As two players with such a high profile for both good and bad reasons what should be done with them? I mean if fighting on a pitch infront of 50,000 is not bad enough he has to fight with his own team mate,what a pair of plonkers :rofl: Watching match of the day last night it looked like Bowyer fliped because Dyer would not pass him the ball. :xxx:

Hi, Just wondering what kind of responce you guys recieve from 350z owners over there. I passed one yesterday in slow moving traffic, it was georgeous looking silver one, i gave him a discreet wave of acknowledgement but he completely dismissed me even though he saw me...Pr*ck was probably thinking "your only driving that cos you cant afford this". true in theory, but im still in love with the z32 . :bow:

My mate's not long bought himself a new car and I've been having a look round the owners forum he's just joined. While there I found this freshly modified version. This may be too easy for some but just for sh1ts and giggles as it's late...can you guess what car it is? :)

Yesterday, whilst driving home from work, there is a stretch of road between Sheffield and Chesterfield called the Dronfield bypass. It is a sweet piece of road about 4-5 miles long where you can get to some good speeds. Anyway, I away from the roundabout in 3rd up to 90, 4th to 110 and then stuck in 5th and kept my foot down. Now on my tail is an 02 toyota celica vvvvvvti, or whatever they are, and till I got to 100, he was not gaining, then up to 120 I let him pass, which he did very slowly, because that's all he could, but then he flatted out at 135, and I went past at 140+. Now my question is this, is an age when a 214 16v rover is producing more bhp than an 8v 1…

was on my way to work the other mornin stickin to the 30 limit (speed cameras) when some knob in a van gets right up my arse flashin his lights with a few hand gestures, of course this only encouraged me to go that little bit slower :) the guy turned off down a little rat run (to get in front of me or so i thought) by this time i was seein red and thought id put the foot down to get in front again to wind him up some more :) floored her and then i saw something over my shoulder yes it was the back end whipped the wheel the other way and she came back perfectly scary when the central reservation came a bit too close. got to the end of the rat run and saw him turnin off in…

Hi I recently came across a book in a secondhand shop called "JAPANESE SUPERCARS". Written by a guy called terry Jackson in the early nineties , he covers all the cars that were brought out at that time including Mitsubishi gto, Mazda rx7, Lexus soarer, Honda NSX, Mazda MX5 (the supra had'nt arrived yet) and of course...the NISSAN 300zx He really covers every car indepth, with Colour photos , specifications, driving experience, how they were designed Etc. Although he tried his best to be Un-biased, the write-up on the Z was without doubt the favourite. "The first sentence i wan…

WARNING! GREMLIN’Z DISCOVERED IN ESSEX! A WORD OF WARNING TO ALL 300ZX OWNERS Whilst working on my Zed the other evening I made a disturbing discovery. Nesting in my throttle body was what I can only describe as a small Gremlin like creature. It appeared to have been chewing on various connectors around that area leaving a blue/green deposit on them. Was this the cause of my intermittent stumble problems? After contacting the zed owners club in Japan it has come to light that our far eastern friends have been aware of these creatures for some time. There are different varieties. The Japanese gremlins are most feared and have a voracious appetite for wiring lo…

The GF wanted the MR2 today so driven the 300 in to work and now I have a bented front wing because a lasy ass hole of a bin man :xxx: :xxx: could not be assed to put the brakes on a blue bin XX%^&6778^^87fgf(*&*%^% I put some pics up later

i got a phone call from my mother the other morning about 3 am she said that the police had knocked on her door and asked her to have a look at her car and see if anything was missing from it. walking down the path she was picturing her window smashed and the radio gone or her wheel trims missing. but as she got to the end of the path she noticed some little pikey had pinched her BONNET and also tried to take the lights was just wondering if any of u lot had anything strange stolen from your car

Since I wasn't able to get the alloys I really wanted :( I've been on the hunt for some more. Just had confirmation that if I want them, I can import a set of the style below in 19's :eek: for a very reasonable price (and that's taking into consideration shipping and taxes). I've always said I'm not a huge fan of the chromed look but the style is (in my mind anyway!) really nice: a five spoke split rim alloy where the spokes aren't too thick and taper towards the end. After seeing James mention refinishing his alloys it occurred to me that I could always do the same... What do you reckon guys? [bracing myself for the backlash] ;) :D

Have just been nosing around on the barryboys website for a laugh... Someones idea of a perfectly modded car is below... Cant disagree with that....

Hi Guys, Might need 25 m2 of this stuff to cover a garage floor. I saw in an old post that Fitzy got it for £8 a sheet - http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=38561&highlight=sheet but can't find it anywhere near that price. Can anyone get hold of it or know where I can get it at a decent price? Thanks Vijay

Had a good day today helped deliver these lil buggers First one was out at 11:00 and the last one was at 7:00 this eve (6 in all) And also managed to fit in a bit of work on the 300 :D Managed to get the PTU out and opened to see if it is that that is causing my non starting! Which it isnt :( but at least it's another thing checked! Now if only i hadn't given the old "tumble weed" up i could end the day on a real high!!!!!! :mac1: oh well, guess i'll have to settle for a couple :duffer: Just had to share! Pete

A very clever lad on the old skool ford site has done some models on the PC of escorts and they are absolutely top class . These are some scaled down examples. . . Now I was thinking if we were lucky enough to have someone here who was good at this stuff, maybee someone who does it for a living, maybee even someone so good he has just been offered a new job :D:D Then that person could probably produce some spankin Z drawings (which of course would need to be white widearse :D ) Paul

Ok, now im a fully subscribed member with a black z, does this mean iv gone to the dark side?! :dance:
