Hey guys! just fitted new aerial mast to my 92 zx does anyone have any spare parts or know where i can get some? dont want to pay stupid nissan prices! does anyone know if aftermarket tailgate gas struts are available. mine are weak and dealer wants £150 each! any help appreciated! p.s is there anyone in the Devon area with z's!

There is something strange going on here. My post "Can we put 300zx's on ramps" now has Andy duff at the top commenting on Ajay's signature. My other post "I thought my Engine has blown up :( " says Andyduff was the last one to post, but yet I can not see his comment made at the end of the thread ???? Are we having server problems ? Can anyone else see this or is it just me ?

Andy i've took out the clock this morning and yes i've lost your address again,can you ping it over? How long will it take to fix? Cheers Al

Whilst looking for a DIN panel to fit 52mm gauges into my new car I found this site for one for the 300zx, I thought someone might be interested. http://www.300degree.com/interior/dincluster/

Why are there 2 electrical wires going to the bit the seatbelt buckles into on the side of the seat?? I know its not one of those lights that tell you youre not wearing a belt as i never wear mine, but get no lights on the dash:confused:

Ive re installed my stereo and so far it hasnt tripped off like it used to, I think the reason it was doing this was because of a spasticated rear fog setup with the relay for it screwed to the stereo cage (not done by me) but when i try to put it all back together the rear fogs now dont work at all, is it possible to blow a relay??? or have i simply wired something up arse about tit? I really dont want to take the radio out again, bur i must be getting good at it now as i got that funny bit of plastic above the radio to click in place first time!!! And i only lost 1 screw into the abyiss down the side of the seat!!

Is PPS going to visit GPS this week?

Sold the Zed yesterday to the first person who looked at it. It still hasn't sunk in yet. I picked up its replacement (an Audi A4 diesel estate) this morning and was bored in about 5 minutes. The Zed was 13 years old and still had more gadgets and stuff to keep me entertained I might be back with another Zed at some point once I can get some cheaper insurance, hope the new owner enjoys it as much as I did

hello folks, thought only polite to introduce myself, bought my 1st zed sunday - 1991 fairlady 2+2 TT - standard. Think im gonna be bothering all you good folks for hints and tips soon - so sorry in advance!! Took for 1st hard drive lunchtime, then changed pants:D

i have come across a nissan europe r-drive parts catalog on cd, which i am told is the proper dealers parts list but it will not open. does anybody know what type of security there is to open it. cheers.lee.

I'm also got jet black tailpipes which I suppose must be down to her running rich. I know that she is running rich because of a rolling road test after I had the cats gutted recently when they collapsed. I'm pretty sure that they must be knackered becuase they are the originals and she has now done 175,000 miles. Conzult seems to show that with each sensor the voltage often sticks at the same value for quite some time when taken out on the road. So, is it a reasonable DIY job to change the sensors from the top of the engine and can you use non Nissan ones (I never entrirely trust the faqs on twinturbo.net since the engine compartment layout isn't quite the same …

Craig, The time is wrong on these posts mate. Stuart

Can anyone suggest somewhere close-ish to Newbury where i can get me auto TT tuned, fitted 1mm boost jets at the weekend and the car is running sweet but at about 2k RPM there is a noise not sure if it is pinking as its so quiet then completely go's once you give a little more throttle

My tail pipes are black and looking a bit sorry for themselves, was looking at some silver tail pipe trims in Halfords, but they don't do them big enough, only go up to 54mm not the 60mm I need. Tried everwhere, ........ does anyone know where I can get some to fit the Z....?

Hi All, Got most of the parts I need for a conversion now and just wondered about a couple of things... Is there a definative 'how to' on the conversion available anywhere?? I've done the usual searches and come up with very little. Can I use the standard Auto braking components (master cylinder etc) or do I need some more bits from a manual?? I have the manual pedal box. Will I have to get a new/replacement spigot bush? Cheers!! RobH

My car's about due a new set of plugs, and I was wondering about going to a slightly colder plug seeing as it's tuned a bit. Anyone tried running 7 grade plugs (Thinking NGK BPR7EIX-11 Iridium).

Had a slight accident collecting my new car at Dover Docks can anyone recommend anyone? I hear Darren is busy these days??:confused:

Hi all, newbie on the block. I have just today bought my first 300zx... and I haven't stoped grinning since I picked it up !!!! It's a '91 Jap import, 2 seater (not 2+2) manual. The only mods I can determine are a dump valve, and 3 spoke alloys. Body work is in near mint condition, inside a few missing bits and pieces, which leads me to a question: Anybody know the best (and cheapest) place to get replacement switches/buttons for the dash? Also the handle on the drivers seat to move the seat-back forward has snaped off. And finally the fog light bulbs have gone. Can I replace these with the usual lights, or do Jap imports have different spec's? …

Probably a no brainer this one, but it ain't in the handbook... The LIGHTS warning light on the dash, illuminates when the lights are on. They all look ok, except one side light is a bit dim. Is this what the warning is referring too? Didn't know it could monitor light bulbs too!
