Nice ... are these available in the UK ? You are bidding on a 300ZX Turbo spoiler. The spoiler is brand new still in the box. It is a replica of the factory style 1994 300ZX Turbo spoiler. It comes with a LED brake light and is primed and ready for painting. If you want it factory color matched just add $125. If you have any questions or comments please call us at 780-440-6017 or e-mail us at aerocarparts@home.com Looks like it's gonna start around $280 CDN, so that must be something like £120, plus shipping etc etc ....

Pretty quiet today, guess many of you are still off work ! Anyway, for the tweakers, tuners, fiddlers and the just plain curious there are some online/downloadable applications for working out turbo sizes, efficencies etc. Here is one from the warmer side of our planet right now :- http://www.turbofast.com.au/turbomap.html

Hiya I read on here that you lost a wing mirror recently, is this correct? If so is yours a Jap spec and where did you get a replacement and the dreaded how much? Cheers mate Martin

Hi Everyone, Got a bit of a problem with my Z... the front drivers-side brake caliper has seized up. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement? My car is a 91 UK Spec, they look like they are made of aluminium (IIRC there were 2 different versions of calipers in 91?) Also, is there a technique to getting the brake hoses off the caliper? They are on well tight! I really want to get this fixed - I miss driving! Cheers!

I found this site thanks to one of your members on twinturbo.net. I look forward to reading and seeing some pics from the UK meets. later ------------------ VP ECZA Southern Chapter AIM: J300z28

Will be fitting when i get round to fitting the polybushes and bilstein shockers These babys are used to stop NASCARS so they should stop the Z Paul.

So who has got a thick head today LMAO!. ------------------

I've now sold loads of parts I was trying to sell from my dismantled 300Zx twinturbo. I still have a lot of useful parts left that I'm sure people will ask for over the next couple of months. I also have loads of stuff that people probably won't ask for. If you've got somewhere to store loads of parts, then read on. I'm willing to sell all the bits that I don't think will sell quickly for a combined price of £30. Yep, 30!! For a full list of these bits see the for sale/wanted section. I live 15 mins from M25 (Dartford Tunnel area) and all the stuff will fit easily in an average car. Only rule is you have to take the whole lot (to free up space in my garage)…

Hi, Whilst driving my brakes began to fail, until almost completly gone. The pedal just drops to the floor. Brake pipes are fine, was told that it could be the master cylinder, what do you think?

Wishing you all best of luck in the NEW YEAR. 2002 HERE WE COME!!! ------------------

Have a look at this: The pieces are made from bits of EL board with the markings stuck on the front. You should be able to to the same with the larger dials. They have also cut holes in the plastic side kick plates and stuck some EL board behind those: The power is taken from the interior lights. Anyone know where and how much you can pick this stuff up for? Trev

Have a Great New Year, I'm off to smash heads (sorry escort young gentlemen from the club) for being naughty! Have a drink for me and behave yourselves!!!! Roy

Happy new year all, Just a quick question about my ambient temp gauge. There is about 2" of snow on the ground right now and my parents came to visit me in their Cougar. Their amb temp gauge reads -1 right now, I double checked it against mine in the Z and it read +7???? WTF Are these gauges really that inaccurate, or is it just mine? I thought it was reading wrong for ages but that's proof! Are these gauges needed for anything else i.e. engine management? Many thanks in advance. Robert

Hi All Im looking to upgrade my suspenion in early 2002 and was wondering what the reaction was of the peeps who got the Koni's recently?? Also, what springs have u guys used? CheerZ

Now its snowy Traction Control is a must. It doesnt make you grip loads but it keeps your wheels at a managable speed. Example, pulling off. With the TC on I still skid but I can just keep the power at roughly the same place and the TC doesnt allow the Revs move any higher untill it starts to grip. Then no matter how much power you try to put on it wont allow it. I turned it off and tired to pull off, straight away the wheels started to spin, but as soon as they did the revs shot up to about 4000 because of the slip and thus making the wheels spin even more. I let off and tried to ease some power in. In no time at all the wheels spun. Forgetting that I had it on in a …

Moving out of UK, so having put the originals back I now have a spare set of UK spec headlights for 300ZX. If interested, drop me an email petri.karjalainen@pp.inet.fi

If you also have multi speed turbo timer and you have some 1/4 post the best so far.
