OK, so I only got round to it when I'm selling the car but at least it happened eventually. Those of you who REALLY want a V8 exhaust note, check out http://www.300zx.co.uk/rides/hairsy/ Dave

Just to piss some people off! Rang today, 2 rings later he answers, gives a great price on Blitz zorts and induction. Rings me back 2 minutes later and hey presto both will be with me tommorrow! Oh and Iain, Johnny said your Z's too slow mate!

Yep - it's another "Was it you" thread. I've seen a metallic blue Zed parked up in Frimley Green (Surrey) on a couple of occasions. Looks like a UK car (I only saw it from a distance). So, anyone wanna own up? Maybe your blue Zed and my blue Zed could become friends....

Hi, Is the 300 ZX TT a car that you can use everyday, my intention is to get a 300zx TT but it would have to be my daily workhorse, does anybody else use theirs daily? or am I setting myself up for a bit of trouble? Matt

im being mithered by a m8 a work for info on all the diffrent types etc i know plenty of bods have looked into these do any of know good sites to look at and also does bob have a website

Does anyone have the two metal brackets that the stereo bolts to, which then bolt to the dash behind the centre console? Mind went walkabout with the radio when it was stolen.. Also, does anyone have the cubbyhole? Or the Nissan blanking plate? For the lower slot.. Money waiting

ok guys, you have probably herd this a thousand times before but where is the best place to get the cam-belt kit from? do you realy need all the parts quoted by courtesy(texas USA)? is there any places closer to home?(because import+shiping costs!) cherz kris

Right my fellow speed demons, Boost controllers? I know this is like asking how long a piece of string is but I'm hoping to get some responses from guys or gals who actually have these or have used these in the past. Greddy Profec A boost controller looks and sounds the absolute bollox to be honest but then so does the new Blitz ID controller? I would love to hear some input from anyone to be honest, whether they be Soup drivers, Scooby, 200 boys or whoever.

Just thought I would let you Southerners know about the place that did my Auto rebuild. AGS(Auto Gearbox Specialists) based in Watford on 01923 249179 and ask for Andy or Dave. My Auto was slipping badly before Crimbo so I took it to a guy over the road from work who wouldn't touch it! Suggested these guys who came and picked my car up from Stevenage, I was quoted 1K and that it would be ready in a few weeks. Well bugger me sideways! Two weeks later I get a call "Tim, your Nissan is done!" which shocked me! Not used to being told that something on a car will take X time and then have that become reallity. Not only that but what they quoted me is wh…

Anyone here have any idea of how to fit one of these? Cheers Jay

Well - through the bulkhead at least... Many thanks to Leigh for his hours of help last night in the rain.. In the end we had to take the glovebox out, unbolt the a/c unit behind it, unbolt the blower motor, and crowbar the lot forward to get the clearance to get the loom through.. The biggest problem ended up being the white connector that branches off the loom just before the ECU connector.. [This message has been edited by aaronjb (edited 24-01-2002).]

Hi Guys, My 300TT has been off the road for 6/7 months.I took it for an MOT the other day It failed the emmision test.When its cold no smoke from the exhaust.When it warms up both sides start smoking.It was fine before I laid it up and the only thing I have done since is fit a mongoose exhaust. Help!!

Hi Smurf During my daily evening hike home across southsea common yesterday I saw a grey Zed (reg XAM ****)cruising along from the seafront. Was that you M8. If so it looked the biz!!!. Must admit if I had not gone for a red Zed grey would probably have been my next choice.Very classy looking. Are you still pleased with the Zed??. I know after nearly three years of ownership my enthusiasm for the car hasn't gone!!! Is it parked around that area, I will have to have a closer look one evening. Seez ya Simon H [This message has been edited by simon h (edited 24-01-2002).]

Anyone know of a Celica forum similar to this one? My brother wrote his off in an accident last Friday and we're hoping to buy it off the insurance company and do it back up for him. Need loads of parts, though. Which is why I thought it may be cheaper going through a Forum such as this for Celicas, instead of Toyota. Cheers Anita.

I have a 'standard' '90 J'spec, TT. 60K service coming up, I've got all the bits but I'd like to replace the plugs too. I've seen/read a lot about different temp and reach of plug. Can I please have some recommendations and prices. Ta guyz Tim

Craig, Nico: Can a field not be added to the profile screen for each user? Perhaps lose the ICQ field, and rename it to 'MSN name'? Just a thought ------------------ Simon

Oh Flip I am recieving returned e-mails constantly now that I am not sending. It says that the server is returning them for anti virus protection and that I am trying to send executable files. It looks like I am trying to send everyone in my address book an attatchment which I am not. Another strange thing is that the body of the message that I am supposed to have sent contains a few lines randomly taken from some college work I have been typing up . WTF is going on
