Hi guys, I have bought a 300zx Twin Turbo with approx 100,000 KPH on the clock (60,000 miles). It should be ready to collect next week and I cant wait :hyper: However, I have just found out that a work colleague has had two of them and he said they are very unreliable. He said both of his kept braking down and he's a mechanic! :x: Have you found 300zx's to be reliable? Thanx

My electric fan runs from the moment I start my engine. No a/c on and engine cold so it shouldnt do this. Is there a relay that could be stuck on or summint???

Hello people ive just purchased a 1991 zx300 non turbo auto and was wondering it has 113000 miles on the clock it has uk mph stickers on the clocks does this mean that the mileage is in miles or is the mileage clock still in kph due to it being a targa import? also is 113000 many miles on these cars? it have been well looked after and has recently had a timing belt fitted and service carried out.

Alright here is the deal, I went to get an alignment courtesy of the guy I bought it from and I had them check the car all they way over and found the following things wrong I plan to do in the next week. I am new to this car and dont know what kind of materials or fluids to buy or specialty tools so if you tell me or post links make sure to tell me those things, I appreciate you guys so much, I am in love with this car already. 1.

Transmission is leaking, not sure what to do, ap…

Whats the black fan on the front of a rad to do? I thought it was for air con?? But it seems to be running when I dont have the a/c on. Not noticed it when starting up but def going when I get back. Engine hot. Any ideas?

OK, anyone got any idea what's about to let go......? the Z makes a low grinding/grumbling noise after coming to a stop - the noise is just like brakes grinding but is only apparent after the car comes to a stop, and then goes away after just a couple of seconds. Could be doing it while I'm stopping too of course, but can't hear that due to road noise etc. Gearbox bearings maybe ? :confused: Ta !
