Going to start this thread for members to post up what they did each day to there zed. I will start with getting my MOT this morning. So what did you do today on your 300?:cool3:

So it begins. My 300zx has been in my garage for just over a year now but I hope to have it back on the road inside two weeks. Yesterday and today I have been geting it ready for mot and next Monday it will have the 120k timing belt kit installed. Happy days are round the corner :)

Around £550 mate. Most of it from Mike our trader here and the t belt, thermostat and the two hoses from a club member. The three auxiliary belts from e bay and the new cam cover bolts from CJ Tuning. Then there will be another few hundred pounds for the garage doing all the fitting.:)

The 300zx has only 63k on it so I could of got away with a new belt and a few other parts but there is a noise from one of the pullys so I am replacing all three of them and that has pumped the price up mate. So hold on to them kidney's :biggrin:

Well I'm going to make sure my new engine is good to go, so I'll change all the pulleys belts, filters and pumps before dropping it in, the old engine will hopefully be heading to Bristol for the Jimmer treatment when funds allow... probably next year!! So I'm going to have to spend similar if not more???

I bought something !

Nice one, interesting colour, is it more gold than yellow, or is it just the light it was taken in?

It's more yellow I think it's just the filter on the photo matey :-)

Well taken of old front pads and refitted new ones... Wasn't much Meat left only 2/3mm at best, good job I changed them when I did don't think they would of lasted long on the track? But should be better now with some new yellow stuff:)

Welded a tear in the N/S front wing, ground it down and skimmed it with high build spray filler.......... Ready for tomorrow, prepping for a touch of pant........ lol

Oh I got the nice new side skirts painted too........... :yes:

Started preparing the N/S/F wing for repainting too...... But need to remove skirting and realign the wing and door again to sort out the gap between them.....

Nicely done Russ. I think that's going to look so much the better once complete than before.

Richard:thumbup:

After collecting my Zed from the body shop last Friday, I decided I couldn't leave it in my garage any longer - and took it on hols to Cornwall......

 

.......We got back home this afternoon with another 1,000 happy miles covered. So it was a hoover and interior clean today, with a full wash and wax on the cards for tomorrow...:thumbup:

Taxed it!

 

Woo Hoo

After a year in the garage I drove my Z to http://www.snjmotors.co.uk/index3.html to get the 120k kit fitted tomorrow. I drove it very easy but man it was great to drive the Fairlady again

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fixed my hazard lights, gave her a good wash then went for a nice evening drive along the Wirral coast. I had a little help washing the zed.......
