My other half's MX5 has a valve problem on cylinder 2 - diagnosed by low compression and emissions problem on the MoT test. Runs OK and still within tolerance so not a major problem yet. Does anyone have a feel for a reasonable labour time for sorting it ? Cheers Dave

If anyone;s in Farnborough today, avoid the Total garage on the way into town from the Queen's Head Hotl roundabout. Went in today to fill up. Put fifteen quid in (from empty) and petrol starts pouring everywhere (floor, side of car, me) - seems the fuel pump broke and didn't detect the back pressure. Went into the garage, they couldn't tell how much had been spilt so they couldn't refund. Mad?? I was bloody fuming .

C5 OOL, white Twin Turbo (not sure what spec) frequently seen in the Aerospace Business Park - you in this club? Mine is usually parked in the multi-story behind Systems Union house. James.

Not sure if any of you have already seen this, but I signed up a while ago and if it helps, then all to the good. http://www.intel.com/cure/

Spotted a vey nice looking uk yellow 300 yesterday, 2 mins from Johnny's was that one of us?

Could this be Mr Tony Lack on Coventry Road, Hinckley on Saturday midday? Can't be many this colour surely?

G*** EJB, Black import, parked on Hatfield Road yesterday around 13:00 in the St Albans area. Would have leaped out and said hello, but we were in a Saab and heading off somewhere! Anyone here?

Any of you guys ever raced one of these? ------------------

How're you doin' m8. I've been very busy with work recently...not enough hours in the day. I've got the aerial fixed and a few other bit 'n' bobs. How's you baby running? Oh, say hi to your missis for me......she's really patient. I'm just waiting for the weather to warm up and I'll be out with the tooth brush m8. Can't let Jeff down now can I? You'll be doing the same I'm sure. We should do another Derby meet perhaps next month...hopefully it will be warmish. See you soon, Van

Driving back this evening after the meet and i was really rather boggred!!! As i approched my little village in the middle of nowhere something caught my eye that causes me much amusement. You know those signs that warn you of slippry road surfaces, well on the black outline of the car someone had obviously found it funny to write 300ZX in white paint on the back of it!!! Wonder why!?? ROFL!! ZEDSTER

Down at the chester meet today and someone pointed out something very strange!!! Filled his car up with optimax (im really sorry mate i cant remember ur name again!!! even though u did follow me for ages!) and then noticed a stranghe whirring noise in his zed. Turns out that in the centre bar between the targas in between the courtesy light and the reading lights, there is a really small fan!!!! WIERD or what! there are two little slats for it and we all just wanted to know........... What exactly does it do????

Good effort dudes, nice to put all these names to a few faces!!! Cant wait for the vid of me dognut action!!

OK, so heres the story.............. Que harp noise and wavey effect! About this time last week myzed started to leek oil-BIGTIME!!!! At first i thought it maybe tranny fluid (no sexchange jokes please!) but then realised it was engine oil. It was coming from pretty much central of the car towards the front. Popped the car into a local garage who i must say have always been very good and then was informed than my rear main bearing seal was leaking. Ok ok..........hhmmmmmm let me think, gearbox and exhaust off maybe- sigh!!! yes i think so! A tenner for the seal and a couple of hundred quids worth of labour later and much swearing from the poor bugger working on …

Those of you that have fitted carbon fibre/ aluminium/ wood trim dash kits in your Z's - what did you do about the pieces that fit around the elec window switches on either door. I assume you bought a kit from the US and so their LHD versions won't fit the RHD we all got. Or am I missing a trick?? It looks like the rest of the bits are same for LHD and RHD?
