http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300-ZX-SPARES-REPAIRS-/330647146920?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item4cfc1b11a8 Been on for 12 hours and its already had 15 bids, reserve not met at £640. It strikes as though he has people 'bidding it up' then if a genuine buyer puts a bid in he's going to send a second chance offer. Something just isnt adding up, or is it just me lol :huh: Ok its got nice wheels but they are probably damaged, at the end of the day its a knackered bent NA...

I have to say a massive thank you to Jeff and Jamie for excellent work on my Zed and perfect customer service. I picked it up today after serveral bits done and i cant believe what a transformation. It has given it a new lease of life once again thanks for everything regards dave

going cheep, not mine. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/fits-300zx-3-piece-split-rims-wheels-/130601184185?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Rims_Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item1e686febb9#ht_500wt_1287

As above, on way home tonight I noticed a puff of smoke in the headlights of the car that was close behind as the old girl came on boost.did accelerate quite sharply so am wondering if this is due to the fuelling spiking as it comes on boost and running rich.doesnt smoke any other time and both exhausts are quite sooty, but its like dry soot not oily soot if that makes sense :)

hi, the girlfriends just bought one last wk on an 07 plate and iv gotta say is bloody quick but do you guys reckon it would it beat my 300zx tt manual? she's been trying to wind me up all wk saying how it would beat the zed, i took it out yesterday for the 1st time and it shifts but then they do have 257bhp, i had a corrado g60 celica gt4 and soarer tt prior to the zed and if im honest id say it would beat them all but then again so would the zed so wot do you all reckon and has anyone had any experience with them before? i refuse to be beating by sum mazda hot hatch haha.

So yeah, like a bunch of muppets, we put the drivers window down before we started breaking the car, but not the passenger one. Now we're looking to strip down the passenger door and the window is up, the fuses are all out, battery out, fuse box out etc. So it isn't really a possibility to plug all of that back in, lol. Is it possible somehow to get the window down without taking the door card off and without power? HELP PLEASE :oops: lol Is it acceptable maybe to just cut the connector for the window controller and run 12v across it to open the window, or is the window motor going to blow up? lol

Has anybody seen the adjustable front tension rods on ebay at the moment 37.95,will these do the job? has anybody had any, seem very cheep .I know you get what you pay for sometimes.

Morning all I have the OEM foamy type spoiler on my Zed which I would quite like to remove for a cleaner look. I know how to remove this... im just wondering what im going to be left with after and how easy it will be to fill all the holes etc and any panel gaps that are created. I think there are 6 holes that are created? do these need spot welding or can they be fillered? (I dont want anything to be a bodge) And then do I need a perspex panel for above the rear light panel? All help is greatly appreciated :) (as well as sarcasm :p)

As the title says really. Can't get the door catches off the breaker. The screws are well and truly in there and no matter what I try, they will not come undone. I can't find my impact screw driver either :gun_bandana: anyone removed these, anything I'm missing? Seems so simple with a phillips screw, but they just aint budging.

just seen these on the mighty bay; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300ZX-BX-STYLE-FRONT-LIP-SPLITTER-BUMPER-bodykit-body-kit-/350508562792?_trksid=p5197.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D2%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D4381736259405314155 nicely done dave, i like these and its been needed for a while. obviously thats janus's old car and marty has changed the front bumber now so has anyone got one fitted to a tt yet? be nice to see some more pics.

Was it you???

Wideband Premium 52mm Air Fuel Ratio kit-Amber/White thought it would be usefull with tweaked engine .. but what side to fitted to ? O/S Bank ? N/S Bank ? all so exhaust temp gauge all ready have Oil P oil T Boost http://prosportgauges.com/wideband-air-fuel-ratio-kit-Amber/White.aspx

Can anyone tell me what this little chap is? Got no idea, Cheers

Where do you all source your aftermarket fogs lights from? I need to get a pair for the fronts but they're an awkwards oval shape and not sure where to start looking (aside from Halfords!) Thanks in advance Vig

seen various larger disc options with relocation brackets to fit standard calipers. is it worth/beneficial to upgrade to larger front discs whilst retaining the standard calipers. i was thinking something like 345mm drilled and grooved discs, but my aim is to improve braking force/ stopping power. would be good to hear from people with bigger discs...... as they have experienced the change. thanks in advance

I love my 300zx, and i have put over 1000 hours into it. Alas, the alure of the origional z's is getting to me. 240z is out of my budget by a long shot. Was wondering if i could direct fit 240z tail light section into the 260z? Also if there was anything to be wary of. Here is the one i'm looking at: http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/cars/nissan/auction-422328737.htm Any input greatly appreciated guys.

Hey guys, I have just bought myself my first 300zx this evening :thumbup: which I will post up in the Newbie section as soon as its actually in my possession! The problem occurred when the transporter turned up to collect it we couldn't get it on his truck! The car is lowered and has a long front bumper and low back bumper and literally didn't stand a chance of getting onto the truck without destroying it. :cursing: Its also a non-runner so needs to be winched onto the trailer Does anyone know of a car transporter that has a very low trailer, based around London or Norwich which are the pick-up and drop off points? Unfortunately I don't have a vehicle wit…

I have a wiring diagram for both EURO and JSPEC. The JSPEC matched up perfectly when wiring up the ISO in my black n yellow one, but now I am trying to re-wire the stereo in the UK grey one. The diagram I have is pretty useless so I'm wondering if it was for a series 2 UK car, and the series 1 is totally different. Has anyone got experience with this, or a correct diagram that can help me out? I searched the forum first and didnt get anything. I dont want to wire thing thing up wrong :sweatdrop:

as title suggests, clutch is very audible when pressing the pedal, hope its not a sign that the master's on its way out. it was once an automatic if that makes any difference.

Hi guys, Got some Eibach 15mm Spacers, without them I can't fit my brembo brakes. The nuts are sitting to proud causing the wheels to not sit properly. Only realised after I fitted them and scuffed the back of the wheel. Doh! Had a look at Jeffs thread but didn't see a solution to the problem, as far as I'm concerned I haven't bought crappy parts and I am using the nuts that come with them. Cheers, Rob

ok soon i will be installing the driftworks hicas delete kit, but what parts do i need that go in place of the solenoid under the bonnet, to delete and remove it. And where can i get them/ it from. i do not want to get an NA PAS pot/ pulley though as i have lightened pulleys already.

Am thinking of getting a driftworks hicas eliminater kit in the new year and im wondering how much difference they make to the handling?......is it a noticeable improvement?.

Thanks Dave great battery well wrapped nice to do business with you
