General Discussions - Non 300ZX

We all see the huge amount of posts in the help and advice section which I must say has been a huge help when needed but it does make it look like Z's go wrong way too often. So lets see how reliable your Z's are. I'm not talking about things like annoying little squeeks etc I mean things that affect the everyday driving of your car.

It was on here a few years ago:rofl:[YOUTUBE]60og9gwKh1o[/YOUTUBE]

Well just thought i would post that i am one step closer to getting a zed.....i passed my driving test today!!!

I know, a bit of a long shot to put up on here but if you don't ask you'll never know. I'm looking to organise an evening out in "grand style" and require the use of a chauffeur driven Phantom. There are two companies relatively near me (ie West Midlands) who could provide this service but are charging an arm, leg and kidney for the privilege. I was just wondering if anyone knows of a company (or even a well-heeled friend) who could provide this service. This would be for the evening of May 25th and requires a pickup in Warwickshire, drive over to Staffordshire (Litchfield area) and then back again a few hours later. Anyway - just thought I'd ask ... …

Spent the afternoon making up a rough wire armature for the custom dash. Layed up the inside with tape, (which I'll coat with a releasing agent) leaving a few hopefully well sited holes to inject the expanding foam. I'll angle it round to face the driver a bit more before I do though. It should leave me with a good base to sculpt onto, fingers crossed! ;) Still got to make up ones for the passenger screen and the centre channel so they all flow "organically" into one another. Also got to cut back the plastic cowl over the clocks and the plan is to cut out the mountings for the control pods either side and mount them flush to the dash so they don't obscure the view (ideall…

I love emails like this! Funny 'cause I don't really know the bloke either! Hey Dave, You're a legend! By the way it was you i saw the other day driving that sweet 300zx wasn't it??! Damn, i've wanted one of them for ages! Don't tell Elfyn but it kicks his Clio's arse anyday of the week! I'm logging out now... Cheers, Benjamin

As some of you know or dont know, we have a garage which also sells fuel. We had a huge delivery today and thought some of you might find it interesting to see what independent garages get charged for fuel. We have a contract with Gulf and they charge us 95 RON 90.9p/ltr Selling at 110.9p/ltr DEV 101.9p/ltr Selling at 122.9p/ltr which after tax and what not we get about 1.3p/ltr profit :cry: bloody tax farming government :rant:

The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility. * *As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English". * *In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter. There will be growing publik enthusiasm …

How do i get an iPhone without a contract? Are they now readily available unlocked as they are just contracted to 02 aren't they??? Also is there a newer version due out soon?

This is Jorge Lorenzo during the China GP qualifying, If anything deserves a round of applause, this does, especially considering he had a broken foot and a badly sprained ankle [YOUTUBE] [/YOUTUBE] Id be needing a 4 pack of andrex after that!!!

Did anyone watch the GP ? I am now going to put it on, recorded it on sky plus. When i sell the Zed it,s a new kitchen or a GSXR 1000. Sod rocket Ron with his 147.......... It's rocket Rossie for me.

I am currently using Norton 2008 (and have always previously used Norton products and been happy with them) and my subscription is about to expire. I was considering either renewing the 2008 subscription or upgrading to their 360 v2 product. I have read quite a few reviews of the version 1 of the 360 product and how it slows your PC down - I assume v2 has taken care of these problems. My PC is already a bit slower when booting up or shutting down using 2008. What experience of Norton do people have or which other Internet security / anti virus software do people recommend ? Bsically to sum up...I am using XP, I am about to change to a wireless network and I want in…

Count the number of spots on the girls dress, I bet you miss one...

I am currently recruiting for a SQL server 2005/.Net developer in Birmingham and a SQL server DBA in Sale near manchester. Can either be contract or perm position.
