :rofl:

If only...............
