  1. I know they make a good replacement system for the 350z - you may want to try searching over on their forum for a report on quality... http://www.350zuk.com. CheerZ, JB.
  2. Hi All, Anyone out there suggest a good place to get some new numberplates? Mine are really manky, and I think they're dragging down the look of the car significantly :wack: Any tips welcome... Thanks... CheerZ, JB.
  3. Hi mate, looks like quite a nice example, but, my missus had a '99 318is coupe, and I have to say we were always pretty disappointed with the economy... It was a nice car generally, but the 5th gear ratio was too low, which may have been one factor in the poor-ish economy.... I've got a 95 525 tds as my family "cheapo" - only 143 bhp, but I do get high-40s on a long run, and it's as comfortable as you like - I'd go for a "5" everytime - more room for the family too! HTH... CheerZ, JB.
  4. Hi Mate, Sounds like burger time is nearly upon us then!! Missus doesn't have the SLK any more - it had to go to pay for the stamp duty on our new gaff (how depressing) :cry: Still, we were down to two cars, til the arrival of my new Z... ;) I'll give you a call soon, CheerZ, JB.
  5. Paul, if I offer to buy you a burger - will you read this out to me??? Top quality mate - PMSL... :rofl: CheerZ, JB. P.S. Sorry to hear about your mate's daughter Bassologist, hope it wasn't too serious...
  6. Bump - sorry to be a pain - but I would like to be able to PM please. Thanks, John.
  7. Sorry - probably down to the way I renewed (Sorry Andy P), but I can't PM or post if for sale etc, and I have paid my £15 - honest guvnor' Can someone sort it for me please? CheerZ, JB.
  8. Hi John, Thanks mate - I'm glad you've still got her; how's she going? :) Yes, I'm back in a Z - a '94 Red UK Manual - very 'priddy she is too. Photos to follow, once I've given her a polish! :dance: CheerZ, JB.
  9. Glad to see you've found one mate, after some other bugger snatched away the "other" red one!! :D Congratulations - welcome to the "red club"... :dance:
  10. LOL - There's nothing like a warm welcome - and that's nothing like a warm welcome (back).... :tongue: Nice to see things haven't changed in my absence!! ;)
  11. Hi There, Just coughed up £20 by PayPal, address johnboyz32@hotmail.com - was previously a subscribed member but since it lapsed a while ago and I never had the stickers, thought this was the best option. Inside stickers, please. Many thanks, John. :)
  12. Hi Steve, how ya doin mate? Should be re-appearing over on the other channel too soon - really wanted to wait until I had the car, but then this thread appeared about my new car!! :D Not sure about Silverstone, would need to check with the diary secretary, and she's still in the land of Zzzzzzzz... I've seen the deadline, though, so will let you know in time, hopefully catch up soon. CheerZ, JB.
  13. CheerZ chaps - good to be back (or about to be)... Guess, I'd better get my sub paid again! :D Joel, Yes, I think it's the same car - he is also advertising a UK Auto - but to be fair, I didn't see that one at his "car lot" (back garden). He has a blue import too which I think is an N/A - which was there and looked quite tidy. In general he had a few decent Jap cars back there and a TT :smash: - seemed like a nice bloke to me, after thinking he could have been a little more inspiring on the phone. As I say - time will tell... now, I can't bloody wait 'til Tuesday! :nana2:
  14. Cheers Richard! I think my days of qualifying as a "little oik" are sadly long-since gone! ;)
  15. Hi Paul, How ya doin? Bout time we had some lunch-time burger scoff!! Hope all's well at Vikings... Soon as I pick her up, I'll give you a shout, you can tell me all things I need to do!! I wasn't gonna mention the purchase, 'til I'd actually picked her up, but since this thread started.... :p She's not perfect - couple of trolley dents, and unsure about the central locking, but she's got a stack of Nissan History, and seems pretty un-molested on the whole. Boosts nice too - something I don't get much of at the moment in my plodder, BMW 525tds!! Now, here's the question - how long will I be able to resist the modding mania? Certainly, looking on here ain't gonna help much! :nono: CheerZ, JB.
  16. Sorry chaps... It was me that bought it.. :) JB is back and red.... :dance: and looking forward to picking her up!! :D I hope it's a good buy, was looking for a stocker in red... so only time will tell. CheerZ, JB.
  17. Congratulations to you both, matey - hope all's well with you :dance: CheerZ, JB. (must update that damn sig ;) )
  18. Welcome back, mate!! :D Good luck with the re-build (you're a brave man; so go for it!!), and hope to see you soon... at a Z meeting after my wedding, I should think. Hoping to be Z32-ing again myself, soon... :D ;) CheerZ, JB.
  19. Booooo! Tossers!! :D Just get yourself some Airfix paint mate, give you something to do in the evening, when you're not polishing the rims (and no, that's not a euphemism ;)). CheerZ, JB.
  20. Hmmm ... a bit weird that one, mate .. since the 265/275 part is supposed to be the width in mm, AFAIK. Then the second figure (275/30) is the aspect ratio, so 30% of 275 in height, I think... Therefore, the number should be a like for like comparison... weird. :D You been at the beer in the morning again, James??? :duffer: CheerZ, JB.
  21. :hyper: (Your wheels, mate - put the cheque in the bank at lunchtime, sorry it's taken so long) :) Can't wait to see them installed. CheerZ, JB.
  22. What about your dodgy stud??? Have you managed to get it out yet? We need to see those wheels mounted!! :D CheerZ, JB.
  23. Yep, Airwolf for me too!! :tongue: Who wouldn't have wanted a helicopter that was indestructable and could climb to the statosphere and beyond!! :D I think I could live without being called "Stringfellow Hawk" though. :xxx: Dukes of Hazzard and Miami Vice close runners though. To this day, if I see someone in a dodgy light coloured suit and tee-shirt, can's help but think off good 'ol Don Johnson ... :rofl:
  24. I think it's ace. Nice to see something different, although agree with Clarkey, in red Alcantara, yummy. As it happens, I dream of a black Z with a red interior, so not surprising I like it!! :p
