As suspected, my autobox is starting to go tits-up. It's not up-shifting when it should. Anyone know the best route to get a replacement? "Factory" reconditioned from Nissan? Is it a DIY job? Ta. JC

Someone bought me this for Xmas. Z is 93rd, quote is "Brilliant drivers car, squidgy suspension" Skylark is about 8th Z got beaten by RX7,mini, Transit? (I thought that was a van but obviously Clarkson knows best)??? Anyway the one he showed was a red one so that must mean that any other colour is outside the top 100!

what is involved with the different stages of tuning, ie stage1, stage2 etc. i am looking at buying a zx with a stage two tune. does this include ecu upgrade and what boost does it run? also how safe is this for engine and gear box?

I read this story in todays Orlando Sentinel. Here are some highlights: "Troopers stopped about 350 cars over the weekend and arrested 172 people in a drag-racing dragnet." "The weekend operation by the Florida Highway Patrol in west Miami-Dade County was the largest sting of its kind in South Florida and an attempt to fight the mushrooming and sometimes deadly drag-racing scene." "About 100 people got away, scattering north on dirt roads through horse farms that lead to major roadways, FHP spokesman Ernesto Duarte said." "The FHP blocked off about a one-mile stretch of Okeechobee Road in both directions two miles south of Krome Avenue." 5 …

Hi i looking to buy a ZX in the new year and was wondering if i can get any pointers on which models to avoid and which ones have the leather and all the trimings etc, ive read the links and there seems to be a lot that can go wrong with these things where would be the best place to go and get a zx checked out. well thanks for any help you can give me. Merry christmas to you all

It is 300z Fighting his own holySE/Smithy/Tinky Dinky war. You are going to run out of space soon ROLF ------------------

just watched the Zed go up the road and there was plumes of black smoke coming from both zorsts! This means totally fubar turbos right?

ne1 got a spare turbo timer laying about . My dad never leaves any time for the turbos to cool even after i give him a lecture about it. oh preferably a Blitz full auto would be nice

Its either that or the Zed is getting slower. Just doesnt seem to be as quick as it used to be. Maybe its just there being not a lot of traction on these roads (even dry) compared to the nice summer roads. Dont get me wrong is still seems quick but not as quick if you get me.
