Hi, There's a white 300ZX NA for sale in a garage near Hook, Hampshire...I was wondering if anyone lives near there and if they might have seen what condition it's in? It's a white M reg 2+2 NA....The garage is called Clarksons. Cheerz, Jez

Last week I contacted a company called JPS pff ebay as they had some Skyline coilpacks for sale, anyway I managed to order a Bride seat rail for another car and a set of splitfire coilpacks for the ZX.. (saved on shipping this way)... anyhow they worked out at only £220 delivered. I'm not sure if I will get stung by customs but the price seems very very good!! Delivery time is only 5 days so I should have them anyday now... After fitting some Splitfire's to a Skyline I was so surprised at the difference which is why I want a set for my blue ZX... will report back on how good they are soon ;)

i saw a nice z today not so far from brum land. was it u ?

I purchased a car cover last year to keep the zed warmer in the winter months. as i didnt have the zed throughout the winter i hadnt really had the chance to try it on... today, after washing and polishing the z, i decided to try it on for size... i must say im impressed, the fit is perfect and the quality is cracking for the price. beautiful soft seamless lining in a nice thick heavy material... i know its getting towards the wrong time of the year to need one of these but nevertheless id recommend one. here is a link but make sure it is the right size for your car.. ie LWB or SWB.

...of the tailgate. So i removed the spoiler wiper arm/motor and the counter weight. How much does the spoiler weigh?!?!? I ripped it off and the taigate popped up and smacked me in the face! :mac1: Anyway i'm now trying to get all the sticky stuff off, the foam like stuff isnt a problem but the thick black rubber like adhiesive(sp) is proving to be really stubborn. any suggestions?

Went down Hall Lane in Longton (nr Preston) today and saw a zed on a driveway that i have never seen before even though i go down there quite alot. It is a Cream coloured LWB with a big wing spoiler on the back, vented bonnet, front mount intercooler, ducts where the fogs where, aftermarket front bumper and a wider rear than usual, oh and big blingy alloys :) Was/Is it you??? Lovely looking motor BTW. :)

Can Some one help as my brian is playing trick on me again and I can't remember tyr sizes. Blue car is in storage and my othe 18's are in for refurb. Are these profiles correct? So i can order some new tyre to go to Mr refurber Is it 235/40/18 Fronts and 235/35/18 Rear Or is it 265/35/18 Fronts and 265/30/18 Rear Not Got car or info to hand :headvswal

Is Craig Davids '99 spec the newest Z we got on here? Who else has a really late Z?

Hello again, I would like to take away the grey "heatshield", that is mounted on the inside of the engine hood. - Just for better looks, - maybe do some mirror-foil there (if my english is understood :mac1: ) Does it give problems with the paint outside the hood? Does the hood get to hot? (Austria has a higher average-temp. than the UK) Thanks in advance, Patrick

Hi all. Recently,i had the cambelt changed on my '91 tt. Now its running like crap. To cut a long story short,i'v managed to narrow the problem down to a tooth out somewhere on the belt. Can anyone give me a rough idea on price to put this right,i'm guessing i shouldnt need many new parts(a couple of o' rings as the mighty 'duffman' :bow: mentioned in an earlier thread)so just need to know how much labour time i'l be screwed for? cheers guys.

does anyone no where i can get a m30z front bumper from ive already got one but i gave a rabbit a skin head , well to be be honest i think i really fooked it up so needless to sat it needs a little repair ,,,,in failing that anyone know of a good fiberglasser thanks

Hi Again, Taking my car to the Nurburgring soon and wanted to replace the brake pads on the car before i go, which pads take most wear on a trip like that (front or rear) or is it a 50/50 split as want to put the more expensive pad one the area that is going to do most work and cheaper ones on the other area. cheers ps- should i get some new disks too, planning to do 8-12 laps over 2 days and drive there and back.

Ok took the Z out for a lil cruise alot further than I did before when it decided to cough and splutter, but this time i had the heater on and I had no problems at all it went like a mofo and I never smiled so much before lol, but when heater is left off it splutters like made and starts clicking almost like tappet sounds. Has anyone had a similar problem to this? Sorry for similarity of previous post im testing things :hyper:

ok the previous owner seems to have taken the original caps of that connect to the bulbs and just bridged them prolly so he could use uk bulbs perhaps? my question is, can i get the jap coneectors to rewire back on so i can put in the jap bulbs i just bought lol :headvswal also would this be a local job or again mail order?

Hi, has anyone got a Thermostat they can sell me for my UK Manual Twin Turbo please?? It's turning out to be a mission to get one as my local motor factors reckon it's gonna be 3 months before they get one in as there is a shortage and Nissan we're just as bad! Thought something like that would be easy to get! Many thanks!

changed the shifter on a auto ,i'm tired of looking at that manky nissan job,i was wondering if its a doddle ,or an all day job? :confused:

Hey folks Just got some UK clocks but they wont work in my Jap car,the only thing that works is the rev counter,when i plug my orginal clocks back in everything back as it should be,any ideas? cheers Paul

I have to replace the rear tyres on the zed but at the same time the back rim is badly kerbed. I might as well get the whole set refurbed for £200 while the tyres are off BUT i was thinking of going gun metal grey, black, or a high shine silver what do you think? I'll sort out some photoshops later tonight

I have just ordered 4 turbo reapir kits from a company called Kansai Sport in the US they are for T25 tubs and they are an upgraded kit that includes the 360 degree thrust bearing and carbon seal. The same kit from Melett is £110 this guy is doing em for $65 plus delivery which is $35 if you order multiples its only 1 delivery charge. The only thing you would need to buy is the upgraded piston rings but Melett do them for £2.70 each. Pretty good cheap way to refurb your tubs and upgrade em without paying loads of money. I'm doing this myself so will keep you all posted on how it goes.
