went to my local spares shop to see how much a fuel filter would be £11.43 is this about right i got an oil filter from them last year and it was proper japanese filter they seem ok i just thought £11.43 was quite cheap

Looking at this :- http://300zx-twinturbo.com/cgi-bin/manual.cgi?list=ma&dir=&config=&refresh=&slide=10&cycle=off&scale=0&design=default&total=33 and with mine being a jspec, would I go for the lower amount on the gearbox (2.8l) and diff (1.5l) ? CheerZ Paul

Is There A Correct Precdure Of Removing Front Bumper,and Are They A Paine To Line Up Again Because If They Are Ill Do What I Want To Do Leaving The Dame Thing On. Thanks

1115am ish today, J-spec 2+2 with the Enzo :hurl: Sorry, rear lights :D Was it YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!! :)

I have done a quick search and cannot find the answer I am after. :headvswal Is it only the TTs that need to worry about detting? or will a Japanese spec N/A suffer from using cheap fuel? Thanks in advance, Mike...

How much and where from ? CheerZ peeps

they are off a Nissan 200sx s14 front 8.5x18 ET 35 rear 9.5x18 ET 35 Also can you recomend tyre size for both front and rear pls idealy as big as i can go. could i get 275's on the rears? oh it's not a wide arch 300 completely standerd.

Hi fellaz From stand still, when i put my foot on the loud pedal, the engine slows right down, pauses then takes off. WTF is all that about, nearly been crashed into a few times a roundabouts when I've tried to nip out and the engine/gearbox have thought otherwise. It even stalled on me yesterday, pulling away. VERY worried :(

Sorry if Im being thick here :) I tried yesterday to get some heat resistant paint on glue for my retrim. B&Q advised me to just use std contact adhesive. Has anyone got a brand name thats tried and tested that I can go and buy on the way home. Where did you guys get yours from too. what temp rating should it be too? I know its a million and one questions but I just wanna pick some up tonight and make a start - and I only wanna do it once - dont want summer to come round then have to retrim where it bubbles up. Cheers.

I am having a rear tub put on my 2+2 but I don't no if I am going to opt for a spoiler (what type might be be a separate question for the photoshop guru's). I have seen tubs on the SWB but not on the LWB please if anyone has tub pics of the LWB version can you post them so I can view. Cheers

Please forgive me for asking basic questions but I need to clarify this as a bit lost. The A pillar pod(s) that are available in ebay etc. , are they just a universal fit for the Z32 or do they need to be vehicle specific ? I mean, how do they fit onto the existing A pillar ? I always thought you removed the original A pillar and whacked these on like a clip system of somekind. Now the next question is, if I buy one from the US then will they be compatible with our right hand drive Zeds ? Thanks

Hi, I have noticed today that some of the clips on my driver side door card have broken. Just wondered if it were possible to replace them, and if so, what the part number was? Cheers, Chris

right heres the sketch, im only 21 young yes i know, only had a full license over year, did have a 200sx insured but cancelled the insurance as it broke so aint got any no claims. and i need to get insurance on a jap spec TT. yep thats gonna be hard i hear u say! need to work out some ideas though if i had another cheaper car that i was fully comp on i.e a 1 litre uno or something equally hideous would i not be 3rd party to drive any other car? i.e the zed? or whats the sketch with being a 2nd driver on my old mans insurance? anyone got any suggestions? please explain them if u have! i know yes its gonna cost big time, i earn a hell of a lot for my age, so tha…

Nice yellow 300zx today 11am (ish) northbound on the A1 near Galleleria (spelling) I was southbound in the Volvo.

Im thinking of buying a tt auto 300zx. Its cheap with full leather and in pretty good shape! Problem is there seems to be a water leak from somewhere, when driving the car it will heat but the car will idle all day without heating if you keep topping it up? Any ideas??? Also there seems to be a blow out from in round the turbo (making a whistley rattle noise) the guy said that there is a gasket in there away?? Please help/advise, car is under a grand! Thanks.

I need some metal work done to the following specs if anyone here can help let me know!! 2 Stainless rods of M14 diameter, one end threaded to M10 X 1.5mm thread the threaded section being 2 inches long, each having 10 inches of un threaded round bar. if possible let me know cost please! my usual guy is now on holiday and i need this as soon as.

Black zed spotted between Methley and castleford this morning about 7.40 am?Was it black slag?

sombody posted these up a while back and was wondering who sells em'?? Cheers!

Hi there, I was rather hoping someone could help me out here..... I have a 91 Jap import auto Fairlady, derestrictor chip, cone air filter and twin Bailey dump valves, I have removed both cats and both centre boxes (replaced with stainless) and have Kakimoto rear boxes. She boosts at 11 psi and holds and I run her on SUPER UNLEADED so?????? Waht do we think the BHP might be, I have no idea and would appreciate any educated guesses as shes hitting the rollers on the 18th and they want an "owners estimate" before hand. Be cool Jase :)

Hi I've always wanted a 300ZX and I guy I know is selling one. It's a 1989 G Plate Twin Turbo Automatic Fairlady. Does anyone know anything about these? ie is it a good one or is it the one to steer clear of? Oh and I have been on http://www.confused.com for an insurance quote and it came back very high. Any ideas on this? Thanks 300zxwannabee

Have to say thanks to Scubie again; as he has just fitted a nice set of HID's to the Zed and what a differance it makes. Simple to fit; plug and play ! so who cares if most of the instructions are in Jap ! :tongue: Recomend this up-grade to anyone .! :duffer: :duffer: Kit from Ryan at Zed Tech Marcus

My wifes J-Spec TT is very slow to start. Can take about 10 seconds before it fires up. It turns over fast enough, i.e battery is giving plenty Any ideas?

me wheels have a plastic pop in centre, can you get these with a zed logo on em ?
