Came across this whilst looking on ebay, as i'm after some 330mm discs to go with a set of R33 Brembo's, looks like a good upgrade with the std calipers.... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/330mm-Big-Brake-Kit-for-the-Nissan-200sx-200-sx-S13-S14_W0QQitemZ190169356289QQihZ009QQcategoryZ23013QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

came across them today and not seen before.

thought he would be back by now.been over 3 weeks and he was last on here on the 31st oct hope everythings ok :confused:

Your lights were turning amber (coming from Slough toward Windsor) as I was approaching from the M4 (westbound exit) - all I heard was noise and a 300ZX shot around the roundabout at Warp 9 ;) Looked and sounded very nice indeed.

I think I've got the time about right. Car looked pretty stock from what I could see. You made off through the traffic, I didn't flash because I wasn't in my zed :smw:

has anybody got any information about what power increases a Mines chip has on a manual UK spec TT? A graph showing torque and bhp increases over stock power would be fantastic... thanks guys

It's that time of the year and the Zed has to go in for it's annual checkup! This will be the first time I've had to take the Zed for an MOT and I'm a little aprehensive as even when I had my old Vectra I was slightly taken for a ride!! So...can anyone suggest/recommend a decent MOT test centre in the Reading/Berks area?? I've had a scour on here but there doesn't seem to be anyone closer than Bracknell... http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/travel/cheap-mot#minimise Fingers crossed....

does anyone know why my thread where all i was asking for advice on my advert for my zed has been deleted i wasnt askin anyone on here to buy it only if they thought the ad looked ok because i think selling one of these cars is hardly the same as selling a ford escort so whoever it was nice one :mad:

......and you hate to see it! Drove to tesco to see how the car felt on the new rims when the offside started to knock :confused: turned around straight away and got back to the house to find i hadn't actually done up the wheel nuts past finger tight! :headvswal :wack: :o

Dear All, I am struggling to get the wheels I like in the correct size without a large wait. Can anyone tell me where I can find a good selection, that will fit the z, with tyres off the shelf? Anywhere in the uk will do however I am in the North west near Manchester Airport. Thanks. ps looking for 19's.

HI PEOPLE I NEED TO GET MY SPEEDO SET UP CORRECTLY TO READ THE RIGHT SPEED. :confused: I AM I RIGHT IN SAYING YOU SIMPLY NEED TO CHANGE THE "RESISTOR" OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, ON THE REAR OF THE SPEEDO CLUSTER TO ACHIEVE THE CORRECT READING ON THE SPEEDO. :headvswal AGAIN, I THINK YOU CAN GET THESE "LITTLE CHAPPIES" FROM MAPLINS, OR A SIMILAR ELECTRICAL STORE. :D ANY HELP OR INFO IS VEY MUCH APPRECIATED. :bow: ALANZ

Think I found the leak LOL Right behind the passenger turbo :eek: Dunno why its so blurred but you can see the holes in the core plug at the top left corner and the rust running down below it... Cheers, Andy

Does the 300zx Club do anything at the NEC CLassic Show? Or has anyone here ever shown their car? I assume they rate as a classic?

My temp gauge has been a bit erratic since it's engine rebuild but has now stopped working completely, any suggestions chaps?

I'm looking to do a brake upgrade on my z32 . I currently have r33 Brembo front and rear but looking to get something a little more responsive. How difficult do you think it would be retro fit a set of Corvette Z06 Six Piston Calipers?? or a set of Porsche 928 Calipers

I think he mentioned the name "Mogs" and he lives in Hemel Hempstead, we had a little bit of fun in the tunnel... Does anyone know who this is?

Does anyone know if you can wire up the series 2 controls to a series 1 to allow manual selecton of screan, face, feet or any combination of as you can with the series 2

hi i have bought some down pipes and de cats off a friend for my twin turbo lwb and i have looked under the car and there are two silver wires and two littler pipes (like lamba sensers ) i think goin to the standard down pipes.. the decats dont have places for these to go to so what do i do with them? will i get any engine check lights on by removing the cats? cheers

would appreciate any advice you can help with, I get the dreaded vibration sometimes too, I have recently had my engine and box out to do my tubs, this only seems to have happened since i put it all back together, checked all the usual, exhaust rubbers etc. one thing occured to me tho, when i put back the bracket which holds the centre prop bearing back on the car, the bolt appeared to have a thick metal spacer between the bracket and the body at one side and not the other, I thought that does not look right so packed out the other side with washers untill they were level, could this be my problem? should it have a spacer (approx 1/4" thick) at one side and not the other?…

as above i just had my new auto box fitted it was fine before box went but now i have a really bad vibration coming from under the seat and glove box all through the bottom of the car can any one tell me what this could be and am i safe driving it while it is doing this cheers

Just got the zed taxed and tested today......woohoo... been off the road for 2 months now and its all good now that shes back up and running. A bit smoky for the first 15 or so miles but ok now. turned the boost down a bit as it was rippin the rears to bits. Gonna have the chip and apexi induction i promised myself from andy. i think it was a JWT or SE not sure but i,ll have to send him an email to find out. :hyper: ....happy days

lady driver on of the guys in work knows my car and saw yous going slow through speed camera then........... ????????
