General Discussions - Non 300ZX

Dear Friends, This may come as a bit of a shock to those of you who know me well but I have made the monumental decision to take a complete year off. There are a number of reasons, but the major contributor to my decision has been my involvement with a group in Bolivia, who are fighting for freedom and justice against unbelievable odds. I have been communicating with this minority guerrilla group for several months, and now finally they have persuaded me to go and join them. I know you will think I am totally crazy but I have not taken this decision lightly. Nothing you can say or do will stop me doing what I truly believe in. I hope to…

Group buy??????:D

No extra discount available I'm afraid so I'll post you the form which needs to be sent to MRI (I'll pre-complete the bits which need to be the same for all of us). Are you all OK to book it quickly ? They still do have some spaces in Camping Maison Blanche which is a good site. If we all book quickly then we can get in there and it's only about 10 mins from the start/finish and the campsite backs on to the Ford Chicane (just before the start/finish). Obviously we can't guarantee to all get in the same site but it would be nice to try. CAN YOU PLEASE EMAIL ME YOUR SNAIL MAIL ADDRESS URGENTLY (dave#daveandrach.com - replacing the # with @) I'll send the…

Hi Tim, Can you still get 300zx.co.uk stickers ?.

Oh well don;t look like I'll be driving the Z much for the next week I'll have to make do with the beema :mad:

Where do I send it:D;)

Had this text to me today and made me chuckle...... Farmer to his wife; "If you had bigger tits, we could get rid of the cow" Wife to farmer; "If you had a bigger dick, we could get rid of the tractor driver". ha ha :D you want another?

In the cold, does neone elses targa tops creak quite loudly ? when I hit a small bump in the road they can make a loud snapping noise like something has broken - weird !! I inspected them, and they look fine. Also, I am plagued with condensation/water on the rear window. Not sure if the air con is working properly.:( I used to run the air con on economy, but have stopped this in order to hopefully get rid of the water. Economy is only for summer methinks !!

1. My white 300 looks cool with iced up windows and snow on the bonnet ! 2. Anyone see Top Gear gut the Jag to lower 0-60 times ? 3. Fastest car round Top Gear circuit was a lightweight one with modest engine wasn't it ? 4. I read that 200SX's are very fast midrange, so their 0-60 times are a bit misleading if you race one from a rolling start. Probably something to do with turbo lag. 5. I want a 1000BHP Bugatti, but can't afford one :( :D

neone converted their z to have one ?

he was a much better player when he was fatter. he should drink more lager I think next year. On the why-are !!

It seems the Daily Mail are kneejerking a demand for minimum 5 year sentence for anyone in possession of a firearm. Seems not 5 minutes ago the very same paper was calling for the release of Tony Martin. What a bent world.

Andy Did I see you outside Hugh Symons this morning in a mr2? I'm sure it was you. You know someone who works there, I work for WDS on the same site. Cheers Martin

First we had Hungerford, where some nutter went postal and let rip with a bunch semi-auto assault rifles. The rifles were banned and that was the end of it....ok fair enough BUT... then we had Dunblane, where a similar thing happened, but this time all the Scots women went mental and got the media in on the act (despite the fact that it was proved that the bloke was a nutter, and that the Police did nothing to take his licence away even though they had been told to do so by the blokes doctor and social workers). As a reult ALL guns that were in the least bit challenging or interesting to shoot were banned.....and that was the end of my hobby. Now some Scots wom…

Anyone on here?

http://www.mind-design.co.uk/images/P1070118.JPG Not the best way to park it, perhaps.. (That's my parents house in Poole, btw).. (Just as a note - nobody was hurt, including the milkman - amazingly - and the house is, fortunately, structurally sound)

As some of you may know I'm a Graphic Designer and also own a vinyl cutter. These two factors led me to think... I'm having my car resprayed in January and my mind has turned to how to stop, or at least minimalise, the stone chips, the biggest problem area seems to be on the front of the sills as the road debris has a fantastic sand-blasting effect on the paintwork. The other area that takes a real bashing is the panel between the headlights. I had initially tried to get some OE mudflaps but these are proving difficult to source. I had also considered a Car-Bra (US stylee), an ugly solution, although one I might still use if I decide to go on track. The lon…

Body kit...undecided which one i like yet :( Loads of engine bay stuff. de-cat but the smoke/seal failure senario would annoy me (advice welcome). One of those boost tv controllers would be nice.

so cylinder number six is the problem one apparantly. falcon have the engine in bits and said that main bearings have picked up and the con rod in number 6 is damaged. crank is beyond re-machining apparantly. i am going there tomorrow to see the engine in bits and see the damage for myself. new crank is over 1k, steve also said the engine will need reboring. will make a decision as to what to do tomorrow when i get there. maybe best to get a new bottom end and save the hassle, but i tihnks thats 3.5k before putting it all to gether and putting in the car:( anyone got a rebuilt engine for sale? cheers steve
