I think i must be the youngest zed owner here!!!! Not that im saying youre all old bastards or anything but how old is you lot???

Folks, who has driven a Skyline GTR33 Vspec and compared it to their Zed?? I would be most interested in opinions on this... I've been lurking over at gtr.co.uk and frankly cant make head nor tail of any of it LOL... Seems a common complaint on the GTR is tram-lining and insurance!! ive been quoted £1500 to insure a GTR R33 fully-comp with zero NCD, same as the Zed and am trying to talk meself out of buying one! Anyways .. keep it sideways.. ------------------ Glen :)

Folks, It is my theory 'average condition' Zeds are falling rapidly in price and getting affordable to the plebs as Supra mk3's did a few years ago (no dissrespect Tim )...it therefore follows that more and more of these cars are falling into un-appreciating hands and ending up fooked.. Obviously these prices have a knock-on effect on the prices sought by owners of decent cars who are selling (along with the import situation).. but I reckon that as more and more Z32's get wasted the price of well-looked after examples will actually rise as the bad ones die and end up scrapped (they are getting on abit now!) - there will be a point that the resale value will go so low tha…

Anyone know the best way to get the zeds engine nice and sparkly again??? I would have guessed steaming it would be god darn crazy but wondered if anyone had any ideas!??

Just to let u all know that i almost decapitated myself tonight with my bootlid!!! Whilst pissing about with my autochanger it silently crept up on me and THUD!!!!- Make contact with the back of my head!!!! Its my own fault cos i had the parcel shelf on and it never stays up when thats attached!!!! Anyone else have this problem??? Or am i just a pleeb????

Any ideas peeps??? Rather confused, Van

There's a scratch (fairly deep looking, about 4" long) on the new side window that I had to put in.. does anyone have any suggestions for polishing it out? Ta

Sorry for using the 300ZX forum like my local dixons help desk but if any techys out there can help me I'd be muchos grateful. Got home to find that the BT man had been and gone and left me the BT Highway thingy. Those tight ar**S at BT didn't even leave me a manual. Well I found the on-line one which may as well have been In Japanese. Now the thing is.. I've connected, you read this huh... good. But I did have a bit of bother, so much for plug and play that was lapelled on my CD Rom that came with it. I eventually got it working by making a New Internet connection and putting my freeserve dial up info , ie dial up number. and username and passwor…

Right now I know a few people already have these and are more than happy with the quality of them etc. So here's the deal, I can get you any of these quality handbags, with Z logo embossed, ready for the meet on the 22nd in Brum...eh? What a deal or what hey? What did I tell yer? Quality! Not even our very own Smithy could produce such a high standard!!! Newport Style... Come on who wants one then? Just let me know asap what colours, style e.g. croc or snake or smooth finish etc. These are top quality, not to be confused with cheap replica bags and these bags can really pack a clout! LOL So come on, any of these bags w…

I would just like to say a big respect to AndyP for repairing my clock. Since I have had my car for 2 years and never had a clock I now finally have one I can see in the dark. This has got to be the best £10 I have spent on this bloomin car. Cheers mate. Paul.

my engine... That got you all gong, you thought I was gonna post something interesting, didn't you... Looks ... bare .. doesn't it You wouldn't believe how much swearing it's taken to get it this far! The only thing those pics don't show very well is just how much oil is plastered all over the front of the engine/alt/ps pump etc etc.. it's *everywhere*. Looks like it was coming from the crank seal, so it's a good job I'm replacing that - so long as the mating surfaces aren't scored of course..

Hi, I know the original group buy fell through and there is another group buy on route. Is anyone else still interested in the AGX option before I contact someone about prices? Jez.

Yes came back to my car today in the car park where I have to pay £2 a day. I always check my car when I get to it now. First I see finger marks in the dirt on the door, get closer and the fuckers have tried to take the lock out. Dont know if the lock is broken or what but the surroundings of the handle is broken and the door skin around the handle is bent and scratched. My dad says that because I pay to enter the car park that I claim off them. Is this true? Also where can I get an estimate to get it fixed. I dont want some one to estimate patching it up. I want it to look good as new. Does Johnny do that sort of stuff? CheerZ Pissed off Stuart …

Afternoon all. Does anyone know where to get hold of any models of our beloved Zeds? I managed to find a very dodgy "Matchbox" one from a 2nd hand model car dealer at a hillclimb recently. The colour was right (blue) but my real Zed is lacking the model's garish stripes and pink (!) interior. Apologies if this thread has been done before, but I couldn't find much on the search. Cheers

thanks to george reducing them for me and more to come.

Anyone found a tech on how to change the rad fluid - ie for how much fluid and what ratio with water to use? I wanna change mine this weekend. Thanks.

I have exported my TT AUTO to Cyprus because I am planning to move there. Finally I came for holidays here last Saturday and I had the chance to install the Multi Speed Turbo timer and do some 1/4 times (no cameras here My car was completely stock when I did 1/4 runs Best Run 13.4 [Completely Stock] Temp was about 16 Celcius and I had nearly half tank of fuel. Then I install Triflo which was PITA to install. I have WW bodykit and it was impossible to fit. We had to cut both mufflers so as to change both angles. After 2 days of testing it finally fits. The results its absolutely amazing. It sounds like a beast. Never heard anything like this bef…
