General Discussions - Non 300ZX

Anyone removed them? I hear that Jap Imports of which mine is have or could have a restrictor in the exhaust. Also I would like to de cat it as its a 1990 and my understanding is that they don't need um for MOTY before 1992?? Also any info or links on De catting the main Cats most helpful. Its got a cat back system on it but even though louder than standard not by much and I obviously want more V6 growl!! Cheers Rossy

Incase you didn't know the story behind this, Lee Hughes Merc hit a Megane, killing one, injuring the 3 others in the Megane, he promptly left the scene (with a mate, leaving 3 others in his car!) and went AWOL for 36 hours, eventually turning himself into the police for questioning, after 16 hours of questioning; Lee Hughes has been charged with; 1. Causing Death By Dangerous Driving 2. Leaving The Scene Of An Accident 3. Failing To Report An Accident I hope he gets what he deserves............ My betting is he went on the run as he was; a) Drunk b) drugged up c) Both And needed time to sober up or come down. Matty.

Tubs?? How many have seen this? Ebay tubs - greedy tastic!! Cheers Ben

Hello A couple of people at work have had an email which looks like it is from Microsoft, containing an "security update patch" to install. Microsoft never issue updates by email, so dont install it...or some Nigerian bloke will probably steal your PC, all your money, you family and your brown wings.... Pete

Oi you old git! I'm at work on a 20 meg pipe and Dual Xeon processors and I'm still having problems! God knows wot happens on a dial up!?! Sort it out!!!! :slap:

I have been looking on the net for good Car importers. I have found 2 or 3 but then the searches repeat themselves and I cant find any more. Does any one know of any? Stuart

I'm trying to upload Gallery (http://gallery.menalto.com/) to my web site and all that happens when I try to load the Installation Wizzard is the following message: app->devMode) && $gallery->app->devMode == "yes") { error_reporting(E_ALL); } else { error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE); } $GALLERY_OK=false; initLanguage(); ?> $value) { if (is_array($value)) { foreach($value as $sub_key => $sub_value) { $buf .= "\n"; } } else { $buf .= "\n"; } } } else { $buf .= "\n"; } return $buf; } foreach ($preserve as $key => $val) { if ($key && !isset($onThisPage[$key])) { print embed_hidden($key); } } // String-ize preserve list $preserve =…

Wes'side :cool: I dont get to drive the zed to work that often, but am bringing it in every day now til I get the Mondeo MOT'ed (lazy...) Now I've passed this light blue 300ZX Z31 loadsa times before and flashed or waved to him on most occasions, but no reaction :(. And this morning he acknowledged me :dance: Its the only one I've seen on the road. I quite like them, a bit (a lot?) dated but v retro. Anyone ever driven one? Pete

Apparently the police raided Michael Jackson's home earlier today. They found: Class A drugs in the kitchen, Class B drugs in the bathroom, and Class 4c in the bedroom Boom Boom :dance:

Seems like everybody I know has their Z off the road at the moment for one reason or another. Chris.

It seems to me that the for sale and wanted section don't have enough posts to warrant individual areas! It might give the site a cleaner look if we merge them! Also half the time people are selling and wanting the same thing on two different areas and not meeting up! Anyway you decide!

I dug these up in my copy of 'Nissan 300zx, The Enthusiast's Companion' by Ray Hutton, published in 1990. Speed/acceleration N/A 0-30 2.2, 0-40 3.5, 0-50 4.9, 0-60 6.7, 0-100 18.6 T T 0-30 2.1, 0-40 3.0, 0-50 4.4, 0-60 5.7, 0-100 15.2 Standing Quarter mile N/A 15.0 T T 14.1 Max speed N/A 143 T T 155 Is this accurate for stock? If so, the N/A seems closer than I thought, especially for a standing 1/4. Is this really wildly inaccurate? Seems like in certain circumstances an N/A can hold it's own. Like from a standing start. Is this another old argument? Would a stock T T in reality destroy an N/A in a standing 1/4?

What an arse of a job that was :rolleyes: Took me and a mate about 3 hours last night to fit the bugger. Getting the trim back on is the hard bit. I was trying to keep the hole in the susp tower trim as small as poss, whilst being able to access the strut brace nut and bolt, and get the trim back on over the back seat clip thingy :mad: Did it in the end, will post some pics up when I get them off me mate. Looks lovely, and I think I can feel some difference in driving, not a much roll round bends, maybe I'm imagining it tho, but I think there is improvement. Stu (SMW) - have you covered the holes with anything yet - what have you used? Cheers Pete

Hello, I want to spray my cambelt cover - to match the other bits I've colourcoded (again...pics soon :D ) How is this removed? Just a few nuts and bolts, or do any of the water pipes have to be moved? Cheers Pete
