Hi all, I'm looking at buying a pair of HKS Super-Sequential Blow-Off valves for my TT. Anyone got them and rate them???? Also, where is the best prices for HKS gear? The best quote I had was off a mate which was £469 all in.

Guys, I am after a brand spanking new engine bay wiring loom as my car is due to have its engine rebuilt soon(I hope!) and now would be a good time to replace it. I know about Courtsey in U.S. but can't be bothered with all the hassle of getting from over the pond. Does anyone know where I can get one cheaper than Nissan main dealers? Luke at Z centre maybe or Darren etc. Would appreciate any feedback, cheerZ. [-)

I was just going to bed when my alarm went off and I heard a car race off up the road. Some shit has prized the whole door handle surround/lock panel out the drivers door and opened it. Are they thick as f**K or what? There are stickers in the windows saying I have a CAT1 alarm and LEDS flashing that light up half the interior but they still have a go anyway. Hopefully it's only a new handle/lock and not a whole new door skin required. The police will be with me in 6 hours. How efficient! Still it's better than a guy down the street had. Someone reached through his catflap and got the house key. Cleared out all the electrical stuff and drove off with it in h…

I have been toying with the idea of selling my NA-auto so I can purchase a TT-manual. However, I absolutely adore this one as I now have her exactly the way I wanted. If I did decide to go ahead with the idea... what price do you all think I could get for her? oh yeah... she's done about 35k miles. You can view her at; http://members.aol.com/jayensmusic/ Also... if any of you have sold an auto NA in order to own a manual TT... what benefits did you personally experience (and downsides if any - fuel consumption not included) Thanks everyone :o)

Hi guys dont know if its of any interest but I have for many years used trade only suppliers for most of my cleaning gear ,oil,stereo gear etc I only very recently visited a retail store (Halford I think) I could`nt beleive the prices, after checking elsewhere I realised how much cheaper I have been buying my stuff.It may be that some of you already have trade accounts but if not is any one interested in me posting some prices? a group buy would be the best way to maximise discounts Let me know what oils and poilishes bulbs mats etc u use and prices. As a rule it seems as far as stereo head units, amplifiers and speakers go that what you pay in Halfords is double the tra…

http://dimensional.com/~mackys/z/ Stumbled across this guys site this afternoon, I was mainly interested in the explanation of the Z ignition system and how it works, aswell as things to check for when your idle is arse etc. I would say that this is a good site for people who are looking to buy and for those of us who aren't as technically knowledgeable about the 300. See what you think. CheerZ Tim ;-) 1991 UK 300ZX TT Auto. Current Status: M.I.A.

Has anyone found dampness/water coming from the boot area after a heavy shower. Well I hope not, but if you do read this ... Initially thought it was a worn rubber seal which goes around the rear window. My first remedy was to put some sealant in places which looked a bit dodgy, but still the problem persisted. This weekend I had the time to remove all the inner trim under the boot hatch. I actually got into the car closed the boot and got my brother to fetch a watering can and hose the whole area. To my surprise it wasn't coming from the window seal but actuall from where the windscreen wiper mechanism enters the hatch. There is a rubber washer on the out…

Only just discovered this forum from a post on the GTR forum about track time at Trax2001 so sorry it very short notice... The UK Supra Owners Club have organised a Airfield/Trackday through www.bookatrack.com at Bentwaters, nr Ipswich, on Sun 20 May 2001 for £89 per car. We currently have a few places left but I'm sure a few Supras will pull out before the event leaving a little more room for other cars. Any over the maximum will be put in the reserves section until people drop out, all places are first come first served. To join up goto www.bookatrack.com Create an account (if you haven't got one) and add your car to your "garage" then lo…

Hello guys, this is to anyone who was thinking of getting there discs skimmend, I can get a mate to do it, I don't know how much but if anyone needs it let me know. Vijay

GuyZ, Just thinking about what else we drive, bikes, 4x4, MPV's etc. etc. Name it and shame it here... I've got a Range Rover Vogue SE which me woman drives around in, actually resembles the inside of a barn(we've got horses!), a Lancia HPE which has sat on my drive for the last two years and me Merc Cossie which is used for work. Am currently 2/3's of the way through my bike test CBT, written test etc. And hoping to be a complete muppett on passing and trying as hard as possible to kill myself on my nice shiney Honda Blackbird(dreams). So come on then, what have you lot got lurking in your garages??? Tim ;-) 1991 UK 300ZX TT A…

please send in some designs so we can decide on a club sticker that i can make up and post to members. there will only be a small fee involved lol really a tiny one. but i think we should have one so we can identify members

Hi guys, my first posting, although I've been reading this excellent forum for the last month and have parted with lots of cash for an 89 TT auto. The problem happened late last night, after a long drive back from Brighton. I was cruising slowly back along A roads (I even let 2 Peugeots overtake me so I wasn't pushing it) and suddenly there was a noise and the car instantly dropped its speed a bit. I couldn't tell what sort of noise it was as the stereo was on pretty loud. I instantly pulled to the side of the road, got out and checked over the car. I then tried to drive forwards and I got the sound of metal on metal, as if my exhaust pipe was dragging along the gro…

Hi Steve Can you check your E-Mail please M8 Cheerz Simon H

Hi all, anyone heard of this.... After about 10 minutes of driving (once the engine is running at normal temp), I get a very annoying squeal at slow speed coming from the the passenger front corner by the wheel. It gets louder if you turn the steering wheel to the left, and goes a bit quieter when turning to the right. It sounds as if the pads are sticking to the brake discs, but having checked them they seem okay. Could it be related to sort of CV joint going dry?? Any ideas???? CheerZ Chris
