Black Strosek Wide Arch UK TT spotted at Blackmoor service station. Lovely looking car, or will be when it's in one piece LOL. Bad news is, your front brakes are too big for the very nice wheels mate.:eek:

Clutch Pedal getting increasingly more difficult to press in. Getting hissing noise from under the dash. Any ideas?

Can anyone recommend a good cover for the Z, REALLY bored of washing it every 4 days due to tree sap. Cheers

Hey guys, my cig lighter is not attached at all, it was all taped up, Ive taken the centre console bit off where the gear nob is but their is no plug their to plug onto it, it looks as though the wiring has been used for something else. Also their is a 4 pin plug left hand side towards the back of where the centre console is, what is this for, i have put the plug back in but nothing seems to have changed, im not sure if it used to be an auto, could this have anything to do with it? Any ideas why my arial isn't working? Thanks

Hi all i am planning on buying a 2nd hand turbo, is there any other cars i could pull the t25 off, or are they all different, also where is the 2nd intercooler, i can only see one & thats in front of the rad. thanks

Well i'am sorry to say it but the old zed is on ebay. I am back to sea in a couple of weeks and i just dont have the storage space anymore, its a shame, but thats the way it has to be. never mind maybe i'll get another one a good few months down the line, i'll miss the old girl, thats if she sells ofcourse.

Spotted a silver one broken down on the A46 Tuesday night 1 at The Garage Door Company at about 10am this morning. Black with big exhausts. And last but not least a pearl white one on the A47 near Leicester Forest East. Best day spotting I've had for ages!!!! Ivan

Saw it traveling towards Cardiff on the A470 at about 9:15 Very nice car with no spoiler

*****x. Only had them on a couple of weeks. Pulled out of a juntion too fast in the wet, back end spun around and slammed me sideways into the curb on the opposite side of the road. Other than the scuffed alloys is there anything else i should check after such a collision? Car seems to drive fine and in a straight line but ya can never be sure with these things. Hit the curb pretty hard sideways.

Hi Guys, just wondering if any of you have had dealings with Z-Autos. I am looking for someone to do my Manual conversion and Nottingham isn't far from me. Are they well experienced with the 300zx? And have you had good dealings with them? Cheers in advance!:duffer:

Anyone had this before? The explanation mark in a circle light is on when handbrake is applied, but doesnt go out when handbrake is off, the light only goes dim. It did this this morning and I stopped car and restarted and all went ok, but every other time today it has just gone dim. Fluids are fine? Any ideas? cheers :)

put a japspeed cat back system on my car a while ago (sounds alot better now, ordering the decat pipe tonight cant wait! ) but when removing the old exhaust the exhaust brackets that supports the exhaust broke off just wandering where to get new ones. i looked on a few sites z centre and Z1 but no luck does anyone know were i can get these cos the exhausts making an annoying squeeking noise ever since. doing my head in! squeek squeek

Hi. Was just wondering what possible causes there could be for the hicas light coming on in the zed? Found a set im ratehr intrested in but have been informed the hicas light is on. The valuation of the zed is quite highish imo so i dont want to be touching it if the hicas light = big spending straight away. I understad it can mean something is worn etc. Any you guys had this problem or that can help?

just removed front number plate and this was underneath. not seen this one before
