Last Sunday out on M20 going Fast! Spotted police car! slowed down. this allowed others to catch & overtake me. A boy driving with his dad had one of those mobile fones with a built in camera, as dad over took, boy starts taking foto's of car! lol! Police car pulled off M way, bye, bye, all other cars!! Good drive Sunday! :dance: REAL GOOD :dance: :dance:

Oh my god! did I say suttle It should read subtle! Too late!

Oh I thought it suttle. But funny! Arthur

There's no need for targa's in Fife! You only need targa's south of the boarder where the sun shines! Leather standard on UK? NO! an option or extra I think they call it now. Forgot about soft tops! Fog lights, Hicas,auto climate control,o/d,headlight washers,folding mirrors,electric seats. No, I dont think I got everything? Arthur

Sorry Matt, a bit vague. I have ordered one off a firm in the midlands. they said it was going to be delivered last Tues then this Tues! Did not want to give you thier number if the spoiler is naf. Mine is a standard one with a crack & bubbles. Im paying £50 for it. So if Marks is offering one at £30 in vgc I would take it. Arthur

If I get my one delivered this afternoon & its 100%, I will post you their tele no! Arthur

Dont they polish up the alloy's with the use of a drill? Did I not see something like this on the Twin Turbo forum? Arthur

Keep the jokes coming! Arthur

Andy I have owned Audi & VW passat 17 years. I would say VW estate is a good solid German workhorse & easy to work on with spares available. Just my two penny worth! Arthur

Hi Jon See if I can get the ball rolling for you! You could do a search for uk/jap spec or go to http://www.300zx.org.uk. The V6 I think is a reliable engine, easy to upgrade, thats why the guys like um! All UK Z's are TT, Jap ones TT or N/A. UK Z's have larger rear wheels than front. Japs come with generally higher specs. I think all Z's have targa's. There is a SW model too. If u buy an N/A, no I wont go that way! (TT or N/A) Have u driven one? Arthur

Now that depends on you! Is it a big upgrade job or a normal replacement job! I replaced the whole lot! Got a replacement TT engine from a firm in Hythe Kent who deal in Jap engines. You could do a half engine replacement. If you are doing alot of the work yourself your cost could be halved. Arthur

Yep the badge has two pins at the back. The idea was to replace the front Nissan badge to a Z badged front. I like the Z on the front. With my Z being a uk model it has the nissan logo on the front.

Ok then! Badge is off! The stuff they use is like rubber glue! The primer as most said is white. Great! I will take the RED primer back to Halfords Got my wet & dry sorted, will start soon. Arthur

Hi Scotty Is this a poblem with the engine running & car still? If so it could be your bonnet catch! That's what my squeak was! Sorry if not that. Arthur

Hi Jay I think you put a Q on Stubb's thread, about splashguards? Yes, they shield the engine & rad underneath, also there are thee parts, drivers/passenger splash guards to. With the Z so low they do get scratched alot! Arthur

I have PIAA's, fitted them last year definatley brighter! Arthur

Sorry to see you have an engine problem! I spun a shell last year! U can drop the sump & ave a look. Thats what they did on my Z. I'm no mechanic! There are different ways as you possibly know, of fixing or replacing bits. Half engines are cheap too. Arthur

SUNDAY :confused: So got Z out ;) Went for a drive :D Up the a A20 to Leeds Castle & down the M20 :D :D Back now Z away in garage :( Arthur

Ryan, as you knowI am about to do my matrix, and the front bit with Z thingy on and paint it red from black! and waiting for rear spoiler to arrive this Tuesday. house carpets arriving Sat morning at 9am! think I will leave seat belts for time being!!!! lol lol!

Thanx all, for the tips feel I can get going on this now. James, cheers for that give me address 4 p&p. Its Fri & I am off home! Arthur

Hi James did you get my address about the matrix? Thanx for the info on the badge (I like the Z better than NISSAN!) I have seen these metal pins at the back. Will get started with WD40 and scraper. Nigel I like black too! :D

I dont think they would stop you getting a whiplash injury, be it the inertia type or harness type. Just a thought. Arthur

I have just purchased a Black front bit, that front bit between the headlights. The bit with NISSAN or Z on it! My Z is RED doh! Want to a) spray it red, what undercoat colour do I use? b)how do you get the Z badge off the front bit, without braking anything! Arthur

So, this must be a subjective diagnostic ? Arthur

Never heard of this! Is it in the hand book? Arthur
