Need a bit of advice if that's ok. The seats in my new..er...old Landy 90 are a bit bloody uncomfortable on long journeys particularly as I'm a bony bugger! Been thinking it would be great to take out the old ones and replace them with Z seats (or possibly Mazda MX5 seats as, aside from the Z, they are the most comfortable seats I've EVER sat in). How much is involved in swapping them over? Is it just a case of welding some Landy subframes to the base of the new seats? Would there be any MOT issues? I can't weld for toffee so would have to find someone to do it though :( But, saying that, something has to be done as I can't carry on like I am. Senor Dixon has, very kindly…

been working on a project for the last few months, it involves stained glass for a new chapel. Tomorrow, this panel of glass will be presented to a committee. If i get the job, it will help my business ten fold. For anyone involved in stained glass to do a chapel is the ultimate. it's a modern technique using technology/hand painted resins and colours. i've been self employed for nearly 2 years now and hope this will set me up with work for the near future. the design of the chapel is very modern and bright. That's why the design is to allow people to see in and out, yet have significant symbolic importance. The Eagle represents one of the fo…

Students at a local school were assigned to read 2 books, "Titanic" & "My Life" by Bill Clinton. One student turned in the following book report, with the proposition that they were nearly identical stories! His cool professor gave him an A+ for this report. Titanic:.... cost - $29.99 Clinton :..... cost - $29.99 Titanic:..... Over 3 hours to read Clinton :..... Over 3 hours to read Titanic:.... .

New Nissan independant suspension demo http://www.weshow.com/uk/p/17433/nissan_independent_suspension I'm impressed, in fact I'm gonna watch the display again, I want a set up just like it in my car

My folks currently own an old 1998 BMW E39 5 series but unfortunately the auto box has just died. The price they've been quoted to repair it is astronomical so they're thinking it's time to get a replacement. They don't want to spend a huge amount (6K tops), so they need something second hand, with four doors, a large(ish) boot, with as many interior comforts and mod-cons as possible BUT also with a bit of poke and as swish looking as the budget will allow (my mom has hankered after something sporty or a convertible for a while). What would people recommend they look at? Cheers, Leigh.

Putting fuel in my Truck when a little old lady pulls up at the pump behind me. I can see she carn't find the petrol flap switch so offer to help (only because she reminded me of my little old mum). She's very pleased and I ask how much petrol she'd like and kindly put £20 worth in. Only then when I remove the filler cap off the back of the flap do I realise (due to it being written in big fook off red letters) that it is a diesel. I couldn't just let her clear off and wreck her car so I told her what I'd done and promtly got the RAC out. In total She missed he blue rinse appiontment. I paid £20 for diesel and £60+Vat to have her tank drained and felt like a r…

I was just reading a thread regarding insurance for your zed, and i thought it would be fun to get a few quotes and see what they came back as. I was completely honest with all the answers and i got the highest quote from Endsleigh, a MASSIVE - £25790.50 Can anyone beat that?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Only insuring your zed not a bugatti veyron! lol

Just got email containing this, I think its a great idea, and I have already done it :cool: Allan ICE Campaign - 'In Case of Emergency' We all carry our mobile phones with names & numbers stored in its memory but nobody, other than ourselves, knows which of these numbers belong to our closest family or friends. If we were to be involved in an accident or were taken ill, the people attending us would have our mobile phone but wouldn't know who to call. Yes, there are hundreds of numbers stored but which one is the contact person in case of an emergency? Hence this 'ICE' (In Case of Emergency) Campaign. The concept of 'ICE…

Just thought i'd mention this in case anyone else is into online games. There's a free open beta of Drift City running at the mo. Here's the URL: http://drift.ijji.com/ You have to DL the client and install it Sign up with ijji Click "Play Live" a few times until you get in. Ther's no Z, sadly, but you can choose to start in a 200sx, and all the rides are totally chavvable. It's an MMO, but quite a shallow one, more geared for quick fun than lengthy play.

I thought i'd post this in the non Z related section but actually it appears that this ebay seller has sold a few ZX engines... Basically I found out the supplier this guy uses, (Nippon Spares), they confirmed that they don't have an accurate figure on the mileage's of the engine's but approx between 40-60K, and that the majority of engines are simply compression tested and if necessary parts are changed... But this guy is misleading a lot of people, myself included, and I have reported him to ebay... Here's a copy of my statement to ebay: I purchased a Subaru engine on the 13/09/2007 from Motor Supplier, it was paid for via paypal on the 16/09/2007. The item fi…
