Every serious enthusiast should have one .. So long as they live in Florida! :D Have you bid on it Stevo? ;)

Thanks Eric, that's superb ... If it were the pinion, would that cause it to fail when it's cold and spring back into life when as it warms up? After all, it's been fine all through the summer months. Curious. Stu, I already have mate, already have!! :D:D;) Guess who I need to help me fit 'em? :rofl: CheerZ, JB.

LOL Simon - you do realise that's the best way to start another colour war .. but "common" is of course the right term for blue .. :rofl: And yes, I know they're not the most numerous! ;) :p

Can anyone help me, please? I'd like to purchase a new speed sensor to replace my current, erratic one, which has got an aversion to the British winter :D Question is this: do Courtesy sell this? I've lookeed but I'm boogered if I can find it. Anyone know their part no for it? Failing that - any other ideas to source one, outside of Mandella? I'd rather have a new one, as it seems to be a point of regular failure, so I thought I'd check that out before hassling Mr Andy Z! :D Any help appreciated. CheerZ, JB.

OK Nigel, Take your point, and clearly it's something that's very personal to you, and with good reason to be sure. That's awful mate - sorry to hear it. :( But in the case of the plates I've just got (for example), they are in standard font, but 3OO still looks enough like 300 to get the point across, so it's really not down to the spacing in this case. IMO, nearly every non-standard font I've seen looks, well, a bit naff to be honest ... especially hard to read italics - these number plates are bought by XR3 drivers, who probably also call their kids Romeo .. not cool. Also, as for the hit-and-run case in Manchester, whoever it was deserves to have the book thrown at them. I don't think anyone I know on here would dream of scooting off from the causing damage to someone else's motor - I know I wouldn't. Just 2p about generalisations, I guess.

LOL - can't you homos stay on topic for a second?? :);) Anyway, James (Jaffa) is quite right, I just got a set of plates from FancyPlates, and it's WYSIWYG, really, it is! :D What arrived is exactly what I wanted. And, since my plate is B13 OOX, I have to take issue with what Nigel is saying, cos it looks exactly like B1 300X, which is fine as far as I'm concerned. I've only left one extra space (hopefully, not a jailable offence) and it looks fine. Go for it mate .. get the G 3OOT one .. T is for Twin and Turbo, after all. :)

I agree ... Come on Gynn, it's sub 1 mile for you! But then again, it's before late afternoon on a Sunday lol :D:D CheerZ, JB.

Right, It would appear that I'm gonna be making a brief appearance only, as I can't get out of my lunch-time engagement :( So, 11.00 am is fine by me, but I'll need to be gone by about 11.50 .. still time to display Leonardo's handiwork, though - and time to give you your new toy, Stu! Is the venue gonna be Henry's table, that's what Phil mentioned when I spoke to him a few moments ago. If so, great, cos that means that I can stay for the maximum time. And don't worry Phil - I'll make sure I take "plenty of pictures" of my dirty fun at DL! :D:D Of course, I can pitch up earlier, but there's an element of Sunday and decency to take into account here! ;) CheerZ, JB.

Yeah ... I'm sure I can remember a picture of a highly-modded 300 with Supra rear lights and a highly modded front too ... looked bloody awful IMO (the front, not the back), I think it was at last year's Billing. Perhaps someone's gotta piccie, though? So, I guess the answer is yes - it can be done, after all that rambling :)

I know the car's not in the same league, but I think this girl is so cute!! :D:D:D:D:D Sorry about the slight fuzziness of the picture! :D

Awwwh thanks mate (sniff, again), I've gone all dewy-eyed .. I will confirm the times for Diggerland tonight, so I can deffo confirm I'll be able to meet up with you guys. Once I know the times we can firm up on a venue ... :D

Yeah, that's fine .. I can always flick the fluff off, prior to scoffing it ... still more hygenic than our local sandwich shop, I'm sure. :D

] Well done, Sir! :D:D Can you make mine a Star Bar though - not too keen on white chocolate ;)

Erm ... oh dear ... :( As previoulsy mentioned, I am going to DiggerLand (Yay!!! :)) on Sunday next, but am hoping to still make a meet in the early afternoon. I won't be able to make Slough though, no way .. :( Whatever you chaps want to do, though - don't worry about me (sniff) :cry: CheerZ, JB.

LOL Jimbo .. unlike your jokes - which are always fresh as a daisy! Of course ;):D

LOL: I have: Carbon interior kit 330 mm discs Brembo Calipers New numberplates Apexi AVC-R Apexi S-AFC G-tech Powermeter new dust-caps (lockable) 9x6 Infinity speakers Think that's it!! Do I get a lazy b*stard prize? :D:D:D

Actually, I saw some of these on e-bay the other day, and had I not just invested in a set of 99's :), then I would have bought them. I too, don't like the Fiat rears, but as per Adam, I am now starting to wonder about my taste too :D:D Am also thinking about graphics .. but not 'til I've installed me neons. Basmati or Arborio? :D

I have to admit you guys have come up with some stonking stuff there .. :D:D:D Most of my favourites are already there, but how about: Chop Suey (System of a Down) Wake Up (Rage Against the Machine) - you know, at the end of the Matrix ;) Nirvana (Smells Like Teen Spirit) And if you're gonna include SlipKnot (good call, Simon :)), It's gotta be "Left Behind" ... My own favourite Z track is definitely "Break Stuff" by Limp Bizkit, but someone's already beaten me to it! :D

Richard, I went last year and enjoyed it, glad you had a good time. Would have liked to have gone again, but couldn't do it this year. :( I think the Z-club are always there, they certainly were last year, but had a Z31 on the stand instead. I'm pretty sure there hasn't been a Z32 on the stand since 1992 or somesuch. :) I also think the Classic-Z-Register were there, and supposedly had a 350 on their stand. Did you spot it? Any reaction to it, if you did? CheerZ, JB.

Neer, neer, ne, ner neerr ... I am number 5! :p ;) I'd rather hope they managed the wheel removal process for you .. :) Good point, though .. :D

Hi there :D (Nice username btw ;)) No, it's the complete opposite to MR2's .. all UK cars are twinturbos, the NA was never sold here officially. So, if you see a Normally Aspirated Z, you know it's imported. A lot of the TT's are also imported, however, so you'll need to enquire about each one. As far as insurance goes, I've never come across anyone buying a Z to save money before! ;) However, get some quotes on UK cars and J-spec and see what the deal is! :D

Alex, Don't worry too much - I have found a place about 5 miles from my gaff that supplies dba discs - in fact, I have the same ones that you do, and the price was surprisingly reasonable, given what I was originally told about the discs on your car :rolleyes: Try here nice gold brakes CheerZ, JB.

LOL - Aylesbury is in the Midlands, isn't it? Any further North and I'd get a nosebleed ;) Seriously though, Sorry Neet, but I'd be interested ;) - let's just assume that the notion about charging more for TTs is surmountable, that surely can't be right, can it? Perhaps they just assume TT drivers have deeper pockets, neglecting to notice that for that very reason, they're often emptier too :D I missed the last one, so am keen to do one soon! :D

LOL Chris, anyone would be forgiven for thinking that you enjoy you and your sexuality being the centre of attention! ;):) Hot Chicks on the go? Got a job at KFC? :rofl:
