As some of you know, when you talk to me about buying parts I do NOT recommend Z1 ([300zx.com](http://300zx.com)) for anything. This is because several years ago when they were starting out, they screwed with Ash ([www.AshSpecZ.com](http://www.AshSpecZ.com)) by registering variations of his name as domains and directing them to their website… with the intent to either steal, confuse or swing potential customers. Shitty. Since then, they’ve grown HUGE in the Z community. They hold the Z nationals each year. They OWN the largest (but least informative) 300zx forum ([300zxClub.com](http://300zxClub.com)) and they have the largest amount of parts 300zx cars in the nation. If I wasn’t part of the Z community and simply a business guy I’d applaud them for this… … But if you’ve ever dealt with them, you know how bad they are. I could go on and on about the nightmare stories I’ve heard and experienced, but I’ll stay on point about their business practices. The best resource for 300zx information is [www.TwinTurbo.net](http://www.TwinTurbo.net) (TTNET) - it’s the 2nd largest 300zx forum and Z1 does not own or have any say in how it’s run. It’s the only 300zx forum that I use. Although it’s a style of forum some people dislike, it does have an interesting way to get rid of stupid / redundant / trolling posts; _Vote To Delete_ (VTD) Recently, a few products that Z1 sells have come into question and several members of TTNET have decided to boycott anything Z1. They have even gone as far as using the VTD to remove their ads in the classifieds section. This obviously pissed off Z1, and they contacted TTNET to try and get this practice to stop… … the rest can be read [HERE](http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewforum.aspx?forum=news) Oh the irony, lol. Although you can buy whatever you like, I just wanted to put this out there for anyone thinking of purchasing anything from Z1… If their shitty service hasn’t already stopped you. And for those who use 300zxClub; if they’ve pulled this stuff on a forum that they don’t control, it’s fair to assume they’ve done it or worse on a forum they do control. Keep that in mind. If you’re looking for fair and REAL reviews of their products, you can find them on TTNET.

Sounds just like bimmerforums. The problem with most large forums is that the people that run them only care about money so they let idiots run rampant and cast away people that flame them. It’s typical and quite honestly I feel that if you’re stupid enough to fall for it and not do any research, you deserve to get screwed. ---

Uh… the point of all of this was that you _couldn’t read or do any research_ about them since they would remove any negative information / reviews from the website before anyone could see it… even the moderators. :ham: ---
