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

Post here any questions or advice regarding getting your Z through an annual Mot test.

Known throughout the UK, America and further afield it was nice to meet a club member from here who was visiting Belfast. Thanks for fitting me into you busy schedule mate it was a pleasure to meet you again.:thumbup:

Who the heck has bid this zed up to £810 ??? clearly cannot read ? 10 years off the road sat with engine in bits and body rotted off, no way.... not even any use as a brealker !

It was stripped because of a noisy lifter, I have a spare head and turbo with the engine with good lifters in. The gearbox was fully working when it was in use but this is around 10 years ago. "

Delivered to my Zedworld account, thought it might be of interest to some of you. Jeff

Now the she's all tucked up for the winter I would like to be able to keep the dust off. Has anyone got a recommendation for an internal car cover for the 300? Cheers, Chris.

Does anyone have a good layout of the TT Cooling system layout, im particularly interested in the pipes at the rear of the engine, especially around where the EGR valve used to be, Thanks Sayers

Anyone know if this what looks like capacitor is supposed to be on the back of an alternator? Brought a replacement and it's got it. My thought is not, thanks :biggrin:

as title. not seen it there before but passed it twice today

Following on from a previous thread about the red Z that failed at auction and the comments about classic cars..... I went to a classic car auction just very recently and was genuinely shocked to see that MOST of the entries were what used to be called Tetleys (Tetley Bitters) ! Much rust on display and a lot of them hadn't even been hoovered ! Very few were what you would consider immaculate/restored. They mostly seemed just tired older cars. The most surprising entry of the day was a 2004 BMW 640 Convertible.....not immediately considered a classic imo. It's appeal ? It used to belong to Tara Palmer-Thomkinson ! It was an interesting day out but…

Okay guys what's the consensus on this as im sure many 300's have this problem. Speedo works fine 70% of the time, then it drops to 0 and fires up to 180 then a couple minutes later the PAS goes heavy because the ECU thinks its on a go-slow. So two questions: 1) In my head it would make more sense that the signal from the VSS to the ECU is whats causing the problem (broken VSS, housing or wires), not the clocks themselves, as the ECU is throwing out the PAS based on the signal it's RECIEVING, not the signal it's SENDING out to the gauges. Does this sound correct? 2) Failing correcting this issue as I don't need a working speedo except for MOT time, is there…

hi gents, I recently replaced a weather strip on the drivers door, only to find that I have some wires cut and what looks like a buzzer of some kind.. taking a guess that maybe why my driver's mirror won't fold in&out. any direction would be appreciated do i need to get a new drivers door loom. apologies for picture quality.. the picture have rotated hope you guys can work it out thanks.. trev

Just got some new door mirrors as my driver's side motor (fold in) is a bit tired now. Is it possible to swap the motors from the new ones (and how easy is it) to the old ones? Only asking as I don't want to get the new ones painted yet

My latest import has just arrived and looks stunning and totally stock. its down having the fog light sorted and MOT's, but there is a small problem. The drivers side door lock seems to be knackered, wont lock and my mechanic says he can see bits of springs etc loose inside. what are my options here? Is it possible to get a replacement from Nissan given the key number?

Bought a load of suspension bits of Chris and all arrived safe and sound. Just a thank you for all the help. Now to get the zed on here new wheels and sitting right :) Thanks again mate

Hey folks, so Im in the process of doing some works on the car i.e replacing subframes , brake lines etc. Im still trying to figure out what year the engine is , is there an easy way to tell? I also noted that there is a pipe(blocked off) out of the sump pan , which indicate that the engine might have been a turbo , but was not installed due to a lack of space in the MX5? Can anybody give me some insight. Also I need to replace the clutch slave cylinder as its seized, what is the part nr for this please? Ive seen some of fleeBay but not sure if its the correct one. Thanks.

Hello everyone, Some of you might know my red 300zx :) I am using my 300zx as a daily car as its fun being different haha, for the last few weeks I have kind a started thinking maybe I should sell my zed as i will never stop modding it and get an original 99spec zed, obviously save up a bit a and look for a really clean 100% original car, either here in uk(obviously not many of them are here) or just get one imported. Yes i know its expensive but it is also a good investment. In that case if I would go for 99 spec I would keep it 100% stock (Suspension and etc) that would also be much more like road friendly as its not that low and stiff to use as a daily driver. …
