I'm going to get my cracked windscreen looked at. Looks like my insurance will pay for a repair or replacement (less £60 excess if it needs replacing). I remember reading the glass is a different colour on imports and UK cars. Mine's an import - any idea how the glass differs so I can make sure they fit the right sort if needed. Cheers!

I know the entire TT exhaust system is incompatible with the SWB cuz the car is longer! But, can i use a nearside TT backbox and the 2 ft pipe that comes out of it to the down pipes in a SWB? Money is to tight to go for my dream blueflame exhaust at the moment and i have to replace a backbox as a pipe going into it has a big dent which failed the MOT

Hello im still on the hunt for the 300zx that is going to blow away my mind and i have had a look at 2 now and i know the kind of standered questions to ask that i would ask when buying any car but is there some Specific questions (Mechanical and Non) that people would recommend asking so that i dont get caught out by a dodgy person As i have seen in posts key ones to ask are Heater Matrix, New Clutch (Manuals) and New turbo's is there anything else that people would recommend i watch out for Thanks Munny

I'm insuring it today and picking it up from my dads in sussex tomorrow morning followed by about 1000 miles of fun!!!!!!! Shame about the weather turning but who cares!!!!!!!!!!!! whoohoo Gonna be thrashing from billingshurst to pagham tomorrow and then around the coast areas over the weekend if anyone wants to join me!!
