If you could change the colour of your Z what colour would you do?
Why'd you wanna change it? It looks fine in the pic in your rides section. If you go for a complete re-spray in a different colour you'll need someone who's gonna spend ages prepping it, pulling it all apart and painting everything. That won't be cheap. What's this about "getting it wrong"?! If anyone you talk to (your dad included) advises you something like that you gotta just walk away! Pay the money and go with someone who really knows what they're doing or you could have big regrets.

Try the "attach file" box below, rather than the "IMG" button above ;) You can't keep us in suspense like this!

Fekkin' GORGEOUS!
I like that (the first one). Can't see any intercooler exit vents tho... maybe they exit into the wheel arch? Still, it's stylish without being OTT.

the Vinz gauge pod?
Not a dig, honest... but it's a little bit Commodore Pet idn't it? The SE one I've seen has mountings for the gauges directed at you. I still went for an a-pillar boost gauge tho because it's more line-of-sight. I reckon that's a good place for the lower priority stuff tho.

Oh, man! These sort of polls are great! :D That's 6 'others' vs 0 of anything else already.

I dunno what that one's like but SE do one (you probably already know Ian) and they're doing something like it to fit an AVC-R in.

Dump Valves Vote
Oh, stop it Stu! Thinking about slushy Stellas... I want one now! But to answer your question: I don't know (simple and to the point). It's probably just over 0 degrees... not quite frozen solid but cold enough to be icey. Or is this a trick question because alcohol has a lower freezing point, or cos the can is pressurised? To answer Mr Groves point... I reckon a pair of those whizzy party blower things stuffed in the ends would sound fantastic. Or maybe the farty bit of a whoopy cushion? Either's better than goosehonk.

Dump Valves Vote
I got them to prolong the life of my turbos in the same respect that I burp after drinking loads of beer to stop my guts exploding. But burping don't allow me to drink any more... maybe a little bit faster. OK, so I like how my beer burps sound but I don't drink because I like burping. I drink cos I'm a f*cking alcoholic. Where was I going with this?

I was bored
Stupid question... forgetting the sub box, is it game over for the roof glass going in the boot? I'd like to know how it feels too. I'm kinda thinking there's a lot of strength there already (around where the tailgate attaches). You've got a front one too, haven't you? How does that feel?

What BHP?
Hopefully(!) I'll have some plots to put up in a few weeks time (/just/ a few weeks more!). I don't wanna post figures until I know for sure... but they should be good :)

Anyone know how to
Hey, I aint saying nothing... it was Roy asking on here a while ago the cheapest way to get rid of his missus. Completely unrelated I'm sure ;)

Hold on... isn't this the wife you're divorcing?! It won't look like an accident if you're seen destroying her brakes altogether.

check out this cool mod
Fantastic... some left over bits of dalek, lurvely slap-on wheel arches, and a spoiler so phatt the leccy aerial only makes it out two inches. I particularly like the mag-mount CB antenna... special. I dunno about the backwards door graphix... isn't it arabic or something?
-
What to do....
Play some Project Gotham... it's the only thing that's almost kept me sane. And I should also say my girlfriends kinda helped... but you can't have her.

Dam, new T bar roof glass required
These are for the previous model 300ZX (Z31?). I assumed he wanted ones for Z32 (what I've got).
-
Dam, new T bar roof glass required
I might still have a spare one of these... the firemen popped it out and chucked it in a field before chopping up my last Z. There shouldn't be any blood on it. It's probably a bit muddy tho. Which side do you need? I can't remember which one I've got - need a hunt around the garage.

Bloody Lotus
Pop it in your boot, then park in the garage. Everyone's happy.

I think I've OD'd
Oh man! I had prickly heat once. Having never had it before, I couldn't work out what the f*ck was going on. It /really/ itched bad. I thought someone'd dipped my T-shirt in itching powder for a bit of a laff! I'd say have a cool bath, but if you're feeling drowsy it's probably bad advice unless you can somehow keep your head propped up. The only other advice is sensible sh*t you already know... drink some damn water, not beer! :D

bmw m3 new convertable NEEDED A PUSH
Limiter?

Anyone here?
Haha! :D No problem. To be honest, I'm trying to keep a level head and not expect to much, and I guess they're not throwing big figures at me in case it doesn't go that high... but CRIKEY! That's pretty impressive. Just don't tell anyone ;)
-
Anyone here?
Arse-kicker yeah. But where'd you get 600 bhp?! 500 maybe. And maybe a bit more. But I don't think it'll hit the 6's! I'd be major chuffed if it does. But it's not what I'm expecting. Who's been talking to who, eh?
-
Anyone here?
Yeah, tell me about it... mine's BUSTED AGAIN! You get enough speed up and you might make it across that little bit of water. I think a Southend meet in a few weeks time might be good while the sun's still out.
-
Anyone here?
Tonight... Southend seafront, parked under the pier... a black Jap spec with a shiney set of wheels (H-reg I believe) and a red UK spec with a cool plate. Don't see enough of these around Southend. Maybe someone should get a meet together.

Ferrari
I'd like to have a go with one of those. We've got a customer who's got the "normal" version - a measly 400-odd bhp. OK, so it's light as a feather that's been on a diet, but with 100+ bhp more, I reckon I could give it a run for it's money. And what a lot of money... my car cost ~a fifth as much. Engine note? OK, when they're on song they sound nice, but low down they sound like a fart in a bean can! :) Do I sound jealous or somink? Just wish I had the sort of money to be able to buy one of these.
