After far too many years I am getting round to the plenum pull and want to make sure everything is done "while you're down there" and that I have not missed anything off the parts list Started off with the usual oil leak from the rockers so I have rocker cover gaskets in the parts mountain I also have plenum and throttle body gaskets Another job is deletes, I have EGR delete kit and will properly bypass the throttle body coolant bypass, which are currently on a temporary (plenum on) bypass. Are there any other deletes to do? Also whilst the plenum is off replacing the knock sensor and cable and one of the air con pipes as some "expert" snapped off one of the connectors B…

Would be even more annoying if it wasn't me that said to change to trend

Hey guys, I'm just off of Jct28 on the M1 between Nottingham and Sheffield. I know Jimmers is the go to guy here but he's quite far from me (ill travel to him if needs be) but I was hoping there may be some one closer that regularly works on these? Thanks!

With the better weather lately I've been able to get out and about in the car and I've a slight problem with the indicators. The telltale lights on the dash are difficult for me to see. I'm 6'2" with long body so they are partially obscured by the steering wheel and also the glass panels reflect on that part of the binicle as well. Add to this the the fact the flasher unit click is quite quiet, I've found I've left them on a bit too long at times So, is it relatively easy to change the warning light bulbs to LEDs and possible to change the flasher unit to a louder one. If so, where is it located.

What's the best way on running wires from the cabin to the battery?

Taken from Totalcar.hu Original Link A serious accident occurred in Budapest: there may have been an overtaking incident, the 300ZX skidded, and the driver was unable to avoid the collision The driver was seriously injured, fortunately no one was sitting on the right side Accident -Info published Péter Antal's photos A serious, but fortunately non-fatal, accident occurred on Üllői út last night. The rear-wheel drive Nissan 300ZX crashed like we usually see in Japanese photos from the 90s. It's no coincidence that the twin-turbo Fairlady 300ZX was so powerful and difficult to drive for its time that the Japanese Ministry of Transport ordered Nissan to reduce the car's p…

My zed had a failed MOT on Thursday Under Major Defects! - seat belt anchorage prescribed area strength or continuity significantly reduced Nearside Front (floor pan) MOT report. My problem is this ! My seatbelt anchorage is not on the floorpan! So, I took the front Nearside seat out which is good 👍 What advice can you give? Arthur

Can anyone recommend good quality overmats with the correct fitting holes?

Finally got a few little jobs done on my recently acquired Z so I can now post a few photos.

Of to France for a days jolly😀

My 300 zx auto has been parked up indoors for 3 yrs. Battery is good but only get a click when trying to start. Any help appreciated

Hi everyone, do we have a list of club events for 2025, just so I can sort my diary out. Donnington Park are doing a JDM Day in May? https://www.jdmjam.com/

Did the door & sill cavities last weekend

Whilst sitting here being nostalgic about my Z I started to wonder where some of the Zeds I remember are now ? Mac1 SMW1 A green car with a beautiful cream leather interior (I vaguely remember it was done by an ex-RR trimmer) The Beast John Something's 500ZX (with a Q45 in it) My own previous Z which was sold to Dave Carey - does he still have it ? Be interested to know.....please add others if their fate is known..... Mark

Hi everyone I'll be selling my car soon - ill health means I can't drive it anymore, but I couldn't leave the steering wheel as it was. Being a JDM model it had suffered in the sun and the leather had broken down and was beyond serviceable. I've just had it recovered by Simon at Hide N Seat. It looks amazing so thought I'd share a picture !! Great weekend everyone ! Mark

Looking at picking up a 300zx jdm 2+2 which has cloth fitted in the light grey colour if I was swapping out the seats for leather would the factory car still have the same grey material around the doors and dash board if it was leather fitted from factory. Or is there different trims colour combo's? Thanks

We took the Zed on its first road trip of 2025 last weekend. It was Julia's birthday so we went to Dunster in north Somerset for a couple of days, briefly venturing over the border into north Devon...... Not that I need an excuse for posting more Zed pics - albeit this time, it's a little dirty. Never mind, I shall be out washing it next weekend LOL 😉

Hi I have read all the conversion chats and watched all the videos but … I can not find any info regarding deleting the gearbox computer unit GCU / transmission control module any info is welcome thanks in advance

I dropped my Zed off at the local garage for an MOT, plus the annual oil and filter change..... Then I got the call after half an hour to say it would fail as the rear brake pads had worn down, almost to the metal - damn, I should have checked that 😞 But luckily I had a spare set of Mintex pads in my garage, so I wandered down to drop them off. Luckily I got home before the hail storm hit LOL!! I am now pleased to report my Zed is ready for 2025 - with a fresh MOT, a sump full of nice golden Castrol Edge 5w40 and some new rear brake pads 🙂

Hi just wanted to wish all club members and families in the storms path hope you all stay safe and well.
