was up for sale but taken it off the market for now...... went to pick her up from my old address last night, at about half ten and got home at half 2!! car wouldnt stay running, kept just cutting out like someone was turning off the key, revs just dropped instantly, then finally got it running and after about 2 miles started to get really hot so pulled over and saw steam coming from under the bonnet!! so sat on the side of the road waiting for the AA to rescue me........ just had a gut full now, had it 6+ months and just one thing after another, going to send it to my mate for him to see whats what and if he cant sort it then it will be bitz'd if he can sort…

A couple of zeds booked in for replacement radiators today, nothing new there however one of them had a larger alloy rad. It was one of the ones that are very popular having been available at good price for a few years now, this was a surprise to see how bad it had failed, not only was it leaking from a crack in the header but the lower part of the matrix had blown out and down, just like a 20 year old Nissan unit, a bit disappointing? on a 3 year old unit? Note: lack of antifreeze/ coolant additive Jeff TT [ATTACH=CONFIG]70050[/ATTAC

are you lot meeting up before you go into japfest if so would you mind me tagging along ?:biggrin:

Have a look through the stuff I have in the garage and came across my strut brace. I was wondering if it's a front or rear one, whether it's a stillen one or just a sticker on it if not what make is it and what's it worth Thanks

I've been trying to move a bolt that's been stuck for many years as JeffTT said previously to try tightening an Allen key bolt with a nut round it. I just cannot move the dam nut. Any ideas on the best way to move it?

G'day folks from Aussie land. It has been a VERY long time since I was last here. I haven't been visiting forums much in the last couple of years, but starting to browse again. I apologize in advance if you frequent 300ZXclub, aus300zx, or tt.net as you've probably read/seen this already. Towards the end of last year a very rare 300ZX popped up for sale on the other side of the country. A 200o model, arctic white, twin turbo, 5 speed, version S, slicktop. Sadly it wasn't in original trim & the condition wasn't perfect. That said, I couldn't pass up the opportunity of owning such a rare 300ZX. This is how she after being delivered via truck, train &…

I've had a good hunt around here and the Interwebnet in general and I still can't find the answer...!! So I'm afraid I have to ask it here - I apologise in advance for this... *puts "n00b" hat on* Aside from the lack of rear seats, what are the actual physical differences between a SWB and LWB Zed please?? :huh: :ninja:

It was Saturday afternoon, in a private car park in Windmill Street. Looked very nice.

I'm sure I saw something a couple years back...but can't find it. Does anyone know if replacement '3000 V6' sticker / badges are available for the center 'cable cover' on top of the engine? I would like to paint mine and have tried removing the badge with the usual hairdryer trick, but it's going to mess up the badge, probably wont be reusable. Cheers.

I swapped the zed's knackered starter motor for a working one today, I was surprised at how much play there was in the old one!

I want to change me speedo face, any tips or advise welcomed before I start the job. Paul

Is this anybody on here? -

I'm not entirely sure what's gone on here, because apart from a recent battery change and a 'collapsing/failed trolly jack' incident which caused the zed to take a bit of a knock when it dropped, I can't see any reason why this noise would occur. The oil level and oil pressure is good, oil passing through engine ok (I recently plumbed in a new oil cooler) but to eliminate that as a potential cause I removed the cooler from the equation and connected the oil pipes with a short length of hose (no difference). I did find a small hose that had become disconnected on the passenger side of the plenum (traced the hissing and re-attached it) which apart from stopping th…

i see a very nice zed around half 5 going towards the tescos round about anyone off here

Peeps Is there a guide anywhere on the forum showing how to swap out the bolsters on the front seats, how to re attach them once youve removed etc etc etc As per my other thread, my driver seat base is shagged so Ive managed to source a complete set of Series 4 seats in the same blue cloth as mine. They look in better condition (all be it dirty) but i wont know what the bolsters are like until i sit in them. Ive sussed out the cover removal (though not started yet), its just the foam bolsters im not sure about Ive had a search but cant find anything obvious Thanks
