Hope you had a great day and a great evening to come! Happy Birthday! :nana2:

Hi, everyone. Thought I'd just register to keep up to date with the Zs in the hope one day I'll own one again... I own a few cars at the mo so it is unrealistic to get anything else, plus I am off work at the mo. which doesn't help. 2 of the cars I own are 200sxs though lol. I used to own one up until 2003 but never got to run it properly as I was burnt badly :rant: when bought.......... before I knew what to look for in a car!!!! Any way it looked good in the drive......... Maybe some of you have come across it. G632 SRH.

Has anyone got one of these and do they know if they have the average airflow function for 2 signals like the original Apexi AFR?

Just thought I would stick up a couple of comparison pics of a T25 "hybrid" turbo and a Z1 GT675RS

hi guys and girls, hope all is well. ok, i am looking to buy a manual transmission convertible, i can stretch to 9k and i like the look of the 300zx. one of the reasons i likle the zx (apart from it looks great and goes like the proverbial off a shovel...)is the boot space - i want to use this car day to day, and i am a mobile PC engineer so i have a number of tools that i need to carry around, and need to transport 1 or 2 PC's every now and again. thus i need a bit of boot space. so a few questions... 1) i cant seem to find a manual (gearbox) convertible model - do they exist? 2) how practical is this car? 3) anybody got any idea of urban fuel use diff…

Just a bit of a rant and cry for help! I’m very stressed out at the minute with the crappy weather and the fact that my car always seems to be dirty at the moment!! Just wondered if anyone can advise on these points. 1. Rubber Mudflaps – Can I remove these and soak them in anything? 2. Wheels – Whats the best stuff to get stock alloys back to factory like condition? There is no scuffing on them but they are caked in brake fluid and the crap that comes off the road, jet washes just don’t remove it. 3. Stainless Exhaust - How can I get this shining again? Seriously debating on putting her into storage next year as I seem to be washing every couple of days…

Hi The 18 year old wires on the gearbox snapped when removing the gearbox.. Anyone know where I can get those wires that come out of the gearbox?

When all the interior comes out soon. Kinda thinking about putting in some interior courtesy door lights. IE, when you open the door, they come on with the interior light. Anyone done this? Gotta be quite an easy job? I have some from a Cavalier GSi (not the ones below) which look really nice. They also have a very fine rubber surround to the base of them too, so should look really neat and factory fit.

Very nice...

been trying to ring them and number not recognised !? :confused:

As mentioned a while back, my Zed is off the road due to a tapping noise under load. No other problems like overheating and the oil pressure was magnificent. On a cold start it went right round the clock and when hot was showing 45 lbs on tickover and approx 75-80 when running. I have been around cars all my life especially when involved in the Rally scene and sadly spent a lot of time underneath them at weekends, so I am used to engine noises and there cause. My son Jimmer sadly had to endure this when he was a boy when his hobby was really trains (model & real). Now I was convinced my tapping was due to some sort of ring failure and have been duly stripping the engi…

Hi Everybody, im new to this site and have just bought a 300zx 3 days ago. i took it for the MOT today and got failed on the rear fog because it was wired into what used to be the rear brake light in the spoiler! Is this legit as as far as i can work out this was done professionally and don't really want to change it if i can avoid it, and if anybody knows of any official documentation i can take down to the testing centre and slap it in the testers face let me know if anybody has any info thanks in advance Danny

HI Everyone Just out of intrest, who has fitted Lambo doors to their Zeds?? Do you think they look good or not? If you do have them what company would you recommend? And Bolt on or Weld on??? Looking forward to the replies. Chow 4 Now Nico

Hi All, Does anyone have or have any experience with this ECU. Ive read on here it is used alot in the states Is it easy to use and can any tuner be able to work with it? Cheers

Hello, i purchased some ingaglo dials, and unfortunately they are different. Turns out, my speedo (which is in KM/H and why am changing dials) is off. Is there a simple resistor change or something to adjust the speedo range? Mine is a 120MPH speedo, and the replacements are a 180MPH face. Many thanks, as I don't really want to purchase a new speedo cluster, or new indaglo dials. I know... should have checked first...

Bought HID kit- managed to change bulbs without taking skin off knuckles- BUT where to locate the Control Units/Ballast & are there any areas to avoid- eg close to Alarm control unit?- leads provided with HID kit are less than 20ins so limited as to where to locate the units- Any help most welcome guys!

Just got the new SFS boost hose kit to go with my coolant ones. Off to fit them very soon, will post some pics.
