oops wrong place to put this!

more importantly... anyone want to try and organize a group to go on the track? I know we'll never get enough to warrant trying for a closed session. that's £600... so unless you get 30... not worth it. But if we have half a dozen, we could all get out with others. I know the NSX club is going for a closed group but are short people... so if we got 6 we could have a session with only 300zx's and NSX's

been away for a few days.... did I miss some excitement? Hilux Vigo - 3.0 litre version imported from Thailand. our daily driver Lexus SC430 - our daily driver 03 NSX - parked in garage...seemingly increasing in value?? '90 ZED - parked in garage... will this be the year it gets out?

Jeez Clint... sounding a bit bitter & upset there. Someone take a crap in your Wheeties or you just not been Thrusting much lately? :taz: I was reading it with interest to see if anyone had any of prized possessions of days gone by... like a 1990 YES. that's 1990 Golf G60 with the full Jabba sport upgrade, charge cooler ( air con ported to Intercooler )... damn that car was a blast to hoon around in.

Unfortunately back at work now... but camera pic wife took of me scoping out landing on a backcountry kicker on Sunday. Hiked it a few times... looking back at it, feeling like quitting my job, selling up and moving to the mountains...

Credit Card Company CitiBank had a team in India specifically handling the issue. Said that they've been hit really hard in London lately. Dad got the impression that they let it happen to try and track the groups activity?? hell of an expensive tracking exercise.. Parents didn't have to pay a dime. >I've heard that often there is a deal between the watch shops and the fraudsters, in that they come in, buy the watch.. but don't actually leave with the watch but instead with £500/£600 as their take. Watch store, keep the watch and then re-sell. Not sure if that's true... i.e.. serial numbers on sales, etc.

My folks had a 1 night stop-over in London last Spring on a trip to Africa. I took them to a nice Moroccan restuarant in West London; which they kindly paid for. On their CC statement at the end of that month.... $65,000 had been charged over a 2 week period. Mainly at a Tag Heur and Omega Watch shop (multiple visits to same shops).. + about £4K in groceries... probably to feed some extended Mongral family. NOT one phone call from the CC company...

AND FINALLY>>>>>> THE ORIGINAL BACK IN 1990......

Ok.. last few... Hmmm... someone tried to turn their NSX into a Ferrari?

JUST to Put the focus back on what it a truly awesome production Super Car.

There is a guy on the NSX site who has spent the last couple years preparing an NSX for one of the UK's racing circuits. It's having it's debut on the 7th of November at Brands Hatch. A few of us are going to be there to see how it does. They need a good result for some sort of pre-season qualification, or I think they may have been worried about stacking it! ; so I think they've got a professional driver in for it's inaugural race. Here's a thread with more pics: http://www.nsxcb.co.uk/testvb/showthread.php?t=6944 Here's the website with the project history, though looking at it now,, it lacks of lot of the build detail that used to be there.. basically they stripped it to the chassis and built it back from the ground up. http://www.projectnsx.co.uk/

Hmmm.. yep, the whole shark/Tuna mouth or whatever you want to call the front air scoop isn't as impressive nor well liked as the original. However, the rear valence / lights etc are a marked improvement. As well as the interior getting some stylish upgrades The pic of the blue one is just awesome, full stop. In fact, just saved it to my top NSX pics list ! ;) *it does has aftermarket sideskirts,front spoiler / Splitter ?( not sure that's what you call it), type R bonnet w/scoop + the Volk Alloys.. All of which give it a huge boost over standard.. In standard form, I think it's a tough call which will be preferred 15 years from now. I Thought about the type R bonnet myself... but at £1500+ it's an excessive outlay. But jeez... how much more an impressive/ aggressive a look would it give this pic, though, eh!?

definitely all the right ingredients for a future classic

Hey Pablito, I'm definitely up for Golf. Free the next 3 or 4 weekends... (other than this Saturday) Organize something ( Golf or poker ) and I'm there. I'll start checking this thread more regularly!

Can you let me know of any of these products out there?? I know on the nsxcb site they are trying to figure a way to do an auction system. Thanks for the help

Great couple days... Yes, Line up a poker night and as long as it's not on a bad night.. I'll be there.. hopefully this side of Oxford ;) Golf was great. course in immaculate condition.. they are still working quite hard around it... so not ready yet.

Just finished with work... off to catch some Z's of the non turbo nature.. Then off in the a.m. for some, ' it's really too early to celebrate the end of the recession ' errr.. celebrating :) Roman Road in the afternoon. poker night. and then 2010 course on Friday. "this is where dragons play" " a Haven for luxury " man.. if they had lap dancers... I think I'd have to call it "home".

I'm in Wokingham and would be up for a golf day. Berks, Bucks, Oxon area? *I Playing the 2010 course this Thursday & Friday at Celtic Manor.. :nana2: errr regretting that "12" comment already..... let's say on my best day with fairways on either side of 'my' fairway to catch any strays.. I have played to 12 this year!

Mizuno Irons... MX 23's I think... would never look at another set Gradually worked from playing off 23 to 12. Clubs aren't going to suddenly make you a better golfer... but they will suddenly feel better on contact, good cavity iron with improve consistency I got mine on ebay ( had been used about 6 rounds ) for around 50% off retail price. Ebay... all the way

47 - UK Model ;) Thinking about it. OK - a rare car Honda NSX - There are about 300 hiding in garages around the country. You never see one, really. I see Zeds 10X more often. That makes it about 10 times in a year. I imported 8 300zx's between '02 and '05 and used to see dozens done at the Docks ever time I went there. So at one point in the height, there has to have been loads and loads. Using a NSX as a numbers comparison - and the fact oodle.co.uk which puts together all 300zx's for sale in the UK right now at 161... Got to be 500 -1000 300zx sitting in garages, farm yards, back of auto repair shops in UK -- in state of decay. Got to be something like 1500+ on the roads... ? but that is just a guess.
