hi all. I recently bought a greddy front bumper, a fiberglass one. I want to get it fitted up to the zed but as its away getting done i can't. My questions are, if i was to fit it up to someone elses car would that be a good idea or not? Next question is how do i do it? Is it easy? Is there a guide or anything?

It won't go away! I'm not doing anything mega to the Z either as I've done pretty much everything 'big' that I want to for the time being, just odds and sods here and there. I thought I could give it a break but I can't. Replaced all the tyres today not just because they needed to, but because I wanted to go a little wider and Jesus H Christ, it made a difference. Stance is near as how I want it as possible. But wait; I want to buy a boost controller in a few weeks time, I'm picking up some new O2 sensors from Mario tomorrow, then there's a new 4 channel amp I want to get, new chip from either JD or AP, the car's going to the bodyshop before the end of the year …

Just driven past you parked up in Roundstone Drive, East Preston, waited for a while, even revved up, but no sign. Very local to me.

I was up coed cae lane at gt superbikes earlier today and as i was comming out there was a red Z in the car park. Anyone on here?

Hello folks. 300zx twin turbo, what a car ae:D. Trying to find out the colour code for my car as everything is in japenese.lol. It seems like a kind of midnight blue colour but i am not sure on what colours nissan made these in as i am new to the 300zx scene. What are good engine monitioring tips to have apart from the ovious checking of oil levels etc? Anyone now where i would be able to get a new rubber for my passenger side as on the cars first wash it leaked slightly, after investigating the rubber seemed to have some wear and tear and i reckon this is the problem? How do use all load you picture of your cars onto the forum?

Evening all, iam trying to get classic car insurance for my zed, can anyone point me in the right direction. Iam 28 the zed is 16 years old but its an import. Ive tried adrian flux they want £1000, my normal insurance is only £500. Has anyone on here got classic insurance maybe suggest someone i can try.

this isn't a problem with my car but with a previous members car (John Garett who was killed in an accident earlier this year). His Z hasn't been driven for months and the battery is completely discharged so the central locking isn't working. I haven't seen the car myself but I am told the keys just swivel around in the locks to both doors and the boot without doing anything... Can anyone think of a way in short of smashing a window...

Why have My rides pictures all of a sudden been deleted? Has anyone else had the same problem? Cheers Dan

Anyone live near Z tech? Can someone check on my car please? Silver with high level spoiler L***DKH Just want to put my mind at rest. Thanks

i've replaced the top rad pipe on my tt, now obviously i've lost at least a pipes worth of coolant. so i need to top it up. this is something i've not done for years and not ever on the zed, do i just poor some in the radiator cap(well the hole left after taking the cap off obviously)? how do i know when i've got enough? how do i turn the air in the new top pipe into water or will it do it itself? do i need to run the engine to move it round and then add more? do i need to unscrew the plug on the top of other end of the rad what happens if i overfill it? does itpiss on the floor, go into an overflow tank or blow up? damn i sound new or blonde…

To fetch the cbr fireblade that my brother just bought. We will be going over my favorite road - the cat and fiddle, also the most dangerous road in the uk according to Police, camera, action! Now what does that sat about me! lol It better stop raining tho as im not taking the Z up there in the wet, less chance of death jumping off a cliff!

I live in Brazil and have some difficulty to find parts for my 300ZX. I’m going to London next month and I would like to know if there is a place where I can find some parts (brake pads for Stillen AP brakes 4 piston and tuning parts). Thanks for the attention.

Now i hunted and hunted for won of these,and must say not alot of people new where i could get one,so i thought my only option was to go to nissan,:cry: and thay priced the cuplin at £180 so i thought id have to bite the bullet and pay :hurl:. but i thought id give it one more try to find 1 and would you beleave after a few more phone calls,i found a scrapy that had a 300zx import close to my year,when got there looked at the car and got it lifted up,and there it was a lovely looking in perfect order steering cuplin,after a wee haggle i …

I was looking at a car on Autotrader that potentially ticked all the boxes for what I'm wanting, and was just within what I can currently afford at £2750. So I rang the chap up very expectantly, only to be told that it had already sold, which is a shame, but OK, I'm sure more will come along. However I've just been looking on Autotrader again and found the same car being sold again (I can just make out the number plate enough to know it's the same), but this time by a trader (previously it was on as private) and for £500 more, which just puts it over what I can possibly spend! How annoying is that!:rant: http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/www/cars/NISSAN+300+ZX/Ne-2…

where can i get a set of spitfire coil packs guys

i first noticed these in halfrauds and snorted as i walked past them thinking how rediculous and boy-racery they were. then i turned around and looked at them for a while. now in my search for a new set of alloys they have cropped up again. and i keep looking at them, and trying to picture them fitted to a blue Z with smoked side repeaters. do i need a :slap: and a pair of glasses?

The first goodie for my car has to be a decent boost controller to replace the bag 'o' shite thing thats already on it. I dont have millions of pounds to spend so whats the thoughts on here regards a good un to go for? M

Since i got my UK TT Manual, i always thought it was quick, having got used to it, i couldnt understand why it would only boost to 7psi. However today this has all changed. It started when i was reading a thread about a det bypass, having checked the resistor it was dead as a dodo. So i got hold of 5 x 1Mohm ones. (as spares) I disconnected the battery to reset the ecu, and did the bypass and an oil change and filter, After connecting it all back up, i noticed on the boost pipes, some jubilee clips, so i investigated to find that i have boost jets too. :hyper: One of which was blocked, after cleaning and checking it all. Started the engine to check the oil, and…

my passenger wheel is moving to the back of the arch whilst breaking and going over speed bumps, im assuming it could be some bush or bottom arm of some sort, would anuyone like to elaborate please

Some thieving shit has stolen my petrol cap. I don't want to drive the car so I'm slightly buggered. Does anyone have one and how much do you want for it.

Hi - I need somewhere where I can get used to the Z! I have only had it a couple of months and have not really driven it much. I put my foot down yesterday and the rear lit up going down a straight road!! Its scary and I want to know the cars limits before I give it too much! Does anyone know of anywhere that I can go to test it out? I live in Kent.

My rev counter needle sticks quite regularly. How do I sort this out? They have had the LED's fitted and have been converted to MPH if this makes a difference?
