Hi I am after a Z32 Twin Turbo engine, either standard or modified. Cash waiting for the right engine. If you have an engine for sale, could you please e-mail me the details: goodyerdan@aol.com Many thanks Dan.

Hi, Looking for ideas, want a rear spoiler that will fit the convertible. Don't want a stock twin turbot spoiler, wouldn't mind a Kaminari but would like to see one in the flesh before buying. Quite like the one on the S13 but it would have to be longer obviously, also like those ultra thin ones on the modeo you see around, but again it would have to be wider! So if anyone has any ideas/suggestions fire away! mark

Hi Just tried to clear my front indicators and noticed it had an xtra bulb in there, that i cannot get working. Anyone know what it's for and how I can rig it into the indicators system? Mark

Hi, Just wondered if anybody knows of alternative sources of clear front wing indicators. I know of the clear 300zx copies and have seen the alternatives but they all stand quite proud of the wing. Does anyone know of some that might be more flush? I thought of maybe getting two ford focus clear indicators and glueing them together for each side! Mark

How much for a pair? I want them to fit to my S13. Are the Disks any different to the rears on the S13, apart form having an extra wheel stud hole ?

Its a 1989/G it has 37,000 miles, twin turbo auto, grey , 17in wheels, cloth interior. how much can i expect to get for it?

Does anyone know of a web site that shows the different processers/speeds compared to each other? Thanks Vijay

Hi, Can anyone help me out, I pulled out my dipstick the other night and there was a radiator on the end of it!! Any Pointers would be appreciated, and thanks in Advance!! Mark

anyone here own the grey Z with a skull and crossbones on the back that was in edinburgh the other night and blew away my mate who thought he could beat my Z with his 306 gti-6 if so is it standard? thanks Paul

Red Z spotted on the road between meriden and fillongley today about 5.45pm I flashed my lights but got no response, anyone here???......Probably not.

The nights are comeing quicker, getting darker and lasting longer and I have decided that I want the silver light backing that many people have on here. I know some people say it looks bad some say it looks good, but I am not bothered as long as it makes my dips work better. There are a few roads round here with no street lights and some with only a few, and for some reason Wigan is changing all the lamp posts at the moment and quite a few are out of action and will be for a while. Any way. Enough of the babbling. Has any one done this themselves and done a write up on how to do it. Does the front bumper have to come off? Any help will be greatful. Thanks …

Hi, Can anyone help. I upgraded to AGX shocks and it turns out the old ones are missing a rubber bushing. This stops the shock moving all over the place while driving, currently my car, my only car is un-drivable which I need. Nissan claim this part is on national back order and the wait could be weel over a month. Personally I can't see how the relevent bushing went missing without the old shocks moving in the same way, anyhow I can't put the old ones back now, the garage disposed of them. The part is a bushing (56218-33P00 - $2.46) which is actually only listed for a non-turbo 300. For a TT like mine the part is not available without buying the original s…

Just got blitzed by a Kev in a renault 5 turbo!!! I was doing 20 past parked cars in a narrow street. Heard his dump valve hiss twice, clever hey, i think he was well chuffed

its all gone a bit quiet the last few days, cant reach turbo man as his phones off, i'm going anyway.....see you there

anyone know if the two camshaft sensors on the back of the engine are any different apart from having longer leads. Got mine round the wrong way when putting the engine back together last year.

I have this evening removed the speed convertor on my 1990 jspec non-turbo 300zx. and something has gone wrong. I seem to have shorted something. and now the speedo, rev counter, and dah lights do not work. and also my steering is still heavy is there a fuse that can be replaced to fix all of this if so where is it located or have i done some terrible damage to my baby!! please please please someone help thanks Mick

I've seen a lot recently about high octane fuels (super / optimax / etc). When I had my Z I had it set up on a rolling road and chose to do this on normal unleaded fuel. Using filter / exhaust / decat / 1 bar boost / custom mapping, this gave 432 bhp at the flywheel (based on wheel bhp plus transmission loss on the over-run). Those of you on an SE chip probably have something based on mine. I suspect that a higher quality fuel might have given me 10 or 20 bhp - so what ? My point is that you can get pretty good bhp on normal unleaded. After the tuning, I always ran on super whenever I could to give me a safety margin. This saw me good on a 2 hour stint at 1…

Does anyone have one of those plastic doorlock actuators? (it's a yellow transparent piece of plastic which sits directly behind the lock barrels) it's for the driver's side.

Could u please remove the supposed pictures of 'Banzai'. They r pictures of me as 'banzai'from another website, it's just an unfortunate coincidence that we both have zeds!! (mines a 2+2 i think he's got a 2 seater hasn't he?) I have no connection with the banzai on this site.thanks

Hi, I have a 1990 Japanese Import Non Turbo, I am not sure if it has a Cat on the exhaust? also there are two pipes each side of the engine down into the exhaust, i am only asking as i want a stainless exhaust and dont know if i should get one with a cat or not. Cheers
