    Depends on whether a kit or metal as I have 5 of them
  2. be good to meet up again see you both on Friday event is free and basically Martin relies on the raffle to cover the costs that are quite high so would be good for all to purchase a few tickets
  3. http://secure.hotels.uk.com/webbookings/?arrivaldate=26/06/2015&HotelID=28710&RefID=&arrival=2015-06-20&numnights=2&town=&county=&referrer=&masterUrl=&BookNow=Check%20Availability&token=52f75a66b0df3f98d1cc12701265e682 3miles away from Cark also slap bang next to race course
  4. how many nights as it seems it is the Friday that is the problem there are a few around Grange that are available
  5. Now confirmed they will be arriving on the Friday and staying over until the Tuesday and staying in the Bank House
  6. Hope they make it as always have a great times when they both are there
  7. Now then secrete squirrel I wonder if they may be the same couple who have messaged me
  8. Lets be brutally honest you are going to end up bankrupt if you are going to just use the Z32 as the main kingpin of a car sales business The actual market for the car is minimalistic and even more so when you start going to the higher price range examples IMHO you need to import other (dare I say it) more desirable and sellable makes of Japanese Cars that the general buying public will snap up quickly to give you a constant cash turn over as you are going to need this to pay the rent and put food on the table Again IMHO I doubt that you will sell one of your first Zs on here and are better marketing them on Pistonheads and Autotrader as Si has said. With regards to calling your business Z Shed or the like please think the long term as this will not inspire confidence to the general buying public although it may amuse the Z community for a short while There were a couple of quite good business names in the UK that a guy called Ken Chelton used and the were "Zxtra" and he also used "ZXS" which IMHO were clever for the time and related to more spare parts sales than motor sales Sorry to post so negatively about just importing and only dealing with Z32s but IMHO you will be left with two or three 300zxs on your hands for quite a few months which will restrict you from getting more stock in

  12. whether he is the right man for the job or not he won the vote And do you really thing the football world care about what a tiny little island says about things FA complain that the world cup should not be held in our winter time as it will disrupt our league fixtures What does the rest of the football world care as it does not effect them or their fixture lists as the amost all have a winter break And as for federations pulling out of the world cup en mass I will believe it when I see it don't get me wrong I detest Blatter and what he has allowed and has not had the balls to resign but it will just carry on exactly the same

  16. remember guys take a few minutes out of your time at japfest and track down Adam and thank him for all his efforts in doing it all this year really is great to see some of the younger enthusiasts stepping up to the plate and taking these things on A big well done from me on behalf of everybody who goes A big thank you indeed
  17. from the opening post on the main japfest thread http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?179818-Japfest-2015-Deadline-for-ticket-payments-is-Wednesday-18th-March

  20. not on here and not by me but there is the following being offered also gives an idea of what is needed for conversion Also I believe a fair few Z32 owners drawled over the installation at Billing a few years ago I HAVE A 1974 260Z, WHICH I HAVE FULL RESTORED OVER 15 YEARS. FIVE YEARS AGO, I FITTED A 1991 300ZX Z32 TWIN TURBO, WHICH HAS 350BHP AT THE CRANK WITH FULL DYNO DOCUMENTATION. I HAVE DECIDED TO REPLACE THE ENGINE WITH A CORVETTE V8 AND I HAVE DECIDED TO OFFER SOMEONE WITH A 240Z/260Z A ONCE IN A LIFE TIME OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE EVERYTHING NEEDED AS A PACKAGE. IE EVERYTHING TO CONVERT YOUR Z. THE PURCHASER CAN GO FOR A TEST DRIVE (CO-PILOT) IN MY 260Z BEFORE I REMOVE THE ENGINE AND PARTS. THE TWIN TURBO'S HAVE DONE LESS THAN 5K 1991 300ZX Z32 ENGINE, BEEN VERY RELIABLE X2 MANUAL GEARBOX'S CUSTOM BIG INTERCOOLERS & ALL PIPE WORK X2 ECU PLUG AND PLAY ENGINE WIRING LOOM NEW MK2 PTU X2 TURBOS X2 COMPLETE HEADS OIL COOLER FOR CAR GREEDY BOOST CONTROLLER PROPSHAFT

  24. Horses for Courses really I find that as I've got older my preferences and expectations have changed Used to love the Enfield Pageant and the Bromley show but over the years these lost their appeal for me Used to love the gatherings at JAE, the Z00* meets at Billing and ZedFest but now the camping side is no longer an option for me Japfest was fantastic in the earlier years but now it seems that there are less traders there caused by the internet and economic down turn Used to love any of the HSCC meets where there were about 5 Zs included in the race card Think my favorite event now is the Lakez where we hire a cottage and a few of us stay up there for part of the following week doing our own thing Also like the Donnington Historic and the Oulton Park Gold cup where there is a gathering of the earlier Zs and to watch 3 days of Historic Racing And also absolutely loved the 3 ZCCA conventions I attended in the States
