General Discussions - Non 300ZX

I went yesterday and it was surprisingly good!! When I went through the main entrance and saw that 2 of the main halls were virtually empty, I thoughT WTF, this is gonna be one scaled down sh1te motorshow!! Happily it wasn't. The Nissan 350Z is a fantastic beast and the stock price for them is about £24K, but if you want the extras like leather, improved sound etc and have the Nismo kit fitted, prepare to pay up to £29K..........!!! I would have glady drove away ANY of the 4 350Z's on the stand. :) Other cars I looked at were the Mazda RX8. When I told the salesman that I am keen on the 350Z, he went on the offensive and bleated on about how the pow…

Hi all, Now thanks to Chris I've worked out how to ship my car back to the UK, my next headache is arranging insurance. :bow: I've so far spoken to Egg Insurance (same as Tesco), Direct Line, Screentrade, and I've used the autotrader.co.uk insurance search engine. The problem - no-one is even prepared to quote me a price. :cry: The reasons I've been given is 1/ My zero no-claims (I've lived in Japan for the last three years) 2/ The cars modifications (wheels, stereo, exhaust) 3/ Import car combined with modifications My details: Male, 26 years old, full UK license for 9 years, no previous claims or accidents, but zero no-claims.

Ive had my car on ebay for the last 10 days.. not a sniff!!!!! :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: its not as if its over priced ( is it?). One of the guys on the gt4 (woo hoo :dance: , ahem!) board raffled his, alright his car was only worth 2k ( one of the older style fours) but he put a post up gauging interest in a raffle. He wanted 20 quid for 100 tickets and he sold them in a flash, this idea seems very appealing! except of course id be looking for slightly more than 2K

Check out your local Halfords ppl! Went to Bridgwater today and shock, its half price! £15.99 / 4L.

Hi. Does anyone have any reccommendations for a good company to organise shipping my car from Japan to the UK? I'm currently in Japan with the car so maybe a Japanese (English speaking!) company would be more useful than a British one. Cheap is good. I just need a basic service, I can de-register myself and deliver and collect the car from ports. ;) Anyone done this before? Cheers. I'm looking forward to getting back to the UK on August 3rd. I'm planning to ship the car from Japan mid July so that I don't have to wait to long for it in the UK. :cool: Thanks a lot - Rory :smw:

I just love some of these. :bow: http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1364258 Rich:)

Trying to install/upgrade from Windows 98 to XP Pro but hit a few minor problems! During the install several complaints about not being able to copy certain files over, so hit ESC to carry on then on the reboot XP kept getting stuck so had to revert back to 98. XP install did complain about the fact that Norton was running so I have just deleted all Norton Anti-Virus, Clean Sweap etc. Oh and when something in the install tried to write to the boot sector XP claimed that it was "Virus Like Activity!" WTF??? So just before I try again just wondered if any of you guys have anything to add that might help me out a tad? TIA

LOL!! check out the map!! :D http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/35/

Hi, Just bought a 300zx TT and it will be out on the drive most of the time and so looking for a quality breathable cover for her. Any recommendations? Cheers, Dan. :cool:

PMSL :rofl: Berks - I forgot about last weekend - did you find out where all the ants on your car were coming from? :D:D Pete

Afternoon :) Just received and fitted Danny's brake master cylinder brace, nice piece of kit. PITA lining up the 2nd bolt but got there under the 20min quoted fitting time ;) Just wish I'd got in on the first order, and I might have been out testing it now, instead of just admiring the looks of the hidden bling. :cry: Cheers Danny :cool: Pete

Further to my last thread about installing XP...I have a second drive that I want to activate so that I can copy/backup some files (mainly porn LMFAO) over to before I nuke my primary drive for XP install. How do you add a second drive? I think the jumper is set to slave on the second drive, have used the cable from my primary disk to connect up the second one but when I do auto detect in the BIOS it sees bugger all about the second HDD. HELP!!! :( Primary at the moment is only 6GB and the seondary drive, which I think currently has Red Hat installed, is a Quantum Fireball at 40GB's. Muchos TIA.

What music do you recon suite driving the Z. R&B, rock, 60's, Pop, Car alarm music or Val Donigan(if anyone remembers him)...........nice jumper :)

Where is big arms? Big Roy if you don't know what I'm on about? He's been in stealth mode for a week or so now! Has he finally completed his training and gone to the dark side? MkIV Poopra board and never to return! Until he finally fights Darth Macca and Obi Turbo Kebaby? Tune in for the next installment! LOL :)

Going back to a thread i posted earlier in the week, you can now have one of your own. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=14256&item=2481366412&rd=1 Quote - You will be laughed at, cheered, photographed and asked "what is it?" everywhere you go! :bow: Rich:)

Which magazines do you like and why? I mean car and motorbike ones really but any are interesting.

I must say the 840 and 850 BMWs look pretty sweet and you can get one for OK money. What do you reckon? Are they any good?
