Just out of curiousity,as I can´t really find that much about them online, but am I reading it right that the; 1993 Nissan 300 Bambu and the Nissan 300 Seta are both Zagato bodied 300zx TT´s ? cheers Maz :)

Anybody had any experience with the Bluetooth enabled A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) phone and head unit for in-car entertainment? I've got a HTC Touch Diamond at the moment which I believe is A2DP capable, so just wondering if any one is familiar with how it performs / how it operates. Like, do you first transfer the music from phone to head unit? Or can it stream? Can you control the phone's playlist via the head unit? Or does this also require support for AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile)? Would also like a head unit with USB Type A female input or a Mini-USB Type B male output so I could charge me phone at the same time, if thats even p…

Suspension setup?......, after fitting my coilovers and adjustable bits and bobs I have been trying to find a local place who can set up the f&r camber & toe for my car, without success. Anyone have any recommendations in the Hampshire area. H.

Hi all, My 300ZX has a minor oil burning problem but I don't know from where! If she is started, taken for a run straight away and isn't in stop/start traffic, there is no problem. But if she is left on tickover from cold start, or is in slow stop/start traffic from start, inevitably I get an embarrassing plume of white smoke emitted from the exhaust! Seems to only be from one side too... I've recently had the 2 filters in the front wings replaced, the PCVs were done about 7K miles go so it shouldn't be them, and I'm assuming the mechanics put the right oil in when it last had an oil and filter change (about 1500 miles ago). Also it isn't smoking …

240z i just seen on pistonheads. If only i had £10k! http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1506995.htm

Right, loving the 300 power.. but there's one thing that nags me. It doesn't feel as fast as it is. Some cars like evo's type R's etc FEEL fast even if they aren't hugely quick. I understand a bigger turbo (perhaps a T28) would result in a bit of lag then a kick in the kaboose, but is there any other way of getting that? Will jumping the PSI from stock to 15 result in the same effect? Passangers get bored despite me being good at getting the back out around corners

Need some more help and advice lol! One more thing on my list of parts I want to buy for my zed is new hoses. Now for some reason im liking the idea of having the signature purple Do-Luck hoses. Am I right in thinking only the one hose fits from a twin turbo? You can get just standard hoses 3m or 4m in purple for water etc so thats all right. I had a look on smithys place to see if you can get a matching brake booster hoses but there not available in purple. Is there any where else I can try? Or should I just pick a different colour to make it easy lol!

Wondered if anyone interested in a K reg.swb slicktop shell or serious parts from one? Have first refusal on a full zed Non turbo with just a broken auto box, can sell as whole car ( just needs an auto box) or may part out if enough interest. Thanks Jeff

I got the lambo doors system from luke,it used to work just fine but i didnt use the car for almost a year or so. When i try to take her out for a spin and try to open the doors, the doors drop a little bit and the shocks dont work now, any help on how can i fix it! thanks

have all the stuff I need knocking around. Is it worth doing and where are all the ground points I need? Any pics?

Just had a dividend payment and looking to spend it on the zeds brakes as mine are currently standard (pants). I don't really want to spend anymore than £700-1k because I would also like an EBC and to have it remapped.

As title, was it you? Looked a nice example with nice alloys.

I`m thinking of buying an engine stand, would this be suitable for our z engine? Thanks in advance. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ENGINE-GEAROX-STAND-350KG-ES350-SEALEY-FREEPOST-NEW_W0QQitemZ190369750238QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_3?hash=item2c52ebdcde

hi, im currently fitting a tailgate skin, just got it bonded to the car and although i thought i new what filler i was going to use, im now having second thoughts. i was going to use U-POL easy one http://www.u-pol.com/product-cat/89/easy-one%C2%AE-super-easy-sanding-lightweight-body-filler.htm but im worried it will crack when the tailgate flexes any comments or sugestions greatly apreciated cheers si

Guys have a nice shiney pot from slick Pete, question is can I just clamp off the pipes and remove the old pot and replace with the new one? Will I need to do anything else, apart from top up the fluid when done ? cheers H.

I have a Clifford Concept 650 and want to disconnect the battery will I have to put the alarm in to valet mode to do this or can I just disconnect it with out the alarm going off? :confused1:

I know there are a few threads about this and i have looked about but unsure to no if i did anything wrong recently after my minor blow out. in the pic attached i used the jack from the boot and used the sill to lift the car is that the correct way to do it , some say that sill jacking is a big no no and some says its ok its factory recomend, im kinda guessing the thread may go the same way, but more looking for a answer to if i may have done any damge that isnt noticed now or am i just being paranoid

Hi, dunno if this is the right place for it, but just wondering if someone could pass this message on to Rev1Ritchie as I'm after his email address..... Thanks...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250579519944&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:GB:1123 I think something has been posted about this before but i emailed the guy to see where he is getting the power from and why does he not list what mods the engine has had done and this is the response i got Come down & if it hasn't got 450 I will give you £1000 in cash. Are you a zedder looking to buy or just being nosey? So i said that people in forum take interest in zeds on ebay and adverts that claim bhp but no real write up as to how it gets it and what a surprise reply I dont give a monkeys about forums. I have a print out so like I sa…
