General Discussions - Non 300ZX

I collected my new wheels at last and they come with tyres as a package. The wheels are very nice 18" with deep dishes and imitation split rim appearance. 275/35 Rears and 235/40 fronts. :D Great! apart from the fact the Tyres are Hankook Ventus. Just how bad or crap are these? does anyone know. I usually run Bridgestone SO2's and suppose I will again in about 5000 miles. Any feed back will be good.

Disconnected my Hicas at the RR day (thanks Mr Dixon) well what a difference the car is now stable at slow and high speeds , corners can be taken with the confidence that you will come out the other side , it's also really easy to get the back end out and hold it there without having to fight the steering wheel , without a doubt my best mod yet :D

Charis, I can't PM you and don't have your e-mail address. I still have not heard from Mikis so could I trouble you to ask him to email me on dannyzaat@yahoo.co.uk urgently please. Sorry to keep hassling you. Efcharisto poly!

I've just tried changing the display order so newest posts are at the top ... it's quite good reading it that way but you then have to scroll all the way to the bottom to move onto the next thread! Could we have a duplicate of the next/previous links at the top of the thread too? Save a bit of wear on my ctrl-end keys. ;)

Number One Idiot of 2003 I am a medical student currently doing a rotation in toxicology at the poison control center. Today, this woman called in very upset because she caught her little daughter eating ants. I quickly reassured her that the ants are not harmful and there would be no need to bring her daughter into the hospital. She calmed down and at the end of the conversation happened to mention that she gave her daughter some ant poison to eat in order to kill the ants. I told her that she better bring her daughter into the Emergency room right away. Here's your sign, lady. Wear it with pride.* * * ** ----------------------------------------------------…

Just got back from weston super mare, a sneaky copper nearly had me :nono: I was going along a dual carriageway with a silly 30mph speed limit, no one else around and was doin 45, then my detector starts shoutin 'lazer lazer'! I hit the brakes straight away and crawled along at 30, and sure enough about 1/3 mile up the road a sneaky coppers arm was pointing at me from behind a post with a radar gun! I gave him a big smile as i passed lol :D Had the detector about a year and its the 1st time its saved me, bless it :hyper:

I know most of you would have seen this pic, but I love it so much its printed out and on my bedroom wall. :D I saw this Lambo 2 weeks after it was released in 2002. Must have been one of a first few in the world at that time. :D Stuart

I have heard on the news and from friends and famliy that its going to be really cold next week between -8ºC and -14ºC. I have looked on the BBC web site and in the North West and the coldest its says on there is -2ºC, a long way from the -14ºC people have been talking about. :confused: Not saying it wont be cold, but do you think the media is doing the typical thing of making a mountain out of a mole hill?

Snappy Answer No. 1 A lady was picking through the frozen chickens at the supermarket, but couldn't find one big enough for her family. She asked the shelf stacker, "Do these chickens get any bigger?" He replied, "No , they're dead." Snappy Answer No. 2 The policeman got out of his car and the lad who was stopped for speeding rolled down his window. "I've been waiting for you all day," the policeman said. The lad replied, "Yeah, well I got here as fast as I could." When the policeman finally stopped laughing, he sent the lad on his way without a ticket. Snappy Answer No. 3 A truck driver was driving along. A sign comes up that reads …

Just looking through the rides sections and found this picture of when you went to max live. Just thought id point it out, im sitting to the right of him taking pictures of the 300, not the hot blonde dancing infront :D :rofl: Small world. lol

Been offered one of these for repair. Anybody know anything about them? Any good or crap? Mark

Wondered if anyone had taken any?? I did spot one guy taking pics......... I moved my Z and parked it by the entrance of Thor on the right (when someone moved for to go on the Dyno) then after a couple of minutes talking to Rich (Chunk) someone took a couple of pics of my Z.......one from each side....... Just wondered who that was?? Wish I'd have cleaned it now........:D and popped the bonnet! ;) Matty.

Good venue, lots of people there......... .......I did what usually seem to do........go, look round, speak to a few people then leave (I wasn't going on the RR)......... Rich, hope you get that fuel leak sorted..... Smithy, hope everything gets sorted..... Pete, sorry mate I forgot the ALC and also didn't mean to step on your toes (grounding!!) :( I saw a quite few faces from Billing that I remembered but I didn't say hello, I was too cold to stay too long (I need to buy a new thick winter jacket!! LOL) Rich, I'm now officially addicted to 'Need For Speed - Underground' so much so I'm not going the match now...... :p It's too cold anyway...…

I was looking at the JWT 500 Sport turbos. As far as I know they are the stock ones which have had the internals improved. Am I right? Anyway these where going to cost me over a grand for the turbos, which is acceptable but not exactly cheap. However! I have been given a phone number of some one in the UK who rebuilds turbos. I phoned him and he knows what he is talking about. He knew what turbos where on a 300ZX anyway and said that I would need new oil feeder lines. Anyway, to rebuild my turbos with 360 Degree BB, Air Cooled and Step Gaps (Or could be Stop Gaps) works out to be £400 cheaper than the JWT and that is before I add any tax and shipping o…

As always with the usual suspects it was an excellent day. I met up with Stuart/cerina and James300 @ lakeside services at around 6:30am and headed up the A13/M25/M40, Onto the M40 services, Baggins complimented me highly on my choice of coat, offered me £100 to purchase it, and then had a little cry with herman that they couldnt take it home for that price. Stuart filled up with oil, around 3litres and we set off up the M40 at normalish speeds, saw 2 BMW's pulled over by the rozzers and was undertaken twice by the same undercover police car (twat). Finding Thor was a bit of a chore (haha I'm a poet), we circled the same roads countless times, me, james, smw1,…
