Leaving at about 5 yesterday - Black lwb with aftermarket kit and black/polished alloys!

I think i know the answer to this one silver zed last night in Lincoln along south park i was parked up by the suzuki garage

Took zed out yesterday for a blast. Not been out in it for a while due to work, bikes etc.... forgot just how much I love that car!! :) Gonna get myself a DA Polisher I think and try and get paintwork buffed up. Then Im gonna set meself the task of cleaning engine bay over winter....

Hi guys, I have just fitted a Kakimoto system, and found a very large hole in 1 of the cats, it sounds awsome now and there is a great improvement in performance, Can anyone tell me if i remove the cats will it pass the mot? it is a 1990 tt/ Cheerz Chris

Me Again!! There may well be a thread on here about this already but I really can't find it! Can anyone explain the fundemental differences between an S1 S2 S3 and S4 z32 TT LWB and can anyone tell me how I can identify which one I have (92 on a J plate if that is a help) I keep seeing cars being broken for parts and never know if they will fit mine or not so this simple piece of info could save me a flippin fortune!! :headvswal

Dont know why just love them. Love to get some oneday on my zed, has anyone got any fitted to there 300? Or do you think just a waste of money.

anyone got them on your cars , im thinking about getting some , but a PD1 which is like a strip and not small sensors, the reason for it is that my bodykit front bumper its just to low for the uk curb so the lip hits the curb every time , im getting better but my arse sticks out all the time , so this is another way round

Car arrived on a flatbed at 5pm friday night no tax or Mot so thought id throw her in for a pre MOT to see what work needed doing and feck me she passed first time no minors RESULT!! been grinning like a cheshire cat all day. 2 years out of the fold and now im back WOOHHOOOO. :dance::dance: full service and a good wash tomorrow and ill post pics.

Hi all, I have used my Z for the drive to-from work twice this week; each time I returned home in the dark...... ..............and I have to say that fitting HIDs is definitely the BEST simple upgrade everyone should do to a 300zx. I drove home on twisty country B-roads at 55-65mph and didn't need full beam once! Upgrade your headlights - it's best £100 you'll spend on your Z:hyper: Richard:)

why is the handbrake on the worng side, and the ash try

Ok here is little fun for all., check out the photo`s below, back in December 2005 I posted a couple of pics of the cambelts changed that year, and as you will see I even wondered what 2006 would bring. now for anyone who does not know, I have kept every single 300zx cambelt we have changed, each one is dated and the reg of the car added also, may seem odd I know but it works well with our admin and photographic records and provides a trail source of our work and assists members and new owners. POSTED 23-12-2005 For anyone remotely interested what 155 old 300zx cambelts look like, there you are, our tally for the year Wonder how many 2006 will bring Happy Holid…

Mine is, so lets show how reliable the Zed is. :dance: Richard you inspired this question on a previous thread lol

Does anyone have the exact outer dimensions of both the LWB and the SWB please? Length is the key as I've just measured the garage and found that it is exactly 4 1/2 meters long which I think is too small for a LWB :( ...

Can anyone contact Chris outside of this forum, and ask him to ring me, my numbers in his Private Message which he has not yet read. Or get him to ring me on my mob, 07961278863 Thanks Rich

Hi Guys, I currently have stock 16" wheels, discs and brakes on my TT LWB and want to upgrade to a good fast road set up (though be aware I am pretty hard on my brakes). I want a set up with decent "cold" performance rather than feeling like I am braking with two blocks of butter when cold and also that doesn't wear like a bitch!!! Jamie at Zedworld had recommended new EBC rotors and Mintex Extreme pads to fit my standard rims but I was also looking at going up to 18"'s - would that open up the opportunity of using bigger discs? If so what would be the best/biggest I could fit with 18" rims and is there a way of still using my stock callipers (don't have the mon…

After asking for advice on here I decided to take my car to zxtereme for a service. The car is sounding so much beter now. I just wish I had done it sooner. These cars rock!!!!

If you've put in place a push button start, have you got any gotch'a, Tips, tricks of the trade etc ... that could help. I'd be very grateful. thanks Rich

Another one of those interesting dealer mistakes that have been sadly common over the years and given owners less and less faith in main dealer workshops. The zed in question is from Norway and has been to us previously ( last year ) that previous visit was prompted by the Nissan dealer who after changing the cambelt been unable to set the timing correctly? In fact following the belt change the owner had tried several garages in both Norway and Germany to resolve the errant timing problem that was causing poor performance and using excessive fuel. An Internet search brought him to us and we quickly identified a faulty cas unit that was retarding on acceler…

Well i finally got round to doing my heater matrix yesterday,well i say i, wot i mean is my mate, i just passed the tools,so i think i did do my bit :D any way wot a job took us all day from 8 to 4.30,decided to do the option of not taking out the dash which i think was the right one to make.but let me tell you this it is a c--t of a job to do,you have to have hands like mr strech but the size of a child,and be able to work upside down for most of the day,but in the end its in and working fine :smash::dance: so wot i would say to anyone else who is going to attempt this GOOD LUCK and make sure you have someone with you who has a GOOD knowledge of mechanics.

Reading through some of the threads and wondering....Why are zx s common for the head gasket going? Does the head end up getting porus thus the cause?

The car is a 1990 auto tt and when cold it fires up OK, runs correctly and warms up to temp. However when pulling awayin normal auto mode there is a lot of vibration through the car as the gearbox tries to make the first change up. It feels like the oil is thick or the mountings are worn. When the car has covered about 5 miles all this disappears and the box changes as it should. Any thoughts?

What spark plugs are the best option for a TT because they are now due for a change? Christian

Hi all, After loosing or throwing my water and return feeds to the turbos, ive came up with this idea do you think it would work???

Do you think i will have any problems?? Cheers Dan
