In the process of getting my white uk tt fully re-finished: * What's important to check, instruct & look out for? * What indosyncrasies do z's have, if any, when it comes to a full respray? * (Bodywork, sils & wheel arches already sorted recently by zedworld) *

My new cams are on the way, I could really do with someone to come out and do/help with the cam belt who is competent. Dont mind paying but could really do with the help to make sure its all done properly. Any ideas?

Hi people, I have been looking to get some bigger injectors for my 300, and have found this little set-up from Z1 in USA. What do you all think, good or bad?

Hi all, remember my thread about a super clean low mileage UK zed? for those who do read on for those who don't click the link below http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=132407 Well having had among a lot of unseen upgrades the large calipers did mean new wheels were required and so we fitted a spanky set of 19" rims and tyres, getting a good deal on these at the moment.

I have evo 8 calipers and have been searching for some discs to buy. I have read that people who have had the evo calipers have gone with 350z discs, would the r34 disc fit with these calipers? Would like to fit some big 355mm aswell. Thanks, Ant

Hi all, need some advice. Went to start the card this morning, dash lit up but made clicking noise rather than turning over. Had a look under bonnet, made sure battery connected and tried again, same thing. So decided to try and jump start it. As I went to put the second lead on the Z, there was a flash of sparks and the headlights came on, alarm went off etc. Took all the leads off, and when I tried to start no lights on dash, nothing. Had a fiddle with the fuse box(s), and when I looked at the small one on the driver's side I moved the one closest to the wing (which has a large loop of wire on it). This got the car live again, but still no starting. …

well ive had if for a month or so. its now in bits but here are a few photos before and ill get some current ones andmy refurbed aloys

Saw you going towards Tunstall police station, just by The Wheatsheaf pub, i was in a pearl white one going the opposite way.

Hello All, I've just bought a 300zx 2+2 twin turbo on a J plate. It was imported in 2002 and is a 1992 car. I kinda bought it 'blind'. I've got no 300zx experience, I've owned a WRX impreza before - but nothing like this........the car came without any history and there are no stickers on the timing belt cover indicating a recent belt. The speedo is in MPH and the mileage shows 65k. Its fine on cold idle, warmed up and moving I'm having no dramas - but as soon as the engine is warm and I get stuck in traffic I'm getting worrying amounts of blue smoke. I've booked the car in for a cam belt brake, and oil service change but wondered if its a) a common problem, …

Red zed parked outside AVC mot testing in oxford business centre looked like standard tt(even had carrot indicators):lol:

As the title says! i think it is every 60K, am i right. Also do you change any other belts at the same time. I've got a receipt from the previous owner showing 'Belts (3 off)' could this be cam or something else? Thanks

Hi everyone. Does anyone know is the Jap speedo circuit board and the UK speedo circuit board are the same? Also how much would I be looking at paying for a Jap spec speedo cluster? Ivan

Following on from the bumpers following swage line thread, I was wondering if there are any sideskirts that goes with the standard '89 spec TT bumpers? All the ones I've seen so far seem to be made to match aftermarket bumpers.

Well... :punk:
