General Discussions - Non 300ZX

Just wanted to pass on respects to my cat Jess, he was 19yrs old and I had had him since I was 6... he was pretty slow and old but was always so loving and affectionate. He had become quite ditty and would sit behind the cars as they were reversing etc, tonight while driving down the drive next to the house he must have walked out from a bush just as out of sight... my front wheel got him.... Poor poor bugger, I think it was quick for him at least but I am really devastated. He was one of the family. To lose him I knew was going to be bad and upsetting eventually, but for it to be on my hands.... unbearable. http://williamschestnutts.files.wordpress.com/2013/…

I've never really had any problems with eBay or things (apparently) not being delivered. I have just literally had someone open a case over some 300zx lap belts that apparently didn't arrive. I know the royal mail are pretty useless but to open a case over a month and a half after they were posted screams fraud to me! As they were sent without a tracking number, there is nothing I can do about it except give this gypsy a refund! So just a warning to any one else selling anything on ebay, don't post anything to eBay user marek_gruby without a tracking number.

Is there any of you who can advise the best, cheapest (free would be good) way for me to build a website for my business? I aint no Bill Gates but I can find my way through most PC tasks... Thanks in advance, Steve

As title states, we've had the worst start to the week, which is going to mean a lot of plans are now canceled :( Went to work as usual Monday morning, only to get a phone call within a couple of hours. My boy has fallen over at school and broken his leg! Get to the hospital, have xray etc to find out his left leg is broken in 2 places below the knee and a spiral fracture going up the bone as well. Once he had calmed down a bit, he told us that his teachers at school thought it was just a sprain and that they had made him walk on it!!! To say I was fuming is an understatement! Plus on top of that they didn't even call an ambulance, but instead called my other half…

Trafford centre September 21st and 22nd, anyone else going?

Evening troops, Arriving at Euston Station mid Saturday afternoon, and need to get to Wembley Park. The missus and I, have a hotel booked right next to Wembley Arena. See a gig on the Sat night,:punk: and then the same journey in reverse on the Sunday. Question is, and I am a stranger to public transport mind, whats best ? Tube, Bus, Hop-on ticket thingy or this Oyster card thing ? Due to work commitments its a flying visit, no time for any sightseeing unfortunately ! Cheers in advance team !:biggrin: Alan..........

I'd just like to say thanks to all who voted for me at this years JAE.:punk: If you don't know I won the award for "Long time Contribution - 300zx.co.uk - JAE 2013" There was a slight blunder with this category as it was suppose to be a committee vote but we never voted on time and in the end it was decided to be a member vote instead. So again a massive thanks to all that voted.:clap: Cheers

Does anybpdy know if Dave at Footman James is still about? Trying to get some insurance but having a right game.

Im in the market for a toy. Not emotionaly ready for another zed at the minute tho. Ive driven nothing but Bmw's recently, and although I love them, fancy a break from the norm. Must be turbo'd and id prefer Rwd but would consider 4wd. Suggestions please.

Anyone happen to know where I might be able to get one? I've really settled on getting one for my bedroom in a gloss black finish but can't find one anywhere. Homebase used to sell one but doesn't look like they do anymore - http://reviews.homebase.co.uk/1494-en_gb/499992/reviews.htm Figured I'd ask on here..just in case...

I think it is stunning.:cool2:

I see you Daz :detective: are you going to JAE this year mate.

Doesn't any one or any company anymore stick to there word and do anything they say they will?? I have been in contact with so many company's over the month, you get one reply then fook all when it comes down to doing the job, these are proper well known company recommended by people and I have never had such piss poor customer service. I want a job doing and they say they can do it so fookin do it, just stupid!!!!! So fook knows how they get any decent rep. Then don't even get me started on joe public who I feel 80% of them are fookin useless and there word means jack!!!!! No wonder why I have done 99% of the stuff on my car as you cannot rely on any…

Can't believe it is 12 years ago today since New York was rocked by a horrific incident thoughts and respect to all the members of the public and to all members of the NYPD and NYFD who lost there lives

Who else is bored watching this game of football?

Bird giving his Wheels some TLC......Do ya worst LOL :D

Had a really great afternoon today. Ian Greenfield came down to ours to collect the wheels he has purchased from me, and although it wasn't all Zed related had a right laugh. Ian brought one of he radio controlled helicopters for us to have a look at, and also showed us some fantastic photographs of some of his diving adventures, as well as some of his Zed of course. Cheers Ian we had a really nice afternoon, and I hope you didn't get into too much trouble for being late home......lol.

Just a couple of questions ref JAE area. Is there any electric around for tent light etc? And the other is do they allow dogs about? I know the camp site is dog friendly but just wondering about the event rules themselves. cheers all

After watching that video on youtube of the Ferrari F40 Vs. F50 and people's comments regarding it being there pin-up car, I was wondering what other people's were? I distinctly remember mine being a Porsche 911 (996) GT2, as I had the poster up on my wall for many years! I know its not that much of an old car but Im not too old myself! And before that I had a poster of a Jaguar XJ220, which I had the honour of sitting in at Goodwood, and pretty much melted with giddiness haha So what were yours guys?

flying out to pathos cyprus with the better half on wecnesday..anyone been n give any non tourist places to go gonna get a 2seater quat n make our way to the vanition bridges but as a good map reader we can get lost..lol the northern territories are an option but with the sh@t in syria the now really dont want to go theyr so any advice n links to off the touristy traks would be awsome thanks

Havent seen it in about 10 years but flicked through and saw a nice Rover P6 on Eastenders. About 2 minutes later they had an over the top car crash and wrote it off :no: Nice to see my license fee going to good use...

Have any of you guys got a mobile contract the cheaper end of the scale that doesn't give you a free phone? I have an iPhone 4 and a monthly rolling contract with Orange that gives me 500 texts and 300 minutes (no data) for about £11 a month which I rarely go over. I got caught out on a bank holiday a month ago when my alternator went and after spending nearly 2 hours on the phone to the RAC's 0800 number my bill had tripled as 0800 numbers are not included in free minutes FFS! I'm after something with a bit of data as well now I think but how much do I need for checking emails and the forums etc each month?

i moved from the zed to a scoobie but how plasible is it to swap for a zed.. this is not a for sale or for swap but just a question of how many pple would be willing to spap a good powerd zed for a great powerd scoobie

Well, here it is. No more zed for me! I do miss the looks of the zed and the relentless power but this is a far more sensible option for me (damn I sound old lol!)
