General Discussions - Non 300ZX

Look on this site. http://www.ttzed.com/products/products_index.cfm?cat=45&grouping=3&title=Key%20Blanks&do=list They say if they get an order of 500 people they can get the classic titanium key to be made again. I am sure there are over 500 people in this world who want a titanium key. I would have another one :D The price is in Austrailian $ so $100 the asking price, is about £40. BARGIN!!!! Considering I have seen them go on ebay for over £150 because there are none left, and I have heard stories that some of those not fitting as they where too wide or something. These will be Nissan OEM ones. :D :D :D :D Come on I know there are load…

Just sorted my new car. It's a 205 1.9Gti with a 1.6 gearbox. Slow as **** but will cost me next to nothing to run and repair... And might I add, apart from missing a few hundred BHP, it's actually quite fun to drive ;) It's got urgency and responsiveness and a being there type feel that the 300 hides well. I will miss the mad torque power fuelled unstopable shove of the 300 though ;) Oh and the unflappable composure the Zed has.... And the stunning looks of the Zed..... And the georgeous interior and "just right" feel of the Zed...... Ohhhhhhhhhhhh........ :( Sniff.... Nevermind, I will one day be a Zed owner again, but all I have to…

Amazingly the small amount of damage on this zed (pic) has actually caused the dashboard to split open and the steering wheel/ coloumn to pull out of shape too! Sadly another one for breaking. (has leather too!) Jeff TT

I was the black one following you (well trying to, damned traffic kept getting in the way!). Had me laughing like a nutcase by the time I'd got to work after our antics :D (even if I did narrowly miss pulling out into the side of that Shogun who'd decided to pull in at the same time..)

Ok, to try to combat the constant "Where can I get insurance?" threads, can everyone please post with the following : Which Insurance company Telephone Number of company Whether the Zed is UK or J-Spec Whether mods are allowed Whether it's a first or 2nd car Rough insurance quote. I'll then make something up. Maybe it's something that can be sent to all new Users when they Register or something... I'll look into it. Maybe it's time to have a NEWBIE forum...with all these things in it.

Got to http://www.google.com -then type in "weapons of mass destruction" including the speech marks. -then click on "I'm feeling lucky" -then read carefully! .........LOL :D

dials dials

Any body got English instructions on how to fit and operate, mine only come with Japanese and by Japanese is a little rusty :confused:

I just got a mail from a member of this forum called Roy Hayes. He sent me a few pictures. He decided to have a bash at retrimming his interior and what can I say - The boy done well :D More pictures Here

Mac, Having seen your new pic on your threads I can honestly say I never imagined you would have Long Hair but there we go at least I know not to pick and argument at Billing with a long haired guy :D

Copied and pasted from Scoobynet.....and then Supra forum... ----------------------------------- Just been round the M25 (Essex - Herts section) and spotted 14 Yes!! FOURTEEN new Gatsos!!! These aren't temporary ones on trailers either, but fixed!!! Most of them still had bags over them saying "Not in use" but I don't suppose it will be long before they are!! They are between Junc 27 (M11) and Junc 26 (Waltham Abbey) and are on both sides of the carriageway (7 clockwise and 7 anti-clockwise) These may have been spotted before by others on here but I haven't noticed a thread so I thought I would post the warning!! BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!!!! …

seen a zed in the thames valley auto trader very cheap 1990 needs a new gearbox i think the price is only £1695

I was looking to buy a set of VTR alloy wheels for my daughters Citroen Saxo. They are about £100 a set on Ebay. Being a good guy, I decided to check with Direct Line to see if it would make any difference to the policy. They quoted an additional premium of 20%, extra £100 excess and as the car would be modified my daughter could not drive it until she is 25. They consider alloys, s/s exhausts, spoilers etc turn the car into a modified one. This is also the case with a Z. Even if you replace the exhaust with a stainless one, this is a mod and you could have a shock if you tell your insurers. So take care.

I was behind him on jnct 20 M5 roundabout. I think he thought he'd leave me standing, as we went down the slip road we went from 30 mph to 120 and he didnt pull an inch on me , i was quite chuffed :D ferrari performance at 1/10 price.

Just like to thank Phil at C&S Wood for the great work on my car. I had the cambelt changed along with the usual things you change when you have this done. After the work the car has never idled better. I always pride myself that my car had a nice idle, no irratic fluctuation and bang on 750rpm. But now it is even smoother. It used to hesitate very slightly at idle, but now that has completely gone. I was sat in traffic on the M6 and the sound and smooth idle of the car could have sent me to sleep it was so pleasent. :D The car was cleaned after the work, like always, and I think they even cleaned the door sills by the looks of it. A part that even I…

I am doing a servey on what boy racer modification give you the most power as I have heard conflicting information. So vote which you think give you the most power increase.

Well, I'm busy drowning my sorrows. I've managed to kill my zed. Coming off a roundabout on slightly wet roads. Guess I must have been a bit enthusiastic with the power. Lost the back end, tried to recover it but didn't have enough space. Hit the railings with the front, span and clipped the back too. Haven't had the chance to fully check out the damage yet but it looked like front & rear bumpers, both headlights, air filters/fan/radiator & god knows what else under there, bonnet, and front wings, tailgate & rear off side. Looks like a write-off :( Trying to be philosophical about it. I guess any crash where no one is hurt is a win of sorts …

Am I right in thinking that you can do this without involving solicitors for about £130 or similar? (no Macca the cement boots and lake trick costs more than that). There is no kids involved just property and its an amicable split. Anybody?

Greg Macaulay, one of the most active, knowlegable, friendly, and generous Z car enthusiast's in a canadian Z club had a heart attack yesterday. He is in the hospital until Fri or Sat when he is expected to go home and fully recover. Greg is the owner of a perfect red 240 that he did a frame-off on. Greg is pretty well known around the older Z and Datsun 510 realm as an expert and go to guy in the pacific northwest. He lives in Victoria BC and is the anchor man in the Vancouver Island Datsun Enthusiast Club. Anyway his email address is . I think it would be really cool if when he boots up his computer and checks his mail there were a hundred get well messages …

Well guys, I think you've proved Craig's point. Mike
