Whats this?? I found a fuse in the engine bay labelled 'Skid Control', I didn't realise we had any!! Do we?? News to me anyway.

I've seen some of your fittings on the left! But im looking for an upgrade on all 4 speakers - front ok there not that bad to get hold of - - But the back std size spkrs I cant find. even in specialist shops! I want to fit std size upgrade spkrs x4. + amp with two subs, one in the tool box, & one in opposite boot space compartment. Need boot space. I'd like to keep all 4 std size spkrs same make, any ideas. Im running a pioneer head 45w x 4 if that helps. At presant I have 2 hitatchi's std's split to buggery Sounds like a f+++Y fart not good!

I'm in dire need of a pair of standard intercoolers for a project only. Willing to buy if very cheap, rent for 2 months or better still borrow, even swap for a spare pair of radiator hoses or Momo Carbon Shadow gear knob. They can be in any condition, no matter how bad, if successful will be of benefit to all in the club, so dig em out and give us a bell on 01624-677424 or e-mail smithy@manx.net. Cheers boys.... Smithy, I.O.M.

i am having trouble finding a colour match for the paint on my car code reads EH7, had the colour made up but is no where near the correct shade, does any body else have the same colour but with a different code on aluminium plate under the bonnet. cheers "T".

...I replaced them last week, and I am not sure what condition they should be in, if the engine is running correctly. I thought a plug, oil and filters change was in order after a hard winter's commuting.Especially as the plugs were the original ones fitted in Japan. I have stuck with Castrol RS oil, which seems a decent enough oil...I used it b4, six months ago. JEZ300Z

Hi, ok here goes, The venue is a lakeside windmill pub/hotel complex, with play area, restaurant, large car park with hedges as divisions one of which im sure will be ours!(not hedges). We have permission of the venue for this Z head meet. It is called THE CALDECOTTE ARMS. The pubs map is too confusing to read from out of the area. So please go to www.streetmap.co.uk then click post code.- enter post code MK7 8HP. This will give you a very close map! Then click on the minus square at the bottom of the screen, this will pan out the map, keep clicking untill you are familiar with the map & print off what you need. The venue is only 200 yds from the A5 dua…

Just found out my Z needs a new air conditioning condenser. Nissan want the best part of £300.00 quid for a new one!!. Is it worth hunting around for a used one ? Will a condenser off an import fit in a UK spec Z ?. Or will I have to bite the bullet and pay for one from nissan. Has anyone had the same problem? Any thoughts please guys!! Cheers Simon H

Hi Peeps, Need to get the starter of my Z this weekend & put it back on again. Does anyone have any pics or location to tech pages on this subject. Just want to know if I have to break my arm in 3 places to get to the damn thing. Been looking on tt net and it's not looking good for my arm. Ta Eddie ;-)

Hi My zx (i think) has a PSG front on it. After chatting to Andy it seems the front fogs are different than the standard. Does anyone know where I would be able to get two sets of the plastic/glass covers that sit either side of each lamp (please see pic). Many thanks

Hey All, Check out this web-site:- http://www.carsurvey.org Go to the Nissan section, then 100nx section and read some of the reviews in there. Especially the 100nx review under the 1993 section...poor bastards! Put your reviews on for your 300's, I've put mine on there already. Most are good but unfortunately mine was rather harsh, sorry! Later GeeZerz [->

Jap company Speedlab on the net. Has anyone had any dealings with this company if so any advice, details etc would be very helpful. Better still do you know any UK firms who deal for them. Thanks, Smithy, I.O.M

...I ordered them from Maciek, who advertises on this forum sometimes. They only took a week to arrive by post, and are of a good quality leather. Considering the low cost ($50), I would highly recommend them. JEZ300Z

Anyone recommend a good specialist broker for a 300?

HI, Looking for a very good condition stock steering wheel!...to replace the one on my car, which has a chewed up leather rim.Also need a replacement manual gear knob. JEZ300Z

....is there anybody in the midlands region who could reliably/reasonably do the 60K service on my car? JEZ300Z

Paul. Hope you got back to your Island O.K Please give me a call re: Wing Mirrors. CheerZ Johnny

Not directly Z related but anyways. I want to replace the standard Tape/Tuner + CD (Double Din). Anyone know of MP3 players for cars using removable media? or maybe gap in market .... Glenn

Hi all My 2 seater/jap is on 85000KM and therfore coming up to its 60K service (oh shit). I phoned my local (BH postal area) Nissan Approved dealership and they said they could do it and it would cost around £350-400. This seems very realonable. Is this sound about right. Any comments welcome.

Wanted: Any kind of engine for my 300 TT Auto. 1991 UK car. If anyone knows where I can get a cheap recon etc. I will be forever in your debt. Cheers GeeZers The Smithy [-)

okay, i now have the application form for this event. prices:- entry per person, if paid before 01/05 = £4 entry per person, if paid before 05/08 = £5 dedicated club track time:- £650 for max 40 cars so minimum price per car is £16.25 30 cars = £21.67 20 cars = £32.50 our track time and stand are provisionally booked, but i need to confirm as soon as i can to guarantee it. SO, WHAT DO I WANT FROM YOU LOT ? go to this thread and give me some definite yes's (for both track time and attendance ;) as soon as there are enough people (30+ people for track time i think is a good price) then i will email you all with my bank account…
