Just received my order from CPZ two new fog light lenses and top and bottom oem radiator hoses. After 27 years I think new hoses would be a good thing and the fog light will be brighter.

So happy, I managed to find a JDM rear bumper with OEM spats on it. I've been looking for this for a while 😮

Some new shoes fitted on the rear today Federal FZ-201. Got Racelogic traction control going on as well which are getting rare although another one has just popped up on eBay. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Today, I had my front tyres replaced..... ......Two Goodyear F1 Asymmetric 5s in 235/40/18 for £206 fully fitted, at home, by Kwikfit mobile service - can't fault that! The fitter had to use Nissan's OEM jack though, as his super-compressed-air jobbie would not slide under the car LOL!!

Proper 'council estate touring car' that one. Not sure the owner read back what he'd written, awful advert, as bad as the car. Whilst the Vile-side bodykit is ghastly, the majority of that car could be fixed by simply removing all the dreadful 'magpie' autojumble add ons and the donkey-dick exhausts which make the car look like a wheelbarrow. Steering wheel and bin-liner window tints are pretty comical too. It's like the owner just looked through magazines of various genres blind folded and played 'pin the nail on the donkey' when making their selection of Christmas-cracker parts.

Bought the Impul by the way. Feels surreal being a zed owner again. 😂.

Visited a local GTR specialist who also happen to work on Z32s. Got it up on the ramps for the first time in my ownership and had a pike around and got quote for getting the sill work done. The garage confirmed my thoughts that it's no where near as bad as it could be. Going to book in for early next year to get the metal work done, brake and fuel lines replaced, and a 120k service and new clutch and release bearing. My new toy from SGS arrived this morning. Now got 4 months to strip off all suspension, scrape, clean, treat, paint both those bits and the entire underside.

Installed the Racelogic today however didn’t get chance to calibrate due to wet weather. Looking forward to getting it fully working and have launch control on the Nistune new firmware. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

MoT👍 Just windscreen advisory

Have you thought about "silvering" the inside of the fog lamp housing that is visable through the lense? Joel did it to his lamps and I plan to do the same.

Thats a new meaning to taking your car to work lol.

Just a little update. Rear subframe prepped and treated today. Will get first coat of Jotun 87 tomorrow on it. Hopefully get chance to put a second coat on before heading off to work. Decided to stick with the OEM subframe bushes. Have done a thorough inspection of them and they are still in usable condition. Especially considering the limited mileage the car will get going forward. All my new bushes for everything else should arrive whilst I'm away at work. I'll strip and paint the arms whilst I'm at work so I can throw it all back together when I get back. Also started to re

Going with Hide n' Seat 👍

Seen this 300zx for sale on ebay and its very lets say personalized rather than modified. But what made my jaw drop was the front grill I know a bird can sometimes fly into your grill but to have one flying out of it was something else. I think I know now why Funkysi sold his Z and this would definitely send him over the edge of reason.

This sums up my day. Huge thanks to Bird for answering my dumb questions and being on hand with his experience.

Agreed, we do owe so much!

As I have just replied to Garry about discussing Zeds, I will just bring you up to date with my zed. I imported the Z myself back in 2014. At the end of 2019 my 3rd auto box failed. I managed to source a full manual conversion in January 2020. New Exedy lightweight flywheel, clutch plate & bearing. New manual gearbox loom purchased. All coil packs & spark plugs replaced Front sills replaced tomorrow & ready to drive home Friday all being well. Art

When its done that should be it for life. Its a pity car manufactures dont use copper pipes in their factory build.

So finally got this sorted, Thanks Andrew for the diagram! Got it all wired up and can now charge things in the car!

Another near factory fresh Z32 😲 and the devil is in the detail like the spare titanium key. Just love it.

You'd be surprised. The odd horror pops up, but it's few and far between thankfully. I don't think any car marque has been immune from being ruined. Seen some terrible Bentleys and Rolls Royces which have been touched by the hands of people with absolutely no taste or style.

Lol dont hold back Simon. It is a very bad attempt to improve on a very well designed car is what your trying to say. I bet you dont get this with Aston Martins 🙂

I really did not want to buy another car, but the government has forced me to. I could not pass this one up it arrived this morning. 2002 Porsche 996 3.6 315bhp Full Leather high spec car. Only fault needs an engine rebuild, really looking forward to it. Fun will start in 2 weeks

What a way to do it. Seven times world champion. 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁

Looked at my Japanese key again this morning, rubbed a bit of metal polish cloth on it and applied a touch of red paint to the logo. This took me all of 2 mins, suppose with pocket wear it'll keep shiny, just that the advert for them is not the best, they look very flat, like I said they are what they are for the money.

After an advert in the back of Top Gear magazine caught my eye - not to mention the 10% discount on offer - I thought, why not? I approved the final proof today, so my car history in a single picture is on its way......!! PROOF 3.pdf

Update - imported FIC Hubcentric Wheel Spacers, Pair 10mm 5x114.3 12x1.25mm, Part Number: WP5110-66N from Concept Z Performance and thay would appear to have solved the problem. Many thanks again for the advice

Your car's photos made it across to Autocar Japan Gary. https://www.autocar.jp/photo/562203#photo64

Welcome back to the fold and good luck with your Z search, Graham’s Impul would be a fine choice indeed.

Well done Lewis Hamilton with a record breaking 92 wins 👍 https://www.autoweek.com/racing/formula-1/g34003209/all-91-lewis-hamiltons-f1-victories-pictures/

Got myself a bmw oil burner, m sport 335d only stage 1 350bhp though. But the call of a zed has begun. 😂

Have a good one mate 🧁

Happy birthday mate - have a great day!! Richard😎

Happy birthday [emoji3060][emoji1][emoji1417]. Hope you have a great day! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good to know. But too late for me as the subframe is already off and in bits!

Christmas started very early for my Z this year! 😂 Nice buys Gary👍

Only 45,000 miles and looks in great condition. https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/dealer/nissan/300zx/2444614.html?fbclid=IwAR32vxPVNgPbe-E5LvjZCs8xanbQzJ55mt8XgbdcZClA26ZJN41mqfv4KVQ

Haha I’ve just seen this car on eBay. Apparently the car was the owners ‘joy ride’ [emoji1787][emoji1787], according to the advert. My favourite parts are the chrome trim around the rear lights and did you notice the ‘automatic’ and ‘limited’ badges on the rear end as well. Never mind Funkysi, this has sent me over the edge, in fits of laughter!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Made a start on dropping the subframe this morning. So far I'm about 3 hours behind schedule! 2 snapped bolts and a feck ton of swearing and I finally got the JapSpeed exhaust off after 3 hours of trying not to snap any bolts. Hopefully have the subframe down by this time tomorrow.

I believe yes the new 20th January 2021 president will be prioritising getting coronavirus under control, I wouldn't hold your breath though on him finding some money to pay for your respray, still if you don't ask 🤣.

The remains of my 4th and final slicktop were loaded up and shipped out on Friday last week. It's been a blast but time to move on............

Mercedes are F1 Constructers Champions for 2020 🏁 Another win for Lewis at Imola he is uncatchable on the race track and Bottas 2nd making a Mercedes top two. Max Verstappens race car let him down again after gaining 2nd place. All said and done it was a great race at Imola

Thats one fast Z you will have there Gonzo 👍

Agreed.....😎

Hi and welcome back bud as the lads have said the impul belongs to me and I’ve had the car nearly 5 years and its well known and its the best colour and has the best set off wheels you can get on a zed ...lol...all you need to do is ask the guru god Jimmer about this impul as he has just done a major service on the car if you would like too view it just contact me....Simon at Hide and seat done the seats just ask anyone about his work as its second too none

A little update as I’ve always got loads going on and plans for the Zed. Wheel colour this time. I’ve been watching some successes using liquid wrap which you can spray on and then peel off if not happy. Not a fan of vinyl wrap due to so many jobs looking incomplete and poor. Liquid wrap is basically plasti dip made better in that you can get pro get sprayed with a gun that can be sanded and polished after you apply the topcoat or follow the trend of 10 years ago and stay matte. Started experimenting with it and half way through my wheels now as my end colour scheme will finish with a shad
