Does anyone know where i can get hold of a plain carbon fibre Z bonnet with no vents? Cheers!

Will be getting a stainless steel exhaust. I would like four pipes out the back. Like the Mongoose But don,t know which one to get. Can I do away with the cat & will I need to set the engine up & air intakes ect....Sorry to be so thick but don't know much about exhaust......Or is there a better one to put on a Zed?

I have recently purchased a nissan 300zx non turbo and the dials have not been converted to MPH, and i was wondering if anyone knows A. how easy it is to change this and B. if there is anywhere near brighon that does this?

was thinkin of having this done whilst the cars in pieces - had a little search - but most prices seem to involve the whole kaboodle inc engine removal. whats an average price for having the 2 turbos reconned (and what can be done to improve them?) has anyone used turbo developments or turbo dynamics? cheers mowgs

been offered an exhaust off an NA, cat back system, but i have a TT - will it fit?

Does anyone know the maximum power an N/A diff can take? Also are there any figures for improvement in 0-60 times etc? Is it a straight swap or are other bits required?

Will these fit my zed do you think? If they fit a Skyline will they fit a 300? So far the guy has asked if it is a twin turbo I have or not. eBay wheels

Just had a call from Nissan, who have said that the rear diff is ready to collapse. Ufortunately, this means nothing to me, can anyone put this into girlie speak for me??????

That means new pads are required yes? Or i ran over a mouse :)

Drop me a line - cottcomp2@aol.com or call 01553 765533 anytime. Cheers, Paul.

If anyone has any info or contacts details or info about various SuperChargers for fitment on a zed then please post up..any links appreciated... Thanks :duffer:

alright people i have done a search but got a load of random stuff... so how do i get a pic inserted into my sig?

Hi everyone, I've found a crack through my front bumper adjacent to one of the intercooler vents (I've got a '93 TT in black). TBH you wouldn't even know it was there unless you were looking because you basically have to lie on the ground to see it. However, it does mean that one side of the bumper is ever so slightly lower than the other and it does occasionally catch the odd speed bump. Annoying thing is I know exactly when it happened, and it's completely my fault because I approached the ramp into Staples car park just slightly too quickly and caught it on the way up - I wasn't really paying full attention to how steep the ramp actually is. Point is,…

My aircon appears to be backlight, but the section on the right hand side of the wheel (cruise switch and the dimmer) does not. Is there an easy way to swap out the bulbs for this section? Anyone got any pics? This was a pig of a job on my 200sx is it any better on a zed?

saw 2 today, grey one aproaching fleet servises south bound on M3 about lunchtime and then a black one aproaching guildford on A31 about 6pm

hello! Ive been a fan of the 300zx scince they came out and now i cant resist i have to own one my trouble is which one i was lookin at the twin turbo but most are autos i would love a manual but i know they are rare as rockin horse crap! I wolud be thankfull for any advice offered on mpg, insurance and performance times on both auto and manual. Does the auto box kill all the fun? Is it cheap to convert them? I am 24 and have full no claims and been quoted around £950 (import was £1700)for both AUTO and MANUAL with ADRAIN FLUX does this sound ok? Any help will be appriciated THANKS!

Hi there,anyone know where to get a brand new clutch for an N/A? Mines has just started slipping and will need replaced in the (very) near future? Any help would be great Thanks...Ronnie

hello My car is a series 1. Would it be possible to fit a series 2 climate control pod onto the dash? Would any modifications be required?

has anyone ever had a problem with their reversing light going??? mine went in december (apparently reverse light switch) , had it fixed and noticed its gone again.Just wondered if there is something wrong with my manual gearbox. The lights not a major issue i know but mot's looming. No its not the bulb! :tongue:

Travelling towards Ringwood at about 5.25pm. It had an aftermarket nose panel. I didn't see you but my girlfriend did, she's getting better at noticing the finer details of Z's! :dance:

I know, I know, you'll all say I should have bought a TT but I'm fed up with trying to xsort out problems with turbo'd cars so I've gone back to the good old NA engine. I've heard you can squeeze about 280 - 290 out of an NA and I'm interested in finding out what people have done to get close to those figures.

a red light comes on when i go fasti sh not to fast and goes off when i slow down and the car feels like its missing on a plug or something it look light 2 lines going to a box and a sort of ssssss above it dont no how to post a pic of it looks like something geting hot ?

Anyone use delphi gauges? are they any good? They are v expensive so they cant be too bad?

Just went and collected my zed (black tt manual 52000miles). Was fine on the 50 mile journey back and now seems to be pumping horrible shite from the exhaust and sometimes cuts out when i'm stopping! It hasn't been given a proper drive for ages up until now and I took it easy. Anybody got any ideas and what should the oil pressure gauge read. Help would be appreciated as I've waited ages for a decent low mileage car and would be mortified if this was a cronk!!

is there any reason why a head unit imported from the states wouldnt work over here? im looking at a few and the freq spacing is the same as here but im after a combined dvd style head unit (obviously play region 1 dvds only) but anything else that might be different/catch me out?
