forgot about that lol, yeah use a boost controller.

You would most likely need a TT loom due to extra connectors such as the boost sensors / boost solenoid. Bit of work involved, most would say it would cost about the same as just buying a half decent TT and sorting that out. but totally up to you at the end of the day.

i spoke to the owner on the phone earlier, he still has the rotas at his mums house, and yes indeed he removed the chrome bits off it. I am actually seriously thinking about it, although it is a cat d, that was back in 2001, the car has been highly maintained from what i gather, there is no rusting issues that rebel noticed. seems quite a solid zed. i am waiting on a reply from jeff, but wont hear from him until sometime next week when he can get a chance to view any paper work he has on the car. the cambelt hasn't been changed in a while, so that and a new water pump / thermostat (learnt my lesson on that one) would be the first thing that happens if i manage to get it.

just got a set of photos through of the engine, looks very standard and very tidy under there, i can see others bloody bidding on this due to this thread lol

damn, thanks for that, take it you are at work lol thank you very much matey.

if you read the listing, the mileage is going to be way off. Lets look at it properly. we have a HPI check that stats back in 2004 that the car had done 114k, these will be in KM's if the listing is correct, he then swapped the dials, which would then add miles on to it, he then swapped the dials again back for Jap spec ones, he is most likely now taking the reading from the new jap spec clocks. which would also now be in KM's, but obviously a lot lower. If the 114k is in KM's like the listing implies, that equates to 70k miles back in 2004. (8 years ago) depending how much its been driven, id say its now close to either 90k or 110k miles. To be honest, im not too fussed about the mileage discrepancy, its how well maintained its been. as we all know, even a low mileage car can be worse off than a high mileage car, as long as the higher mileage car has been maintained better. Ive sent Jeff a PM to see if he has any more details on the car, as Rebel said the guy didn't know when the cam belt was last changed. rebel also said that it had plenty of receipts from zedworld, so it sounds like at least its been to a place that takes care of maintenance. Im not fussed about the odd thing here and their, they are after all 20 year old cars,

fire away matey, we aint like other forums that punish or bash new users for asking the same questions 4000 times. if you have a question you go right ahead and ask :) Loving the black z31, looks very nice.

For going and checking over that zed for me. much appreciated matey.

well, PM'ed the seller about the cat d, he/she hasnt a clue what im on about and asked if i knew more about it, which i dont, hence me messaging them ? lol

For people who are paying through the club, please remember to PM either me or AndyP, or both with the time and date you paid name and address, also the tickets will be sent out 2 weeks before JAE recorded delivery.

jesus, what happened to the gray one?

i would know.

going to wait on what the insurance say first. even if they want it repaired, its not going to repair the damage that has been done on a mental bases for the feel of the car.

Much appreciated for the info matey. still, im not a fan of them, the're bloody horrible lol, give me some smooth sides anyday.

if thats the case, ill pass then, not really interested in a cat D, might be something simple but i already have a car thats been in an accident and i really dont want to be getting another.

600 at the moment, though still 8 days to run, was up for 2500 buy it now, but now its gone to auction and people know what he was looking for, would be surprised if it reached that. the bumper could be rubbed down and resprayed black at that edge and i doubt anyone would notice it, but still with some of the zeds ive had, i really want a good look over any one i choose to replace the one ive currently got. ill then strip mine for the goodies, put what i want to keep on the new zed, then sell the rest and get the shell crushed. Really not feeling good about the blue one now, especially after the accident, i know others have had it worse and repaired theirs, but im just at my tether with it to be honest now.

No secrecy, just thought id ask, is it so wrong to say about PMing me? lol http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1990-NISSAN-300ZX-3-0L-TWIN-TURBO-AUTO-no-reserve-99p-start-NEW-GEARBOX-/150870835436?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item23209a40ec thats the zed in question, im a bit concerned about the sills though, as i have the same side skirts, that hole in them can let water in, and if there is no drain holes in it, then the water just sits against the sills and rots them, also he says it hasn't been driven in the winter, but has winter tyres on? though ive had someone say it used to have Rota GTR's on, so that might explain it. not fussed about the damage to the front bumper, as i still want to stick a abflug type 4 on anyway. Just keeping an eye out on possible replacements now boldys has sold lol

Happy birthday andy

Not white bud. ill pm you details.

As the title says, is there anyone in telford able to go view a zed for me? Really want to know if it has any rust on the rear arches / sills (might be hard to check due to body kit) and what the engine bay looks like / has any over heating issues? PM me if subscribed, if not let me know ill send you a link to the zed in question.

i class beyond reasonable doubt as what happened in Colorado at the darkknight rises premier, also the columbine shootings and also the Virginia tech shootings, the dunblane massacre and a few others like that, although columbine / Virginia and dunblane, incidence the perpetrators killed them selves, had they not, then that is what is considered beyond reasonable doubt.

its cracked all over the place mate, down the sides, around the rear number plate, and all across the back. i dont want them to fix the damn thing, id rather they replaced it, which they have agreed would need doing. the other thing is, even if they do fix it, i reckon ill end up breaking the car, if i come to sell it it would just be a pain in the arse as its accident repaired so will seriously effect the overall value.

well been having a nose about, i could replace it now with a few zeds on the market though most are auto's, but just going to wait and see. if they dont write it off and instead want to give it a full coat, ill need to get the abflug off car.mad my new wings and new side skirts, get everything done at the same time then.

You rang when i was out talking to cyberbean, give me a ring now bud.

the induction system can have small deposits in, id be worried if they are excessive like mine where, are your PCV valves clean, how bad is the smoke, a little isnt much of an issue.
