my son is after buying a VR6 and the seller has £1500 outstanding HP. Seller says he'll use £1500 of the £4k asking price to pay off the HP. Is there any way my son can make sure this happens, or any way he can protect himself from potential problems. ...your knowledge in these (and other) matters much appreciated. thanks Jack

Looks like they are 7.5J's (fronts) and might not have centre's. Two standard alloy wheels for a Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo (1990-1996) being sold as a matching pair only. Wheels are handed so there is one Left and one Right wheel. The 300ZX Twin Turbo was available in several different guises depending on country. Check the following list to see if your model is suitable: UK/Australia (1990-1996): Front only United States (1990-1992): Front or Rear United States (1992-1996): Front only Japanese (1990-1999): Front or Rear Before searching for a pair of replacement alloys for your 300ZX, bear in mind that the original alloys are a left/rig…

What is it with these bloody cars? Mine is officially the Anti-Christ reborn into a Z!!! Damien is his true name and tonight when I get him home I'm gonna get my maglite and search his engine bay for '666' ROFL When I left my works car park to go and get my gold bullion outta Fort Knox in Luton I drive past the garage where he is waiting for me to pick him up! I drive past and notice the bonnet is open, not up but resting on the catch semi-closed. Strange I think? What are they doing messin' with me LuZipher??? Anyway, get fucked about in the bank, raz it back to Stevenage and pop over to pick the Z up. Colin(mechanic) comes in and says "car is OK but you…

Last night I crashed my ZX and it was my fault. Now I need parts to fix it. If you can give me some info where to find the rear section of the car i would really appreciate it. Is there anyone in this forum who is breaking a Z? Can u give me some phonenumbers of places where to look? Parts required. a) Rear spoiler b) Rear pumber c) Middle and Right Rear lights d) All the plastics that covers the lights e) The rear right wing. f) The rear mirror (most preferably the whole thing) It would be much better if I can find a complete rear section rather than parts Any help? Thanks

Strosek even... What are the widest 18" wheels/tyres available to go with the wide arch kit when I've eventually saved up? Need to work out how much the new wheels are going to be... I have 17" wheels at the moment with 255's on the rear and 235's (i think) on the front at the moment but theres just too much wheelspin even in the dry! I am talking LARGE tyres please! Who has the biggest on the forum? Ooh err missus. [This message has been edited by ChrisC (edited 25-01-2002).]

Everyone is buying and selling 300'z left right and centre and here is me still trying to sell mine. I've posted the spec many times, but here goes again 1990 85000 miles Manual UK Spec Twin Turbo T Bar Black Great ICE system New egine and turbo's Good alarm system Good condition throughout. I know I have been asking quite a lot for this but thats only because of the £3500 I paid for engine and turbo's, but as i'm kinda gagging to sell it (should not say that I know) I'm willing to take some offers, or could anyone recomend me a good price to advertise it for Thanks Matt

Hi guys, As you all know by now I've been having some problems with my engine making funny rattling noises. I can best describe the noise as the noise the engine produces in a manual trans car when you're trying to pull away in too high a gear - i.e., your valves start fluttering. The thing is that my engine (A/T) only produces this noise when it has been thoroughly warmed up and only in the top two gears (i.e., 4th and O/D)when accellerating lightly. I was just sitting here thinking (as you do) and thought that perhaps my hydrolic lifters are causing this noise. My problem is that I know nothing about them and would really appreciate someone giving me the lowdo…

Where are you matey ? No response to my email and I need that gearbox soon-ish. Plans are afoot ... CheerZ

This is probably a really daft question but what where the option's on the ZX's, do they all come with cruise control etc, forgive me for asking a simple question but i'm new here.

Has every one seen the www.hotornot.com site? If not where have you been? Basically you see a picture of some one and you give a mark out of 10 for them. Here is the car version http://showyourcar.com/home Click on import and give some marks for the cars. There are a few 300ZX's in there too.

Paul mate... you get the chip I sent ok? ------------------ Glen :)

So anyway.. the lovely Mrs Turbo is taking the Rottie to the vet: In the waiting room are 2 other Rottweilers, looking decidedly nervous... So... there they all are when one of the other Rots says "what you here for" to the second Rot "well" says the doggie "I caught someone trying to break into my masters car and pounced on the blagger tearing out his throat, the robber died and im here to be put to sleep..." "Oh" replies the 2nd Rot "me too, caught someone breaking into my masters house and chewed his leg off..here to be put to sleep too".. The two Rotties look up at Mrs Turbo and then ask Turbo-Rott what he is in for.. "My masters wife was bent over th…

Having spoken to Nico. I know that both the guys are stressing with the work load coming their way from adverse reactions from this forum. As a result of this they may give this forum a wide birth in the future. Now this is purely from a Z owner standpoint as I have known Nick probably as long as I have owned a Z. I know we would all agree this forum without doubt has been a well managed, constructive, funny and frustrating platform for all of us who wish too air our frustrations, experiences, jokes and sorrows. Long may it live. Right How about we all post our top Porn sights lol.

Sitting comfortably! Then i'll begin. Last year we went to Edinburgh to see 'rellies', i planned a shopping trip to GPS' on the way home , sweet shop syndrome. Long we end was pukka, fishin', many beers, & top hospitality. Even rang Andyduff on the way up to try & meet, but timing was wrong. Time to head home was shopping time, cash in pocket adrenalin pumpin' ok Penninington here we come. But after a very confused conversation with a garage owner just outside Barrow-In-Ferness HERE He said are you loking for the Grasshopper bloke, "yes mate".....he said he was in Leeds somwhere. wtf. He gets so many people looking for you Johnny-you wouldn'…
