Hey there need a sincere honest advice; here it goes; when I bought my Z couple years back in Italy the guy whom I bought it from had it completely stock; that is nothing changed except for the fact he had MAK Velano wheels (still does) the rest it´s completely stock originally..well it has the sungard tinted film on the windows..inside nothing has changed; the thing is a while back I am thinking about putting the BC Coilovers to slamm the Z..and I also was thinking about putting the JDM 99 rear lights; and also changing the speedo meter from white to blue leds...and I also has put the red stitched shift knob and handle break; The thing is.talking to him today after …

I know it,s a long shot but does aybody know of a way of changing the front n/s injector without removing the plenum ? i think it,s died You can clearly see one screw but the other looks near on impossible to get to without removing everything :surrender:

has anybody got any pics showing where the water drains out from the targas . i need front and rear . if i can get into the drain route well enough im hoping to make a complete drain tube with no joints and possibly an extended piece to take the water away from the body underneath the car. i just need some outlet point pics to get me started. cheers andy

has anyone bought from Z1 recently, and can remember roughly what import duty is? iirc it was about 20% last time i bought from them, im going to be ordering a load of bits in the next couple of weeks so just trying to price it all up.

it's being a bit funny and only coming On every now and then. Not really found a good description of what this warning is for or what to check (think its for abs?) can some kind person point me in the general direction of what to look at please :)

Hi there, my new zed has got a 3 " exhaust system, from d-pipe to tips - b&b. Its very very loud outside, and inside its horrible - deep - hurts in the ears. Has anyone the zcentre catback? Is it ok inside the car? Thanks, Pat

What you think to Carbon front lip and carbon side lips? anyone make these for the 300zx ? if not, Car.Mad, do you know how to work wih Carbon? if not do you want me to come show you, and have the first set at cost price for the pleasure of doing so? I dont have moulds here for any skirts and lips, so you have the hardest part of the job done already...... Or if you want to make a weekend of it, we could design a whole new side lip for the Z, that is universal to fit under other skirts..... Here are some Carbon Lip pics on the R35 GT-R:

ive just orderd the sun for the 12th lets hope it turns up on time

Hi all, Not so long ago i had my rear glass replaced in the boot hatch with all new mouldings..But since then ive fitted a carbon boot hatch that i want to swap the glass over too. Is it possible to remove the glass and re-use the main moulding that runs around the glass? I know the L pieces and top moulding can be used again but im getting mixed answers about the long main strip. Has anyone had the rear glass replaced by a company (ie) Auto glass? If so did they replace the moulding? or has anyone re-used it before? Thanks Dan

My Z came off the road last September after the engine was knocking its tats off, I decided enough was enough and my spare TT engine was fitted over the next few months. The car has done 0 miles since then and was SORN over the winter months. Friday just gone and the Z sailed through the MOT, taxed yesterday.. ready to go! I had a football game tonight so thought I'd take the Z... the missus thought I wanted to show off I insisted it just gets me from A to B (in a Bruce Nolan voice!) I forgot how many people stare at it as you drive past, heads turning, people pointing etc... thought I'd try out my number plate hider when I parked my car up and the car got plenty of …

Tried to have a drive today but i seem to now have a massive over fueling problem.. Its bogging down and not reving cleanly it also has lots of black smoke. And it stalls could it be the temp sensor or the o2 sensors the car is decatted but it does have sensors still. I'm loosing the will to live.... maybe i should have got an N/A :no:

Well today I set the wheels in motion to getting my zed back. Popped through to see sandy and collected a new bonnet and a wing, top guy. While there he kindly offered me the front shell of a breaker to help with the rebuild. Next stage is to get the front bumper from jaikai hopefully sometime this week and get it up to the body shop to get it straight again

I have started a separate thread for Bob's day at the Cadwell Park Time attack Round. Jaffa has already posted up his experience on his own thread. In contrast Bob n me had a pretty successful day all round. IMO In the first morning warm up he did a 1.55s lap . This improved to a finals best lap time of 1.45s in 2011 that would have won the club class RWD category. Not this time tho .... as many seasoned competitors had clearly upped their game (and power) over the winter, and the best RWD club driver posted a 1.40.5s lap!!!! the overall pro class winner posted a 1.27s lap in his Evo. (Gareth Lloyd) So... We went. We did warm up seesions.:thumbup1: …

So who here just spent 185 smackeroos on a polished plenum ? I've been trying to sell mine for just 100! Life makes no sense .

Checked the old girl over under the bonnet and gave it a bit of a tidy up under there ready for a week in yorkshire starting tomorrow and all good to go now :) And a shot of my new brembos

Have been slowly sorting the engine bay over the last few weeks. Loads of chrome and polished bits and painted the cam belt and throttle covers. Powdercoated rocker covers and plenum still to fit. Enjoy
