My Z is pretty ok at the moment. However, there are a couple of niggly things that are needed just to make everything just so. If anyone has any of these things, I would be greatful if you could mail me about them rather than post on here as I am not able to check the forum at work, however mail does work. My email address is cos.theo@mailcity.com. I will list the things I need in bullet form. * A fog light holder, lense and trailing cables from a uk rear bumper. * O/S targa swingy jobby that sits in the front ridge between the front roof piece and inner rubber. Its the bit that kinda swings down when the targa closes on it. Thanky'all.

After having my zed badge nicked i've decided to replace the panel instead of replacing the badge, I just want to know what variations r available ie the number of slats and whether they r horizontal, vertical or diagonal. IIII Thangyoooo

Can anyone tell me what performance air filters are best suited to the zed?. I have the following in mind at the moment:- 1)Blitz 2)HK 3)Apexi 4)K&N Money is not the issue, so I need to know from experience etc. what gives best performance, reliability, ease of fitting etc. before I invest in one. Cheers

Hi guys, My new O2 sensor has finally arrived from Courtesy and I'm now stumped as to how to get to the damn thing. I reckon you either need go-go-Gadget-arms or seriously double jointed, skinless knuckles hands/arms Has anyone changed these things before without the use of the special tool that is sold separately? If so, how did you do it? And if you used the tool, where can I get it (other than Courtesy) or would anyone be so kind to lend it to me for a couple of days? Many thanks for your input. Cheers, Danny

Anyone know where I can get a set of the little bulbs for the side repeaters. I want ones that are like the Phillips Silver Fusion ones you can get for the front and rear clear units. Any ideas? ------------------ Z first and anything else is secondary! John Newcomb (NukeEm) www.geocities.com/jn300zxtt

Does ne1 know where I can get a pair of solid alloy wheel spacers made up. Wait for it.....about 5 inches thick! I currently have steel ones and they kinda weigh more than the car. Cheers Andy

What do you think went through the guys head when this happened??

Thought you all may be interested to know the outcome of my antics yesterday when i had a good old blast with a V reg Corvette C5....Hey stupid don't even bother,you may have 5.5litres under ya bonnet but i have Jap turbo power. At the set of lights on the A10 in Enfield he pulled up next to me revving his engine and looking over at me he said,and i quote "so what the hell is that thing?" to which i replied "It's about to kick your ass!!!" so you can guess what happened next....yep you got it we went for it big time and when i got up to about 90mph he was about 10 car lengths back and just a red blip in my rear view!!!!

Got an email from Trevor Tan from http://www.visualdynamics.ca , he's the guy that supplied the previous tt.net group buys with the Philips Z32 HID headlight Kits. Heres some of what he said: If this group buy goes ahead next month and 20+ people go for it it would be approx £272 which seems to me like a good price and a reason to start saving. So what would be the interest from UK/Europe Z owners? Bearing in mind that we would have to pay VAT and duty etc(unless anyone has a way around it?). Have a look at his site http://www.visualdynamics.ca for comparison pictures to see the difference this kit makes and search on tt.net for how many people…

i saw the thread about this and would like a recommendation on the best combination for my Z. Ap racing paddle clutch and SE Nissan close link gear thingy seem to be most popular. any other ideas and how much would it cost to get the two? and whats happened to the se-nissan website?

Just wanted to say if anyone needs an mechanic who knows(and drives) a 300zx, then let me know. He's just helped me out sorting out my brakes and while chatting to him, it turns out he worked for Nissan for 15 years and has done all the Nissan training on 300's. He's worked on them since they were first out. Vijay

hi guyz what tyre profile will I need to keep things true would '40 be OK for rears and '45 for the fronts or shall I go to '35 and '40 respectively. Also can I fit say a '265 to an 8"J rim?? cheerzz anyone.....

Please ignore the other advert for the wheels I have for sale. The photo didn't come out. Anyway, £180 I'm after. 16 inch. Same size as Nissans standard wheels. Photo below (I hope !!)

Just got a set of 16 inch aftermarket alloys (exactly the same size as standard Nissan alloys) Tyres included (although they're not very good at all). £180 is the asking price. Photo shown below .......................

just wondering... and i notice jeff has these on his website, which car are they for? as the jap and uk models have different parts, for example the shocks are different on uk and jap cars. or does the catalogue cover all models? thanks in advance

anyone know why on the links segment silvia engineering under contacts isnt working . it comes up with a loads of c***.or can someone tell me their web address

Bearing in mind one of you guys is in there next month, I'd have a word in their shell like. In the top 100 cars bit they list the 300ZX TT as 0-60 in 7.1 secs and a top speed of a measly 148MPH! HHHHHHMmmmmm.
