Hello all! Most of you probably won't remember me but I'm back! I Went over to the dark side and bought an SX (beautiful cars BTW). Now I'm here again, trying to get back into Z32 ownership. I hope I'm still welcome!

Hi all! Right, I want to get back in to Z32 ownership! If I'm In the wrong section please tell me. Mods, please don't close this straight away :)

Looks like a dude from the American Forum is making them! I think with a 99 front bumper this would really make the 300 look alot more modern! Im going to get a pair, i just hope he can reach get enough people so he will make them! Some Pics: Link to Original Post

Thanks :)

Im not to up on ECU and chips. I was wondering what I have to look for when getting one? I have forged internals, 740cc injectors, GT28R tubs. The reason I ask is BAZZ has a Socketed ECU and 740cc chip for sale and was wondering if this would be ok? Does the type of chip matter if running a AFC and dual intake with a dummy MAF? Thanks, Ant

You were parked in a car park near to dudley high street (by the bus station) at about 3.45 when i saw you. Standard but still looking nice!

Decided i am going to keep my aircon on my engine rebuild. This may sound a stupid question but part of the aircon pipe from the bulk head is wrapped in this protective wrap. Question is, have people left this on as i think it looks dirty? Does this pipe really get hot enough to need the protection? If its the case that it is needed what would be best to replace it with? Cheers, Ant

Hi guys. My car does not have bov`s. The pipes where they used to be as standard are blanked. Now as you see in the picture, I have two aditional injectors in the same place where most people would like to have their bov`s fittet. I am wondering if i can fit my bov`s in the same place as standard or on the tubes showed at the edge of the picture(aluminium ones). Thank you!

Something I've been thinking about doing next year as a project and a way of understanding how autos work. Anyway Jeff at Zedworld gave me a link to these people who do rebuild kits but also while I was looking noticed they do something similar to ESS with a shift-at-will kit.........I seem to remember a few people were looking at this sort of thing. http://www.importperformancetrans.com/inventory.cgi?action=description&item_id=s4Vk0lRiUcRbyFYCwsp7WnXWHjvJK4

What is the difference between series 1 and series 2 alternators ?

Hi guys! After my poor zed being left outside my garage for the last year or so I have decided against all common sense to have her done up!! It has suffered from good old UK sill rot (badly!) I was reluctant to spend a fortune & was toying with the idea of breaking it :sad: After all this time & still dont know what I would get to replace her I have ordered 2 new sills & end repair panel to repair the old girl. Stuck another battery out of my scrap battery box & she started straight up! :D So - new years project zed is up & running!!! :nana2::nana2::nana2: Have missed that dancing banana!! LOL!!

What a fooking joke to remove them its a piss take :gun_bandana::death::taz:

Hi. I want to become a member. What is the procedure? Thank`s

I'm not sure what to do with these... Do i keep and fit on the NSX? or do i sell? If i was to sell would anyone be interested? They are not the cheapest of wheels. They were made to order and took 6 months to arrive. They have never been driven on and will come with 5Zigen light weight locking wheel nuts, and i really do mean light weight :D They are the Blitz Type 03. Think they are 18x8 on the front and are 18x10 on the rear. They come with brand new tyres, never driven on. Toyo Proxies and i have got a 295 on the rear. They also come with Blitz Valve caps and Blitz Centre badges. These wheels are mega expensive. Think i paid…

Now the over heating seems to be sorted http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=133893 took the car on a 50 mile round trip. I'm pleased to say all went well and had a few good runs up the dual carriage way:scooter: although accelerating in third around 60-70 the tail end started to wander a little at one point :oops: The lag on the single turbo is a little annoying but think once it's running more than 11psi it will be less noticeable, the main problem is I keep running out of road before I get full power and forget 5th on full boost... I need a runway for that! Will try to get a video posted again this weekend.

Can anyone tell me what this pipe is and what it's used for please? Marked with green dots. Thanks, Ant

After trying various things to solve the over heating including, water wetter, bigger rad, 2nd fan, manifold lagging and heat deflector the car still ran to hot. Think I have now solved it with these two things, not what I wanted to do but I'd rather this than cooking the engine! What do you think?
