General Discussions - Non 300ZX

When things in your lives seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee. A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.…

Just wanna give a big thank you to Mark and Martin for helping me out with my Zed...........i have been nothing but an absolute pain to these guys with my constant paranoia and phone calls and i am glad to say these guys took it with a pinch of salt and went out of their way to help me out..........they offered assistance were not many other mechanics would do or go out of their way for.............remarkable service! Went down to Horsham and gave Martin the car and he absolutely transformed my Zed back to how it was back in the good old days before the bodywork was started on............the car feels so alive and i couldint express how much these guys went out of th…

With my desktop. I posted a couple of days ago that I'd come across some Windows Themes (here , well I'm using one of them at the moment, but didn't like the wallpaper that was with it. Well I've found this one, of a 280ZX, which fits in with the overall effect of the whole theme. BTW, I want one of these 280's, I especially think this one is absolutely beautiful (All credit to it's owner PBT1 from the Z Club :bow: ) :cool:

After a break from the project, last week I got back into the swing of things: finished the plug and made the first negative mould (see below...rough on the outside, smooth on the inside...armadillo! :D). In the process of making a base for it then I'll be laying up again to make the first copy. Then it's be a case of grafting it to an OEM bumper, making the fog/air ducts, tidying it up then it's ready for the final moulding. If you say it quick enough it doesn't sound that bad! :D

just a quick question guys, is the ride of softest setting on the kyb agx similar to how a stock shock feels?

Hello folks! My name is Kenneth and i am from Norway, I own a 300zx TT 2+2 90mod. I am new to this forum and I find this as a very good forum, and it is nice to get in touch with other 300 owners! :hyper: :hyper:

This is yet another one of my pointless threads, but it's OK, I'm not having a go at anything, or voicing my opinion ;) What's the connection between a Nissan 300ZX and a Mazda RX7/8? You'll groan when The answer comes up ;) :rofl:

EDIT** Update in post 19 on page 2 of this thread!! As, unfortunately, the Group-Buy has now failed (NO Navans are available at the moment anywhere) I'm still on the lookout for one of these shifters. If anyone comes across one, or more, of these for sale, please let me know (cash waiting). Two traders on here have already tried, and I'm now told that there arn't any in Japan. I've also done an ebay search and come up dry. So it would be very much appreciated if anyone can put me onto one of these :bow: :bow: TIA

Does anyone know any bodyshops or anybody that does bodywork in essex area

done it...1000 of the buggers

Stole this from another site: Ok as promised i have tried to find out as much as possible about the Tesco Super Unleaded (99 RON) Unfortunately i have been unable to find out what has been added nor where the fuel is sourced from (lots of red tape) however, there has been independant testing on this fuel alongside BP Ultimate and Shell Optimax. Due to confidentiality im unsure as to weather im able to discuss the finer details though ;ets just say the research showed BHP gains with tesco 99 to be significantly greater than shell and BP. Coupled with the fact that Tesco is almost certainly cheaper if not the same price as these other forecourts the wise man would …

Hell, Some idiot in a stupid white van wiv his stupid mates just drove into the back of my Zed. Bang. Stupid B******s. A**h****. Aghhhhhhhhh :shock: S**T. My neck aches big style. Then in shock I reversed the b****y Zed into the front drive when I got home shaking and f****D the side mirror against the brick post. Agghhhhhhh. I hate the road...the twin exhausts are out of alignment an all! Ohhh...today is not a good day for me..I need support.. :cry:

Literally! I had a restless night yesterday and I just remembered what it was... I dreamt I was in my Zed, trundling along through a village doing about 30; it was raining but other than that all was fine. I then got to the national speed limit bit and put my foot down... nothing... the car merely inched faster, and I had a Fiesta come right up behind me and start getting irate. I kept backing off, and flooring it again all to no avail. I got so pissed off, but as you often do in dreams never stopped to check anything, just kept repetitively trying and failing the same thing over and over again! I was thinking massive boost leak, loss of compression, sodden filter, d…

i was stuck in traffice behind a E class merc. and there are 2 bloody kids facing me in the boot trying to get me to wave :nono: for 10 bloody minutes. bloody kids

Just came online to check up on this 300ZX meet just outside Los Angeles in Saturday and thought I'd stop and say hello. Only seen 3 300ZXs, but seen quite a number of the Z31s and also the 280ZXs. There are 3 of them on the way to the beach alone. It's pretty hot here, but there's a nice cool breeze of the Pacific Ocean that keeps the coastal areas cooler than the inland bits. San Diego's a really nice place. Saw a Porsche Carerra GT yesterday. Never seen one in real life. Tried to get a photo of it but couldn't in time.

I was coming home from my mates house the other night down the country roads with a car in front of me. The car in front went over some roadkill and by the time i saw what it was id gone over it at about 60, it made the biggest bang id ever heard, i thought it just hit the exhausts and carried on. I pulled in to a petrol station and looked around my car, the back bumper had been split in some places and it was covered in blood!! God knows what it was, i went to see if it was there yesterday and there was nothing, no blood or anything. Pics below with the blood wiped off.

Just looking on number plate sites found cool one for me SU55 STU, havent got the £1750 at the mo, But found E 1 and E 2, Both £500,000. Why the hell would you spend that amount on a number plate. If i had that kind of money to throw away on a plate, i can think of loads of better things to blow it on. To some money is clearly no object........ Also oap's who drive brand new volvos, with their wife sitting in the back, wearing driving gloves and a the big style dark sunglasses should be banned form using the road between the hours of 12:01am and 23:59pm AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
