£50K 1989 Jag
Maybe the owner just liked the old style badges; to complement the "classic car" look..... .....I once bought an older style RAC and AA badge for the front grill of my 1973 XJ-6. I never fitted them though, as I offloaded the car not long after! Hmmm - perhaps I should dig them out and see what they'll go for on Fleabay....... Richard:chef:

Spoiler Sticker
Yup - MJP is your best bet. I paid £8.94 plus VAT back in September for mine! Hi Chris - yes; for UK spes cars! I think on J-spec the stock left one says "Fairlady Z" Personally I left off the left sticker - just to keep the uninitiated guessing!! Richard:yes:

Finally bought a 300zx! Please look at pics!
Hi Henry! Welcome to the club. I reckon that's a tidey car you have just purchased - good luck with your new toy! As for improvements; looks wise less is more IMO. These cars were just right as they came out of the factory; so the best modifications are subtle updates. Like clear side repeaters; 1999-spec rear lights and a new set of alloys. That's it - aside from maybe a 1999-spec front bumper nothing else is needed! Performance wise you can do small upgrades like air filter and exhaust; through to a re-chip and turbo upgrades. It depends how fast you want it and how much you want to spend. But forget the dump valves - pointless IMO! Richard:chef:

What REALLY grinds your gears?
A lot of things can annoy me as I've become more of a miserable b@stard the older I've become (LOL - Julia has lots more to look forward to.....); however I can find a way to rise above most of them. Yes, old gits who crawl along our roads at 20 below the speed limit are annoying. But as I have fast cars, I just overtake them and don't get stressed! Yes, chavs also irritate me. Luckily I live in a nice area so I can get away from them; but when I do go into places like High Wycombe or Aylesbury I relieve the annoyance by laughing at them........! And then there are the chav types who think that speaking like Ali G is "cool!" especially in the East End. A good old fashioned cockney accent can have its charm but this modern "street-speak?" Oh please!!! GROW UP FFS!! But again I seek solace by laughing at them; and suddenly the urge to ram a dustbin down their throat gently subsides........ However on the road I fear that poor parking really boils my piss. As I'm obsessive about my cars, I hate the thought that some careless twat will open their door onto mine and scuff or dent a panel. Especially as parking bays are not as wide as they should be. Consequently I try to park in an "end" bay miles from the entrance of the supermarket/m-way service station etc etc..... .....Yet whenever I return to my car, I can almost guarantee that there will be a badly parked Galaxy/Zafira/Scenic etc etc next to me. And I just know that the owner's rancid brood will have nonchalantly flung their door open with scant regard to my car parked next to them. For that matter, I hate MPVs in general - mainly because their drivers are ususally the most self absorbed morons who, typical of modern society, have little regard for anyone else and think the sun shines out of their little brats' arses......:wacko: Sorry - rant over. Deep breaths, peace and love to all........ Richard:flowers:

Just some Clarification on Front brake upgrade
That's so true...... ......I drove the 11k (yes; eleven for those who never saw the original thread) mile 300zx that Phil now owns and I have to say the brakes on that are awesome!! My SLK has superb brakes like most modern German cars, but driving that "Collectors Z" back to back with it, I cannot describe how impressed I was with the way the ZX stopped. Richard:online2long:
