There is only 1 in existance fitted to a Z currently, and its white.

Nice wheel choice.

Shortie FTW

Your interior (velour) is quite desirable and relatively rare. Most owners have tweed and the Velour is a nice upgrade. My favourite interior option is the Grey Suede but thats even rarer. If you ever wanted to reupholster it then you would be better of selling the interior complete and getting hold of a tweed set to reupholster. As for dyeing...I guess in theory it would work, but not seen it done myself. I would worry about getting consistent/even covering. Painting would be a definate no.

Lower peak power engine output due to Turbo and Cam differences. Then you have additional losses compared to a Manual through the drivetrain as well. Auto's are slower in all areas - 0-60, 0-100, mid range, corner/roundabout exit.....every scenario.

It was also around £60,000 new.

V.nice. Looks great in White, but then I do have a bit of a thing for white cars lately

Entirely different size and shape. You can however sell your old Front Calipers, pads and discs to SX owners for around £100. These brembo discs yuo have, are they for GTR fitment ? - becuase the GTR calipers require a 324mmx30mm Disc with the correct offset.

IMHO - they should never have offered the Z32 with an Auto. I cant think of anything good to say about it. 1. I could'nt say for sure, never measured the mpg on an Auto, but they are typically (ie. in most other cars) a couple of mpg worse than a Manual. 2. Autobox is very unreliable, its the achilies heel of the 300zx. Rebuilds costs 1200-1500. 2nd hand boxes usually go for 200-300, but its the same again in labour to swap. Most Z's seem to be on there 2nd or 3rd box by now.

Very interesting project. Enjoying reading your progress so far and looking forward to the end result. Thats a 4-point cage in the pics (autopower?) , or do you mean you have extra bars to weld on to make it a 6 point ? Do you have any plans for the stock oil system ? Its a weak point for track/drift use, suffering from oil starvation at the pickup under high g-force. Very nice, The Dash2 with DL1 has been my plan for a while now, sexy bit of kit.

It entirely depends on how much you need to space your current wheels out by based on there offset and width. If your going to use anything more than 3-4mm then you really want bolt on hubcentric spacers.

yeh that one too ! :censored::rant::censored: Whats ever more annoying is that the adverts are doing their job well......we certainly remember them !

068 is the battery type.

You have recaro's in your Z or you have stock Z seats ?

I clearly win ! LOL It wont let me use a desktop background or themes at the minute becuase I haven't authenticanted Windows7

opps, sorry Leigh :x: Just seen your thread now :blush:

Prefer the current wheels, suit the Z more than the Jade R's which Im not really a fan off, they look like generic halfords cheapies to me.

No need to. Has no affect on the running of the car. They are often cut, typically becuase a mechanic/garage had to remove exhaust but could not undo bolt. They are also removed when people fit decat pipes.

Cat temp sensors. All the sensor does it light up a symbol on the dash to warn you that the cats are overheating - which is typically due to a missfire issue with unburnt fuel entering the exhaust system.

AA/RAC tow it for free if its "broken down", I know thats what a lot of people do to get there cars to Z specialists.

almost as annoying as there ****ing tv advert

I've used that site a lot in the past, They are the correct part numbers

Have you contacted MJP ? , the website in no way represents the full range that MJP supply.

Me and Funkysi in our little town. Used to see anything from 15-20 everyday just up the road (SWZ), however they are all but gone now.

Traffic has never been that bad from my experience, you que for a bit, but it gets busier later on. I'll probably just meet you all there.
