Driving back this evening after the meet and i was really rather boggred!!! As i approched my little village in the middle of nowhere something caught my eye that causes me much amusement. You know those signs that warn you of slippry road surfaces, well on the black outline of the car someone had obviously found it funny to write 300ZX in white paint on the back of it!!! Wonder why!?? ROFL!! ZEDSTER

Down at the chester meet today and someone pointed out something very strange!!! Filled his car up with optimax (im really sorry mate i cant remember ur name again!!! even though u did follow me for ages!) and then noticed a stranghe whirring noise in his zed. Turns out that in the centre bar between the targas in between the courtesy light and the reading lights, there is a really small fan!!!! WIERD or what! there are two little slats for it and we all just wanted to know........... What exactly does it do????

Good effort dudes, nice to put all these names to a few faces!!! Cant wait for the vid of me dognut action!!

OK, so heres the story.............. Que harp noise and wavey effect! About this time last week myzed started to leek oil-BIGTIME!!!! At first i thought it maybe tranny fluid (no sexchange jokes please!) but then realised it was engine oil. It was coming from pretty much central of the car towards the front. Popped the car into a local garage who i must say have always been very good and then was informed than my rear main bearing seal was leaking. Ok ok..........hhmmmmmm let me think, gearbox and exhaust off maybe- sigh!!! yes i think so! A tenner for the seal and a couple of hundred quids worth of labour later and much swearing from the poor bugger working on …

Those of you that have fitted carbon fibre/ aluminium/ wood trim dash kits in your Z's - what did you do about the pieces that fit around the elec window switches on either door. I assume you bought a kit from the US and so their LHD versions won't fit the RHD we all got. Or am I missing a trick?? It looks like the rest of the bits are same for LHD and RHD?

Hey all i know this is a common problem on the Z but has anyone figured a way or know of a way to stop the brakes overheating so much without spending the £1000000000 pounds on the bigger discs and calipers? mine has got uprated black diamond discs and uprated pads. i have changed the brake fluid and i think its got dot 5.1 running throught the brake lines. any other suggestions? the only way i thought was maybe to change the front nose cone for one that allows more air through.

Hot or cold sometimes the car stumbles at around 200 rpm when I start it then dies. Touching the pedal has no effect. Can take 4 or 5 attempts before it will rev properly to pull away. I have cleamed the 2 coolant sensors on the front of the engine and the TPS but no joy. The coolant sensor must be ok because when I pull the plug off the engine speeds up and the electric fan kicks in. Paul

I want to have a front facia installed and painted. Also a few small things like repainting the windshield wipers. Additionally I might have the wheels refinished. If anyone has a wings west or similar front facia they would like to sell I am interested. I would prefer a location within an hour of the M25. Please give me some suggestions. I do not want the best paint in the country, I would prefer nice paint for a good price.

Anyone from here?

I have recently acquired a sorry looking 300zx and have limited time to make a decision about what to do with it. I have posted a notice about it on the for sale board but I am also considering bringing it back to it's former glory. The problem is that I am currently working in Australia and can not undertake such a project myself. Does anyone know someone who does this kind of thing so that I could return in a years time to a beautifully restored Z.

I need a dust/water cover that goes on the back of the main beem headlight as my dear old dad ripped my last one in to two parts! curently one and a half month wait for one from japan!!!(arse)

Does anyone have a link so I can find out what cd changers work with what stereos. Paul.

anyone have some small 300zx.co.uk stickers for sale. Only want little ones to go on the side windows.

Some new kind of flux capacitor maybe?
