I need to upgrade the bushes on the zed, polybush and powerflex don't list kits so has anyone got any recommendations?

Anyone seen this? http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=135662 Check out the video of the loverly german gal having her porsche covered in olive drab here Looks pretty crazy. What I'm thinking though is if we can find a source for the 3M vinyl that's used here in blighty then use it to cover the roof bars in gloss black? Sure a few people on here might be interested. This stuff lasts for about 4 years or so and does not damage the paint!

I have found most garages do not like working on 300ZX Turbo cars and charge exorbitant amounts. Can anybody inform whether they know of reasonably priced mechanics in Surrey (especially ones that like working on these brilliant beasts)?:headvswal

how much are uk wheels worth in excellent condition with good tyres on? pm if you want

Hi does anyone know how I can make the 300XZ light up on the pannel between my rear lights. I have seen it done once and it looks very good. Also I would like to do something similar in the blank area under my sterio system. Is there kits available? Thanks again.

hi. my car just failed it's MOT on both steering gaitors being split....pretty good as that was it's only fault:tongue: anyway, my problem is getting the new gaitors. i thought some universal ones would do the job but after talking to the local motorfactors, they said there was a bit on the giators for some other fitting, that unless i had, would allow the oil to escape. ok i'm pretty confused. so can anyone help?

Hi All, I had the rear bumper and spoiler sprayed on my Z and now they show the rest of the car up. Anyone know any good stuff to restore the paint??.

Core Size: 280mm x 200mm x 90mm thick with 2" in/outlet Flow Results: Each Size = 268CFM @ 21" with 1.2PSI Pressure Drop Well they arrived, these however are not the godspeed coolers, i was informed that the godspeeds are a chinese copy, these ones i bought are more expensive but made by the original aussy designer, who knows if there is a difference!!! they look massive and well built anyhow, apart from the inside end tank which is actually quite big just seems small and out of proportion to the size of the thing. The godspeed coolers seem as though they have been discontinued for whatever reason!!! Here are some pics to show off …

Yesterday @ about 16:00 parked up on a car park off caroline street in wigan, only saw it from a distance and didn't have time to nip over.

Today at about 16:50 heading down the dual carriage way towards the saddle junction, Looked like a nice clean motor :cool:

Could someone please tell me what front bumper or lip has been added to this and DON'T say a standard tt bumper as its not, very close but not, and where i might happen upon one. Many thanks, J.

Hi All, Has anyone suffered this phenomenem. Over rough road only the rear left swings about. Sometimes if turning left hard on the power (therefore less weight on rear left) I get a hammering /juddering. It has begun post MOT and bodywork. An ex Z owner has suggested dirt on HICAS sensors, do such sensors exist? Maybe they have been oversprayed? I need to jack the corner to check for loose fittings but all seems good with weight on wheels. Can anyone give me pointers for things to look for please. Cheers Rob

as my plans near completion (bwuhahahaha!!!) im looking for a specific style of alloys - 18". ive seen them once and fell in love with them, and never seen them since. theyre very very similar to stock 350z - 6 or 7 spoke, nice and simple, flat, no shaping, slightly convex, no studs all around the rim that need washing with cheese wire, and preferably in gunmetal or anthracite. has anyone come across my dream wheels?! :cry:

Does anyone know if the conzult software will give auto gear box faults, and yes ive tried the diagnostic test a million times but can get it to work. Ive spent the last 2 weeks checking all the connectors, fuses, relays, you name it ive checked it, dont know what else to check i give up.

Black Zed parked up facing towards Bradford around 10.30 this morning.

Just saw this ad on setanta so thought would put details in and see the valuation 93 NA manual 90K - only work needed is respray of spoiler - no history Valuation - £560 :shock:

White Z on the A2 London bound near Blue Water, today 11 o'clockish. Paul

Hi guys, My birthday was coming up so I decided I was going to get a n/a zx, as I owned one a few years back and always regretted selling it. Two weeks ago today I bought a white n/a 300zx from Paul at SWZ (this forums registered trader) after seeing the car on ebay. The car was described as 'A nice drive, mechanically sound with a tidy interior', when i picked up the car the exhausts were blowing very loudly even though it had just passed an MOT that day. I paid for the car and didn't haggle on the price as I believed I was getting a good car. The car didn't even make it home, after 140 miles the car started to misfire and splutter. We pulled into the services a…

Removed stock rear spoiler and now have 6 holes where the spoiler used to be bolted on. Does anyone have (or know where I can get) any “plugs” either rubber or plastic I can put into the holes until I decide what to do? I just want it to look neat and tidy while I am driving it, and also don’t want the dreaded “urine of the God’s” seeping into the boot?

How do you adjust the bonnet alignment, mine sits a couple of mm higher than the wing on the passanger side, its something that has bugged me for a while just not got round to sorting it out, its raining at the moment so can't go and have a look.

Come on - who are ya? Long hair, half way up the bank having a wee! Nice Zed though :)

Well i can't get insured on the 300 :cry: just got my lic back after a lengthy ban for speeding etc (might have been an idea to try insurance first :slap:) so sadly it looks like i'm breaking the 300 now, but i will have another prob next year once an insurance company will touch me. gutted as i've always wanted a 300 and this is manual tt with nice rims, mynes ecu, twin stainless mongoose exhaust etc :cry: i'll get subscribed today and get a thread started in the for sale section in a few days.
