Anyone know a good source for a belt kit with water pump for a 1996 NA? Ideally a complete kit.thanks

I have at last found the right zed! Just bought a 1996 NA auto in red, 33000kms I'm the first uk owner, imported in 2012, totally original with original stereo, targa bags, remote engine start, in absolute immaculate condition! It's not a TT which I really was looking for but I was surprised how the NA still has the ability to get down the road, it was so clean and straight I couldn't not buy it. Smiled all the way home! Or at least to the petrol station.

Looks like the wide arch that used to belong to Buckaroo Banzai aka Croeso is back up for sale. http://r.ebay.com/utIhci

So, went for a spin yesterday in the Zed and came home as usual. Didn't notice anything until this morning - the power antenna on the car was still fully extended - which was surprising. So, after turning the alarm on/off a few times and starting and driving the car up and down the road this morning, it hasn't moved. It is still up. I have noticed that the illuminated side light on that side (below the antenna) has gone out (the other side is still illuminating) so I am thinking something has fused??? Any thoughts on what is causing the antenna not to go down or why the side light has gone out? I checked the bulb in the side light before anyone asks! (It was fine). …

Just after some opinions on value of a zed, 1996 N reg, NA auto, 2+2, 1 owner, 32000kms red, very clean original and solid, 12months MOT 6 months tax. Thanks.

i can arrange a group buy of some $80 + Shipping now just waiting on a Bulk Price from him Info Taken from Site This is NOT your ordinary car cover.

Details on the car cover: - Elastic Hems. - Body strap/clip that will clip the underside - To keep the car cover in high winds. - Double …

For the past 6 years ive wanted to change the boot install in my car, hopefully next year ill do it. Has anyone got any pics of a 2+2 stripped out in the back? I mainly just want to see whats under the plastic covers which cover the rear suspension so i can get some idea of what i can do and how much room there is to play with. Thanks if anyone posts any,

Is it possible for a 1993 import TT LWB to have seatbelts on the doors? Thought that year would make it a series 2 and have front belts mounted to the body?? Anyone got any views on this??

Has anyone got opinions on the real driving difference between a TT and a NA can't seem to find a nice TT to buy at the minute, yesterday I drove 240 miles to view an "Immaculate" zed but it was far from that! Should I hold on till spring next year for a TT or is a NA a real option? Thanks

Can someone with a European spec Z32 confirm for me whether the return hose coming off the oil cooler in front of the car has a restrictor? I know for certain JDM and USDM Z32's have a restrictor inside the hose but I wonder whether European Z32's also received it the stock hose even though they came with larger cooler. Because of the larger cooler the hoses are also different in lenght. Thank you.

I have tried the search function but cant find what im looking for. Being completely new to nissan 300zx I have no idea what im doing but I just brought my jap import car and it had a KBTV speedo converter/ delimiter with mph dials everything is working fine bar the speedo, it work's but seams to be just over double what im actually doing the needle hasn't been played with the previous owner just said it has stopped reading mph and has gone back to kph. I've tried to email kbtv for some help but they just said I make no sense and that if it was the converter/ chip then neither the speedo or rev gage would be working. Could anyone help me or point me in the right direction…

Forgive me Lord for i have been stupid...just finnished spending 2 nights changing my water pump after thinking it would be ok to re-fit my old one during a plenum delete and cambelt change. WRONG:wacko:...the extra tension of the belt on the re-build must have just been enough to finnish off the seal and the inner weep hole started to have a piss all over my garage floor.Dont make my mistake guys when your deep in there doing a belt service as i should know better.

Firstly - VG purists will hate this thread. I've heard it all before so no need to bang on about how I'm.committing a sin etc etc. I love my slicktop. I got it for a steal, so there's no way I'm selling it to buy a TT so forget that option. So with all that in mind, when my house extension and garage workshop are complete next year, I'll be pulling the VG and replacing it. What would people have and why? So fat I have these choices VH45DE LS1 RB VQ35DE or HR VQ30DET. All have been done by others, so all are possible. Some are easier than others obviously. Cost wise - for engine and gearbox and loom they all work out roughly the…

Hi all, Can anyone tell me what model /fitting the bulbs are in our brake lights and front bumper indecators I can't remember off the top of my head? They look the same as each other fittings wise. Cheers Dan

Anybody had any dealings with items made by Godspeed in the states? Seen a few bits and they're prices are good, but with a cheaper price im always dubious about quality. Thanks Neil

Hi guys, Hoping my zed should be ready to pick up Saturday, I've had my zed sprayed few times before, but I've always had plain white. So this time I've gone for a strange audi colour its called suzuka grey pearl effect, It comes on the r8, and rs5, and special order. I've never seen it in real life, except for a sprayout, looks white in the light, grey/silver in darker conditions, Heres a couple of pics of the an audi with the colour, do u think it will suit a z im getting scared now lol...

Making my way to have my mot done this afternoon got forced onto the Kerb to avoid being hit by a mum on the school run and burst two tyres. Gutted they only had few hundred miles of use on them.

Hello gents just a quick question. what does the EGI fuse in the engine fuse box relate to/ control? as a few weeks ago I noticed the car doesn't have a fuse in the spot marked for EGI, but car runs perfectly? Thanks in advance

Anyone know a good priced insurance company for Zeds, i can't use my no claims discount on a second car so it's pretty expensive so far, Adrian flux was way too dear!

Unless anyone has a very good set for sale? Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
