Im sure many know of AshSPEC history - Great Z Products, poor Customer service. Well, looks like thats changed, for the good. http://www.300zxclub.com/showthread.php?t=165795 Might be a good time to start thinking about some Group Buys. There was a lot of interest in the Rad and Fan setup last time. AshSPEC http://ashspecz.com/

Just a quick question I have a 1990 n/a 300zx, what power steering fluid do I need? Going 2 be popping down to halfords soon. Thanks.

Took the plunge and went for a set of Kosei 18" 3-piece Split rims from Japan. Wont be to everyone's taste but they ticked some important points for me - Low Weight (7.7kg), Manufacturing Quality and a big fat lip :) F 18 x 8.5J offset +29mm R 18 x 9.5J offset +37mm Will tinker with the offset for an aggressive stance. Got a bit of a wait though....Going to take 4-6 weeks to arrive by Ship from Japan :glare:

Hi guys, does anyone have the part number for the above item? I`m off to Nissan tommorrow to get this part, and Nissan counter service is very poor, so i need to go armed, so i get the right thing.:yes: Thanko mucho Daz

H!:nuke: I hope you lot may be able to help me? My battery went flat and I boosted it of my mates jump pack. I let her run til warm then set off. I woudn't rev over 2500 rpm .Its an Auto box,import so tried all the 'box modes but none of them changed the rpm limit. Took her for about a 3 mile drive but still the same. I have to point out that when I moved it last night, when I switched it off it kind of , felt like back pressure or something as the engine lurched , I guess thats the best way to explain it. It starts fine,and runs up to 2500rpm as normal, is it a problem with the air mass meter? and where is it on these :censored:cars?

Hi im new on here but my wife joined a while ago. se had a 91 Z32 TT and here clutch is shot. What is the best replacement clutch for good money? Is the OEM ones worth it or should i uprate it? Finally where is best to get them from Thanks

Hi all Just wondered if anyone can identify the following models: 300ZX BM7890 HZ32000178 300ZX KE8888 GCZ32516695 300ZX BF5555 H231300003 300ZX KE9999 GCZ3516782 300ZX KE8575 JN10RGZ32U0001939 300ZX BM700 HZ32-000085 300ZX KC1953 JN10RGZ32U0002036 I think the one with chassis starting GCZ32 is a TT like ours but the others ? GCZ35 ? HZ32 ? Are those starting JN10R something to do with the Japanese tuner Jun ? In case of doubt this was extracted from the Brunei listing - was dreaming of finding oil under my garden !! Cheers Mark

Reet, here goes, she's had a new loom, used but working PTU, mostly every pipe changed, new IC,intake pipes, new plugs, any many more things, i think the only things not changed are the CAS and TPS.... The problem is, she runs beautifully, revs as sweet as a nut, ticks over a little fast tho, sometimes, but if i rev her, a good foot down rev (whilst stationary), then sometimes it seems to return to tickover, but sounds like she's running on 5 cylinders, also when driving, there is no low end torque, but when you slowly get to about 3500 revs she shoots off like a rocket, although maybe not as fast as she should be, ecu diagnostic comes back 55 99% of the time, but ve…

No idea how to set up a poll but wonder what %age of posters on here actually spend more time on this forum than either driving or 'attending to' their Zed. I guess the vast majority are on here more than behind the wheel!

Looking to get a new ally rad. would the standard shroud fit over it and not foul the fan ?? The brackets on the too would not be an issue. i would have some made up.

One of my front speakers is all buzzy and rattly on tunes with lots of bass. I guess I should replace them. Anyone know what sort will fit? I just want reasonable ones, nothing too fancy. Thanks in advance.

The temperature gauge on my 300 always seems to read/sit close to maximum. Although I haven't had any cooling issues so far, some how I'm sure the gauge shouldn't read quite so high. Can anyone advice what may be the cause and possible cure for this?? Thanks

Hi Guys, I am looking for the plastic insert that fits above the rear lights after the wing is removed can any one please point me in the right direction.

Hi, I’m hopefully going to buy a 300zx that’s in amazing condition. I’m just after some reassurance regarding the rust issue. I have been reading some threads regarding the common rust on the rear and although this car has none it has me wondering. I know you only hear of the cars that have problems and no one ever posts, “my car has no rust”. Please someone reassure me that a well looked after Z will not end up rusting. Do these cars rust form the inside out, so a car can look great from the outside but be eating itself on the inside? This happened to a family members Trooper, we only found out about the rust when the mot guy put his hand through t…

obviously by the title this is not good for any zed! but i have kinda identified the problem, there are wiring looms and wires with connecters at the back of the engine bay on top, if you look on your car you will see(il upload pics tmrw) but anyway when i try to accelerate hard or open the taps a bit the car just jumps then dies! i roll to a stop and sometimes i can restart it but sometimes i have to leave it overnight and it will start in the morning! (wierd) but anyway when i move these wires and jiggle them around the idle sound and speed changes, and when the car doesnt start completly il get sombody to fiddle with those wires while i turn the ignition and it will us…

A massive thanks to Trick82 (Richard) for posting my BC Street and Circuit Coilover suspension kit in super fast time!!

Well, ive just been out with the wife in the Zed for the first time in 2 months. Fair weather zed:wink: I tell you something...the Germans haven't a clue when we pull up at the lights!!!:w00t: Fookin great.......i love this car!!!!

I recently purchased the fast and furious box set. Been watching them all and other car films i have and why is it the 300zx doesnt seem to feature in these, is it becasue you dont see it much at drifiting tracks or is it just becoming a forgotten car, or is it because it will show them all up.

Any have the easy version of the intallation photo guide for a right hand drive car. Looked on FAQ but there no help Thanks

I'm looking for some advice being a newbie to the world of 300zx's. I want to get a bit more power from my car so am looking at raising the boost, fitting a decent exhaust and decat, and some decent airfilters. My question is, is it worth going for a whole new ECU from the likes of MINES? I've been offered the choice of a few different ECUs, a MINES VX ROM, Tomei, Jun and Racing Garage. Apparently they are all design to be run with stock injectors and intercoolers, uprated exhausts and air filters. Has anyone had any experience with any of these? With the ECU, exhaust and air filters, would that be all I need to get it to a "stage 1", if there is such a thing?
