Don't put your hand through the steering wheel to reset the tripmeter thingy when you are turning a corner. LMFAO -like I did last night in the Golf and nearly crashed. ........why am I telling you this? Come on.....lets have some p1ss-taking! .........:p

(hijack - sorry) TONY!!! did you get my email mate? PM me.

It looks pretty certain my car won't be ready by then :( I will know for sure tomorrow night when it will be ready. Sure I will attend anyway! :D

80mm? No, not that much, these were the biggest drop springs I could find though. MJP do made to measure springs. You can specify the drop and the % in upratedness. They are not progressive though but still a good price.

The more load you put on them (on a bend etc) -the more they progressively stiffen. They are loads better than standard rate springs. The ride on my AVO's is perfect too and the car sits spot on (for me anyway! not too hard but nice and firm) Jeff had got the shocks in for me and ended up putting the springs on - he said it was the nicest sitting Z he's seen and wanted some. I forget now but someone on here can get AVO springs for about £80! I can look up some old posts if you wanted. Let me know bud. Or search on 'AVO SPRINGS' and sure it will come up.

Fas, there is place around the corner to me called Croydon Race and Rally and they sell these clamps, but mate the are NOT a very good idea. They are a bit of a bodge tbh. Its just a thought but standard rear shocks are only £35 and the springs I have all round on mine (AVO) were only about £130 and they are progressive too. See the pic for when I had 18's on with these springs. Its just a thought, you don't seem to have too many options. (edit) Just looked at that pic you have attached, that isn't what I thought you meant. What I thought you meant is alot worse than that!

Pete..........jsmc. :D

LMFAO! I reckon a grand.

Here's a link to some excellent buying guides http://www.300zx.org.uk/tech_20.htm The majority of 300's are 2+2. I have had 2 mates in the back of mine and it is a squeeze but possible. 2+0 are around, a little more rare. Being more of a GT car, I think it is really comfortable. A kitted Z for under £7k might be pushing it a bit, but you never know.....keep looking around, especially on here! The usual mods are induction kit, exhaust, boost upgrade. That will give you a healthy increase.......after that it gets a bit more expensive.

I changed one of my reverse lights to a fog but was tricky to get it bright enough for the mot pass.

I have changed all my front studs to Nismo longer versions. I wrote up somewhere how they press out and in. I will find it for you.

I have thought about this some more.....over dinner.........and yes, that would definately be a non-standard induction kit.

It denotes that it is prob a Jap! :rolleyes: :slap: :D

Hiya bud & welcome. Get the pics up asap! Where abouts on the south coast are you?

This is a pic of a pic, not very good I'm afraid. I should have my Z back this weekend and will take a proper pic with my dig camera.

Def not standard bud. :D

If you can't make it John, lets keep to our mini meet. Be good to see your Z all done.

I could make it to Slough (if thats where everyone is going to be - and my car is ready!)

Its the rears that are £35. Fronts are alot dearer and when I found out it was cheaper to go aftermarket iirc.

Lewis would crucify him. The only fight Jones wants is Tyson. Pete was surfing the channels looking for Extreme Knitting. :dance:

John.....your taste is going a bit fishy.

My car ain't gonna be no-one's bitch........it is gonna be the pimp of the forum. :D In fact, your car is first in line for a slap. :slap:

I think they would've been better if those lights didn't poke out so much. And also they look really old! But something to be said about something different.

LOL. You might want your car to look like a Xmas tree - but I don't. :rofl:

Anyone see the fight? How on earth did Jones get the decision???????
