Spurred on by another thread, I was wondering, from today's owner base, how long they've owned their CURRENT Z for? I am pretty sure AndrewG holds that record at 16/17 years. I'm now into my 11th year of ownership and continue to become more and more attached to it. So, how long have you owned your current Z? Votes are public - so everyone can see how long people have owned theirs. Whilst I got mine in 2005 (1 complete decade), I am now into my 11th year - so I have selected 11 for example

Hey everyone, does anyone know where to find a piping kit for a front mount intercooler? Thankyou

The car is off the road for winter, so I'm doing some stuff I've always ment to do, but never found the time. Well time and no were to work, but after building a nice garage this year I now have room to work and play in the dry. I had the battery out to get room to work on something else, but whilst there I noticed the passenger side turbo hose top clip was very loose, took 10 turns to tighten! The car has always boosted and seemed ok, hence why I've never bothered to check for leaks, but now is the time after seeing this. I have a boost leak tester, removed the MAF, installed tester, attached a small compressor I have, after a few minutes still 0 pres…

Anyone on here know who has my first 300 ,was on ebay sometime ago as a project as it had been left in a lock up and looking a little sorry for itself

Anybody no of a simple way to bleed rear wheel steer rack??? Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk

I'd like to say a huuuuuge "Thank you!" to Rata2ie (Mark) for being a very patient man! I collected a spare steering wheel from him at JAE and he'd already paid me to have this retrimmed. Roughly 3 months later, it's finally finished and ready to send back to him!! I've managed to fall behind on a lot of the "smaller" jobs in recent times - his being one of them - so apologies for the rather sizeable delay and thanks yet again for being so patient, Mark! :thumbup:

I need to bleed my hicas. I have read a thread about getting under the car on stands and getting somebody in the car to turn the wheel from left to right with it in gear at 2000rpm plus. I would prefer to use conzult. Could anyone please tell me what one I need to buy. I see several on ebay but not sure if the cd is just the driver and not actually the conzult software????

Hello by the way! Spotted this Zed parked up in Stainton whilst I was out walking this week, it has a club sticker in the window

Having no where to store a zed in winter is crap, we all know that. The last two winters mines gone into hibernation. I think I can honestly say it's received more weather related damage than being used. So in honour of the new tax law, allowing the payment to be monthly, making life easier and the extensive anti rust program I went through last winter, I've decided to just keep driving it, unless it's salty/raining. So I thought I'd start a new thread on the back of the colour threads. It's for the winter warriors, we see the garage queens posted up now I want to see the daily driven zeds, the dirty, used ones. So although mine isn't the aim of thread, you can't start wi…

can anyone recommend a good place for chrome plating. the 3 layer kind I think it is. had a look online there are loads but anyone recommend one ?

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
