Was it moving? Nearest to actual speed wins the red Z. It's being given away after seeing loads of better ones at the show [This message has been edited by ChrisC (edited 30-07-2002).]

'written off my zed' is officially top banana! Called him asked for a PTU and a coilpack, cant ask for the wrong thing! Great price too then, it turns out he is coming up my way on wednesday to go to a funeral (sorry about the funeral, hope ur not too gloomy when we see you), anyway hes gonna bring the parts with him. Saving us a trip down to somerset. GREAT!! So fingers crossed we will put the parts on the motor and it will be firing on all cylinders and working better than ever!

Just to put the rumour to bed. I've spoken to Paul today, and there is no way he has sold out. What he has done is sold the Jaguar kit and a few odds and sods of Z bits. I can pass on a message from Paul that buisness is as usual and that all enquiries still go to him at http://www.paulbailey.com/ PETER

Not quite done yet, but keep your eyes on http://www.asylum101.com/300zx/default.htm I wandered around billing with my new toy (JVC DV Cam) and will be putting a proper Windows Media streaming video of Billing + a really gorgeous shot of a load of us in convoy at the roundabout just arriving. Coming back on the A508 I followed a very nice dark grey ZX, bigger spoiler, nice single exhaust, rather than the 4 tailpipes... if that was your car and you remember a stock silver H plate behind you (sometimes in front), I have a lovely bit of video of you on the road (worth watching just for that fabulous exhaust note when you wellied it!!!). I'll post again when v…

Me again, (sigh) Just purchased a set of new koni shocks and blitz springs for my zed as my shocks have had it. just wondered what you dudes out there who have konis set yours on and what sort of difference it makes on different levels (if at all noticeable!). Cheers fellaz! LUKE DUKESTER ------------------

Hey dudes, Just wondered what you all thought about under body neon lights (fast and furious stylee). Do u recon it looks really tacky due to loads of dickheads in shitty novas and stuff doing it or do u think it would look pretty darn groovy on a 300zx? Ah hem.........not that i would have it done of course...................LOL! Cheers LUKE DUKESTER ------------------

So, I take my Zed to get an alarm fitted. Local Nissan dealer had good deal on and insurance company wanted a cert. This was last Wednesday !! Have I seen it since ? No ! Just as well last weekend was a washout, I mean it's not as if I missed the best weekend of the year for taking a drive.. Life Sucks.... Humbug. Just thought I'd share that with you.

From the Aus forum :- "I don't know if anyone is aware, but a lot of intermittant coolant leaks are caused by ethylene glycol, the ingredient used in anti freeze, anti boil coolant. What happens is, rubber hoses shrink, over time, and because ethylene glycol has a molecular size about half that of water, it finds its way out through a slightly loose hose, and murphys law says its the hardest hose to see, and to get to, and depletes the cooling system, of up to the concentration of the glycol, normally 30%. This then, can cause the car to overheat, and loose more fluid. The upshot is, when the radiator is then refilled with plain water, it doesnt leak, becaus…

Red Z with plate J12 BRU. It wasnt me, so who is this other Bruce guy with a zed? I have a black Z with WTF in the plate in London.

hiya people, i'll just echo everyone elses sentiments, top weekend. sorry i couldnt stay around longer on the sunday to meet some of you, but i needed to get back home.. getting married this week and have loads to do cheers to the guys i was drinking with saturday night, made a nice chilled stag do.. no hassles only thing that spoiled it for me was the ignorant git that revved their car up on my leg and ruined my jeans for me, nice way to lose 50 quid they were too busy showing off and giving it the large to their mates to be genuinely apologetic about it i'm sure if i had accidently spilt beer on their car or into the interior they woul…

What's your e-mail address?

Leaking coolent from the left hand side of the engine, as a your looking at the engine its coming from I think the side of the radiator. I had the RAC come and try and find were it was coming from, as I had lost a lot of coolent he filled it back up with water and some stuff called Bars seal, its stopped the leak, is this stuff OK in the radiator? though feels like there is a loss of power. Does anyone have an idea what if any could of caused this to happen? coolent level was good, and around 6 months ago had a flush. Also is this a big job to find out what has happened any suggestions much appreciated cheers rob

does anyone know the the part number for a manual starter motor and is it different to that of an auto. aki
