sorry guys not been of for a while, been, working constantly, to cover getting married again, but that was last week, and all good now, the zed is back on the road, after 2 years off, re doing all the welding and sills. but not bad only got one advisory (noisy exhaust), i need to get back into things, but all is good nice to see some regular names are still around stu

hi wayne, nice to see another zed in west sussex, im just outside worthing, any advice you need im more than happy to help stu

hi mate, nice to see another zed on the south coast, looks tidy too, welcome

terry cant believe its the same car, looks amazing mate, mine got the all clear yesterday, one advisory....noisy exhaust lol

lol happy days. yep it was jimmer who peed off the security, that was a good day, never seen so many zeds crammed into the car park at virgina water.

the last time my UK tt was allowed on the road, was febuary 2011. this is the last time i was driven. Over the nearly 2 years, ive replaced all sills, fixed any problems, revamped the interior, and basically tidied everything up. I got rid of the high level spoiler, horrid veilside skirts, and crap front end. All now replaced with brand new 89 spec spoiler, new smooth side skirts, and a replacement original tt bumper. wanting to get the zed back to original look, just with decent wheels and a bit lower. Today i took her for the mot, after a fairly quick drive, in order to clean the brake discs of rust and try as best to get emissions down due to having a full japseed decat system. The test started, as i stood there with my fingers crossed, smoking ciggies. All looked to be going okay, until i walked to the shop to get a drink. On my return, i walked towards my mot friend, and he looked at me shaking his head, i thought "crap its failed, hasnt it" well i asked, he replied i thought it was going to be perfect but i had to give just one advisory.... Exhaust noisy...................... pmsl exhaust noisy, thats due to having the japspeed system. He then said, very nice and tidy, before i give you the certificate, can i take it down the road. lol go for it, off he went and it was very clear yep it has a noisy exhaust. Couple of mins later, he returns, gets out of the car and smiling, hands me the keys and says "wow, thats a lunatic, look after it" To say im very chuffed is an understatement. All the hard work done by myself to get one advisory, Zed is back on the road baby stu

wow looks been on holiday in Beirut or Cairo, shame to see a black zed like that, should be looked after (no offence to anyone from Beirut or Cairo)

It wasnt me, but i did see you, i was in traffic and the car in front let you turn right as i was waving and flashing my lights, i was in a transit, just outside the nick (where the camera van parks up) i turned left to follow you, but guess you were headed home

looking good mate, is it a tidy shell then?? hope so.....

One of the guys on facebook has found this for sale 1996 na zed with 145 miles on the clock, yes 145 from new. Nice to see a perfect zed in pristine condition shame its not over here http://www.diamondmotorworks.com/detail-1996-nissan-300zx-2dr_cpe_2_plus_2_manual_w_slash_t~bar-used-10512808.html

terry its looking great bud,

A the info you need is here mate. http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/forumdisplay.php?41-Club-Membership-and-Enquiries Once done, put up a thread saying you have subbed, and gary will sort the rest out. All this time and you havent subbed yet. better late than never, the benefits will easily pay for themselves, as the info would cost more. Any probs just post up a thread. stu - - - Updated - - - lol, see thats how on the ball we are, as i was typing it all, gary's way ahead of me.

jeff all i can say is well done mate, your very helpfull, a true credit to the club. enjoy yourself, but keep in touch, to, the new guys, hope it all goes great for you, im sure you will have no probs, you know were here for you. Not the end of an era, more of a turning the page stu

pmsl a bit scary, have done this, but not with a glove and not intentionally, dropped my spanner down the side and thought i could get it without hitting the blades, should have turned the engine off first. wow never seen knuckle skin be removed so fast., but i did move the spanner, onto the even faster moving air con belt, the zed decided, it didnt like that, and shot it back at me just for good measure, missed my head by 1cm and landed in next doors garden. Cheers for replys guys, will monitor it

Hi mate, how is your build coming along,? i pretty sure my viscous is very good, as thats i how killed my last engine, my current one will let you spin it, but there is a fair bit of resistance if that makes sense, as my old one, you could spin it and it would keep going.

Took mine out for a little run prior to mot later this week, when i got home i noticed very slight smoke coming out of the gap around bonnet, opened it up, where it has been sitting for so long (2 years) has a tiny leak from the cam cover at the back which has dripped onto the turbo manifold. Back to the thread, sorry i noticed how hot the engine was, checked all pipes top and bottom hoses, rad and temperature is as it should be. heater inside blows nice and warm on full temp, and instantly goes icey cold when turned down. So no air locks there. left it on tick over and after 15 mins, sub fan kicked in, a few seconds later it stopped. engine sounds great and very smooth. kept checking for everything for the next 1/2 hour, all good. Do zed engines run hot, is this normal? i can still touch the plenium, but my hands are like asbestos being a plumber It was a spirited drive i must add, needed to check all was good and to clean the rust of the brakes, after such a long time of not being driven Have checked it all just now, engine is cold, rad level is the same, and expansion bottle is fine. Am i getting paranoid or are they like this all the time

Have no probs with your needing the spec for the zed, but as a regi user, in order to offer for sale or to sell you need to be a subbed member mate. Will leave as is at the moment, but any mention of sales and it will be closed instantly. Any problems with this please let me know. Stu

jimmer how did you get on at gigantica, any pb's broken.??
