EBC vented discs (front) not drilled or grooved+green stuff pads(new v4 formula) @ £165inc vat +post and pack possibly even cheaper if say 5 or more people wanted them near half the price of nissan brakes and better brakes at that!!! have them fitted myself and can vouch for efficency!! and not making on that!!!!!!!!!!! maybe it should be HONEST NEIL! ----neil---- P.S they are brand new in boxes and everyfing!

Checked ecu,nothing wrong,in the sensors! cleaned throttle bodies, reset the butterflies as per manual, still when start from cold revs it's nuts off,for fisrt 20-30 seconds then drops to about 1600-1700rpm,then slowly drops to a pretty stable 700-800rpm when warm!!!!! P.S. when i first got the car about 6-8months ago the engine idled at 800rpm then occasionally shoots up to about 1300-1400rpm it seemed to do this if you was driving steady!!!race it a bit in gears and it would settle again to normal tickover!!! but it doesn't do that anymore and i never touch anything!!!!!!!!!!!!! anybody any ideas running out of them myself!!! ----cheers--- --neil-- …

I have heard that the wrong antifreeze can be bad for your heater matrix. Can anyone reccomend a good easily available antifreeze, or should I go to Nissan? Thanks

anyone know what to use to get patches of bald suede back to its rightful condition? cheers Steve i have seen fine wire brushes before which are supposed to be good

(seriously)..How many more cheques do you guys reckon you need before we can consider the idea of starting a 300zx club? cheers Steve

Jay, tried ringing you at home and on mobile today, give us a ring on me mobile 07789 412 290 cheerz Steve

In light of what has happened to K4$H with his car getting nicked think carefully about posting pics of your cars without blanking your plates out! When the thread "Where is everybody from?" springs up from time to time try and be a tad vague instead of giving which village or town you live in. Maybe now some people can understand why AndyP didn't want his car photographed at the Dyno day a while back. ...and reading that thread that Nico put up about the stolen RX-7, just goes to show you can't trust any fucker really! ------------------

BIG SIGH OF FUCKIN RELIEF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They nicked it and left it 7 miles from maldon. They took around 10k worth of ice though but im just glad i've got the car back!!. Never really had much faith in the ol' bill but i guess that'll change now. Thanx for all tyhe help guys. I really do appreciate it from the bottom of my heart!!.. Chears once again guyz.

Gutted, just got car back after 7 weeks off the road waiting for clutch, all fitted to now find third gear is bollocked. When changing from second to third it crunches and wont go in, if I wait a second or two it goes in without too much effort. So what are my options guys, rebuild on the gearbox, second hand one? Thoughts please Besides this its great to be back ------------------

Induction kits…. I’m thinking about buying an Induction kit, there seem to be a few options. I was thinking about a Blitz, as most people seem to rate them, but I have also seen a twin cone one from Cybercraft (as advertised on the Z Centre website). I’m looking for an easy-to-fit kit that provides the most HP gains with the least maintenance. Has anyone fitted either of these kit’s and are happy / unhappy with the results ? Or can anyone recommend another kit ? Thankz in advance Herman

This is sent to try and sort out the recent arguments/insults etc. In my opinion, this site exists for 4 primary reasons - as an information source, as a means of meeting up with other enthusiasts, as a means of buying and selling, and a place for having a bit of a laugh. Just as it can be enjoyable talking with others on here, it can also be annoying/frustrating. Just because there is a lot of humour and banter between people does not excuse offensive comments. It is easy for someone to say something offensive about someone, and then when the other person is angry/upset, claim you were only joking and they don't have a sense of humour. My "threats" were m…

I know im not the most popular person on this forum, but any help towards the recovery of my car would be most appreciated. It was stolen from silvia last night at aroung 1am. Did anyone see it around maldon?. Pics of my z can be found in my rides section. Its the heavily modified green one. Thanks

Is this the 300ZX replacement? If so, I thought it would've been more of a beast. It has less BHP, no turbo option and a slower 0-60 time. Looks gorgeous though... Peter

WHAT DO YOU THINK?? Leigh

Here you go folks, some pics from that lovely wet day... [This message has been edited by rock_star (edited 10-07-2002).]

Just a thought, chaps (I know you've been having a hard time recently - toys out of pram is one thing but recently it has got - well, you know). Set up a Playpit forum. Move any thread which gets nuclear into the Playpit Only people who have paid an extra £20 and signed up to the Playpit have access to it. If you need to buy extra software to upgrade the forum in order to do this then I for one will fork out for it a) to keep the good bits of the forum available (it's worth a lot to me in good advice) and b)to get the f***wits off my back and out of my bandwidth. Ommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ------------------

Its Greg Duprees, he is the daddy of zed tuning in the US. http://www.opentracking.com/240ZvsZ06.mpg And consider for a moment that a Z06 chassis is far better than an old 240 z in design ect. ------------------ While my TURBO'S are Spooling V8'S are Drooling

What's been going on here? Haven't been on the forum for a while but just browsing through the posts today I can see a lot of rattles out of prams. This used to be such a nice place to visit... the trees were green, I'm sure the skies were bluer and days seemed longer...

Hi, is there a way of deleting suspect mail without it opening?

WELL,,,, i'm new on ere,so only a meer grunt!!!!!! so you can turn off now and i won't be offended, But in the light of recent events(i.e keyboards at dawn,shit)I feel that for some reason i have to explain myself!!!!!! i've posted stupid shit(like many others have)because at the time i thought it was funny or interesting.!! then to come back to it later and get slagged for it!! well fairinough,if thats your view fine, like i've been busted for speeding more times than i dare admit(banned etc) Does that make me a lesser person than you???? but i've never been caught speeding around built up area's.(because in my eyes that's fucking dangerous)!!! It'…
