Wheel colours, opinions please.
Similar colour and same b/k to yours with silver wheels. Silver (or shade of) would compliment your f/r lights and black bbk calipers. Having said that hellraiser's zed is red with similar wheels to yours also in white and was selected by members of the public at the recent Beaulieu Simply Japanese as one of the 16 cars for the final judging...

rattling zed,
If you come over to South Croydon I'll plug in my ConZult and switch on/off the VTCs.

Where do you get 1.3 ltrs from?- Diff oil
Either, the differences are the volumes required.- Diff oil
From the FSM: http://www.300zx.co.uk/tech/manual/manual/ma/010.gif http://www.300zx.co.uk/tech/manual/manual/ma/011.gif I use Redline 75W90 Differential Oil.- Spotted this weird car today but what is it?
- Hid lights
Yes, this is the method I used: http://www.zcar-owners.net/cgi-bin/diy_bbs/cbbs.cgi?mode=al2&namber=25&rev=&no=0 It makes an amazing difference and avoids having to split the headlights. You can also clean the rear of the projector lens using the same technique.- Hid lights
Don't forget to give your light's optics a good clean.- What did you do to your zed today?
Very smart! That finish on the bolsters looks good too.- This anyones on here for sale

Coming along nicely! Why not refit your fan shroud and improve your cooling efficiency?- What did you do to your zed today?
Please don't.- Steve Millen and his No.75 300ZX at Monterey
Lovely videos of Steve Millen driving his No.75 300ZX at the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion in California, July 19, 2014. From 1990 to 1995, Millen drove the Twin Turbo 300ZX . The car dominated the IMSA in its GTO, then later GTS categories due to its newly designed chassis and engine. Millen would rank as the #1 factory driver for Nissan for 7 years earning two GTS Driving and two GTS Manufacturer's Championships. The biggest win for the race Z32 was the victory in the 24 Hours of Daytona in 1994. In the same year at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the 300ZX ranked 1st in the GTS-1 class and 5th overall.

Have you asked your engine (re)builder?- Viscous to electric fan
It spins on RPM and temperature. For example, you could have low RPM and high engine temps and the viscous coupling will be fully engaged (think stop-start traffic). On the other hand you can have high RPM and lower engine temps and the viscous coupling is disengaged (think motorway speeds).- Happy Birthday Groover
- Canadian Lancaster UK Tour
Absolutely fantastic!!! Found out yesterday that the Lancasters are using Biggin Hill as a base for their southern display tour. Saw one of them going into land today when I was out driving. Biggin is about 6 miles from me, so I will go over tomorrow and see if I can get a look as they go off for their Saturday displays. Better still on Sunday they will be doing a flypast over Kenley airfield at about 12:40pm on their way to Eastbourne. Kenley airfield is about 1/4 mile from me. RAF Kenley was a front line BoB fighter station and is still remarkably intact. Can't wait! This is Kenley airfield taken as we flew up to the RAF Museum at Cosford from Bigging Hill in 2011.- Zeds ready ( hopefully)
Aside from the pistons you already have forged inners from the factory.- Canadian Lancaster UK Tour
