Think it is the first i have seen around Canterbury/Folkestone way. Mybe the new boy thinks our Zs are washed out & under powered!(ah,ah!) Arthur

This new 350 in black (looked good) unfortunately was going in the other direction or I might have been tempted to LEAVE IT BEHIND!!! Sorry so childish Arthur

Penguin! good fun!! 319.9 best in 20 mins Arthur

I thought I had already said something about leather/cloth on uk models! My Z is uk TT 91, not a ringer, or two cars & all uk Zs are not leather! Arthur

Hope is not too bad, cars!! Zs!! Arthur

I agree with Paul in part! Get some whizzy things :hyper: Keep the auto!! Arthur

Second car v/good idea mine is a micra. Z is wide, too wide for me in my garage to open the door without it hitting wall & getting out comfortably. I push the targa top over, window down and climb out over the door! How stupid is that!! Arthur

91 UK TT AUTO! Never had an auto before my Z. Driving manuals cos it is fun changing up & down gears feels good! Always had the impression autos were "boring". Oh my god! how wrong can one get!!! Auto's? who friggin wants an auto there for old farts & grannies!! WELL my ZX auto is friggin GOOD I mean VERY GOOD!!! keep your manuals & if you like manuals get a manwell. Arthur

Ive got a question? I have a UK TT auto 91 with 132k miles. All past MOT's and two previous owners. I am really very impressed that imports have so little milage on them! I know the japs are smaller than us, so is Japan small too! I will look this up. Also I hear that there are restrictions on thier roads limiting their milage use per year? Are the garages like Z specialists out there? Or are they all NISSAN dealers! Why are imports all around 10 years old? Do they pass a yearly MOT after the 3 years or what! And who translates all this Japanese documentation for the potential buyers?? Just curious :rolleyes: Arthur

Other drivers give me more respect when I drive my Micra! Even my partner notices a difference when she drive the Z to her Citroen! Arthur

I have two books about super & sports cars. The Z is not mentioned which is very puzzeling! Arthur

Hi Richard I have an a/c belt not fitted yet the part No on it is 11920-F6501 My Z is a UK 91 auto TT Not sure this helps though! Arthur

Will check this out tommorow Eric Will check the manwell and get an idea of it! Arthur

cheers Ajay Arthur

Hi Eric No nothing. Where is the MAP sensor? Arthur

Ajay good luck with house move. Do you have a new address yet? I want to pay!! Arthur

Saw a blue one on Sunday, Folkestone/Hythe area, looked the dogs dangglies! Still like my Z though. Good luck with whatever. (cars!) Arthur

Having read the guide on buying a Z it appears my car has a problem! :( When I accelerate the boost guage blips to -3 then goes up to +9 (normal) I did this about 20 times on the Mway yesterday and I got the same thing. On idle the needle sits at 0! When I take my foot off the accelerater after boost the guage reads -5 and the goes back to 0! remains at 0 on normal driving, again on acceleration the guage blips to - then to +psi. My engine runs smooth with no whines or funny noises, no smoke, no turbo noises, starts first time, oil pressure +50 running to +15 at idle. The guide says Ive got a problem! :( :( Engine replaced in Aug 03. I have had no problems with engine. Can someone give me a clue please. Arthur

Sorry Mark posted my problem on wrong thread (yours) I will try again! Arthur

Hi Wootley I live in folkestone Ive own a Z for nearly three years If you want a chat we could meet up. UK TT 91 standard Auto. Arthur

Hi hope someone can help! TURBO'S-having read the Z buying guide! I appear, sorry the car appears to have a problem! When I boost, boost reads 9psi no doubts, done this over 20x today to check. However on idle my gauge remains on 0!! When I accelerate the gauge go's to -3, well blips to the minus side then go's to +9psi. This happens every time. There are no signs of any, I mean any engine problems! It runs smooth, it idle's smooth, the temp is normal, the oil pressure is normal. WTF is going on! Car is UK TT standard. engine replaced last Aug 03. There are no, repeat No! whistling or whining sounds from turbos, no smoke, no smells, nothing! I do like my Z. First time out in two weeks!!!! :) Arthur

300zx org.uk give oil capacties as; Year 90 NA 4.3/8 w/f & 3.7/8 w/o filter Year 91-96 3.5/8 w/f & 3.1/8 w/o filter same in both NA & TT I did an oil change last month & bought 5L of synthetic & used as much as to fill the engine to the correct mark on the dip stick! Thats not rocket science! Oil filters, now then? Any more views on this! Arthur

Got my Continentals from mytyres on front & rear They have never let go in wet conditions Good price too. I think most tyres are ok, there are other factors to consider. Keep in mind that you have loads of power to deliver with the Z! Use or abuse. Tyres have thier limits too abit like drivers! Would not buy economy tyres though. Arthur

Vince, sorry to hear. not a good time. Arthur

Very nice colour Not had my Z out for two weeks now! but its coming out next time its dry!
