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, I know there's at least one Kiwi that reads this forum (Hi Berni), anyone else? I'm comming your way - Auz west cost (Darwin to Melboune) in April and New Z (mainly the North) early May. Let me know if you're interested in meeting up and we can exchange details via email. Jez.

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…

How much for a top quality re-spray on a Z? And how long would it take? Matty.

I'm not sure if you guys already know about this site, but my mate just told me about it. I noticed there isn't a link to it on this page anywhere. Haven't had chance to have a good look yet but sounds good. http://www.zhome.com

Sorry to post 'off topic' but I thought this might be of interest. From "The Register" :- Websites forced to identify forum posters It's the Law http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/6/17703.html

I have a car registration for sale that is on retention. The registration is 5009 XZ which is sort of close to ZX I suppose (it is to a police cop looking in his mirror seeing you approaching at 155mph !!!) Its valued at just over £500, but I am willing to accept £280 plus transfer fee (£105). I've even got the original number plates which fit a 300ZX Twin Turbo !! Feel free to email me at geewhizz@onetel.net.uk or call me on 01634 221783. Andy

Anybody got a windscreen washer pump for a 1990 uk spec 300Zx tt. JW
