Rainbow ZTT

My m8 did that on his bike, lots of girl’s at a bus stop he thought he was in gear tried to pull away fast and didn’t move, lots of noise off the bike but more off the people laughing at him. Ha Ha

Totally agree m8 If I didn’t have the Z it would be a RX7. the engines are good people don’t know how to look after them.

I want big flames to come out of the back of mine, because I’m sick to death of idiots right up my back weaving in and out thinking they can over take me. AArrrrrr

I thought of getting a RX7 but I’ve still got a soft spot for the Zs, there’s something about them. The RX7 looks more up to date but I still like the look of the Z.

Wow.... nice bit of kit m8.

Been in some bands but mainly do home recording now. Made guitars that have been on TOTPs (WildHearts, The Music). This is a picture of the WildHearts guitar I made for TOTPs.

How cool is this so many rock fans. Anything that rocks is good for me, and another Rush fan on here to. Good stuff. Paul

Must send you a pic of the Rosewood SG I made myself. Also made a Rosewood strat. (it's all Rosewood to)

Thanks for all the remarks about my motor. So all the hard work was worth it; cheers m8s.

Check out what I did for a living. http://www.aprguitars.com I'm still in the guitar biz but in a different way. Best to keep the tuner as hardware save on the CPU.

Good to see what other people are doing with there Zs, nice to meet some of you people as well.

This is a tuner you can keep in line so you can check to make sure your guitars in tune all the time. You can also use it with a DC power supply. http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Behringer---TU100~ID~4918.asp

I'm the same age as you with full no claims, TPFF costs me £320 a year and that’s from A-plan. It helped that I had one of these cars before. I’ve just taxed my car £97 for half a year. Hope this helps m8. Paul

Try putting that through a car wash

That is shocking….. I got this from Tesco’s and what’s the world coming to, a big company buying from a company who can’t spell. Imagine going into the shop and saying ‘Could you tell me were the funkin chocolate is’ I think the reply to that would be ‘The funkin chocolate is over their now piece off you ash hole’ Heee….. Heee…..

In the darker days of my life I lived on a really bad council estate in Sunderland for a year so I could save up and buy a nice big house in the country (which I live in now). I was in the bedroom on the computer the misses was on the bed and we heard voices outside, there was over thirty chavs smashing up peoples cars, only good thing was my blue Nissan (the one I had at that time) was in a garage. They smashed the door mirror off my Vectra and before I could turn around my misses was away after them, by the time I got down stairs she was gone. I though this is not good so I jumped in my car and went looking for her. I was beside myself with worry, in the end I found her back at the house with a neighbour. They got a hold of two of them and called the police which took them away. The out come was; the police said ‘we can not prove they did it’ so they got away with it and I had to put my hand in my pocket. So now you know what I think of chavs. Paul

Why should we let little sh*t heads take the p*ss. I worked hard for what I’ve got they didn’t.

1991 it only had 37k when it came in to England (it’s got 50k now). All the rubber trim is in perfect condition and it’s very clean all round. Had to buy it although it had a few probs couldn’t miss out on a manual that clean. It paid off in the end. Paul

When I did all the work on the engine I got some engine cleaner and gave it a bit of TLC. I also sprayed the cam belt covers. Top tip: you know those square sponges with the green rough stuff on one side for dishes; I used that on the fan.

Now that's bad......

1.2 punto.... all the chavs are always around taking the p*ss when I'm driving it and when I'm driving my Z I never see them.

NO! Not again…. I bought my car just over a year ago, when I first looked it over it was fine the engine was as sweet as a nut with no ticking noises, no smoke and the gears selected with no problems. Marcz32 (who I sold my auto to) was kind enough to take me down to Bradford to pick it up. I took my time on the 100 mile drive so I could check properly when I got home. Went for a drive later that day and I thought the car was not right not very powerful, then the car started to back fire and try to stall at 4000rpm when the turbo came in. I thought I’d do a 60k service to start with (timing belt, tensioner, water pump, thermostat, Iridium spark plugs and oil change). When I did all this I also put a under pulley on. After spending some time on the body work I was ready for the off again, took the car out of the garage and smoke started to come for one side of the exhaust. It was about to go for its m.o.t. I was hoping the smoke was caused from the car not been used for a long time and the ECU had to re-learn the fuel mix. The car stopped smoking by the time I got to the m.o.t. centre and it passed with no probs. Two days ago just after it passed it’s m.o.t. I took it out and it didn’t try to cut out at high revs but on the way back home it started again. After putting the car back in the garage I could smell petrol and that was with the door closed. Time to have another look at the engine (I’ve been over this so many times before) but this time I found something (see picture). The hard pipe between the dump valve and the turbo hadn’t been connected properly but you just couldn’t spot it. After fixing the problem I took the car out again and there’s only two words I can say ‘F**KING HELL’ now it’s quick. With the Powerflow exhaust, Apexi filter, Blitz dump valves, Iridium spark plugs, under drive pulley and adjustable lowered suspension, it’s not a bad motor. The best thing of all is I’ve learned something new which helps keep the car away from garages which don’t know what there doing. I’m happy now. Paul

I love the colour of your car as is (I like purple)

Yep....

If you use candy colours (tinted clear lacquer) you can make up any colour. I did custom pro finishes on guitars for a living m8 (and made top end guitars http://www.aprguitars.com )
