does anyone know if the 'Z' badge between the headlights on an import is the same size as the 'Nissan' on a UK car? some git has nicked mine and I fancy replacing it with a 'Z' rather than the Nissan burger.

Auto to manual, Is the engine exactly the same in the 2? And is it then just in the autobow where the power (bhp figures) difference lies :confused: Does anyone know for definate?

As above :headvswal

Hi, I currently drive an Accord Type-r, however, i think i want some big power and after checking insurance on a UK 300zx, i think that this may be the car for me. Just wondering what sort of mileage/condition car i should expect for £7k, i've searched the classifieds and can only find cars around the 3-4k mark. Anyone help? Thanks, Matt. :D

I bought this Zed a couple of weeks back and I need to replace one of the wheels but I dont know what they are. Does anyone on here recognise them?

Well after getting new engine and numerous auto boxes replaced she thought she would decide to blow a coolant line. Got back from work ok, and checked to see if I had any leaks from autobox. No leaks from autobox, cool, but instead a load of coolant was coming from somewhere at the rear of the engine bay right in the middle, anyone got any ideas?? Cheers.

Hi there, since selling my 2nd 200sx I'm now wanting a 300 tt but cant find out if its best to go for a UK or Import. seems to be conflicting info about this so any advice is welcome. i feel like i'm :headvswal at the moment cheers Matt

I bought one Z fuel pump on Ebay, it problably comes from an US TT version (2+0) as the strainer (bottom-end filter) is not attached to the pump itself but to a longer hose. On the 2+2 TT, the strainer + pump is straight. I just re-used the fuel pump unit itself. I had some difficulties to put back the pump in place in the tank. I think the bottom-end filter hits the plastic compartment (reserve) at the bottom of the tank. I finally managed to push it inside but by forcing a bit, and I hope the bottom-end filter is still attached or the pump body is still attached to the rubber bracket. Is there any experience about this ? Is there a special angle or tri…

I have just recieved some suspension off a member on here and the fronts are KYB AJX but the rears are Tokico M-B Z-32-R they have an adjustment bolt on the top as shown in pictures which is red with numbers 1 - 5 on them. Has anybody ever come across this make before and are they any good?? I have not fitted the springs to them yet before anybody say's. Thanks in advance.

Hi All Just wondering if anybody has ever exported a car to say Oz? How much does it cost and how do you do it? Just wondering........ :nana2:

Right guys, I need your considered advice and expertise; I want to put in three extra gauges in the extra DIN slot so: 1. Where can i get gauges that look STOCK (i.e. same colours and intensity of lighting - completely stock to match speedo). 2. Which gauges are recommended? 3. Most people say go for water temp gauge - isnt the Oil temp the important thing? 4. I was thinking of getting two analogue gauges and one digital readout - does anyone know of any readout that looks like the display in the aircon system on a series II (i.e the Blue digital readout)? Cheers guys

Is there a guide somewhere to removing the air con? I'm sure I've seen one, but just spent 20 minutes searching and can't find it.

They just stay on :confused: Only when I indicate, doesn't matter if I indicate left, right or hazards. It used to happen before but not all the time and when I switched the car off and back on they would work properly, but now it's been two days and they just stay on each time I try to signal. Help... Also is it ok to drive the car like this?

Could someone perhaps advise me where on the VG engine it could possibly drop 3-4 litres of oil from within 30 secs? Got in the car this afternoon, kicked it up, drove 10 yards and heard a liquidy hissing/spluttery noise, 20 secs later oil pressure dropped to 0, so pulled over. looked in the road and theres a 50 meter streak of oil, a peek under the car and i saw a nice puddle of oil and it was all dripping off the subframe! :( Ive had a good look underneath and I cant figure for the life of me where it all could have come from, and so fast :( any ideas? Really had enough now, lots of time and money spent over the past couple months and my lucks gett…

Where do ZX owners go in the SW for specialist non main dealer support? I've just bought a ZX but need to run it past someone that knows how to set the car up properly.
