Silver H reg NA 2+2 spotted at Freeport Braintree, around 15:30 on Wednesday 10th. Looked pretty stock other than a racey style bolt on rear spoiler. Was it you?

I know the whole static show is not for everyone, and tbh by lunch time me personally I'm done with the major shows. Walking round the civics doesn't really get my juices flowing lol, I only really turn up to chat to the club members and if applicable see what's going on, on track. So I was thinking, what sort of things are we not doing that you would like to be doing? For example planned road rallyes, BBQ's, zed specific track days of some sort? What would make you think YES that I want to attend! Ideas on a postcard please.

Need I say more http://uk.news.yahoo.com/ruling-due-whole-life-sentences-020646915.html#WWnJg3A What about the rights of the person whose life they took....

Can anyone tell me what size security Torks I need to take a airbag steering wheel off with. Thanks Paul

Hi anyone know where I can get a hazard warning light bulb? The one in the hazard switch?

if I ever get fed up with my standard look and when I win the lotto I think I would like this done to mine

I want to change my power steering pot over for my chrome one, whats the best place to drain the power steering fluid with out getting it everywhere, i know about the pipe join in front of the steering rack but would rather not touch that pipe due the aluminum nut on it.

Getting there :)

Dumb question maybe but I have 2 vacuum connectors on my sports 650 turbos. Which one is the best one to use. Regards rich

Last night I removed my cam covers and found this oil down the front of the engine. I'm guessing it's from the rocker cover gaskets leaking rather than the cam seals as going on Jeff's thread the other day I would have seen oil on the top of the covers but they were spotless, as is the belt and gears. The gaskets were pretty hard. Give me your opinions before I go any further please.

One of the guys on facebook has found this for sale 1996 na zed with 145 miles on the clock, yes 145 from new. Nice to see a perfect zed in pristine condition shame its not over here http://www.diamondmotorworks.com/detail-1996-nissan-300zx-2dr_cpe_2_plus_2_manual_w_slash_t~bar-used-10512808.html

Ok so ive got ades zed (thanks buddy) and im picking it up at the end of the month the main job I want doing is a tt swap with a man gearbox upgrade from auto ofc. How much am I looking at to have this done by either someone on here with the skills to do it to a high level or zworld? Or is this something a good local garage can do. Rather use a zed guy thought tbh as I don't trust people that have not got much experience on zeds. (THERE a pain to work on and I have the scars to prove it)

On the way to buy ades old zed today I shot past a nice sounding silver zed at about 11:30 just near the m25 anyones here....

So I brought my second zed today... question.. Is there a medical reason as to why im so hooked on these cars.

Hi All, Having owned my Z for 7 days now, I'm still in the process of trying to iron out any problems before the really bite me in the butt! I took the car for wheel alignment today, because the steering wheel wasn't quite sitting true in a straight line, which may have been throwing the HICAS out. The wheel now sits straight so that's one part ironed out... While it was up on the ramp for alignment, I noticed the drivers side front has a fair amount more negative camber than the nearside. The pictures aren't all that clear, but the drivers side wheel is a good inch further in at the top than the passenger side. This is confirmed by a worn tyre on the inside edg…

Im serious about getting one of these flip up number plate things but are they legal? i thought as long as your showing your plate then they should be?

Basically do i buy the same make and model of tyre front and back or put on slight dif tyre on the rear. I was thinking of the tyre size is going to be the same for both groups here goes. Toyo Proxes T1 Sport; rear 265 35 18 £142.00 and front 235 40 18 £123.00 or Yokohma Advan Sport V103 rear 265 35 18 £156.00 Toyo proxes C18; 235 40 18 front £123.00 Basically i was thinking rather than a good all round i was thinking a really good tyre up frount and some reall good but pos better sticker tyres at the rear.Any ideas on that please.

Has anybody used one of these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/370694042635 not a bad price so is it cheap and nasty? any thoughts on hinged braces? should they all be one piece?

Seeing as my car is still unsold its given me time to think about what model zed im after. I think the only way for me to go down the N/A route would be if it was a manual with a little bit of work done to it like a little more beef than 170bhp. At least I think thats what they are standard. Anyone here who owns an N/A auto let me know how it is with regards to power and responsiveness of the gear changes both up and down. Sorry for the anal question I just want to get the right one :-)
