Hi guys, can anyone tell me what injectors these are? I think I got them off John Dixon in 2010

Hi dose any one have a good air con rad for sale.? R134a rad?

Right guys... I sent out a few emails regarding some body parts from various suppliers, The first crowd was Twinchip regarding the rear bumper, this is coming in at €518 plus €374 shipping to Ireland, a total of €892. Now they did say that there would be room in the box for other parts like the front bumper etc and that i'd get a 10% discount if I ordered more than 1 part. I got an email back from CZP regarding Kaminari skirts, these retail at $544 plus $175 shipping. Kaminari are going to come back to me also regarding direct shipping from their factory. My question is... Would there be anyone in Ireland looking for any of these parts so we could share the cost …

Hi all,needeing some advice again.Grrr....had a recon auto box fitted yesterday,now we have a problem that there is no power getting to starter motor.The engine started fine every time before this gearbox was fitted,so is there anyone who may have a soloution???

Went for a spin up to Newry today, picked up a few bits. Things are starting to get going on the Zed front.

I've finally chosen my seats, going for corbeau pro series seats, 1 regular for me, and a gt(wide) for passenger seat, but can't decide on colours, seats are black, red/black, blue/black or grey/black, don't want the bright colours but grey/black did look good, What does anyone think? And harness colour? I'm liking the 75mm purple 5 point. Corbeau are only a few miles from me so it's ideal, It's for the silver slicktop.

Just thought id stick this up for those upgrading the fuel pump and own a SWB. Saves you taking it apart and then realising you need extra bits. I needed to buy some in tank fuel hose as the one supplied was not long enough as it is for the LWB Zed. Make sure its R10 stuff and ok for in tank use. Heres some pics of how i installed it. Note i had to wire to existing loom as wiring was also too short to go to the top connectors.

Does anyone know anything about borbet alloy wheels had a look online but not any recent reviews on them. Many thanks raph

it wasn't me :)

Recently I was driving along when I heard a grinding noise, I pulled over thinking it was the bumper half hanging off but quickly realised it was coming from the engine. Ended up getting it towed to a mechanics and he thinks it's something to do with the crankshaft/bearings. He's put it up on the ramp but thinks it will have to be an engine out job and due to this he has suggested getting a donor car and doing a straight swap. So I have a few questions for you guys: 1-Can the crank be removed without pulling the engine? 2-Where would be the best place to get a donor 300 or a replacement VG30? 3-Would it have to be a Manual-Manual engine swap or would a VG out of an …

Hi anybody know a good car upholstery company at a good price got a quote for my z this morning for £10000 lol

Not a favorite in the Z family and often over looked but prices are rising in good clean examples of our unloved cousin. If you see a good one for little money it would be worth buying and keeping :yes: This is a nice example starting of at 99p I expect it to sell for well over 2k . What do you think? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300ZX-Z31-TURBO-RARE-MANUAL-/151685631552?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item23512b0e40

Hi all. I am after some advice. I have a 1988 Nissan 300zx that I bought in 1998 and took it off the road in July 1998 when I got a company vehicle. It was declared sorn that year but at the time I never realised you had to renew it. I never had any further dealings with the dvla over the car and I moved house in 2002. I took the car with me and put it in a garage where it has stayed since then. I am now looking to put the car back on the road but I'm worried that I will face a hefty fine for A: not continuing to sorn the vehicle and B: for not changing my address when I moved and lastly facing a back tax fine. Has anyone been in the same situation as I am and ho…

Just had this shipment come in can anyone guess the contents?

well guys, removed my hicas and need the tracking doing, just wanted to know what is a good rear camber and toe setting? and would after market alloys effect the alignment? thanks in advance :)

So, I just noticed that the doors from my old (92) Zed have a lot more going on inside of them than the doors on my project (90) Zed. I havent had time to investigate, but I think I've come to the conclusion that my project (90) Zed doesnt have central locking. My old (92) Zed had remote central locking through the Toad. My project (90) Zed has no alarm, so I'm wondering if it was something that came with the alarm. I had thought all Zeds came with central locking as standard? I'm sure one of you good people know the answer? I've already looked at http://www.300zx.org.uk/model_variations.htm, but it doesn't covered it, just remote CL.

well i'm just waiting the call to tell me the zed is ready to collect after what was going to be a simple sill repair welding wise which turned into, both rear sills, both front sills, and both rear bumper supports, glad to say they have had a first class job done on them by guy eastwood, who jeff tt reccomended to me (he did all the zedworld welding jobs) so has done hundreds of zeds, so i knew the car was in safe hands. here are a few pics of work in progress, he is also waxoilin the box sections to help protect them.

Morning all, does anyone know if the steering column size and splines are the same on airbag and non airbag versions? My zed is non cruise, non hicas, with airbag, my local momo supplier only lists non airbag fitment. not bothered about the electrical side of things just the actual fitment to the column. thanks.

Had a great weekend at beaulieu motor museum with the other car club i'm in, auto jumble was on as well and the sun was out both days

I'm wanting your ideas really on what might improve the looks of my car (externally). Generally, I think I looks pretty nice but as with everything, there's always more than can be done so I'm interested in what opinions people have. Please don't be shy, I certainly don't take offence if others are keen and all that. Here's a couple of pictures of the car:

Has anyone done this? I'm fed up with the sight of the awkward series 2 PTU sub harness and want to wire the sub harness connectors straight to the main loom with new connector boots and heat shrink.....I'm a dab hand at soldering. Before I unpick the sub harness, is there anything I need to be mindful of? Is it as simple as it looks?
