need some tyres
I have Nankangs on the front. They are not bad (especially since they were only £60 for 235 , 17"), but give too much understeer when pushed hard. Dont grip anything like the Goodyears F1's. .

apexi filter
There is a stock spash gaurd on the car, that sits underneath the filter. I guess its been removed ? I expect that bumper you have is more prone to letting water through than the stock one.

Any chance of a group buy on HID's this winter??!!
4300k is the best for illumination and is OE fitment for cars fitted with HID from the factory. (Bmw's, Mercs, Omega..etc) The Number rating relates to colour and not brightness. As you go higher they get more blue and give less light ! 4300 - white 6000 - Blue tint 8000 - Dark blue/Purple tint I would be interested in either the 4300k or a 6000 kit.

what crazy person thought of this?
Its not really a risky trial and error idea. Those that know how Turbocharger system works, knew that restricting the flow to the actuaters increases boost.

SW October Meet
a. The SW Covers such a large area. Met a lot of the Cornish lads the other week, and the suggestion came up for a more central venue to cover those of us Around the Bristol area AND further south in Devon & Cornwall. b. A Joint meet with the Welsh members.

October meet??????
Right..we have two choices here.... A SW Meet, further south to get the Zed owners in Cornwall and Devon can get together with the Bristol lot. Somewhere in Devon would be an ideal venue. or...a Joint meet with the Welsh lot. ??

Crank shaft oil leak
Gearbox must be dropped, as its the crankshaft seal between the gearbox and block. If left too long it could end up burning the clutch out.

Which is best?
I really dislike the stock spoiler. Its ruins the lines of the car and dates it. I always liked the smooth spoilerless look, but when I did mine I felt it was "missing" something. So I went 99 Spec, and Im really pleased with it. It shows of the Zed's lines, updates the appearence, its subtle..and OE.

Dent in the hood and a hole in the seat
Dent - All depends on how bad the dent is and if the paint is damaged. There are companies that can do paintless dent repairs, and charge around £60 in the Uk per panel. Leather - Have a search on the forum for Zcentre leather, there are quite a few member that have had this done in the past. They are a complete replacement for the stock covers. You remove the old ones, and refit these ones. Its a time consuming job, and most use Cable ties to replace the old stock "rings" that hold the material to the frame.

300zx Mode
Performance is pretty much identical, so if yours feels more sluggish then its most likely to be a problem with yours. Most likely cause is that it could be in safety mode. You should run an ECU test to check http://www.ttzd.com/tech/diagnostictech.html Safety mode restricts boost to around 7psi and retards the timing.

bumper n paint
Carefull with the Fine Mesh...at speed it will actually act as a solid barrier from the air presure, preventing any airflow getting through. You could find that the two side air ducts provide plenty of cooling to the intercoolers, and any special ducts you make for the Airfilter will work....but the Rad itself would not receive any air at all.

My driver's door
This is very common. Its not the door thats out of line, its the front wing. Its been pushed outwards, from being jacked up in the wrong place on the sills. Check the sill where the wing is bolted to underneath. You may be able to just undo the two bolts, move the wing and retighten.
