as above on saturday morning very nice looking car think the reg was K*** CGM but not sure. Had writing on the sides

Passenger seat beat keeps tightening on people. Anyone had this or know how to fix it lol

I just happened to be filming the Japspeed guys doing their thing and heard the awesome sound of the Dragon Performance RX7 en route so kept my phone filming.....ouch! I popped over afterwards to take a look at the damage and to be honest, it doesn't appear to be too bad I suspect that the thread bare (down to the wire) 225's on the rear had a part to play in it losing grip and causing it to spin out mid drift

I need to rule out the cheap eBay maf I have and my current OEM maf. Both show the same voltage 0.5 so I'm not sure either are right. Thanks. I'm happy to throw in a beer or two!

Still trying to figure out what this is for as it's disintegrated now and really need to sort it ASAP

Not me it seems as I gave up trying.....:surrender: .......I made good time down to Castle Combe; arriving in the vicinity about 8.50 this morning. Then I spent nearly 2 hours just sitting in traffic as the whole area was completely gridlocked - from the end of the dual carriageway on the A350, past the little service area with the Esso garage and beyond. I made it about half way between that services roundabout to the next one; and by 10.40 I had made no more progress. There were a few Japanese cars in the queue - not many though - I was behind a blue Scooby with a great reg (W666WRX) and in front of a nice white 370z. So me, the 370z and a white Mk4 Supra behi…

Over the last couple of days I have had the dreaded intermittent drivers side window problem, which today became permanent! So, looked like the dreaded soldered joints had finally given up the ghost. Looked up Jeff's "How to" fix and hey presto, now works a treat. Happy days!! Nice one Jeff!! Again!

Hey everyone my zed is an import came in in 1999 they put my car on a G reg that makes it a 1989? Now when looking at parts they all say 1990-1994 then 95 on wards so does it matter mines an 89? Also what's makes dvla put it on an 89? Cheers Paul

I was in at a customer today who competes in the bdc, now he is in the process of finishing of his 1jz engined RX8 and today he ordered a Holset turbo from us which believe it or not is off a truck!! Seems to reckon it's good for 600hp!?! While speaking to him he says these work at approx 2.5 bar on the trucks they are intended for, he is going to run 1.5 bar. Now this has got me thinking, since i can buy these from my work at cost is there any holset truck turbo's which would be suited to the zed as the one my customer bought today cost approx £450 +vat Brand new! Bit of a long shot but if someone knew that would be awesome. Will try get some details of the turbo to…

done a few jobs this week,put in a set of kyb adjustable shocks with eiback lowering springs,it made a masive difference to the way car handles and still nice ride on bumpy road.i measured ride height with old suspension then again with new "lower"suspension,turns out car was lower with old shocks and springs,must a bein well fooked! also fixed up exhaust,it was blowing where it connects to turbo elbows,so got a de cat pipe and nissan oem exhaust steel o ring gaskets to cure the problem, sounds great-that bubbling sound gone so v happy!

I bought these off of Slicktop(cheers Davie mate)and I think i got a bargain, All the tyres are just about Brand new, and 350 for a set of O.Z split rims, and decent tyres aint bad

for the new engine im putting in iv invested in some new bits iv got the japspeed lightend crank pulley whats the new belt sizes i need for 3pk????? alt belt p/s belt water pump belt thanks

Hi all I'm doing my first track day tomorrow at Croft in my zed Has anyone got any hints tips or advice? Rich

Have got a smoke problem on idle, when engine is warm.i changed the pcv valves and all the hoses the other week and habe heard it can take 500 miles for them to clear....is this true?.smokes worse on the drivers side, but only on idle, once you drive up the road it clears.smoke is whitey grey in colour and smells oily with a hint of fuel, dont appear to be losing oil or coolant.

Just called Footman James but they have told me they won't even quote a modern car now unless I already have a policy with them. Is that correct?

i got original 99 spec front bumper it`s plastic and not a fibre glass copy. the question is do i need to modify anything or is it direct fit ? should i trial fit it and then paint it ?

Are they the same? Can i use a n/a in my tt??

Hello, I have changed all the plugs on injectors and coils and now i have dilemma! Which coil plug goes on which cylinder? And same for injectors... I have kept wire on more or less same length but .... Also, maybe someone has some king of fool-proof wiring diagram for 300zx?

I have been out of stickers for a few month already and a few members have ask me for them. I am working out a way to post them to members who want the stickers as they are a full A3 sheet, so it isn't something easy to post out. With that said, I will be at Japfest and I will be making my way around the Club Stand to talk with owners. I will be park in the GTR Owners Club with the MeisterR R35 GTR. If you want some MeisterR stickers and you or your friend will be at Japfest, simply wait for me to come around to the club stand or drop by the GTR Owners Club stand. I will leave some stickers on the car so you can just grab a pack if needed.* :)
