What do you think is a fair price for front and rear undertrays for a 300ZX? After a long search I found a used set in pretty good condition and I'm negotiating a price.

bac with my afc problems again . Now i know that if it is not set up correctly all sorts of bad things can happen but until i get it on the rolling road what should i do ???? i was thinking that running short of fuel is bad very bad but running rich is not so bad apart from the fuel consumption ??? so if i was to turn all five dials up to +30 the car would be safe at running 0.9kg/cm2 boost ???? or does anyone know what the dials should be turned to when running this amount of boost ??? ive read the instruction manual on the apexi website so im aware of the concept how the device works but there are no setting instructions at all . help if possible (please)

Is there supposed tobe a seal behind the rar lights? I seem to have loads of mastic and they leak water in if it rains.

Well, had to collect an item for my friend from her house and take it to her this morning so like a good friend I drive to her place collect item from her hubbie. Her driveway is a big long one that you go up one side pass the front door then carry on past and exit from the other side. I come in the nice sunny side no problems. I restart the engine and realize the exit side to the drive way has a puddle of ice. I think of trying to reserve back the way I come but realize I'd have to back out onto a busy A road. So I think about it and then her Tesco's delievery van comes up behind me so that's ways no go. Very carefully and in 2 gear I crawl at 2 or …

Ok ive made my mind up now to sell my zed I love the car to bits but ive wanted a escort cosworth from before i bought the zed and im gonna go down that road.

Hey guys, turned over the 300 today after ages and it sounded shagged! I knew the engine would need changing one day but was hopeing it would be later rather than sooner. Based on my assumption I may need to start looking for a new lump. I was just wondering how much a relatively good engine goes for nowadays or how much would a rebuild cost? up untill now me and my brother have been doing all the work ourselves in our free time i.e. changing the turbos, body kit, primer etc and i'm a junior accountant! LOL, So I won't be doing any of this myself anymore and would want to get it done from a professional. Any help and advice will be much appreciated. Cheers peep…

1st. Boost gauge sitting on "0" with the key in and not on and also on tick over , slap bang in the middle. Boosts fine and drives pefectly, the gauge goes up to around 9ish when opening it up. Clocks were taken out to have rings inserted could this be something as simple as a connection being knocked or moved? Was checked on datascan and no faults were found. Gave a code 55. No smoke either blue/white so was told it might be a boost leak. How do i find that out and what would it cost for someone to check that for me? 2nd. How much to repair and spray a front strosek bumper (scuffs-spiders cracks-chips), spiders cracks on the wide archs and repair a…

Hi Guys I am about to dip my toe into the world of the 300ZX and am having difficulty finding a decent insurer, particularly one that will deal with modified cars. My heart is set on a 1992+ TT with Targa roof but the insurance quotes I am getting are almost as much as the cost of buying the car, and that is just for an unmodified one. Is there a secret source of affordable Zed insurance known only to the iluminati of the Zed World or will I have to mortgage my child to get road legal?

my car is getting de-catted next weekend and i don't have the time just now to remove the AIV's,,,,,, can my mechanic just disconnect the two pipes going into the exhaust-cats and leave them hanging until i get round to removing them? or do they need blocked off?

Does anyone know where i could get the original factory Sony Cd player fitted to the '91 jap model? Or does someone have one for sale? My one has just shat itself. I know it would be easier to fit a more modern one, but i would like to keep the car as original as poss. Cheers

What size bolts go in those 2 little holes in the rotor to force the rotors off? Are they metric or imperial? fine or course thread? Thanks in advance.
