Hi Have been trying to buy a HID conversion kit but am gettting confused by the bulbs. Have searched the site and it comes up with H3 low beam and H1 high beam. When I go to some sites and choose 300zx 1990 to 1996 it comes up with 9006 low beam and 9005 high beam and H3 fog beam. What is the difference and what bulbs should I get. My car is a 1990 SWB TT Jap import. Thanks Darrell

Since I'm slowly cleaning up, refitting and renewing all the bolts and trim around the front end, I thought I'd replace the miserable and truely pathetic 1983 Datsun Cherry 1.3 DX style dual tone horns....yes....with some inferior GM componentry! Our local scrap yard guys are the most miserable chunts to grace the earth...more miserable than me...by quite a long shot. Had a load of loom and the nice quality sounding dual tone Hella horns off the front of an Omega. Miserable chunt wants a fiver for them, I said 'cool, but only got plastic'. To which grumpy chunt replies "Oh fuckin' hav' 'em then, can't be bothered". To which I said "Oh gee, thanks mate". “Yeah wh…

I've heard people here in France that relocate the knock sensor while engine is out. But i've only heard that in France, so does any one can confirm? :D (I don't trust French :rant: :rant: )

Happy birthday fella :duffer: :duffer: have a great day! :D

C'mon? Was it? Was it you that stole the Stella's from my fridge? :mac1:

Guys, hope you can help, this is a bit embarassing, but I don't know who else I can turn to :( Basically, I've just been for a shit (so far so good), I then, like any normal person does, wiped my arse (you'd think all was going well). Unfortuately, I now have a piece of andrex stuck to my arse and I don't know how to get it off :cry: My first port of call was the Andrex Customer Helpline advertised on the back of the packet (great! you think, some helpfull advice!). Bloody answerphone! :cry: I'm not leaving a message for them all to laugh at in the morning! So what do I do guys? What makes it worse is I have a hot date to pick up first thing :cry: C'mon guys help …

im thinking about getting one of these how hard a job would it be for a body shop to cusomise it to be able to fit a standard uk number plate on instead of the import style? cheers, nick

:D :D :D :D Just had the Z out for the first time in weeks :bow: :bow: fook how i missed it! went out to try and use up the fuel in the tank before its parked up for winter ( and to get some welding done ). done 80 odd miles and theres still half a tank...... fook im gonna have to do it all over again tomorrow :D :D :D :D

Didn't have any luck on the items wanted forum so I'll give it another try here. My new Z came with a velour drivers seat and a tweed passenger seat. Anyone know a good source for Z seats? Mine's a black 1990 SWB N/A with black interior. Open to any option, could buy just the one passenger seat in velour or maybe I can spring for two used ones in leather, or just cover both with fresh leather.

Hi, I have provisonally sold my crx so i can now start the hunt for a zed. After reading the forum and having a little think im pretty sure i kno wwhat im after so just looking for your input as well. The criteria Budget - £2500 - £3000 Use - Mainly motorway trips up to Dundee and back. Must have - Targas, Manual gearbox Would Like - Leather, Cruise Controll Track Days - no track or drag days So i recon im after a N/A, even though the insurence on the TT is cheaper by around £200 im guessing the reduced maintanence costs and petrol costs will even it out. What do you think? -Barry

Well at last i have a weekend off, no pipes, boilers baths crap like that, im now on a mission to take the bloody engine out or the zed, as its peeing me off seeing it just sat there doing sod all, anyone fancy giving me a hand.

3 wires running to the plug, 1 live 1 neutral (methinks!) whats the third please? earth??

Cheers For today m8 for getting my car back to firing on 6! Wait till I see the prick who wired in my traction control :mac1: oh and a dodgy coil pack ;) . This man sure knows what he is doing. Was'nt the best of rides home though, dark and raining :( wanted to test 4th on the motorway. Cheers again Paul. Still think I have a bit of air in clutch though, was biting at the top when got home.

Has any member ever made or had made for them, a custom exhaust using aftermarket back boxes. Wondered about the problems encountered and costs involved.
