Hi all, This year has flown by, so before it's too late, we have to chose our exhibitors for this year's show.... Classic Motor Show | NEC Birmingham (necclassicmotorshow.com) It's a full-on event; you will have to be there on Thursday 11th November (at a specific time allocated by the NEC) to place your car on the stand - and you will not be able to drive away again until late evening on Sunday 14th November. You may, of course, drop your car off on Thursday and then return to collect it on Sunday - subject to leaving the keys with one of us who will be there for the duration. However it would be preferable if you could also stay and man the stand f…

Any one know of a kit going or where to enquire? I stupidly thought I’d just call Bonzai Breakers and I’ll get a kit. They don’t have any and there’s a waiting list?. Was hoping to get it done over this winter.

Hello everyone! I've been lurking on here every now and then since selling up in 2016 but I've really been feeling the itch to get back in a 300zx for the last couple of years. I've been watching the markets for the 'right' one for the past year and not much has come up that got me very excited. I do have a question for which I tried searching the forum and couldn't find an answer....is anyone able to recommend insurers/brokers for Jap imports? ? Of course I google searched also but anyone with a positive experience of any would be good to know!

Hi folks I have brought my Zed down to Devon and now need fuel, BUT every garage I have been to has run out if Super? So do I risk it with a bit of e10 regular until I can find some e5 super?

They seem to have a good reputation but the prices are even more than Samco! Anyone running Roose hoses? views etc? tempted but not sure it's worth paying the extra?

Just ordered new tyres front & rear. 225/40 Goodyear’s front & 265/35 Nankang rear both 18s fitting Saturday, I have Bridgestone on the front at the moment with nankang rear. Same setup when I imported my zed. So I have gone with Goodyear at the front this time. I haven’t had any tyre issues to be honest so should be happy with the set up.

What spark plug, and what spark plug gap would you reccomend for a 300 ZX TT running a forged engine, with GT525 turbos, and a Nitrous system, please bear in mind the nitrous is only used ocassionally at the drag strip, and introucdiced via minimax controllerr. The car also runs Link G4 + ECU. Thanks

My TT Zed has the hicas simply unplugged from the power steering pump in the engine bay... I have a complete N/A for breaking which does not have hicas, so is it relatively simple to switch over the pumps? Unfortunately I cannot have the 2 cars side by side because the N/A is parked in a storage yard. Essentially I want to clear up the engine bay as much as possible so getting rid of the hicas pump will be a start. So who has done the N/A PAS pump conversion to their TT? any advice much appreciated?

Hi all, I am finally ready to start putting the work into my Z. Its been garaged since 2014. Its mostly original and I intend to keep it that way. Please could you recommend places to purchase OEM spares. I need to replace all the brake lines, hose and pipe. Any recommendations for hard pipe and fittings? Running gear has corrosion and I'll need to replace that which cannot be cleaned up. Yours hopefully Rob

Hi Guys, If you were in the North of England and you wanted a quality restoration/re-commission on your car. Where would you go? TIA.

Is there much difference worth worrying about? Hids4u.co.uk have the H1 6500K in stock for the ZX but not the 5500K, the 6500K will supposedly have a blue tinge whereas the 5500K will be a purer white?

I have a very irritating vibration / rattle sound somewhere around the engine, does anyone had this sound before or knows what it can be?....it drives me nuts!
