Just some info I thought you guys might be interested in. Noticed on my service history booklet on Tuesday that my car has been re-registered at some point. Reg differs from the at new reg. I also wanted to try and confirm that the car hasn't been clocked. I have some old HPI reports in the history which don't raise alarm but I know how slippery the traders can be at recreating documentation or removing receipts etc. from a cars history. I got in touch with the previous owner but spoke to the guys Dad who to be honest was a miserable fucking Manc!!! Nothing new there then! Sorry if any of you lot are born and raised in Manc Land but my experiences with most…

any of us northerns going to the easter meet in birmingham? im looking at you lot who were at johnnys on sunday.... i can see the convoy now going down the m6, our ace cameraman, andy speilberg hanging out the roof videoing the lot......

Goddamit Just decided to check air filter elements on '90 Z32 and managed to disassemble airbox and remove airflow meter. Removed filter elements and decided it would be a good idea to run the car with just the airflow meter box reattached. Seemed ok, albeit a little rough at tickover, so thought i'd replace the old filters until i obtain a new set (or cone). Fitted filters and reassembled filterbox/airflow meter etc. Now the thing nearly stalls and will only rev to 2500rpm exactly, at which point the engine cuts (almost like a limiter). Ahhhhh. Any ideas as to what i've done wrong/broken...!!!!

Looking to retrim all the trim panels (not seats) in the Z myself (to save a bit of $$$), anyone know any leather wholesalers? Jay

Anyone know where I can get the round white clips that hold the interior panels on from? Taken off the door cards to replace the speaker, breaking half of them in the process Cheers Jay

Hard life driving this around all day eh?

are there any links to do a step by step removal pics of a great help. cheers "T".

Does anyone know if a BlitZ SUS filter off a P reg 200SX will fit onto the MAF of the Z32? Ta Aaron

has anyone got that url for small front number plates please? does anyone know what the filth do if they pull you over for using one? cheers martin

Ideally need UK spec left hand door after bending mine (and several other panels) in a hedge . Spoke to Z Centre and they reckon I need a Series 2 door. Anyone got one? Red is ideal but any colour is fine. I have interior trim, mirror, etc. Cheers, James.

Hi! Just wondering if anyone knows a good supplier and installer for bodykits for the Zed? I live in Aylesbury, which is near to Oxford. I'm after the Stillen GTZ-R front end, Stillen headlamp panel and a fiberglass replacement for the rubber rear spoiler. I need it all prepped, painted, and installed, plus some small repairs done to the existing paintwork. I might even get the whole thing resprayed :-) Thanks in advance! John

Has anyone ordered pre-cut relacement keys from Nissan, using the number stamped on the key? If so are the keys the same as original i.e. with 300zx on them and how much were they. Thanks guyz Tim

Does anyone have a decent set of aftermarket shocks/springs which they are looking to sell? Also, anyone selling any wheels for the Zed (pref. 18's) CheerZ

Just a quick comment please !....... Has anyone fitted 265 tyres on the back and 245s on the front, am thinking of buying something wider this afternoon, I know that standing water will be a little more of a danger but would anyone strong reccommend I stay with the proper 225 / 245 combo ? Cheers

Hi guys, pretty new to ZX 'clubs'... I've had a 300ZX for about 18 months and it's starting to feel a bit 'slow'. Want to upgrade bits but I have no idea who to go to, or what budget to expect, etc. Car is UK stock TT, 93L, 40k miles, targa top, 2+2, 2 door. I'm expecting to look at brakes (already getting quite a bit of fade) and suspension, then engine intake & exhaust, then tuning (obviously not all at once!). Is there anything else I need to think about? Where do I start? Cheers, James.

As I live in Beirut(or south east london on the map) we tend to get loads of dumped motors lying around. Some little b*stards have jumped in a dumped C-reg Ford Fester and coasted it down my road(I live on a long hill) bounced off a couple of cars on the way down before crashing into my neighbours front garden wall missing my sleeping Z by about 4 ft! And all this is after the police were called at about midnight to move a stolen motor that was dumped in the middle of the junction at the bottom of my road! B*STARDS! Note to my insurers: I really live in a rural paradise next to a lovely babbling brook(the Thames)just up the road from the happy little elves(bu…

Im going Santa Pod in the summer. Dont know exactly when. Im taking the Z and my friend (ay3388) is taking his Lancia Delta. It nothing serious, just a laugh. He is gonna see if any of the Lancia Forum are going too. I was wondering if a few of us could go down the same day. Its in the midlands so it should be viable for most people. Stuart

Yes we can! Many thanks to Leigh (again!) who came round tonight and helped me manhandle the last bit of loom into place.. And yes, I know, I can't hold a camera still enough! Sorry about the out of focus pics, and sorry that the exhaust didn't show up on the pics.. But it fired *first time*! Yeeaaassss!! Sorry.. Had to say that
