Hey guys. Was out in the swb yesterday for the first time in a while & the heater wouldn't blow hot air. One of the heater matrix pipes at the rear is hot one is cool so hot water must be getting into the car, any suggestions what this could be?

Anyone on here ever used Fast Lane Styling in Romford?? Seem to advertise custom exhaust for around £470 catback on ebay and Google reviews seem favourable.

I just sold my 300ZX TT and I just realised that I cant live without. But this time I'm looking for a convertible. So my question is if they did TT version engine in convertibles? I could not find any info about it. ALl cars what I found were non turbo...

Brought some eBay HIDS H3 for my dipped beam. But after having a read on some posts they say that JDM is H3C. I have JDM so I am guessing I can't use the H3?

I went to visit my Nan today and noticed she had a copy of MP sitting on the coffee table. Turns out my Gramps found it while clearing out my old bedroom, been 18 years since I last stayed there. Thank god he didn't find any of my other "reading" material. Anyway I've attached pictures of the article. Enjoy!!! If the owner of the car is on here I'd be happy to send you the mag. Edit (rotated the photos but the original ones are still there and I can't seem to delete them)

I recently inspected a '88 Nissan 300ZX 2+2 ( E832YAK ) for a prospective purchaser, being sold by Modern Classics ( owner is also a salesman at Motor Hub who major on write offs and imports ; check their comments ! ) The car is shamefully different from the description being given and works recently undertaken to get it on the road are nothing short of disgraceful ; there is also no functioning handbrake Major issue is that the car has been grounded ( speed hump ) and front wings inner and out, near and offside have been caved in and crudely patched Whatever you do inspect this car from underneath

Can anyone offer thoughts on the available options for a double din centre bezel please ? Z-Thirty Two or Interior Innovations I guess are the choices ? For the stereo unit itself principally I want a good GPS, radio and phone (Android) unit (touchscreen preferably) Thanks

This is obviously a test for your benefit, I of course know the answer. Obviously. I mean what sort if idiot wouldn't. Not me certainly. Is this a brake pedal, or an NA clutch pedal? Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

HI gents Is it Easy enough to fit Cruise Control to your car if it hasn't been fitted with it? switch at the pedal and the vacuum and mount? cheers trev

Right peeps, this thing is now seriously annoying. I have a noise. An annoying, rattly, scrapey, whirring noise that I've traced to a small fan in a mess of plastic right up in the map light pod on the ceiling. Car's been unused for a little bit and this noise genuinely tainted the first drive its so obnoxious. My question(s) therefore are, what is this fan, why does it do what it does, do I need it, can I rip it out/fix it easily, how many kidneys would I need to sell for a new one if it is an essential part? This thing... Also, does anyone with (or without) an imported Z, have (or have pictures of) an original front plate mount (or equivalent) as…

Picked up an automatic box from Ted this weekend,. He cut this cable for the connector,. It goes into the auto box,. Can this be replaced?

This looks clean:tt1: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F253281126189

The apple of my eye (let's hope my daughter doesn't read this!) is now safely at Powerzed. I delivered it last Wednesday to Jim and his initial positivity has been backed up by a strong compression test result so it's full steam ahead on the mechanicals. He was also very positive about the bodywork issues that, whilst to me seemed terrible, were not as bad as feared. We did have a very hairy moment when getting the car off the trailer.....as the drivers side rear wheel left the ramp it kicked it off the hook and I carried on oblivious until the front fell off the trailer and sat on its nose ! Some quick thinking and a handy trolley jack later I'm happy to say t…

Thanks to Ted in Lowestoft for giving me an Autobox for free! It cost me a 400 mile round trip from Folkestone, don't ask me how!! Let's hope this turns out to a good swop. Art

I'm currently researching an alternator upgrade for my datsun and I came across the P12 Primera 2.2diesel alternator which is a 110amp unit with the mounting ears in the same position as the Z32 one, and the datsun one. It has a V groove pulley so would need the pulley to be swapped but it's bolted in so shouldn't be a big problem. Looks like the width between the ears is about correct too but I'm waiting on confirmation on that one.... Anyone else knows what fits? I've heard someone use a 350Z one?

Wots all this then??? I have been told its Ash Spec pipework? As an NA owner/driver I have no idea.:whistling: Is it all there?? Anything missing??? What exactly is it???

Hi guys So my drivers side seat belt doesn't recoil as quick as I would like it to, I have to feed the last 150-300mm in. Can anything be done to bring this back to life or is it a new part that's needed? Cheers, Chris.

Or something worth saving. From the pics it doesn't look to bad and could well be worth restoring. Its parked up in Scotland (Skye) and if you have time and good with your hands then take a look. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300ZX-TWIN-TURBO-AUTO-UK-SPEC/112660252458?hash=item1a3b13072a:g:tAMAAOSwSutaHG38

Does anyone either have the 'male' part of this connector (with pigtails if possible) surplus to requirements...or know what it is called and where it can be obtained? Thanks Gary

Hi ZEDDERS, Any good tips for a winter cover. I can find loads on t'interweb but a recommendation is worth much more. Cheers.

Can anyone please advise me if the above joint is supposed to move freely / smoothly or is it supposed to be 'clunky like the one 1 I've bought from eBay? Am hoping it's you g to solve my 'on / off' feel to the steering. Cheers James

Hi, After recently saying on here I dont want to modify mine in anyway I decided to buy some wheels! The car just looks a tad too narrow from a side on view with the stock ones on so I changed my mind! I've ordered some and then got a phone call from the place I bought them from to say they cant guarantee they will fit and its up to me if I want to take the risk!!! They said they might need spacing. Can you please advise if they will or not. Fronts are 17" x 8J X ET35 Rears are 17" x 9J X ET35 Thanks very much
