Can't post in sales as not subscribed and it's free to a good home anyway as moving soon, way too much stuff and just want to get rid. HKS 3106-S N010 Single exit (RHS from memory but could be wrong), two piece, two box, cat back system with removable tail pipe baffle. Rear box and 4 1/2 inch tailpipe are stainless. Came off my NA about seven years ago as I preferred the balanced Mongoose look (probably a little loud for an old got like me too!). Solid but filthy as thrown in the garage straight off the car. Mild steel parts have very little surface rust and stainless parts would polish up really well. Can probably find gasket and bolts if I look hard. …

Had this car about a year now and at last got round to putting my ride section together a little to keep track of things(that's where all my freekin money's gone) http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=812

I notice in most members signature including my own the picture is of the rear of the zed is this the best view of a 300zx or is it because its the only view most people see:D is it your favorite view or not?

Hi there, relatively new to the 300zx game, have noticed that the rear centre brake light panel is shattered and the rubber trim underneath is loose, is there a website/place that anyone can recommend where i may be able to get a replacement part? Sorry if this is obvious elsewhere on the site, still finding my way around. thanks chaps. [/img]

Guys, I would like to install a new setup into the Z very soon and am looking for some expert help. I have got a double din centre console panel so will be needing a screen to suit as well as the following. 1. The system has to be discreet - i dont want a massive bassbox that fills the entire boot! 2. I would like a system that could run diagnostics through it and perhaps display oil/water temperatures etc as well on the screen. I do not want to fill the car with gauges so would prefer it to be on screen. Any ideas?

I like this commercial which was used in the US. In particular I like where it flashes the Porsche to pull over and let it by on the Autobahn :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHvm-dMUaFo&NR=1

I have a dilema guys. I have an E30 318is and a spare engine. I have an R5 turbo. I WANT a 300zx! I would like a 200sx i cant sell the bimmer, but the 5 is worth about £1500 insurance is no longer a problem. This is my dilema, my choices are. 1. Supercharge the spare engine, 2. Get a volvo 440 turbo engine and put it in the 5 3. Sell the 5 and get a 200sx 4. Or sell the 5 and get a 300zx Ive looked at an auto 200sx and 300zx and was much more impressed with the Z. I was wondering what you guys would do? I need your opinions especially between the 200 and 300 please, as your the nissan experts ofcourse ;)

Hi all, my rear arches are getting worse and its time to get them sorted, anyone got a step by step repair guide? is it best to rub down and fill or cut out and replace? Regards Andy

Heading towards Saltford,I was a passenger in a friend's van, only caught a glimpse as I looked up.

Finally............... my first ZED sighting, unfortunately I was driving a Celica GT, so would have been invisible to the driver of the Z. This is the first Z I've seen on the road so would like to meet other Zed heads near me for help and advice!!

Thanks to marcus :cool: gave them a quick clean up they could do with a *****cking with a buffing wheel when I get chance but look ok for now. they drive a hell of a lot smoother than my old ones too think my stock ones must have needed balancing

this light is coming on today when I press brake pedal. Didn't notice it the other day when I picked it up from the body shop but I pressume its from the perspex tail light panel having a brake light in before(red fairladyZ panel) and now it doesn't cos it broke at the body shop. Can anyone confirm this is what it is and I haven't knocked a brake sensor changing my wheels . If it is a brake light out bulb how can I get round it now I no longer have one other than putting a bulb in and tucking the bulb and cable away somewhere.

Junction 10 southbound. I came onto the motorway in front of you but you were only going about 60 so it was hard to allow you to pass and see much more of the car. I think the reg ended 300X

Put some commercial Unipart injector cleaner in my fuel, filled it up with super 99 and now its smokes on full boost, what looks to be like white smoke... Is this headgasket? Turbo`s? Turbo seals or something else?? Thanks guys, Dan
