can they be powder coated, or would it get too hot for it i have a mate who works for a powder coating company and could do it for me

I've just joined after having some serious cosmetic work done on my Zena (a re-spray!)...Oh, I expect it's a bit naff to give your car a name but I've had my zx so many years that I can't help it! She is white, 1986 registered and I have another exactly the same which has been sitting in my garage for 4yrs.......through no fault of the car! I put it away in perfect running order but it's a long story! Zena has, however, been used regularly and has never let me down. I would like to go to some club meets etc. but as I'm a bit new to this club thing I don't want to just turn up and not know anyone. Are you a friendly bunch or am I too unknowledgeable for you…

does anyone know the make of these alloys, ive just bought them for the zed, i liked them too much to resist :D . 9.5j front . 10.5j rear.

Was giving my lady friend a lift back home last night and she wasn't impressed to find that she had water all over her shoes. On the passenger side of the Z, there seems to be a pipe going to no where! Leaks water strait onto the carpet! Not in drops, but quite a bit of water. The origional Z carpet is soaked. Seems like the pipe is very close to where the ecu is kept but It's just above (not good I think). Anyone know why there's water leaking into the interior or what for??? :headvswal Blocked the pipe for now, but can't see where it goes or what it's for.

I've seen a couple of questions here about the Nissan OEM remote locking as fitted to the Series 3 and later (Sept 93 onward as you can see here http://www.300zx.org.uk/model_variations.htm ). 1) Is there an alarm as well as central locking? 2) Does this OEM locking count as Cat 1 or 2 or anything Thatcham? I've used the searchy thing but have only come up with a couple of guys asking the same type of questions! http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=76673&highlight=remote+locking http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=49370&highlight=remote+locking TIA - Gio

Not yet got round to changing the oil on my zed yet and it has been stood for god knows how long the engine is a little noisy, once the oil is changed do you reckon it will sought out the tapping noise. Im also going for a de-cat do you reckon this could put more pressure on the turbo's.

I put a thread on here yesterday to give you all a chance of cutting your insurance. As i said yesterday I got a quote for fully comp, legal fee's and breakdown cover for just 180.86. (your zed has to be 1991 or b4 and you need to be over 21 with a clean licience) I was wondering how you got on with your quotes?? I know a few of you were intrested.

First one was a g plate silver j spec heading east on the m27 going past hayling island at about 09:10 this morning. and then a red one 10 mins later heading east on the m27 i think the reg started A19... anyone on here? :bow: :dance:
