Whilst looking on the net for wheels for Harve I came across this: http://www.thisisbromsgrove.co.uk/worcestershire/bromsgrove/news/BROM_NEWS_MEMORY48.html God only knows why Altavista linked this to wheels but there you go. Well it made me laugh anyway. Especially the 'serious' accident!!! Andy

Bought a set of plugs from a very friendly Nissan dealer in B.ham good discount, not as cheap as Lukes though, anyway finally did them yersterday pain in the ass removing the balancer tube etc,etc Have been very surprised that my zed is running much smoother even the auto box feels sweeter have noticed though my tick over rose to 950rpm in park until I had done 100+ miles is this any thing to do with the better fuel burning and the ecu relearning? any thoughts anyone? cheers Jeff TT

Right here we go again then... Over the past few days I've noticed some cracking nicknames for cars... Escort Cossie(with 6K paint job = Dagenham Dustbin 300ZX TT = Zanussi Twin Tub Got any more? Love it! Haven't laughed so much for ages, well not at work anyway!!! Tim ;-)

Pinched this off a post on the TT.net forum, print it off, save it...whatever! Must be useful to most. Tim ;-)

You da man, Thanks Johnny, Traction Control has arrived at base camp. CheerZ GeeZer, what a diamond! Tim ;-)

Check out this gorgeous paintjob... http://www.z32.com/index2.html - click on My Z32 anyone have an idea of how much this would cost and, more importantly, where I could get it done, properly??

Has anyone on here had their windows tinted/blacked out? If so where and how much can you expect to pay? I know that there are loads of firms around but I'm looking for a company that does a pukka job. Not really bothered about who's the cheapest etc. I think with window tinting you get what you pay for! Tim ;-)

The garage I got my car from have another TT for sale. It's been there for months and the price has dropped from the price displayed on their site - www.japcars.net I think it's £5995 on the screen now.

So why is it 31 posts for full membership? 32 i can understand, Z32 etc. but not 31! Is it: Average age of 300zx driver perhaps? Number of days in January? inside leg measurement? waist measurement? other? Not that i am getting a complex or anything! Still, only 29 more posts to go until i am a member. Ian (JUNIOR MEMBER)

I'm thinking about getting one of these exhausts but if I am getting one, I need to get it asap. Does anyone know of anywhere that may have one in stock and can ship it down to me in London? What sort of price should I be paying for one? Cheers, Andy

See my last post in wheels. Group buy maybe! harve [This message has been edited by harve (edited 05-06-2001).]

One for the Techno heads this... Was looking up a part number for Russ on TT.net and decided to have a look at the PTU or Transistor Ignition Unit as they prefer to call it. What was going on, bad design from the start or something? No wonder they were recalling, but we didn't get the recall here(as usual!), why not? Check this out:- 0789-0993 Hitachi 0789-0993 Mitsubishi 0993-0795 Hitachi 0993-0795 Mitsubishi 0795- Mitsubishi And to top it off, all different part numbers aswell. So, if your PTU goes down and you need a new one, do you opt for Mitsu. or Hit.??? I had mine replaced recently, and I remember looking at it and seeing Mit…

I've been told that I need a new themostat on my 300zx twin turbo. It's a 1991 two seater import - does anyone know whether I need a part from Japan or a part number that I can ask for? Thanks Russ

GuyZ, Just after some opinion here, has anyone used them for upgrades etc.??? Good or bad experience(s)??? Web site is good and lists some serious BHP mods along with prices. Tim ;-)

HI guys, Where's the best best place to put the Z up for sale apart from the trader and here. I need to part with mine fairly soon so I need a buyer quickly. Any advice would be much appreciated. Chris

Any of you guys got experience with the Scarab Exhausts advertised on Luke's website? I like the look of two rear pipes as oposed to four. How many extra hundreds BHP gain i there? I would guess most cat back systems are similar in terms of gains. Glenn

i was thinking we should put links on the site of all the websites we find on nissan related things as maby there are a few i have not seen or maby aby of you have not seen.. http://nismoparts.safeshopper.com/34/cat34.htm?611

Anybody heard anything about John's stolen car? Has it turned up yet?

Hi, I have put some more stuff on Lukes website, (Gallery, QuickShift, Spoiler Info, Cars for Sale, etc) so if you want to have a quick look go to: www.zcentre.co.uk Cheers, Martin Walton

it's a bit vague in the presentation, but it looks ugly. http://www.nissan.co.jp/SKYLINE/REBORN/ [This message has been edited by lymon (edited 05-06-2001).]

So come on then, what`s the difference between a "Junior member" and a fully fledged "Member" on this forum ? it certainly carn`t be age, must be looks? you`ve obviously seen me zipping around in my Zed! Apart from needing to look a lot older, what else do you have to do to become a "member" ? and keep it clean!.

North Weald has a Drag Race meet scheduled for Sunday June 17th, Fathers Day. I'll be there, any of you guys fancy it? http://www.dragrace.co.uk Grant

Just wanted to say a big thanks to Phuong at GR Racing, have just ordered my Techtom MDM-100 and decided to order an ASP underdrive pulley aswell. With the pulley it's only an extra $5 shipping. He's in the States in case you hadn't clicked. Top banana! Tim ;-)
