General Discussions - 300ZX Related

Hello, Just read the 350Z preview in AutoExpress Magazine!, they loved it and for £18-£23k it seems good value too. Trouble is it is not going to be sold in the UK! Are Nissan mad? This is probably the best coupe they have made for years and they are not going to sell it in the UK. Please can you all take 5 minutes and email Nissan UK and show them that the UK wants Nissan's cool cars not just the boring one's! Go to their website: www.nissan.co.uk and click on contact. They don't give out their email address on their site! Rant: Can you believe it! Nissan stopped selling the 300zx back in '94, (it carried on selling for years in Japa…

A few facts first: 1. I own a 300Zx NA which I am very happy with. 2. I don't wish to start any arguments, I just want to understand better. The 300ZX is a one of a kind car, but one thing niggles me about it. If it is so good, why are there so many of these "Fantastic" cars around which have had new engines only after 80k miles. I've seen quite a few for sale on the board with this ailment. If the cars have been lovingly looked after by the owners, why did they need new engines ? I have seen many comments that the Z engine is good for 150k+ miles. Is it the case that these cars have been heavily modded. Please remember, this is not a dig - I am just tryin…

I was pulling out right from a side road onto the A164 and a BMW was behind me also pulling out the same way, he pulled out with me and was right on my tailgate...so i slammed the anchors on as it was pissing me off...he then went to overtake and i realised what he was upto, so down to 2nd gear down goes the pedal and even though he had moved out to overtake he couldn't gain any ground and was resigned to sitting behind... we reach a round about and coming out from the roundabout we're off again, still he cant make any ground on me, but i cant get away either..well it was pissing with rain, traffic was busy, so i just stayed where i was, he was obviously mad as he overtoo…

Am looking forward to putting the Eagle F1's on my Z. Great looking tyre apparently and do a top job too!! Matty. ------------------

OOer! Had a nasty one this morning. Low speed (35-40ish) coming off a tight roundabout. Just started to put power down - very light, still -ve boost and the damn thing kicked round, scared the guy in the Peugeot in the outside lane half to death. I'm sure there's something wrong here - OK it was wet, nasty, slippy wet but I don't expect any car to do that without putting some power through the back wheels...Put it this way, my Nova used to accelerate faster than that with no probs and sh*t tyres. Any advice appreciated before I go and write it off.... TIA!! RobH PS I'm waiting for tie bar bushes as mine are sh*gged - could that be a factor??

Dont normally drive my zed in the wet and just found out how entertaining they are on wet surfaces!. I pulled out of a petrol station this morning after gasing up and decided to get the beast moving a little quicker along the duel carriageway that I was on, anyway turbo's came on-line and fooking hell - the arse end started swinging from side - side BIG time. I thought I'd almost lost it at one point, some car following a short distance behind me pulled back even more. Oh well I thought it was fun anyway, 'tis a good way to wake up quickly!.

IS THERE A SANTA CLAUS? 1. No known species of reindeer can fly. BUT there are 300,000 species of living organisms yet to be classified, and while most of these are insects and germs, this does not COMPLETELY rule out flying reindeer which only Santa has ever seen. 2. There are 2 billion children (persons under 18) in the world. BUT since Santa doesn't (appear) to handle the Muslim, Hindu, Jewish and Buddhist children, that reduces the workload to 15% of the total378 million according to Population Reference Bureau. At an average (census) rate of 3.5 children per household, that's 91.8 million homes. One presumes there's at least one good child in each. …

Copy of letter from Bill Clinton to FAA: Dear Sirs I've had a lot of time on my hands of late and believe that I may have the solution for the prevention of hijackings. At the same time we just might get the Airline industry back on its feet. Here's my plan: Since Muslim men are not allowed to look at naked women we should replace all of our female flight attendants with strippers. Muslims would not get on the planes for fear of seeing a naked woman. Of course every businessman in this country would start flying again in anticipation of seeing naked women. Hijacking would come to a screeching halt and the airline industry would probab…
