I took advantage of the z1 Black Friday sale and treated the 300 to an early xmas present. Some new jdm fog lights- unfortunately one of the end caps came broken, hoping z1 will sort this swiftly New scuttle set as my old one although in good condition is not perfect. Also got some new door seals as the ends on mine were damaged and I wanted to get some fresh ones while they are still available. Also picked up a few bits and bobs including some new targa bolts, some door latch covers, set of gauge rings and a radiator hose kit.

I was wondering my Z comes with those grey stickers in the engine it´s all in jap words, anyone knows where to get these? probably they come from stock, but it´s tearing off.

Have any of you guys owned a TT then moved on to an NA? If so how do you find the difference in performance, drive etc. I'm still looking to get back into a Zed and might be going down the auto NA route. Although as some of you may know, my ultimate preference is a SWB TT. Should I do it? Reality is that I won't be in a position to afford my preffered Zed. All thoughts and opinions welcome. Daffy.

Here's my wheels! And my friend said I should do this!

I see that fantastic convertible of Gazwoz's sold, was it anyone on here??

If anyone has an email address or phone number for Taff, could they please drop him a line and ask him to email me at simonlee@uk2.net? Cheers :thumbup1:

Can anybody help?? . I have a emanage blue in my zed which I want to set up. Does any body have any advice or a software cd???

Hi guys, are power steering pumps for a TT & a N/A the same are they interchangeable?? And does the j reg targa glass, think it's series 1 will it have any issues of fitting a series2 K reg both are LWB. Thanks in advance

Hi guys - my car is across the local garage, Istarted it up and could immediately smell petrol very strongly They had a look at it and I have a bad fuel leak, it's spraying out from the high pressure fuel rail What they wanted to know (and I don't know the answer) is should there be this little rubber pipe clamped on with jubilee clips (see pics) or is the fuel rail supposed to be all metal piping. The petrol is spraying out from where the arrow is pointing. They say they could just tighten up the jubilee clip but are a bit loath to undertake the job if this rubber pipe is a modification/prvious repair as they say they would be responsible if the leak ret…

I am looking at EBC and Mintex products. Can anyone offer any personal experiences with either? Also, struggling to work out whether green or red pads would be better for my car, the car never goes on track and rarely gets driven hard. The existing brembo pads that are on it now do seem to run out of puff though on the odd occasion I have braked heavy from speed. Thanks

I am getting a steering wheel shimmy when braking and suspect the torsion arm bushes. I have seen that you can buy replacement arms for less than £100, does anyone have these? Or can offer advice on where to buy? Or, are the bushes still available to press into the existing arms? Thanks

Does anyone know the size of the speedo and tacho in mm as looking at changeing them

Came across this blog today which belongs to an American member here. It's probably the best Z32 blog I've seen yet. Particularly the model differences and evolution details, which are far more comprehensive than other sources I've seen. The scale of the interesting and useless facts he has is crazy! Particularly on Jap zeds - I learned quite a bit from it about my own car, such as that the "UV Cut" decal on my DS quarter window isn't aftermarket. Just as well I didn't remove it after all. :whistling: Iangreenfield, some bits may also appeal to you as I hadn't known some of the details about the version R.

Near B&Q, I was in a silver 3 series and flashed you to a confused look lol

I've always secretly quite pleased that my little Shortie is unique around where I live :) So you can imagine my surprise when I came across another SWB T-top TT this afternoon! :ohmy: So much surprise, in fact, that I had to go back and get a couple of snaps of the two of them together: No owner popped out to see what I was up to and I didn't want to start knocking on doors (like a crazy person!), but wow! Not as unique as I first thought in these parts...

Hi all, It was only during my first engine pull last weekend that I noticed the routing of the power steering hoses. They route forward from the power steering pump, across in front of the radiator, back along through the engine bay, just to get to the left side of the steering rack. I can only assume this is for an optional PS fluid cooler, or is it for fluid quantity purposes? Can it be rerouted a more direct route to the rack? While the engine Is out Im trying to find an NA PS pump to get rid of all remainder of the hicas pipes which are currently just looped.

Anyone else done one of these? Not had a model kit for years, going to get a 350z model too so I can match my wheels and make it look as much like mine as possible.

Just seen this on fb, have to say the 300 looks class here and clean . But i like the nsx the best how about you. - - - Updated - - - THE 3000GT LOOKS TO FUSSY

My mate built this replica Diablo. It has lights of course from the 300zx but more interesting (and relevant) is the BMW V12 he fitted that has been given the addition of FOUR turbos also taken from 300zx's. Not sure on exact power but it's no slouch!

Does anyone know whose this 300zx belongs to at the Paul Walker tribute thing the other day?:

So, I couldn't wait till next week, I've brought my Brembo's into work and have one of the lads helping me. :innocent: Having looked at the calipers, I want to know which way I should have them ie. Bleed nipples to the top or bottom of the caliper, Larger piston to the top or bottom or does it matter which way round the pistons are ?? I can't take any pics till I get home from work, so I hope you understand what I'm trying to get at:thumbup1: Funkysi, you around??:whistling:

Hi guys, had a quick search on here and didn't get a definitive answer.. So, the series 4 plenum does fit on a '93 TT engine but what modifications do I need to do (if any)?? Thanks.. Richie
