Then they would probably look like this...

so whats the pros and cons 525s vs 535 turbos

I've not been on here for a long time but seem to remember I had populated my rides section with a lot of detail - and it's not there anymore! I did try searching for any news but couldn't find any - what happened to it all? And how do I set it up again? I only see options to upload photos now....

passed us tonight as we were heading home from the fort in Glasgow. only caught a glimpse as it passed. First thing my wife said was you know its a 300 when you hear it before it even passes you it sounded nice.

Never seen one topping out at 120mph before. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/300ZX-Z32-MPH-SPEEDO-CLUSTER-INSTRUMENT-PANEL-Two-white-dials-91000-miles-/121225561244?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item1c399b449c UK cars obviously have 180mph dials. USDM have 160mph dials. Wondering whether it's converted JDM clocks as I think the boost gauge is mmHg rather than PSi. Maybe in the heyday of the grey import trade for these cars, you could simply fit a dial face rather than go through the process of fitting a speed converter?

Need dome advice here, 2 months ago the heater matrix was changed, by mistake a new one was not re-fitted, since then the windscreen and both drivers and passengers side windows all have condensation on the inside. Since the heater matrix was changed there is no hot air coming out the vents at the top of the centre console, it will blast up to the windscreen and also down by your feet but not into the car from the top vents. Any suggestions?

Is this the relay near my brake peddal to playwith to make my lights flash at norm speed again cas of leds fitted yes.

Right then guys, nice easy one. Can you tell if this zed is a long wheel base or a short wheel base. The answer is actually very obvious for those in the know, but for the newbies please don't spoil it. we can reveal the answer tomorrow once they have had a stab at it. Just a random z32 from google images. Feel free to add more examples, but make sure you know 100% which one it is before you post your tester pic. Hence the reason I piced this pic, no cheating fuel filler flap shot and another tale tale that makes us 100% ok here we go....... SWB or LWB?

Well got a bit done on the car,got the Tailgate smoothed and in primer, Blacked the roof bars front and rear................. Then tried on the arch extensions, I'm not having these on the car, just trying for fitment as they are the same we made for Bob's car. Looks like they fit a LWB spot on! Will look great with wider wheels.......... :wink:

Can anyone tell me the width with the mirrors folded in, at the very widest point? I have to move my Zed (engine-less) and unsure if it will fit in the new garage. Thanks in advance (be precise, it's gonna be a tight squeeze) :-)

I got my zed back today, been waiting forever lol... I picked it up has a shell with doors on cause I picked all the other bits up Thursday. Can't fit car and all the parts in the garage so had to throw bumpers etc on, I haven't lined them up properly yet gonna do that tomorrow. But run out of time today so ive got to leave it outside in the rain tonight to the space is clear to get it in. The carpets are coming out again so im sure a little bit of water wont hurt it to be honest I have no choice. It has no windows in either lol... I really like the colour and its really quite white, its so hard to explain the colour but now its dark the s…

With 2014 marking the 25th anniversary of the launch of the Z32 300ZX, here are photos and videos from key events around the world as Nissan launched the new car during 1989. Chicago Autoshow - February 11th-19th 1989. The show attracted over 990,000 visitors. This show was the main launch event for the US, Nissan's most important marketplace for the new car. Katsuo Yamada, chief designer of the 300ZX project for Nissan Motor Corp, stands next to the new 300ZX Turbo model just before the opening of the show. For the US, the NA 2+0 went on sale (shown above as a 1990 model for marketing reasons) from May 1st 1989. The NA 2+2 we…

Any ideas how how much it will cost to have the outer sills welded at a garage please. My z failed the mot today on corroded sills on both sides and and also corroded centre chassis rail.

Hi guys are grade 8 plugs too cold for a lightly tuned z32 exhaust filter uprated side mounts 1 bar boost seen some Hks ones on eBay that all thanks Taff

what is the official tyre size on oe 300zx rims are the supose to be staggered?

Gonna be fitting bigger intercoolers soon and I'm reading up about the coolant tank being right behind the passenger ic. Has anyone moved theirs to help the air flow better? If so, let's hear some details of where to and what tank you used instead. Also, anyone know the standard tank capacity?

The speedo on my 1990 uk man tt has a mind of its own the rev ones fine. The speed will work sometimes then not atall. Sometimes it just bounces around like a nutter not having any kind of pattern to its behaivor. Am i to asume that its a easy fix like a new plug or do i need to buy a soldering iron and take the cluster out .cheers
