Which glass for an import windscreen?
I would'mt say you notice the difference between front and side, have seen lots with it changed, and definatly looks better with blue windscreen.

I see various supra's and zed's parked together every day and the mkiv supra looks more updated than the 300zx, stock vs stock....not as attractive, but definatly newer looking. GTO on the other hand has always been ugly and brash.

Beet 300zx and M30Z For Sale in Japan
Ah right. They look fantastic....I've been in 2 minds for quite some time - I cant decide wether to cough up the cash and time to go for the same style custom widearch myself or just go for pulling & rolling the arches like hese drifters. Im going to need the extra width for better traction with a wider track and tyre widths

SPL Coilovers - anyone have them?
Im considering the SPL coilovers, they seem to be better made than the Teins and use a superior Mono tube construction. They have excellent reviews in the states but does anyone in the UK have these fitted...would be interested in opinions if you have

kit on or off
Thats a great looking car...although ofcourse it has been modified.... Lowered, Big wheels, 99spec rear lights, exhausts which all makes a big difference to its looks.... plus its a shortie which IMO is better looking that the more common 2+2 anyway. A nice clean looking stock 300zx looks great (except for the stock orange indicators on side and rear) and even better with 99spec and other subtle changes. Some kits look great...some completly ruin the car. I love widearch kits though.

turbo gauge
If the needle does not sit far over to the left it indicates a Vacumn/boost leak. However the stock gauge is famously innaccurate.

Z track action
Been following this on the various US forums, and have sumarised below. This is the SPL 300zx owned and driven by Mike Kojima and Ryan Schimsk competing in the Redline time attack event at California speedway. It got 2nd at the Modified Class, losing only by 0.2 seconds to a NSX Twin Turbo(!) with 650RWHP driven my Pro race driver. It beat plenty of highly modified Impreza's, Evo's, 350z's, S2000's and porches. Neither Mike or Ryan are pro drivers, and neither had been on the Califonia speedway track before. :bow: In Car footage 1 - http://www.splparts.com/events/redline0207/Redline2.mpg In Car footage 2 - Against Modified 600hp Porsche GT2 - http://www.splparts.com/events/redline0207/Redline1.mpg In Car & Spectator footage - http://www.splparts.com/events/redline0207/Redline.mpg The 2nd Place track session - http://www.splparts.com/events/redline0207/redline3.mpg

spark plugs
Unplug connectors, undo the 2 bolts on each coilpack and remove and you have access to the plugs. You do however have to remove he balance bar to get to the back two plugs, when doing so just make sure the rubber 0-rings underneath the balance bar dont fall into the plenum when you lift it off. p.s as above, I would'nt recomend any plugs except the NGK PFR6b-11b's @ £55 set
