  1. Thanks for that...... I can't stop grinning....... Hopefully I will have her ready for an MOT soon........ Once she is running properly, I'm getting stuck into the audio build.........lol
  2. If you have legal cover on your insurance, get them onto reclaiming your excess after from the third party, neck injuries as it will be stiffer tomorrow..... make sure she see's a doctor to get it checked out....... If it wasn't her fault it shouldn't affect your insurance next year as long as it doesn't go knock for knock..... If her insurance gets full recovery then you should be fine...... Sorry Jeff, I have had loads of people hit my cars......lol Glad Lynda is okay....... Russ
  3. Well as most will know by now I have been rebuilding my Z this year..... I finished the welding about a month ago now and have been working to get the car running after a TT conversion.... A few days ago I primed the engine and new oil cooler ready for a test firing..... Today I got most of the bits finished..... all the injector plugs, coil plugs replaced with new ones, final intake pipes fitted, fuel lines connected...... I still have 3 small vacuum pipes to block off and the viscous fan to fit when it arrives and run vacuum pipes to the recirc valves.... But I turned the engine over just to see what would happen and she fired up almost straight away.... Oh my god she is loud..... I forgot how loud the exhaust is...... I turned her off after only about 20 seconds.... I couldn't resist..... I don't think one of my neighbours was happy...... lol I did forget one thing..... to drain the old fuel and replace it with new..... I was very shocked to hear her fire up and tick over as well as she did considering the fuel is at least 5 years old...... I shall be putting a video of the first firing up on here tomorrow....... Just need to tighten the alternator belt first..... and add some fresh top grade fuel! I am now one very happy Z owner............:clap::thumbup::clap: I would like to thank every single one of you on this forum for all your support with all my posts and question, parts and advice.... Especially to Redwine300, Ted, JeffTT, Bird, Joel, Mondo, Mikeybean, Tomomontana, Ruishy1, Shortz, Gibster TT, Yewcheck...... so many of you have helped me keep going..... If I forgot anyone, sorry..... so many have helped..... Club spirit at it's best...... Russ
  4. That is why the forum has the wonderful Funkysi.......:wink: I bet if it was small and fitted in a case he would pick up when he is over in the US..... I don't think bodykits, spoilers, engines or gearboxes would fit though.....lol
  5. Happy Birthday Mikey...... Y'old Git......lol..... Sorry it's late, but was doing silly shifts and missed the thread.........:happybday:
  6. I used lighter fluid........ worked a treat..........
  7. He promised bird he would stop sheepworrier grabbing him with those velcro gloves and having his wicked way with him......lol
  8. Jeez, Just caught up on here after working shifts for a week........... So sorry to hear about this Jeff..... And Mark...... It's a shame that the members on here couldn't all become share holders in the business and put Mark in to run it....... As everyone here who has a Z would then be a part of Zedworld...... Jeff would get his retirement and Mark his Job..... Sorry....... was only a thought.... Again Jeff..... Thank you for you support and advice you have given me and all the members on here for nothing, even with all this going on behind the scenes..... You are a Legend and a really decent guy who didn't deserve this.... Russ
  9. Hi Anthony, In a way I am glad you will be coming home, as at least you can relax in your own home as much as possible. Sorry to hear things can't be sorted out as quickly as you wanted them to. Hopefully being at home with the ones you love will help you get strong enough quicker..... I have to say after watching all the Cr*p you have been put through mate and still be fighting and as positive as you are is inspirational...... I am guessing when you are home, we will see loads of posts and threads with your name on it.......lol
  10. sheepworrier made one called 'shaun the sheep does dallas'.............lol
  11. This picture looks familiar......... Hmmmm let me see...... ........lol
  12. ROFL....... I love you two........lol
  13. Stop trying to cheat and get that exhaust........lol Put your money and cheap confectionary up then........lol
  14. Just found this one actually listed as fitting a 300zx...... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-5-inch-Exhaust-Downpipe-3-bolt-Gasket-Nissan-300zx-/260875478510?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3cbd63e5ee
  15. Found a 63mm on ebay...... 3 hole...... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-5-63mm-TRIANGULAR-EXHAUST-GASKET-TRIANGLE-3-HOLE-BOLT-/130845932734?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item1e77067cbe Might be right.......??
  16. Mine does that and dims..... I thought it was because at night it doesn't need to be as bright to see it as it does in daylight......??? Same as head units for audio, dim at night...... Get a multimeter and test that the clock has an earth and live going to it......
  17. Well deserved win there Chris....... congratulations...... I think you should get pics of all these trophies and post it in your garage area...... It would be like Gran Tourismo......lol
  18. stockings over pipes going to the turbo's..... stop crap getting sucked in.....?? Will run rough as MAF won't register..... I think....
  19. If I remember they are the same size as subaru?? My local motor factors had some.... Took in the pipes and old gaskets and the knowledgeable staff there looked and went straight to the correct bins..... They usually keep a vast array at quick fit ...... just need a sympathetic fitter.... not one that will charge you a fortune..... I paid about £12 for full set....... guessing it went in the drinks fund......as no receipt......lol
  20. Mine was done in 2000 - 2001, so 12 - 13 years with window in and still hasn't peeled or had a problem.... the painter was very good......
  21. What about that picture for a new http://www.300zx.co.uk poster or calendar with membership packs????.........lol
  22. For god sake Dicky..... it isn't a copier...........lol
  23. At least it would 'Stainless'......
