Managed to get to Trax today and (eventually) found where the Zeds were lined up - nice collection! Wanted to get in there to park up, but none of the officials were that helpful in terms of directions etc. Anyway, maybe next year.... One thing worth seeing was the black RS500 doing the 0 to 60 sprint in 3.8 seconds!!!! Any ideas what the f@~k he had under the bonnet?!?!?! Or was the timing gear a little optimistic? Cheers! Dem 93 UK ZXTT

Trying to cut a long story short...... Want to get some decent bass in the Z. Installed new Sony head unit last year along with some MB quart speakers in the doors - well pleased with them. Also replaced the rears with some Kenwood 4x6s which have done f@#k all, but nevermind! Anyway, now the tricky part..... In terms of subs, I didn't want anything big because I want space in the boot for a suitcase and also the T-tops (if I ever drive over to Italy again!). Heard that Focal had released some 5 inch subs so bought a pair of these for around £300 and put them in a small home made box which sits just behind the rear seats. Running off a 2x140W Kenwood amp you ca…

Hi, Good to see the 300s finally go around the track (and not off in the gravel rolling it... poor scooby & expensive 911 Turbo)... was a good day, nice to meet the Holland guys making such a big effort (Eric & Willie)... Hopefully something else will come up soon... Cheers, Jez.

Some may already know about me ongoing saga with me arse ICE install, determined to sort this without having to approach the PRO's like Bob etc. Story goes like this, Sony CD head unit just installed by Halfords...when I turn up the volume the head unit trips out and then comes back on. Obviously not happy! So read the instructions and it says that the unit doesn't like active, sorry probably passive, they're right before the speaker connections, crossovers, turns out that Merc. have crossovers installed, so cut them out of the equation, took the front speakers out completely and just tried it with the Brittney Spears(rears)...still tripping! So headunit out of …

I need a radiator bleed screw desperately - the one in the top left of the rad, as mine has disappeared down on top of the washer bottle never to be fucking seen again This car is really *REALLY* fucking me off now. I drained the rad, finally, only to find an oily film on top of the coolant that came out One more thing and it's getting fucking torched, I swear. Anyway, I really need that bleed screw, don't care if I have to buy a whole f*cking radiator either if someone has one on a car they are breaking. Cheers, Az

And they hate me I think.. Didnt get up early enough to get an oil filter from Nissan.. So got one from Halfords.. But decided that they're a bit sh1t really, so that will have to wait.. Spent 20 mins trying to find the radiator drain petcock.. And failed.. Couldn't be bothered to jack the car up to try and find it (or take the bottom hose off) Still can't adjust the seat with the rear adjuster.. And didn't even *think* about doing the speed convertor given that I bust one of the metal clips off the dash last time I tried.. Az

wahay, had a great time on hols, saw two zeds, but not the owners, sped around the french motorways, generally all round holiday type of thing i realise the TRAX thing hasn't gone as smooth as planned, but many thanks to warren for helping out while i was away, without his help it might have been a disaster anyone who hasn't had tickets or car passes, call me on the day when you are nearly at Silverstone, and i will meet you at the entry gate. if you havent paid yet, they are 5 quid each, better than 15 quid at the gate, but i dont have that many left.... plenty of car passes to get onto our club stand though !! if you have track tickets, but …

piece of FU/ my quote for a 300zx twin turbo is $700 a month save me upto 20% my ass I paid $900 for 6months for my camry with mercury insurance, and with full coverage on my camry and 300zx was quoted at $250 a month with mercury. and I have a pretty clean record minus a $1,500 accident about 4 years ago.

Warren Any chance of a mobile number so the people who are picking their tickets up on the day can get in touch with you. Cheerz Paul

Does this ever get used ? If so when ???. Sat here pissed out of me face on Vodka.....no one to talk to !!

I've noticed my clutch has started to slip in the higher gears, so I suppose a new one is on the horizon. Has anyone got any recomdendations on a good quality clutch that's ok with around 400 brake. Cheers Vijay

I still dont know if I'll be able ot make it on Sunday, but If I can, is it possible to just turn up and get into where you guys will be?? Vijay

Just noticed that there are some gooey dripps from my front tension rod rubber bushes. Noticed here some debate about poly bushes for these. My car handles great and stops straight so when do you decide the bushes are sh*gged? Also is fitting poly ones an easy job? Have done something similar on my 71 scimitar se5 but that has flintstones era suspension.

HKS ALC First person to offer me £90 can have it. I will bring it to Trax on Sunday. Paul
