i'm sure he could have done better if he didn't jump http://japcardijon.free.fr/drag_300zx.mpg

In an attempt to keep the car looking as standard as possible but at the same time upgrading the brakes to R33's or from a 350 what's does everyone think about using spacers with the standard wheels, will this give me the offset i need to put bigger brakes on or is it also the internal diameter of th wheels i need to increase hence go from 16" to 18" so i can fit the brakes inside th wheel....... Just a thought!

The turbo i'm using are TD05-16G, i have forged piston, forged rods and metallic head gasket. Any advice? Should i sell the 555cc, FPR and buy PE 850cc kit from Z1motorsport? Thank you

Well my indiglo dials are finally fitted in my Zed, whoop :dance: I can't take any credit as I got the auto electrician to pick my car up from work in the morning, re-wired my front lights (had bad connections), fitted my dials and calibrated my speedo and kindly returned my car to work for me to finish and ride her home. I know that most of you (who got them) will be fitting them yourself but I quite enjoyed this way. :)

how hard is it to change oil and gear box coolers is it a DIY job??

Hi there, I´m new in your forum, lots of looking around, thats my first writing (i´m austrian, so excuse my mistakes :( ) I got my Z in October and I´m working every weekend, to get it ready before the season starts. I just installed my new LED-rearlight panel, which has now car-colour, also the "plastic-stripe" on the trunk. Now I´m searching for the right decals for my Z. As I was searching, i found the endings V-spec and J-spec, but I dont know nothing about it. Can you help me with some details? I know that V-spec maybe isn´t 300ZX. What does it mean and what is the different between a "normal" Z and a J-spec? Thanks a lot, great …

I have a swb tt, and has been set up to run up to 1.5 bar boost, and has undergone an ecu chip, various internal components etc etc. It's going on the rollers in march and I'd like to have some kind of idea of what sort of power to expect at around 1.3 / 1.5 bar boost, bhp and torque, as people are asking at what I'm expecting and I've no idea to be honest. I think these are about 280 - 300bhp standard are they? So any guesses on power running around 1.3 rr 1.5 would be super smashing great :smash:

had a great surprise on getting home from the states this morning next doors fukin roof tile smashed into the rear left of my zed :mad: :headvswal , just hope he,s insured for building insurance as ive not seen him yet :rolleyes:

Well got round to doing my Zed yesterday for the dreaded compression test. All was going well then it happend!!!! :headvswal One of my cylinders was shot :cry: . Not even a reading. All new plugs were put in the day before and were black except one which had been nicely cleaned by the fuel that had decided to flow through it. Pi##ed off is not the word. Does anyone have any idea of how i can get the my car back to the uk. I havent much help out here :cry: :cry: :cry: Why now ffs

Need the part numbers off of both. Bought some injectors which were supposed to be 555s, fitted them to the car & they ran like crap - very lean. Have taken them out of the rail & they are completly different colour to Nismo 555s & they have Nissan part numbers on them. Am trying to figure out what these injectors actually are before I waste any more money on them. Jay

Thinking of buying one of the Blue Flame with Oval pipe exhausts,anyone got them recommend them? I have a Mongoose twin pipe but fancy something a little different/better sounding...... Any thoughts...also any HP gain (probably more noise than gain!!!)

What 300ZX have we got that could be feaured in magazines? Obviously they need significant mods, either cosmetic or performance related. Off the top of my head: Jason's CJ's Mac's Karl's Are there any others making 500+bhp or that are real visual stunners?
