Click here to find out! ROFL :D You don't wanna know what mine came out as FFS!!! :D :D

Some old, some new, still all good :D Whose cruel idea was it for the word "lisp" to have an "s" in it? A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a workstation. How much deeper would oceans be if sponges didn't live there? If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague. Nostalgia isn't what it used to be. So what's the speed of dark? How come you don't ever hear about gruntled employees? Why don't they just make mouse-flavored cat food? If you're sending someone some Styrofoam, what do you pack it in? Why do they sterilize needles for lethal injections? Since light travels faster …

http://www.300zx.cl/ Some good stuff here for zed addicts that I havent seen before anyway- sales brochure, road tests, drawings, cutways, videos and sound files etc - you can waste hours browsing it! asta la vista baybee the zed consiousness grows ever larger

(edited), i had a bit of a play with an impretza tonight, and i couldnt stop it from pulling away from me:( I think its time to get the limiter removed etc!! And i was only out trawling the streets to find the prick who upset me (edited). Then when i got home found the top rad hose leaking:( Hi ho, Hi ho, its off to nissan i go.

I keep bidding for old bangers on ebay :D Hope I don't end up with them all :eek: I'm gonna buy one and revamp it if it's in good nick, or break it if it's a shed. Either way I'll learn a lot :) Pete

that crappy old rover i was trying to give to u for nothing.. i finally got shut of it today for a whopping 20 quid... Told u it was a bargain!!!

Gave a mate a shot in my Z while on holiday back up in scotland and he wrote it off :( To be fair, wasn't really his fault, tractor turned right as we were overtaking and we hit the silage trailer and actually knocked it over. Both walked out thank god pretty much unscathed other than my cracked breast bone. Now faced with another 6 month delay to get a SWB man TT unless anyone's selling a good 'un? Had to spend my whole holiday stripping it to a shell so I could get rid of it and not leave the wreck at my parents house - man that was a heartbreaking job. Gutted TBH, but at least I'll save a fortune in fuel over the next few months

I sense too much hostility in the BBS. :p :D

I have ordered some Blitz wheels but I am scared that people won't like them PMSL:D

Just received this from the Customs Agent And here she is...... MY FOOKIN PRECIOUS!!!!! :D:D

I've recently found a good site for car audio bits at a much lower price compared to most- http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk Hopefully this info will save people looking for replacement head units some time. Was told my stock HU & CD player were uneconomical to repair so had to find replacement as avenues for attaining second hand stock replacements have all dried up and have disappointed me too many times. Can't wait till the new Panasonic CD player arrives and is fitted. No more crappy radio music for me soon, woohoo. Van

Going cheap :eek: Red zed Anyones know it? Might be of interest to those looking... Pete

Click me Knocked up a little site with some pics of my ongoing build. Things are going very well actually, loads of bits missing but I'm still ahead of scedule :D Jay

Hi Tim I'm still after a set of Silver 300zx.co.uk windows stickers (reverse for internal application). Please could you send me your details for payment. Cheerz! Steve

Clickety-click Try it - I get Your Results Your 300ZX weighs about 3480 pounds and can complete a 1/4 mile in about 14.02 seconds. That means that you've got about 249.59 HP at the wheels, and about 324.46 HP at the flywheel. Thats quite a transmission loss they're assuming :eek: Any thoughts? I think the weight is about right, correct me if I'm wrong :) Pete

A while ago Iain asked who had the largest, oeer. So I went shopping ;)

As many of you know, I'm a huge Le Mans fan. Missed last year due to honeymoon but managed to get 15 or so friends (some from here, others not) to sign up for this year. Been looking forward to it for months and a day before we're due to leave Rachel (my wife) gets massive stomach pains and is ambulanced in to hospital. She's been in a couple of days now and they can't find thr problem. There is a possibility that they'll find the problem and I'll still have time to get down there for the weekend but I'll need to get another ferry or Eurostar ticket. Does anyone know a good way to get reasonably priced tickets at short notice ? Can I just turn up ? A brief…

It's bad enough being hit by other cars, but tanks !!! :eek: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/leicestershire/2980640.stm

Anybody got a picture or diag of where and how to adjust this, as the squeek at start up is now seriously getting to me. Must do this at w/e.

Right. I think I have found the file which has been causing me so much greef. MSNCONFIG.EXE not msconfig, msnconfig. Does any one else have this file on their computer? I have never seen it before, but it keeps loading up and trying to access the internet, but is blocked by my fire wall. However, if I turn off my firewall, this file loads up within 5 mins and takes up 95% of my CPU and starts to eat my memory up. Also, this is when viruses start getting caught by my virus checker, on files like 2.exe and a.exe trying to save into the system32 directory and the startup directory. Is there anywhere I can send this file to for examination. This file is 10…

On the East Lancs (Again ;)) Red stock looking one going towards Manchester. It wasnt like my red it was slightly darker. Also a nice black Skyline R33 GTR went past me with some very nice OZ alloy wheels on. Stuart
