Aha - and even >eekgasp This is a Big Red Kangaroo and "skippy"'s sig Clearly the same animal. Equally clearly male! Skippy looks like this Skippy and boyfriend Skippy is also a girl t-tt-t-t-ttt-t-t Yes, Skip, we know that Big Reds can only travel at 30mph, will fight other males to claim a mate (no, not a m8, the other sort) and are one of the finest athletes of the animal world. So our skippy is either using the wrong name, sex or species! The first recorded case of a cross-dressing 'roo?

Hi, Took my ZX in for some warranty work to the dealer I got it from, whilst waiting i had a quick look around his showroom. It had a nice looking red ZX TT J spec 1990 for £19500. Wow I thought, so I took a closer look.. 400 - 800 BHP variable boost Massive set of 4 speakers taking over the boot/rear seat space. Body kit, alloys etc, large rear spolier.. The owner of the garage said they had imported it from japan, where it was used to race for 2 seasons. I think he said they had rebuilt/repaired it over 2 years... Supposidly they had to spend thousands doing it up, new uprated turbos etc.. Chap said it would do over 200mph... 0-60 in 5se…

I've secured a limited number of these. They're packaged up and ready for dispatch. http://www.greyeconomy.com/350z.htm

Hi Guys, Just wondered if anyone knows of cheap source for stock air filters and pads for an NA? Have tried to fit some patten air filters, but they are 3mm too thick, the cover won't batten back down and then the centre panel don't fit back on! After some cheap NA front pads won't be on for long as I am gonna skyline the front! Cheers Mark

I need a better idea of the value of my Z for insurance purposes. She's an unmodified 1990 UK spec TT with about 168k miles. According to the guys at SE she's in better condition that a lot of the imported skips with half the miles that they often get to see.

The powder coating on the wiper arms has started coming off making them look crap and the rubber around the windows and some other areas has faded and gone pale grey. Does anyone know where I can get replacements that won't cost a fortune?

Hiya Guys, Am buying a new car and resultantly have to sell my 1991 NA Jap import by the end of September. One owner since importation, It is a metallic black 2+2 manual targa.

Wow, what can I say? What this guy does with this F40 is nothing short of spectacular. Plus how often would you get the chance to see a crashed F40 rebuilt from the ground up? Engine is a beast!

Are You Trailer Trash Trailer Park Test You know you're trailer trash when...... 1. The Halloween pumpkin on your porch has more teeth than your spouse. 2.

Ok..new to the site so be gentle. Following my other posting I'm looking to buy a good example of a 90-94 TT Coupe. Hopefully low'ish miles (40-60K), all paper work, recipts, service etc..basically doing my best to avoid a shed. What sort of price (and I know this is a fairly 'open' question) should I be looking to pay..does £5k ish sound too high / too low? I've seen relativly low milers of this age for £3.5k but that seems..dare I say it cheap. Difficult question I know..but please..I need a 300! ------------------ Rik

help need front seat drivers side leather black mine has got some big splits in it.and it looks crap rest of the seats are fine

hi, If anyone is available and can help out I need to get a load of air out of my clutch system by bleeding it several times. If you have done this yourself before and are local perhaps you can come over or I can come to you for help. Can't trust nissan, can't drive to far to a 300 specalist as the air in the clutch heats up and disengages it. If possible before Friday 6Sept? Thanks for any advice also, Jez.

Anyone out there Know if this recall applied to the Japanese spec 300zx (1990 registered). My local Nissan dealer charged me £300 when mine failed but have since discovered the unit was the subject of a (voluntary?) recall in the US around 94/95. Tried to get a refund through Nissan GB but they claim they know nothing about it as the recall didn't apply in the UK. As the vehicle is a Japanese import, they suggested I try Nissan in Japan. Anyone else experienced this and is it worth pursuing? Cheers

Does anyone have the logo in bmp, tiff, jpeg etc? I've just got the missus a swept up sewing machine which can do just about anything, (when she learns how) and embroidering the logo would be a good learning curve. I can download straight to the machine and the software sorts it out( with a bit of human intervention) That's her toy. I'll stick with the Z for fun and a triumph 900 for commuting. Seems fair(ish) to me!!

Hi All, I've got some poly bushes to install in my tension rods and just want to make sure I have all I need before I proceed. Are they supposed to have a metal bush/sleeve in the centre?? it seems a bit odd that the one's I have are black plastic only - is this correct? I thought there was an article linked on AndyP's site but can only find the adjustable tension rod install. can anyone point me in the right direction please? Cheers, RobH

I live about 15-20 mins south of Silverstone, and the route I go normally means I approach from the opposite direction to most of the other traffic, and get in a lot quicker and easier, unlike the signposted route from the M1 and M40 If anyone is interested in joining me, fancy meeting up in Buckingham? (easily got to from M1 or M40, nice big Tesco's with Jet wash too!!) That's if I get my door and front bumper sorted in time!!

Yep, another newcomer..but never-the-less can you advise me on the following..even though you've probably heard it all before? What are the different specs' of 300 available to a UK buyer for '90 and newer..I confused myself with the 2+2's, TT's and non turbo versions. I've been looking for a Twin turbo, but am unsure about the "names" they have! Any advice will be greatly appreciated guys. Cheers. ------------------ Rik

Hi all Well I got the parts I needed for what I knew needed doing from Andy, now the car is being worked on as we speak. But as I took it down there, i noticed something odd. When I would try thr brakes, they would be rather..hmmm..CRAP, until I pumped them again..... anyone got any idea what this could be so I can let the garage know to look out for it?? Cheers Matt

Mark, very sorry can't find yer details, can you mail me your address and if it was single or double pod to go with rad pipe. cheers smithy
