Well have ya punk? Not overly convinced about this sort of thing, my Bro is a member of the Wrexham Paranormal Society and cracks me up. He really is the Peter Venkman (Ghostbusters incase you're wondering who the fook PV is) sceptic of the bunch. He's been to a place called Plas Teg and stopped over during the night at other supposed haunted places. He's obsessed with Orbs which appear on pictures which I personally think are just generated by the camera lens. Especially when he was interested in getting a Lexus IS200 and we did a search on the web for imports for the maxxed up version, we found a few pics of a car on an auction site in Rand of Lising sun…

Sorry as I was telling macca last week (got no sympathy though :slap: ) I've been a bit absent due to having a bout of blood poisoning but I'm fine now. :hyper: So which is better auto or manual? :p

This nutcase PMSL I was round there today. Also Is there any need for that much ink? :confused:

went for a booze cruise with some mates from work on friday - got to dover and was well pleased to see the gorgeous blue wide arch z (think its chris) waitning at passport control. :hyper: 30 yards down the road - a luvly red zed! :hyper: wow i thought - 2 great zeds in 5 min! :hyper: got to our queue for the ferry, to find another 3 zeds - the unmistakeable chunk machine and two black zeds with 999 spec rears. :hyper: i take it it is king of europe this weekend or something!!! :slap: :slap: :smash: :smash: :dance: :duffer:

I have renewed the links but no better. Infact if I click on my website and click on one of the signiture pictures it used to take me to a page where the logo was contained..but now it comes up as a new page and says :- Forbidden You don't have permission to access /.http://217.68.23.16/~blackmagic300zx.co.uk/images/ZISMO logo.GIF on this server.

Making me bench up!!-that should hold an engine block! :D

I've just found this, and I'm stunned :D Clicky, Clicky Four pages of photos.

Managed to get the first stage of my custom dash finished today. I needed to lay up a fibreglass base on which I can sculpt the new dash (out of expanding foam) and after a couple of days at it, here it is. I'm going to cut out the cowl over the clocks and extend it over the centre panel, which will be brought out and swept round to face the driver at an angle (housing gauges and at least one recessed screen for the computer interface). The passenger side will have a cowl fitted and a larger screen recessed into it facing forwards. That's the plan anyway! :D Leigh.

Fitted yesterday, haven't had a chance to drive it much yet, looking after my boy and all, but it does sound so much better than stock! Well stock doesn't really sound of anything I suppose. It's got a very low rumble, seems fairly quiet at cruising speeds. Going to go and find myself a tunnel somewhere!

Got to go to Strood tonight :cry: till Sunday morning then back up to Thoresby for 10.30 for the Jap car show :nana2: any one from here live in Strood?

ok it's after the witching hour so no harm for a pointless thread! Anyone like to harbour a guess on how many Z32's are on the road in the UK , or worldwide? I've read different stats on how many were produced originally , but i'd reckon there are around 7-800 in the UK? And I can't be the first to ask this

yay!! :duffer: :duffer: :duffer: :duffer: :duffer: :nana2: :nana2: :nana2: :hurl:

I have not said anything about this before because I wanted to wait until everything had been finalised, but we have recently purchased a one bedroom property near Marbella in sunny Spain as an investment property. The purchase was completed yesterday and I thought I'd let you know just in case you're interested in renting. It's available for weekends (long weekends). Weekends will cost only £55.00 (friends & family rate) for two nights and £100 for the Week, at least up till 31 Oct of this year. It's a one bed on the first floor, (no lift sorry) but has lovely sea views etc. Attached is a photo, so let me know if you are interested.

Recently cleared out stuff from my parents and found this. A matchbox 260z! My love of Zeds must be in the blood! Looks well used :D

anyone going, sounds like a good time to be had http://www.pontycruise.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2109

Well, I just moved out to Canada this week and absolutly loving it! Weather is great, been 33 degrees every day this week. Missing the Z but she will be coming out in Aug. Got myself a 5.7V8 GMC Yukon at the mo, and to be honest it can haul in a strait line! Only manages about 11MPG but who cares when 75L of petrol cost 20 quid. There is a z club out here I belive but I bet it aint nowhere as good as 300zx.co.uk! Parts are half the price over here so some serious modding is on the menu! If anyone wants any parts shipped as a private gift I'll see what I can do! Andy

Ok just out of curiosity what is the time frame of getting caught on a speed camera and them contacting you about it? Boyfriend was caught beginning of may but only recieved a letter today about it. We was told by a few people that its suppose to be within 14-28 days after the offence happened

I have just got back this morning from a week working in Edinburgh. I flew up (Easyjet) on Saturday. What a place? The people (that I met) were very nice and friendly the place is bursting with history and it has some of the most breath taking scenery I have ever seen. The night life is quite busy and full of tourists but still was very good. I am thinking of taking the Ol' lady up for a few days next month. I am nevertheless glad to be home again. The drive back took me 5 1/2 hours left Edinburgh at 04.00 got home by 09.30 with a short breakfast stop near Donnie. :nana2: Just thought I would share my experiance with you. Incase you missed me???? :rofl:

Yesterday afternoon my wife and I were travelling in convoy on the A roads just past Salisbury plain, when a Pheasant flew into the windscreen of my wifes primera (she was behid me) she instinctivly swerved and collided with an oncoming car. Which resulted in her being fatally injured. My 4 year old son was in the back seat in his child seat, and was virtually unscathed. I ran back and pulled the window out shattering it and forced his door, I managed to release him and get him out and back to my car with his 7 year old sister. Then I and a first aider tried to keep my wife alive , but she was to badly injured and losing to much blood, she had stopped breathing as the em…
