well i made it to ztech today, even though the damn satnav wouldnt take his postcode!!! found his place though after i re-entered the road instead! what did greg find... lets see! fookin wrong spark plugs in my car and different varieties!! my left 02 sensor was fooked.. so we tried getting it out.. (oh and by the way i didnt break that ratchet honestly ryan, i was just gently holding things..) put new one in. belts were loose so greg tightened them.. oil change and a check over etc... and the car runs fookin nice now!! idles fine, is very quiet till you put foot on pedal.. sounds so much better and drives better too, more responsive and fuel use on …

Hello everyone, Just joined site after buying my first 300zxtt,just wandering if the wheels on it are any good or cheap items.They are longchamps xr4z,also the exhaust is made by Jazma ,any info on these two makes would be appreciated.

Near Southampton and price? Ztech isnt that close and quoted £495 + vat. Car im looking at is willing to knock price of a clutch off as it is starting to slip a little.

New car time again and the Z has to go :( It's been fun and all that but money is burning a hole in my pocket so..... I've narrowed it down to 3 cars - all v. different with pros/cons..just want to get a straw poll from yourselves about what you'd buy from the 3! (1) 911 (964) circa 1991 manual w. 100,000K Met. Grey - good nick (2) 2003 Lotus Elise manual w. 10,000K Blue w. Hardtop - perfect cond. (3) 2003 Nissan 350Z auto w. 15,000K - Import - perfect cond. Some info - I am a lazy bugger and enjoy the auto boxes... I drive wkends only though so could live with a manual So help a guy out - what the f*** will I get?!??!

am I bored or what. Just found these, make good vewing. Chris.. http://youtube.com/results.php?search=300zx

I've been thinking about tarting up my site a bit and am interested in suggestions people may have to make it better. I'm no web designer, (nor developer) so whatever I end up with will be simple. I'm really thinking content/approach, rather than flash bandwidth wasting effects etc. Any thoughts ?

Thought this might be of interest to someone......... If anyone wants any other diagrams, give me a shout and I'll see what I can come up with.

How many forum members does it take to change a light bulb ? 1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed 14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently 7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs 1 to move it to the Lighting section 2 to argue then move it to the Electricals section 7 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs 5 to flame the spell checkers 3 to correct spelling/grammar flames 6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another 6 to condemn those 6 as stupid 2 indu…
