Double DIN Head unit
Has anyone fitted a double Din into their Z. I know there is space for 2 Single Dins. I think that cutting the plastic inbetween the 2 dins would leave a gap too big. Would the standard metal bracket that fastens the single din work with a double din?? :confused: Or has anyone not tried this before? TIA Dave G

Z prices at import auction
Not a very good way to promote your company m8, but thanks for the hint :rofl: Some people in the business dont really know much about the cars anyway (sounds strange but a lot of you will agree), just know how to make money and prefer the ease and guarantee of doing it through reputable companies. Also good for selling their cars on too. I remember agruing with a company who sells a lot of MR2s in Dundee area about some of the specs of the models and I knew he was wrong even after selling probably >40 MR2s. And I only ever owned 1! dave G

Z prices at import auction
Yeah just noticed that anything newer than Jan 1st 1997 requires an ESVA and the rest are OK and dont think any car I would buy would be classes for an SVA test either. Woohoo. Looks like Im away to buy a 4th car then. Dave G

Spark Plugs
Just a general question. Whats the difference between spark plugs ie, platinum, iridium and standard? Or will I answer it myself as the materials are different? Which ones are more suited towards my car which will have uprated boost, ECU etc in a month or so. TIA Dave G

Bruce or Li
If it was Jet Li when he started off in films ie his sub title films (which are much better in martial arts aspects than the newer more pblic pleasing films) then it may be close, but Bruce was undoubtedly more powerful and quicker. Would still be a good fight though. Dave G

MR2 alloys onto 300zx TT
I managed to get the alloys on. Just ordered M12 x 1.25 tuners compared to the 1.50 I already had from the MR2. Apart from that, they sat tight to the disks when pushed to it. Ill test once again when the nuts come. Just hope It doesnt drop when driving if I am wrong, cant think why something would happen though. :cry: Dave G

MR2 vs Skyline on the strip
Yeah that was a guy from the MR2 forum. Seen the car in person a few times being an ex MR2 owner myself and it basically isnt a car. 1 Huge turbo, as you seen from the lag at low revs, car is basically stripped. He still uses the 3s-GTE engine, not bad for a 2000cc and about 700 bhp. Dave G

Boost Controller
Cheers guys, looks like im heading more towards the E-01 as I could get the mtching turbo timer. Does noone use a manual boost controller? Dave G

Boost Controller
OK guys im stuck on so many choices of boost controllers. I will be getting my ECU upgraded in the next few weeks followed by fitting of a Apexi induction kit and boost controller. There are so many electronic boost controllers out there but always seem to be very expensive for the same job as a manual one. The only reason I like the electronic ones is that you have an incar adjustment and another colourful electronic widget to play with. Which ones do you guys find good and where did you buy them. Also Manual or Electronic?? :( TIA Dave G

Insurance on 300ZX
1990 Auto twin turbo. 21 years old. Insurance in my name and GF named driver (23), 1 years NCB, low crime area. £1700 fully comp which was lucky. Rest of the insurance companies wanted abot £1800+ TPFT and £2500+ FC. Insurance companies did say that once I get a years no claims on a car like this instead of "slow" cars my premium would half at least. Goodluck. Dave G
