General Discussions - 300ZX Related

Just seen a long advert for this game on TV and my son pointed out a yellow 300zx in the advert. Rewound the Sky+ and yes tis true. Guess it means its in the game as well.

Does anyone have any of the original concept sketches for the 300zx. Id love to see them, maybe turn them into a poster or something. And ofcourse id love to see peoples attempts. I suck at render sketches. :thumbup1:

Hi All, So I came onto the dual carrage way, gave it a bit of gas upto 75. Immediately afterwards there was a loud bang followed by a horrendous grinding noise which sounds like my exhaust scraping on the floor. Pulled over and nothing underneath so drove 6 miles home at about 10mph sounding like a tractor! I jacked up the car when I got home and the grinding noise appears when I turn the wheels, it is more dominant when turning the wheels forward. Where the prop joins the diff there is ALOT of play which leads me to believe the pinion or (centre?) bearing has disintegrated? Is this right? What is the right bearing I need? Is this the correct dia…

Hi All, I'd ideally like to fit my stock exhaust with some new, wider tail pipes. the problem i have is that i'd probably need to remove the tow rings to enable them to fit so my question is this.

Ok, I've had my Zed less than a week and I've broken her! Snow or not I've been using the car on and off, just getting use to her. I haven't had any problems other than in-roads where there are two tyre tracks and a clump of ice / snow in the middle. Now my Zed has huge back boxes, behind these back boxes there seem to be addition silencers, these rub and catch on the snow. I assume its these catching. Anyway, I was driving along on a clear road when I could hear a rattle, which got increasingly louder. I figured I had knocked loose an exhaust clamp which was now rattling around the exhaust. The rattling / vibrating was making quite a bit of noise …

Got a hold of conzult and just wanted a knowing member to check out these readings and see if they make sense and if anything needs to be adjusted. I'm still thinking i've got some sort of leak down the passengers side of the engine; i've checked and carefully listened but cannot pinpoint it; seems to be down the back end of the right side of the balance bar - small hissing noise. Anyways heres the pics of conzult.

just to proof that your exbaby is NOT neglected ]] more pics will follow ..
