Gumtree link This is the one that JaiKai went to look at for me last year in Troon - the price just keeps going up!!

I will be upping the power of my z soon, what is the best tyre (17") to achieve substantial grip. Thoughts

Does anyone know how SLICKTOP has his impul lenses tinted black like: I have access to a laser cutter so if i could buy tinted acrylic then i could cut that to shape, otherwise i thought about 5% window tints to cover it, or spray it with niteshades but i don't think it would look that good. Any ideas?

Just spotted this on ebay if anyones interested.... looks tidy:) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-300-Zx-Fairlady-Z-Twin-Turbo-2-2-Auto-Just-32-752-Miles-Imported-98-/131637408336?hash=item1ea6337250:g:0PMAAOSwhcJWLfa6#ht_10361wt_1141

Does anyone want to do my water bypass for me? Bit to much of a job for me to do Was thinking of getting the matrix hoses done at the same time.

A few of the connectors on my zed engine are needing replaced. Namely the air regulator and both the idle valve connectors. They are cheap in the US at around $6 but shipping is crazy expensive. Z Centre do them but but around £12 a connector which is insane. Are there any other Nissan cars that we can get these same/similar connectors for? I've managed to do this with other cars, but not sure which other Nissans may have what we need. Or can anyone suggest another seller of these? Thanks guys.

The lever will not effectively open the boot, when you pull the lever it just wont unlatch unless you have one person lifting the boost and the other pulling the boot. I guessed that the wire was just not taught enough to pull the latch open but i took apart the lach and but a bolt spacer on the wire so it would act tighter, but it still didn't fix it. Has anyone had this issue and if so how to fix? i did have a look at the lever side but i was not in the position to lift up the carpet to just fix one lever. It's ok i can just use the key to open the boot but not ideal.

2015 Nissan 300ZX Z32 Twin Turbo (2015-10-24 13:45:56)

In case anyone is interested this zx has some nice features in it. it has recaros, brembo brakes, nice rims, braided break lines and a stainless exhaust, would make a nice track car. - - - Updated - - - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-300ZX-twin-turbo-/331687087598

Just finished my 350 drift to go with my 300 what do you all think

pretty sure i know the answer to this but after fitting a pretty much straight through exhaust im getting intermittent blue smoke out of my passenger exhaust im guessing its turbo seal time but it being intermittent seems odd. Always at idle but will be fine for a day then just do it while sitting thanks in advance :)

Hi All, I will be picking up a recent import 300zxTT soonest, I understand it has a great Pioneer multifunction system installed that's worth a few quid, BUT its obviously still in Japanese. Do any the lads know if I can switch this to English instruction's etc and get the sat/nav/DVD player to work in the UK? Any advice would be welcomed, Cheers!

Cant believe that i am so close to getting my zed back....its been nearly a year but now she is ready . just the MOT to do and get the sticky gauges sorted out then she will be coming home for good..... thanks to Jimmer for treating big red like she was his own ...for never giving up..and for sorting out all the niggles and glitches ...a few hiccups along the way but that is life with zeds... but soon ..very soon i will be a very happy man .....im just thinking do i need to fit small spacers on the back rims just to push them out a tad ...maybe 10 mm ? was hoping not to do this as i paid a lot for the image alloys to be custom built but the measurements were taken w…

This months COTM is now open for voting in the Competitions sub forum. As I extended the entry period by 5 days I've also extended the voting by 5 days. So the poll won't close until the 5th of November. Next months COTM will still open on the 1st of the month as usual.

Being a bit of a gauge watcher, I have always marveled at just how quick my boost gauge would show positive boost. In fact, it used to be quite difficult to drive her and be below "0" under most conditions. Up until lately she would pull vacuum on over run of -13/14psi and hit +14psi with no trouble at all giving a real smooth and yet powerful response. Of late however, the gauge and performance of the car has suddenly changed. I first noticed that in first and second gear under mild acceleration up to around 4000-5000 rpm, the boost gauge hits the -7psi and starts to bounce, it's only if I hit the accelerator hard to the floor does she get to +14psi but not fo…

Nearly got run off the road today by a DeLorean that appeared out of nowhere.....:sweatdrop:

Im loving the 300zx time machine in the banner as a tribute to Back to the Future, nice work Lee :bow:

I started car up after work and it wasn't running right, put it down to crap in the fuel as was fairly low and drove to petrol station. Opened the lid there to find the cap missing... Now the car ran perfectly in the morning so I think I might have leaned on the lever when opening the boot. I'm thinking during the day some idiot with 3 brain cells saw the lid open and thought it would be funny to take the cap.... It was in a multi story parked next to the door so in clear view of everyone who walked onto that floor. Tried an mx5 cap which fits but doesn't seem to seal so wondering if anyone has a spare to sell?

Just spotted this car on Ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1998-Nissan-300-3-0-ZX-Targa-3dr-/231655733171?hash=item35efc1f7b3:g:UboAAOSwgQ9V0Jom supposedly a 1998 NA auto for £4000. I know they are now beginning to creep up in price but I also noticed that the seatbelts are on the doors which means pre 1991. Looks clean though and low mileage if it can be preoven.

I am usually pretty good at working out how people came to a decision. But at what point and with how many beers did someone go hmmmmmm- I reckon.......

was just watching this vid and spotted a green 300zx its at 1.57 if you want to skip to it wondering if its some one off here
