Has anyone tried the 320mm discs from an EVO6 on a Z? I believe someone on here has adapted the calipers

I'm going to try sort out Mrcus's auto box out tomorrow, just would like a few questions clarifiying first if poss. I've looked at the online manual on doing this but when you drain the oil does this empty the torque convertor as well, also is it possible to drain all the lines as he has an aftermarket oil cooler on. What is the best thing to clean the box filter with, says Mineral turps???? whats this, as i dont want to use the wrong stuff. We have a new filter and good oil,but think it would be best to flush the system with ordinary box oil before putting in the good stuff as the old oil smells burnt. just hope that theres not loads of bits in the fluid or metal o…

One Grey Zed on the A30 Camberley I beep you and waved from my grey Zed at the lights. :)

Parked in Yateley near the motor spare's shop. Yesterday afternoon. I wasn't in my Zed just picking up jubilee clips for it. I was the red headed woman in the :) Black convertable RX7.

How can we justify spending fortunes on our cars when there worth so little ? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1990-Nissan-300ZX-Twin-Turbo-Auto-Excellent-condition_W0QQitemZ280099470028QQcategoryZ18238QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem All day long you will find our cars on bloody ebay going for ****ing peanuts so how are we ever gonna get over it ! can anyone send a virus to the ebay server ? that would sort it wouldnt it and then we all put at least a £1000 on our cars whenever we sell them and never let a zed go for less than £3000. :smash:

is it possible to use red hammerite on the throttle cover cos i'm bored of lookin at the gold one, its just for a bit of a change really but i dont wanna spend a fortune on a chrome one :)

Seen it a few times. parked in romney avenue. Red j spec manual :)

Saw these at the donny tuning and styling show, one on show, one in the carpark, its very rare to see a 300 on the road and then one parks next to you,

seen a pearl on with quad rear lights parked in whitchurch this morning

I have got to admit I baulk at paying defi prices although I love their gauges, cos I am a tight git :D But have seen some of autogauge style gauges that are really nice, has anyone tested how accurate they are?

just been told by a ninga 6r owner, that theres a 750bhp silver z that almost smoked him......until he stopped to ask what the feck is under the hood!! he said cwmbran but i dont think so!! theres only 2 down here mine and a silver g reg uk z :bow: anyone???

wasnt sure about the smooth soft look. Chris parked his zed up next too mine and mine looked far too soft. refitted vented nose panel now. I think its the 99 spec bumper im not so keen on - may want to get rid/swap for something a little more aggressive like the scarab.

saw a grey z (smooth tailgate) going along southend sea front

Welcome back fella, hope you've had a good old holiday :D

could anyone tell me how to upload photos and info on rides or vbgarage etc.... I must be having a blonde day and not getting it!! any help will do? :headvswal

Happy Birthday mate, I hope your on the mend. :duffer: Kim

Spotted and waved Black z Tinted, red rim part of wheel in the esso garage at newton abbot about 4pm 07/04/2007 I was in the grey one

and its final. Its been a hard decision and I've been selling/keeping for a while. But I've made my mind up now and im calling it quits. I've put a sale thread incase anyone wants the car as is, if the price is right, or im going to break it. Shame to do so, but money is money. Its been a tedious year of Z'ing and never really had a good week of it, even with a cheap Z and an expensive Z!!! I coulda had a real nice car with all the money I've thrown at these, lol, but it has been good!!! :dance:

Very tidy 2+2 in the car park saturday around 12pm ? ? ? ? ?

one was funky si an the other was the same colour but had standard wheels both seen in the after noon

Thought i would try the new kit onto see how it fits, not bad needs a bit of work, still waiting for the 99 spoiler and wings west skirts. then all the prep work and new colour

Found this and thought THAT LOOKS LIKE A GOOD WEEK AWAY. Any one else? Chri http://www.sfzcc.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3982 and this one http://www.flza.com/convention_info.htm

im not very mechanical so i was wondering how much a plenum bypass would cost me and where can i get it done (im in glasgow) ive recently had all major pipes replaced so im hoping it will last a good while but a bypass would cure any future probs

can any one point me to the direction of where all the pvc hoses are and where the valves are as my z is smoking (white smoke) smells of oil but could be petty smell as engine been flooded after weeks of cranking and car not starting but finaly sorted starting prob out and cars smoking first it was from the passenger side exhust thats cleared and now its from the driver side exhust smokes a bit more when uv reved it and once its ticking over after reving it after a while the smoke calms down a bit but soon as you rev again it dooes the same, water levels fine also the oil level is fine. what can it be??
