  1. 99spec lights and thats finished looks wise :D Ps: Have you spoken to your bloke yet? You ok with holding on to that stuff and do you want me to sort out the rest now into paypal?
  2. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ABSOLUTLEY-STUNNING-NISSAN-300ZX-300-ZX-TWIN-TURBO-2-2_W0QQitemZ290072234074QQihZ019QQcategoryZ18238QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Its the black tints and wheels that make the car.
  3. Again im sorry mate :) If you only have that box mate i have one collecting dust in the loft so can send that to you if you cant find anyone to try yours on. If you want it give me a shout and ill get it down and check it out.
  4. Not sure fella but your box might be faulty dave. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Sorry.... Im very bored and tired and it was funny at the time.
  5. Thats exactly what i was trying to say above but much much shorter and clearer :rofl:
  6. Carl mate, Some good points there and they are taken on board and this is what the post was for in the first place. Its not the colour isnt exactly as i want... I hate it more and more everytime i see it (no offence) which is not a nice felling to be honest. What you class as a stunning colour someone else would hate. This isnt a put down on white zeds but i cant live with it. Thats the first thing needing changing and the quote to do it properly in a bare metal as the white is its second colour by the same place as Jason Farrow allthough you get what you pay for works out at a lot. I dont like the interior, Its very clean and standard but again not for me. See my other post on the bare essentials to tidy it up was over 3.5k could be done cheaper but im not that kind of bloke. Then there is the engine, To get what i want after speaking to a few people would cost the wrong side of 15k to do it to the best condition it can be. I have a car that needs all of the above and what i want to do is buy one thats had the most exspensive part done ie: engine Hopefully its had the body done aswell leaving me the interior. I never said i wanted a half finished car :confused: I said i wanted it mint but if it left me the interior to do then thats a sacrifice worth having. I could throw 30k plus into a car or buy one thats had that kind of money thrown into it for no where near that. The car i buy will be one that i like and not completley the opposite of what im after as in it will be as close to my taste as possible so that i dont have to go mad on it. This hasnt been an overnight decision, ive spoken to topless garage, jason farrow, andy lines and so on and after all these conversations its clear this is the way to go. Might seem mad to you but to me it makes perfect sense fella :D and the importing one is a last choice as id take one in the uk with less over one in japan with more for that exact reason you mentioned about the history and is exactly what i did with mine, read over every post concerning my car, saw all the problems she had had and what was fixed on her so i know what you mean kind of.
  7. :rofl: I thought i was an angry bloke ;)
  8. Is the joke being turned on me or something here? Ill put at the bottom of my posts whether its a humour based one :rofl: I didnt send him my details, bank or anything else, it was posted here for a laugh as im bored.
  9. Just received this email :dance: "Hello This letter may come to you as a surprise due to the fact that we have not yet met. I have to say that I have no intentions of causing you any pains so i decided to contact you through this medium. As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe everyone will die someday. My name is Razaq Samiu, a merchant in Dubai, in the U.A.E. I have been diagnosed with prostate and esophageal Cancer that was discovered very late due to my laxity in caring for my health. It has defiled all form of medicine and right now, I have only about a few months to live according to medical experts. I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for anyone not even myself but my business. Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and only focus on my business as that was the only thing I cared for. But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world. I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that I know my time is near, I have willed and given most of my properties and assets to my immediate and extended family members and as well as a few close friends and Schools in the UAE. I have decided to give alms to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in the U.A.E, England and Ireland. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this my self any more. I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and donate the money, which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria, they refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them. The last of my money which is the huge cash that I deposit in a bank in England Uk. I want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatched it to charity organizations and let them know that it is I Razaq Samiu that is making this generous donation. I am writing this from my laptop computer in my hospital bed in England where I wait for my time to come. If you are interested to help me i will give you more information about this like the amount that i deposited in the bank and Contact of the bank so you can contcat them. I will also send you a picture of my self when i am on my laptop in the hospital. Note that you will take 20% out of the funds and give 80% to the charity organizations. I pray that God uses you to support and assist me with good heart God be with you. If you can help respond back to me on my private email: razaqin3@yahoo.es Razaq Samiu" Ive just emailed him my bank details and then the drinks are on me :D
  10. Going through the same problem as you mate. I had to decide to sell mine and its through my own choice not because of any problems with her so if your having crap after crap with yours mate then bite the bullet and go for a solid minter. Just keep all the good bits for yourself :) and stick them on your new motor.
  11. I might aswell let them go with her as it will triple the value lol Ill hold you to that mate, Just got to find the rest of the car to go with those items :D When you planning on starting your new venture?
  12. Pm me your number mate and ill give you a quick call if thats ok? Do you have the specs of yours or we can do that on the phone.
  13. About selling one or which way to go mate?
  14. I do get what you mean and can understand it but in a way unless you buy a stock car you will allways have someone elses footprint on there. Im guessing 555injectors dont cost £500 second hand which is my thinking on buying a modded car, if that makes sense in a weird way, so if someone else has built an engine from scratch then id reap the savings as im sure your V8 didnt give you back anywhere near to what went in. Id love nothing more then to do it all the way from the ground up but i dont have the money for it and also i see you done work on yours yourselve which i just dont have the brains or skills to do so means paying a hell of a lot of labour out.
  15. I hope mine works out like your story mate, really do :) Ill get there but its just finding the right car at the right price so time is evrything on my part. Ps: Im also worse at cars then you, unless its a dot to dot im lost!!
  16. I appreciate that mate :) I guess youve been there and know how it feels. If it comes off ill def be up for a meet and even if it doesnt for a while yet then ill pop up to one (if allowed) in the golf :D
  17. Id put my name down for one of these depending on price and explanation of what the hell it is/does :rofl:
  18. I think thats what he meant by all day long fella, but is worth more. I was saying about you never get back what you put in to cars and he was saying that at that price it would sell before he finished writing for sale so i make you right as by what i hear its a one off car :)
  19. I dont think im in CJ`s range TBH mate, I was told today that Andy Lines car would sell all day long at 20k which in my best Dragons Den voice IM OUT. Ill give Kirbz a shout, didnt really think of importing one myself so well worth a shout. I know it takes time to get a minter unless like you one falls from the skies :rofl: ;) but its the cost side thats the killer on mine not so much the time. I just cant throw the money at it that some of the cars on here have done unfortunatley!! So am after the best i can get then bit by bit whilst having a stunning car can change to my style not have to design the chassis from bolts up if you get what i mean. Cheers
  20. Email is wodonovan@aol.com or sirbergkamp@hotmail.com that would be great thanks :) Spent the day down there today jason, top bloke and amazing work!! Some of the cars that were there are amazing let alone the pics of the ones he has done! You need to get some photos of yours up there as he is planning to do a wall of cars.
  21. I bought mine about a month ago (friday before chrimbo) and have been planning to complete the car from scratch to what i want, after talking to quite a few people and spending the day with a bodyshop looking at all the options to get this car the way I want it doesnt make sense money wise for me to do it to the car ive got :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: I dont have the money for a showcar or to bring it up to the level of some of the members on here, I thought it would be cheaper then it is and is my fault for not doing my research first. I am not a fan of the pearl white so it would have to be bare metal resprayed as i wouldnt be happy with just a colour change, I thought i could live with it but unfortunatley it bothers me too much to live with. Shes a stunning low milage car and is great in everyway but is very much standard engine wise and the interior is nice but just not what i want. The list ive got and the idea in my head of how I want my ZED to look doesnt weigh up. Custom interior is a must and to the exact colours i have in mind, If it was just this alone then it wouldnt be a problem, I can take this to any car i get but when added to all the other bits means its the wrong side of exspensive :rolleyes: Getting the engine to near 450+bhp is a feat on its own let alone with everything else. Sorry to go on but ive started to realise this over the last week and have ordered and bought crap loads of stuff for her (see my rides) thinking it was going to happen but today is when after talking to a bodyshop and Topless garage that it really hit me that i would be better off throwing all the money into a beast of a car and then bit by bit change to want i want rather then trying to build a brand new car. The 2hr drive back from the bodyshop was horrible, Ive really fallen for mine but i went in with my heart and not my head, I should have done it the other way around to what i have. :slap: The good news out of all of this is that im after a new ZED :) Theres a few members motors that id love to buy but feel it would be rude to ask before offered :rofl: Anyone with a resprayed or absolute mint paintjob and 450bhp pref 500bhp ZED that has thought of selling and wasnt sure then heres a little push. Ive got a Very (in my mind and more then most of the cars on here have sold for) decent amount of money in "CASH" for the right car, I will also have to sell mine too which adds even more to the pot but i dont need to sell to buy yours unless its MAC`s or CJ`s :rofl: then sell the missis and kid, tvs, pc, golf, family, friends and then myself as a rent boy and i could just about afford the engine!!!! Any advice or help in my quest would be very much appreciated, As soon as i left the bodyshop i wanted to call a fellow ZED owner to ask them their thoughts but havnt met any of you yet, I spoke to Jason Farrow for ages the other night and it was great to get a different perspective on things. I also dont need to be called an idiot as i allready know this. Sorry for the essay but if any place can help me its here :)
  22. Can they? I thought some of the Lids are sealed so you cant top up the levels :confused:
  23. Can anyone recomend a decent battery that can be recharged please? Will be running an alarm and audio set-up and as its a weekend/summer car it sits for a while before being driven about so might aswell get a decent one :)
  24. Just spoken to bob :D Hopefully fitting a toad as mentioned above in about 2weeks, Great bloke very helpfull and will travel to you, Special prices for members too :) as he has done 117 cars just from here!! Done away with the remote start as it invalidates the cat1 for insurance as clifford are the only approved remote start insurance cat1 and after speaking to bob for a solid, reliable alarm the toad is best.
