My work is having a clearout, amongs all the other sh1te they sent out found these little gems!!! If you cant read the japanese to engish translation on the front it reads; GTR Racing Sports Pillow Suspension Hitherto unknown product, brighut, bright Orrnaments can havefind everything freshand new. THESE ARE NOT TYPO'S THIS IS WHAT THE PACKAGING READS!!! :rofl: On the back are Instructions, except they read as follows; Instrucpions Pull the pillow, thstall pillow suspension oruaments and then plugn, can have bright feelings. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Not sure if this has already been posted on here but just read through all the compliments! http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=140331 My fave: "my advice is burn the fcuking thing, claim insurance money and with 20-30pounds of the insurance money buy a decent hatchet and cut the bodyshops heads off" Even the Corsa boys don't like it :eek:

was the site hacked? http://www.ztoys.net/

Why do the charge some regions more than others. Is it purely down to the population in those regions?

Sorry to vent some frustration, but I have to get this off my chest because the wife couldn't give a crap (actually I think she's laughing inwardly). A while ago some tit ran into the back corner and drove off meaning I had to have it resprayed for £500. I know there are loads of people who have been in a MUCH worse situation than that, but TITS in SHIT LITTLE ESCORTS should WATCH WHERE THEY ARE GOING. I was coming off a roundabout tonight and SOME IDIOT clipped the back end on the NEWLY REPAINTED BUMPER. Ok, it's not done much, but it's cracked the new sodding paint and pushed the bumper out of shape. I'm beginning to think the car is invisible. Oh well, back t…

2 cars of identical overall mass are in a race on a straight track. Car A has 10% of it's mass in the body and 90% of it's mass in the wheels (hypothetically) Car B has 90% of it's mass in the body and 10% of it's mass in the wheels (hypothetically) Which car will win assuming they both have the same power and are driven identically etc. ? I think car B would win (but am not certain).

My car is stock apart from derestricted from Jap.I want to keep the original wheels as i've had them refurbished back to new.Does anyone know what is the biggest and widest tyres I can go to to fit the original rims (225/50 R16)? What combination ie for front and rear. Oh yea and I am looking at TOYOS or VREDESTEIN SPORTRAC 2.Any comments relating to the above would be most appreciated!!!!! Chaz :bow:

Can you beleive these went for £387? ($689) 18's aswell. I quite fancied them but the company wouldn't ship to UK........bummer.

Just managed to put me Zed pic's up,quite easy to do really.I hope you all like them .Thanks to the Mods for giving me the space :bow: :bow: :bow:

This is what they say they will do: http://uk.news.yahoo.com/040421/344/erlx8.html Scamera partnerships to die - YESSS :dance: Make as many ppl as you can aware of this! Even if you dont trust them it's a step in the right direction.

Any ideas SRRAE? :D:D:D

Another year's run out and it's insurance time again. Now, I /hate/ ringing round for a decent quote! "Quote me happy"?! Faahck off! Anyone here can probably appreciate, you usually get some poor girl on the end of the phone following a pre-defined list of instructions. 10 minutes into the list is the: "do you have any modifications to your vehicle?" question. Oh dear. Yes... I've got sh*t-loads of mods! Then if they'll even insure a mod'd car, you have to sit there for ages explaining what all those mods are to someone who knows nothing /at all/ about cars. "Hold on, I'll need to ask someone about this". That sound familiar?! If they come up with a decent quote, there's …

nothing to do with the Z but it was on the radio about these "manufacturing plants" buying up red diesel and washing the dye out with a chemical. never thought about this before but does this mean we could be buying it through our pumps? and what chemical do they use? can it damage your engine? im a bit worried because my mate filled up at a local garage for about 6 months and had a loss of power (down from sewing machine to hairdryer) :rolleyes: and high wear on his TDi golf engine. anyone else had this? never thought it could be the diesel till i heard that. :nono:

........:D :dance: Love them 99 Spec rears, match the 99 Spec front too.... :bow: Matty.

If this works you should see her as she is now, and when i put her into PPS and get her back she will be saying does my Bum look Big :rofl: cos she going wide arse...

£130 + shipping !! It's not fair !!

Does anyone use the The Online Nissan 300ZX (Z32) Service manual ? The reason I ask, is that it is not searchable, and I've started an Index page to help find topics easier... I've only indexed section FE (Engine control, Fuel & Exhaust System), and I don't want to do the remaining 1300+ pages unless it is worth it: Index page

I gave me dad the key to me car yesterday so he could get his car out, he only went an reversed it into a skip and smashed the centre pannel :eek: if any one has one for sale could you give me a shout thanks

For all those thinking of getting a new phone or simply upgrading can I recommend the new sharp GX30 Mint bit of kit. Plays MP3s has a 1 Megapixel camera, Torch, etc Only downside I can find is infrared and blueetooth seem to be limited to a headset and pc only - so no phone to phone functions unless you send via mms or summit. Look at the attached photo - this was done on it!!!! Well chuffed

Well, here goes in for a penny in for a pound, Picking up my First Z from Arthur on Saturday, had a test drive and a look see over under and around. What a fantastic car, reminds me of the first time I drove my 200, wide grin that did not go away, I always wanted a zed, and now my 200 has alas died of chassis corrosion it has given me the chance to get me a 300, :dance: I can also recomend Houghton Insurance for the lowest quote, at just below 600 quid fully comp, about 50 quid more than my 200, marvellous. Sorry to relieve Arthur of his beloved car :cry: , but I promise Ill look after it. :) Arthur by the way is a decent chap who makes a good cuppa, and Ill hold …

Yippeeeeeeeeeee Picking her up a 1.30 today....... Now I guess the fun begins as she's stood still for 3 months. Suggestions for immediate things to do after a long stagnet period. :dance: :bow:

On the business park we have one of our offices, there is a limo hire company, the owner of which has a purple poopra. He is a middle aged guy who told me that he would kick my "saggy rear" when he got his new poopra about six months back. Met this joker on the A41 outside Newport yesterday. Despite struggling with rear end traction I pulled past him at around 110mph with (shocking) ease. Today, he had a local auto tuner round to look at his car. Says he had problems with his fuelling.....hmmmm maybe. Or maybe your purple poopra with its ridiculous drainpipe exhaust just aint no match for a Zed in a pissy mood. He wants to meet me at Santa Pod. Says he wi…
