Just spotted this on eBay... shame it's an NA Auto, though...

Gumtree link I don't remember Spin Doctor stuffing a V8 into this thing..... :stupid:

Hi , need the above , can anybody sell me one ? thanks

Just a quick one, do we have a list of suppliers anywhere? I am going to be looking at obtaining a rear diffuser, spoiler, roof spoiler, 99 Spec lights, Brakes, etc.... I know about ZCentre just wondering if there is anywhere else?

Anyone know of a detailed guide on how to convert from Auto to Manual Gearbox ?? Cheers

As it's going to be a sunny dry day! The Z is going to be washed & waxed! Followed by an oil change! New oem filter with washer. Oil is Valvoline 10/40 syn! Happy days:)

Hi I'm at my sisters for a bit have the 300zx with me so poor things out in the rain and cold. Just heard a car horn go off constantly, went to door and it was my car:whistling:, so I disconnected the battery. It has been raining so much, water must have gotten into the horn wire some how.

Hi, can someone tell me what the original offset is front and rear on a European 2+2 model?

Any of the guys across the sea know or recognise this Zed? https://www.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sale/custom-300zx-tt/11385044

Just like to say thank you too Richie k for the seat cover well pleased thank you also the new timing cover

... which is better? Hi all, just wondered if anyone has experience with BOTH BC Racing coilovers and Meister R coilovers and what you prefer out of the 2? They're similarly priced and both look like a quality item, just wondered how the 2 compared. Thanks :) Brett

Well it's been a while coming but finally got my new bumper fitted. Wanted a change from the scarab for a while to freshen up the car a bit. Lost some enthuZiasm with it recently but love it again now so gonna put more effort in on the jobs that need doing! :lol: So now have a genuine 99-spec bumper with Proudear splitter blended in - used to be on Ash's green Z. Still not crazy on how far the splitter sticks out but it's certainly growing on me and makes it unique. And yesterday I managed to get pics of both my cars together - waited a long time to do it and it was a combination of me not being at work, the neighbours out so I could nick their drive lol, no mot…

Rightly or wrongly I bought a set of alloys and tyres from Ebay for the Z. They were described as, four genuine Nissan alloys in great condition and four tyres are road worthy. I should have returned the wheels i guess when i saw that the tyres were shot...but as i picked them up cheap and the wheels weren't terrible. I kept them and opened up a case on Ebay about the tyres. I bought them because the split rims on mine are beyond the joke now and one tyre actually came off the rim! The new rubber are one the rims now, old tyres disposed of. When i went to pick them up, they pointed out to me that i appears to have two rims that match for the rear but the two f…

hi does any one now if zed world chip can be read and if so how had my can dyno run today it did do well the tunner said the chip all over the place needs a new remap

On my (rather wet) drive to work this morning, idle was very rough and the engine cut out a few times in traffic. My first concern is the MAF... Since fitting a pair of K&N panel filters (together with exhaust, but I doubt it's that), the idle speed has been less stable - but not this severe up to now. Could they be letting water or oil into the MAF? I also noticed at the time that there's a pencil-sized hole through the mesh on the MAF :huh: I have driven in wetter weather up to now and hadn't noticed idle being any more erratic in the wet.

My old zed has UK front glass which is 6 months old prior to the accident. I have an estimate of £60 to remove it carefully but wondering if its worth it ?

Well this is the Zed I have decided to purchase, N/A Auto but im not bothered as this could be changed over time, really just wanted another Zed. As some of you are aware of my other ZX which sadly I had to sell due to the purchase of a new home, lets just say i wont be going down that route this time. My ideas for this ZX are to look for a spoiler which will go over the rear strip which does not effect it, possibly a roof spoiler, 99 Spec lights and front bumper, smooth out the lines from the side doors and rear bumper and respray black. Let me know your thoughts especially on the spoiler. I collect this next week and look forward to driving a Zed again. Just n…

Just been into Halfords or Halfrauds as I have learned to called it on this forum and they have some 5w-40 fully synthetic and 10w-40 semi for £12 for 4litres. Might be handy for anyone looking to do a couple of oil changes to clean up their engine. I'm hoping it's suitable, it says oil industry standards Area A3/B4 and API SM CF. Then it says recommended for applications requiring Mercedes MB 229.3, VW 502.00/505.00 and Renault RN0700/710 It's not with the other oils it'll probably be on a stand near the entrance..

I need to sort the brakes on the new zed so I need to but some fluid. I know the recommended fluid is DOT3 but can I use the higher grades, such as DOT4, 5.1 etc.

Guess it was never meant to be :( Only a few things left to strip out of the old zed before she goes to the carpark in the sky.
