Right, my alternator belt came off a few weeks ago. Im working from above the engine as at the moment it doesn't start and its quite hard to roll it onto blocks. Ive just managed to loosen the PS belt and walk it off the pulley. Ive slipped the Alternator belt over the fan and PS belt and it fits very easily over the alternator and water pump. I was expecting it to not go over as I haven't loosened anything on the alternator :confused1: Where are the bolts for tightening the alternator?? ill probably find this out in a min after more searching but im just worried that something's broken as its just slipped straight over and its loose. Does that sound possible or do you think I can just tighten it back up again? Thanks for any replies.

Two words that will never, ever be used together in England Buttersmooth roads Thanks for the reply

How do I remove the front seats? A few bolts and a couple of plugs? Ive got heated electric seats, lwb 93 uk (if it makes a difference)

Don't worry, im making a come back this year . I miss the old scene, from the 90's 00's, where people had differing tastes apart from Scooby owners. It was good to see peoples imagination and different tastes like karls rag rolled above, one of the reasons I got a 300!. Now, its just lower it and put some nice wheels on, car shows nowadays are just like walking round a normal carpark, you could almost put one car on a show stand and just tell people to imagine it in different colours. I think its changed because of insurance, people cant afford to add bits that stand out as they would have to declare it on their insurance. Lad was buyig my 1.4 lupo for £300, insurance £4000 for a year???? You cant afford to do anything these days especially with the price of fuel too.

Can someone tell me a bit about coil overs for the 300zx? Ive only looked at the ones on zcentre, seen plenty on ebay but I don't trust ebay with car parts unless someone recommends them. I just want my car to be lower. . . . . . . . . and have good handling. Has anyone got a set for sale? Thanks.

Anychance you can get a pair of these that sit flush with the bodywork?

Desperatly need a boot lid, just brought one, but it has a soft lip on it which has different lines on the back and doesn't match my lights. So im looking for a standard lid with no rust. If you could put a pic price and location up that would be great.

Thanks for that.

Cars at the bodyshop getting resprayed. They took the back bumper off and the inner panel which is behind and around the back and which attaches to the fuel filler neck is all rotten. Is it possible to fix it with a new part or is it a bodge job :'( hmm cant podt a pic. Will try when I get home. Only on my phone.

Hi all, I need the original rear bumper I don't know if these come in 2 halves as I don't really know what it looks like, im just after the top half, ive got the demon skirt under it. Thanks

just looked at the list of 300zx's left, only 406 left? I cant have the only 300zx 2+2 auto turbo.

Looking for a demon rear skirt, or the wide demon rear bumper Anyone got one for sale?

Looking for: Rust free targa panels Rust free bonnet Polished plenum Polished hard pipes Polished pipes (the two little ones coming out the front of the engine) One piece slam panel That pot to the left of the engine, polished. Polished bar (that bar on top of the plenum at the back of the engine) Demon rear bumper Crystal side lights Bloody hell, having a memory melt down here lol. I think that's it but ill add stuff if I need anything else, thought id check the second hand market first. Doesn't matter about the colour of the panels as my cars being resprayed! yay!

For my 2nd car I have an import Honda SMX. Finding parts for it is incredibly hard (in the uk). Ive found some coilovers on another smx which is being stripped for parts, the cars working etc but it does look a little worn out. What I want to know is, if the coilovers are crap, can I get them rebuilt? (if so, anyone know where and a rough price) If they cant be rebuilt, whats the usual lifespan of a coilover? They are Tanabe Sucstec Pro Coilovers. They are £200 Thanks

ok thanks guys, haven't been on for ages, forgot the rules. Ive sent you an email Mondo.

Anyone know where I can get some leather seats made? Looked on Zcentre but doesn't seem to do them anymore. Looking at just getting the front seats redone. Also, for those in the know, im not a paid up member, can I put a 'have you got certain parts just lying around or going really cheap' post. It would include asking for items like, tailgate, rear demon bumper, engine bling, bonnet. Or do I have to pay up and put it in the parts for sale under 'WANTED'.

Ive been looking at getting a quadcopter with a camera just for fun. Seen this one which is controlled by your phone but its battery life is only 8mins. http://www.parrot.com/uk/products/rolling-spider/ Has anyone got one / anything similar or know much about them?

Its very daft in my opinion. It'll just move onto somewhere else, like it has been doing for the past 10 years. We used to 'cruise' round notts city centre - loads of police - moved onto Mansfield centre = council spent £1000's putting speed bumps in place, which was funny as they were so high the busses got grounded on them, so then they spent £1000's replacing them - moved onto j27 on the m1= 2 roundabouts with a dual carriageway inbetween, used to be over 300 cars every sunday plus about 3 police vans loads of police and the helicopter, put an injunction in place for a year and spent £1000's on cameras. Moved onto Netherpod, a strip of road in an industrial estate in netherfield. Which then moved to the road next to it, again 2 roundabouts with dual carriageway in between, drifting began. Council spent £112000 making the dual into a single carriageway. Now its all just on the main roads or parked up in retail parks as they have massive parking areas. They tried a track day event at donnington park although no one has insurance for race tracks so that died out. And all along, all they needed was a cop car sat in the same place, if there was a copper there, there was no racing just sitting, talking and listening to music.

hang on, ill just go and pick up the one ive got in my kitchen. . . . . . Its heavy, need 2 people to lift it heavy. If anyone wants one, get in touch.

For the past 6 years ive wanted to change the boot install in my car, hopefully next year ill do it. Has anyone got any pics of a 2+2 stripped out in the back? I mainly just want to see whats under the plastic covers which cover the rear suspension so i can get some idea of what i can do and how much room there is to play with. Thanks if anyone posts any,

But not for the zed, Ive just bought this, so happy, got to wait a few years before i can afford a car to put it on. My name is Nathan Sulley.

aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh

I havent had mine on for years, i dont even know where it is anymore. I thought it was only there so you didnt chop any fingers off plus if you do leave it off you only have to put your hand in it once and you'll never forget again!!

the white one with the dotz wheels looks lovely!
