I am over the moon just bought a set of rear lights and a the middle reverse lights, in very good condition for a bargain £50 mine were cracked to hell. Mark :-)

hi my jap 300zx auto goes in to 3rd then wont cog, or just doesnt go in to 3rd at all, just revs high and doesnt pull, any ideas?

Gave the car a polish yesterday and needed some new photos for my rides section, so i thought i'd post some. Got these skirts nice and cheap from CarMad i think they set it off nicely, need to pull my finger out and do the rear bumper to match. I've replaced the tweed interior and the seats, and i think she's looking lovely. Only a few more bits to go, like a nice front bumper and some nice 18" wheels.

I just can't seem to get the small (I think) injector connectors off. Anybody any hints?. Just need these off then its nearly engine out time. see pic for location the small ones next to the coil pack plugs which I did manage to get off :saddam: cheers Sorry taken with iphone (crap phone cam)

Hi I dont want to put this thread in the Wanted section cos its not really I just wanted to know if anyone has been lucky enough to buy second hand,items such as 99 spec rear lights,unorthadox pullys etc. I really want these things but just cant afford them yet. I suppose im looking for someone who bought all the stuff to fit then had their car written off or stolen or just changed their minds. Ive never been lucky like this and just wondered if anyone else had been. What have you "dropped on" for?

My zed is always clean and i mean clean. Its does not come out in rain, snow etc etc, but today i thought sod it im going to have some fun and instead of driving it at posing speeds and babying it i gave it the beans on the damp roads. All i can say is BIG smiles and power slides, half a tank gone but worth it. Its about time i gave it a thrashing and the zed proved how easy it is to handle. :tt1:I LOVE MY ZED:tt1: Problem now is cleaning it lol

i quite like the car, not many pics but i like it http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1491524.htm

Hi all I have a long term fault on my 95 Z auto import, sometimes it will not change into 4th gear (overdrive) but first, second are ok and sometimes has stuck in second gear, other times it runs just fine, does not seem to be temperature related, Does anyone have any useful information? Thanks, John.

Who has fitted one of these carbon / wood dash kits ? Any good, any pics anyone ?

I am about to remove my manual box but I have it in my head that a few years ago when I was goin through a cluch changing phase (fitted gearbox on and off about 4 times due to different clutch issues) I never drained the oil but yet removed all lines. I did do a gearbox oil change but only when happy with clutch. Can I remove the box without draining? I do expect a bit of spillage when the bottom line is removed. Think I'm loosing it. :pinch:

This colour is taking over my life!!!!:ohmy:

could you please email me at znut@300zx.co.uk and leave your contact details...... cheers

Just seen this on tv, and my son says there is a zed in it, I didnt see it at first, but yep there is one. Blue, parked right out side the club Only very briefly,but if you play it from 2.35 its there at 2.43. Good spot my boy.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmN36_K8RhU&feature=related

Hi, If I decide to put a tt engine in my n/a will it fit straight in or is the bulkheads ect different? Thanks Mark

ive just upped the boost on 91 auto and every time i accelerate or over take it drops down and the tail end keeps spining out, i have a few mods (decat down pipes, mongoos system,hks filter,impul high power ecu and boost upped to 14psi). i have 255 conental sport contact 2 tyres on 17s and standard shocks and elbich springs. i hear a better suspension set up can give you more traction? any ideas? its a bit dangerous:lol:

I know the title doesn't really narrow it down, spotted a White zed outside a pub in Forest Row, Highgate?!

Would it be best to put on my PAS pump and alt. before the engine goes back in or is it easy when the engine is in?

Saw you I was going clockwise, wash your car Dude! UK spec Lwb, in the Fast lane!:scared:

ive been told my cars had tt calipers fitted its an ,na,anyway to confirm this.

mine went out long time ago not wired up correctly with invertors,has anyone managed to find an alternative?

Yes! I know it's been a long while since I've been on the site. If I'm honest, once the car went last August it just didn't feel right some how. I ended up getting buried in work to take my mind off the fact that I actually let my car go. Anyway, It's great to see the site still going strong. Noticed quite a few of our old members have also sold their cars recently. I hope to meet up with some of my old North East mates through the summer. Might even bum a lift to JAE '10 for the day in the summer to catch up.

Mate of mine spotted a red TT zed with high level spoiler last week filling up at BP garage in Basildon, anyone??? He ran up to it thinking it was me but mine's still off the road.:lol:

A while ago, there were a number of posts suggesting that some of you were going to paint the sections that go across the roof (either side of the glass panels) glossy black. Did anyone actually do this and do you have photos of what the car looks like with these painted black, both with the panels in and out?
