Are they reliable?

I need a set of brake disks for my 1990 N/A Jspec. Nissan have quotted me £80 each plus VAT. I have tried the disks that brembo have listed for all Z32s but their slightly different disk, although only £40 each. After doing a little research, I have found that there is a different disk on this particular year of N/A. does anybody know where I can get a pair cheapish.

where do they go exactly?

The plastic has worn off of my platsic coated trim that runs up the side of the windscreen and over the targa roof. does anyone know where i can get cheap replacements or get these re-coated. Help would be appreciated Mick

Guys I was involved in a car accident this Saturday and the Zed is no more :( some twat pulled out in front of me, and now the zed looks like a squashed kebab! So by the time I see any insurance money and by the time I find another zed, I might as well sell the bigger intercoolers I bought for them, they have never been fitted or used so are spanking new, they cost £500 I'm willing to let them go for £440 no offers, as you know bigger intercoolers for the zed start off at £600 and upwards. Buyer collects. email me if you are interested at mark.salem@landg.com Also when I get the wreck back I will have a leather interior and ECU to sell.

I posted a few weeks ago about my Dump Valves no longer making any noise (and not dumping)... I started thinking about when it stopped and realised that i'd used Ordinary Unleaded (95 ron) when i 1st got the car and Super UL (97 ron) ever since..... It was about this time i started noticing the valves not working.. SO - on Sunday i used 95 ron again and 100 yards out of the garage............ Bitsshhhhhh!!! They work!?!?!? How odd... Ive a TT 2+2 Jap, i thought it would need at leat 97 ron (maybe 100) as it was an import?!??!? Help anyone? ps. what the HP supposed to be on a 300?

Anyone know where I can get some alloys at a good price, pref over the net? Also, what's the widest wheel/tyre you can get on the front and rear without mods to bodywork and what are the offsets? Cheers, Carl

Can you beieve it !!!! 350z

Ok, with soooooo many of you into I.T. I wonder if someone would shed some light on this:- When I am on the 'net and click on a link, say for instance to jump forums, and bugger all happens for ages who's fault is that? Is it the server the forum is located on, or is it my poxy ISP (btinternet) It's so frustrating just sitting there waiting for the screen to change, or for some flicker of light on those two little PC symbols by the clock! Just curious...... Cheers Neil

Ok Ok Ok I know I'm being slow tonight but it took me three readings before I got the Lanlord joke d'oh :) Do you have any idea, Hairsy how frustrating it is to keep to the one post rule in your thread? lol So I had to start this one just to get this reply in hahahaha (PS just watching the end of T2 on the box - still cool. Well, in the molten metal, really but u know what I mean)

I have read what you have said about costs....new server etc etc. When this site was originally envisaged...none of this was taken into account..you wanted a 300zx community...now this has developed...we now need to subscribe...etc...please note I have every respect for what you have done......but like the rest of the internet/e-mail community...a good original idea has resulted in ..if i could just....if had a bit of money....if....if...if... etc.....and this has now killed of your original intentions.......the old system worked fine....slow yes...pain yes.....gash post.....yes....but what heve we gained by "development"...please let me know if I am missing anything....o…

Someone kindly gave me them when I needed to raise the Zed, never used them. Free to anyone who wants them. Email me glenlewis@newyorkcity.com and ill get em in the mail. Or they are going in the trash:)

tis on in a mo...

The lights on the electric windows buttons and on the /\ and \/ on the AC controler are they meant to be lit up? I know the window is but only the /\ of the drivers button is lit up. How can I get them lit up again? Is there a bulb inside the window and AC console? Stuart

How about a poll to find out who has Dump/BOV's and whether they are pleased with them,and who has stock Recirc valves and doesnt get the 'Goosehonk'noise? Cheers, F.T.

Anybody ever used aerosol touch up paint on a red zed. I did and while I got a good finish I can see the colour is not a perfect match. Is it crap touch up paint from Halfords or has me car faded? The original finish on my car looks superb and nice and bright in the sunshine. Under streetlights the front bumper can a look slightly different shade and of course my small repair. Any pigment guru's out there?

Will a set of 19's running 245/35's with a 35 mm drop work?????

Mike at MJP has made me up a set of springs for my Z. I haven't received them yet but since higher limit on credit card am now going for a complete set of shocks and springs, so this set is for sale, I've gone for 35mm drop and 20% uprated. Nearly forgot, £75. If you want them I'm sure I could get MJP to send them direct to you.

Hello all ! I've a 95 300ZX NA - US Model that I've brought back to France. Last week, I broke the alternator and NISSAN Europe say that they don't have this reference available. Can someone tell me : 1) if this part (300ZX NA) is the same as on the 300ZX TT (French) ? 2) where i can order the correct part if different (UK, US, etc...) ? Thanks a lot. Patrick patrick.grellier@verlina.com PS: it cannot be rebuilt !

Mark from L&G - I've forgotten your surname and need some desktop support without going through the proper channels. Can you call me on my mobile please ?!? Number is on Outlook directory. Cheers !

After a very very very long search for a good zed at a good price I've finally come across one...BUT, it's in graphite grey! I've seen a picture of this car (and other standard graphite zeds) and it looks like an extremely boring and dull colour. Does anyone out there have a graphite grey zed who can prove to me just how good this colour can look? Ideally I would love a black zed... even more ideally, I would love Andy D's black zed. But, good black zed's are hard to come by (in fact, any good zed is hard to come by at the price I want to spend!) And, I can't afford Andy D's zed.

Okay, I've been reccomended this company, it's probably okay. But I wanted to see if anyone else had been there. I've had enough of getting my car back with bits hanging off, bits not tightened up correctly, bad jobs, dents from ramps or being charged more than quoted... etc etc...

:)
