"G" registration, Black Zed. Bodykit Fitted, but not painted (might of been a Wings west kit?)

I have replaced my headunit with a new high end Kenwood Unit. Only just found out why my speakers are now not working with it. i.e. they are 4 Bose units with built in Amps. From what I have read it seems best to replace them. I know nothing about speakers. I simply want some good replacement ones, not trying to blow the doors off! Maybe spend up to £100. This is for a 1994 Mk4 Twin Turbo, with two door speakers and two rear boot speakers. Can anyone tell me what sizes I need for front and back and what they would recommend in terms of specification and/or specific models and best place to get them from? Thanks................

I ve done some checking on the electrical parts of my car and it seems that a have a bad relay only thing i dont know what is there. Is on the left side of the car in the back seat behind the safaty belt panel. I think is either the fuel pumb controller or some kind of an amplifier. Anyone knows what it is?

does anyone know the measurements for the fuel hose to the pressure regulator i need to buy some on the way home from work and haven't the time to find it thanks

Guys, I ordered some car stuff (from a domestic company, not foreign) which was going to be delivered by City Link on the 1st December but I have received nothing to date. I contacted the company (I'd ordered from) and they said that i have been delivered the parcel and some body has signed for it (but the signatory's name is different to anybody's name at my house). They provided me with City Link's phone number to contact them regarding my parcel. I have also checked with my neighbours and they haven't received anything for me either. I have been foning city link since yesterday but they couldn't get in touch with the driver and when i foned them today, t…

Hi all, after speaking to a few members at the last meet at northamton about a dyno day just throught id see about what sort numbers would be up for trying their Zed's on a dyno. i have spoke to a local company called SUPERCHIPS, where i used to work who are up for it about febuary time. its a rolling road dyno, so drive on strap it down and off you go, prices are somewhere around £30 to £50 per run but thats to be confirmed. What do you think ???

Yesterday, Thursday 2nd December. "Delightfully tacky, yet unrefined !" ;)

Hiya, I've been thinking of getting a 300 for a wee while now, have driven several and have been impressed, but I know very little about them. This looks like a good place to start! I've had a string of e36 BMs, currently driving a 328 coupe, and i need a car that serves a purpose as a bit of a toy. I would probably be driving the car at weekends, and abandoning it most of the week, so 10,000miles a year is the absolute max I'll be doing, and probably closer to 5k. Here is the crux, how good is a 300ZX gonna be as a car that's used when it's required? I don't have the patience to come to use the car to find it's full of water, not starting or anything …

Anyone here got any sensible views on water injection. There is a 300 in some online mag running 14psi without any chip upgrade and its supposed to be very good. No Detting. Thanks

Well got greeted today by an unmarked vectra flashing its blues & sounding its nasty two tone horn.Then a rather tall ? got out wearing black & white clothing and a massive smug grin."good afternoon sir, nice motor,do you know what I've pulled you for? . In my mind "gee let me think ,I'm driving something a bit different & your a TO**ER". Boy were my thoughts right ,he said the glass to the front of my A posts was too dark. I told him the car had been bought with this film already fitted but he was not interested.He said it should allow 70% of light through it .He then lowered the window and placed his gadget on it and took great satisfaction in telling me m…

I want it - is it specially made ? Or is it manufactered by some classy company? The side skirts look awsome

question ive just fitted my blitz SBC-ID and powermeter, thanks to zedhot, but im having difficultys with the powermeter. it gives usefull stuff like speed, power, various timing stuff. on the speed side the speed digital screen seems to make accurate readings till about 70 then jumps around and hesitates. the next screen down from that is the power and speed screen which shows both in one screen. the speed on this is reading what my dash speedo reads, which is mile out as i think the converter is buggered eg shows im doing 120mph when im doing about 80. the result of this is it is totally messing up my power readings, apparently my max power is over 1000bhp. t…

Anyone use Falkens FK-451's Only around £180 to spend on two rears 245s Reccomendations???

Does any know if, where or how i can get 2 seperate bass enclosures in the boot of my Z with enough room to still put the roof pannels in. I was thinking maybe 2 x 10'' or 12'' boxes, one in each rear corner. Has any one ever done anything like this????

Eh up Baggins Dont suppose you have a flash silver van sign-written with Z-Tech down the side and was in the Southcote Beefeater car park today? Me came in from work and stupidly said to the misses I was thinking of taking her out for a meal some time in which she replied: "Lets Go!" She didnt realise I meant Xmas 2005 :p But it was a nice steak washed down with Stella

Hey I may have some one interested in my wheels to fit a rx7 would these fit has any one sold a set of 18's to an rx7 owner thanks :)

how much for each as im changing at the weekend cheers

At just after midnight today a navy zed stopped and waved on the minley road roundabout and i was in a red zed heading toward the blackbush airpost. Just to say hello.

Can anyone help, does anyone know where I can get a decent replacment engine for my UK Manual 300ZX TT - i don't need turbo's as I had 2 new one's only a year ago. It's gonna be cheaper for me to do this than try and trace what we all thought was a head gasket problem. After stripping the engine down they were fine so there is obviously a major problem somewhere else. Oil getting into the water somewhere!!!

i have 2 wires out of my boost guage which allows it to light up... took off one of the pods to see where i could wire it to. anybody know where i should wire these to so i can light up my boost guage. also the same for my engine start button which is close to the ashtray

can you get bulbs that change the colour of your dash lighting up....

I was driving home from work tonite or stuck in traffic to be truthful when my Z cut out. I would not start it again but all seamed to be ok. Pushed it to the side of the road and waited for recovery. When he arrived it started first time ran for 5 min then stopped again. 10 min later same again???? Seems to be heat related? Got it going again and drove 7 miles home sat out side my house for 15 min all fine. I know Z's suffer from dodgy plugs under the bonnet but anyone know were to start looking?

when driving sometimes get a slight wobble from rear end hicas maybe? :confused: any solutions to fixing problem cheers :bow:

I was in the red import heading the other way. Didn't see you in time to flash my lights. :o

I was in the red import just behind the truck behind you.
