right exhaust noise
My N/A probably sounds the same as yours. Leon/Smithy headers, decats, and HKS Hyper exhaust. It was the loudest car at the last rolling road, especially with the baffles out! Soundproofed the interior, and installed a very loud stereo to cope with it.

Hampshire Pagent of Motoring - August Bank Holiday Weekend
Looks like this may be a no-go. With one week to go we have one confirmed attendee and one maybe from the Zclub and two maybes from 300zx.co.uk. The Gold Cup is also on this weekend followed by Zedfest and JAE so may be best to cancel. I will be on holiday until Thursday so I will not be able to follow up with everyone. If you are still interested in attending, PM me with your address and I will send you a stand pass.

Septembers meet
Central's good for me! Will need to plan it for late Sept as we have JAE at the end of August followed by Zedfaest in the middle of Sept. If you like I can start looking for a good venue.

Suspension
I'm happy with my set up, KYB's and Eibach springs. Used Ground Control coilover adapters which convert almost any shock into an adjustable coilover. Check my ride for the full spec. Be carefull though, once you start down the suspension road it's hard to stop! http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=456

Hampshire Pagent of Motoring - August Bank Holiday Weekend
Thanks Nick! Unfortunatly clubs are only allowed a 10 car stand so I have 10 stand passes for Sunday and Monday. These are good for free admission and will go to the first people to sign up. It would be nice if we could get a good variety of cars with at least one example of each type, so I will give the first 240, 260, 280, Z31, Z32TT, Z32SWBTT, and 350's first priority.

Great News.......
So happy for you little red! Dont know all these PS3 games as I prefer shooter games on my Xbox. Voted for Burnout Paradise as it sounds cool.

A sad day
Woah, sorry to hear this Nick. Try to hang on to it, it is a very special example. If you do decide to break I'll have the Nos, Doolz intake, flywheel, clutch, and third dibs on the brakes.

MotoGP - BBC and Sky
Agreed, those first 5 laps had me out of my seat and screaming at the TV! Casey seemed to compose himself by the time he got to the podium, this could be the start of a great rivalry.

North to South Run - Julys Monthly Meet - Sunday 20th
No pics from me as the battery in my phone died... I think a couple of people took a few. It was a great day out with a good mix of cars. Drove some great roads and parked up on Hayling island for a bite and a drink. Thanks to Nick for arranging another good meet!

Crashed my car
Oh man! Always liked your car, and know how much you enjoyed driving it. If it is written off there are plenty of good shells around.

Low bridge!
Hopefully it just clipped them but I think your probably right. I was wondering how long it would take before the first "only in America" comment was made... How about Russian drivers - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=aNppZoAerSk&feature=related or Japan (very graphic) http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=VgGcpF-0suQ&feature=related

EGR plates
Made my own blanking plates to cover the holes in the plenum. Pretty rough job as I worked some flat steel stock using a jig saw, grinder, and file. Not pretty but did the job and cost nothing... Removed and plugged all the various vacuum lines but left the egr unit on the back of the engine as I couldn't get my fat hands in there. Hard to say if it changed the way the engine ran as I did the manifolds, full exhaust system, AIV, and Apexi filter at the same time.

Just started reading at 25, lol
Three authors you should look out for - Stephen King, Dean Koontz, and Clive Barker. Dont think they've ever written a bad book!

job interview on mon
I'm sure you'll be fine darlin! I recently had to go through a number of interviews after being employed for over 20 years. Most places use a style called behavioral interviewing, where they ask for examples of when you demonstrated the qualities they are looking for rather than focusing on qualifications. With your background running your own business (and your gift of gab) you should do really well. Either way it will be a good experiance, it took me 3-4 interviews before I got really comfortable with it.
