  1. Oh, a bit of work there then. A month would be good to aim for though.

  5. Here you go EA region. This is the event I was talking about in the other thread. http://www.shows-uk.com/shows/springbreak/ Looks like it could be a good day out, especially toward the evening entertainment:whistling: I am defo going with the other half and would be good if I had the chance of meeting some of you there. If we had enough interest I will enquire about displaying our cars. I know they are not classics just yet but it could add to the line up. In the evening there is live music and a burlesque show-hope its not too cold:taz: Let me know what you think. Nice early show to start the season.

    Sorry guys. Take a look at this http://www.shows-uk.com/shows/springbreak/ and see what you think. Not too sure if we could display the cars, but a possibility I will look in to if we have enough interest. 12/13/14 April. Stonham Barns, just east of Stow Market. What do you think?

  13. Cheers for the comments Rich, I'll certainly give it a shot. As for the company car,lol, that is a given is it not! I just have to MOT it, Tax it and Insure it myself. For the EA members on here who I have not had the pleasure of meeting here is a little bit about myself: I have owned a 300zx since 2001 after being inspired by my Father who has owned Silvia's,Bluebird's,Primera's and my fav, a 100nx. When he purchased the 100nx from new he showed me the brochure and range of Nissans within it. Low and behold, the last section within the mag was dedicated to the 300zx. That was it,the car for me, I fallen in love. I would have to wait some years until I owned one though. Around the time I started driving (1992) I was caught up in the VW scene and could be found cruising the streets in my blue Beetle with green flames (the flames made it go faster, honestly). I progressed through some 'good and bad' cars including a 3 door Siera Cossie and the bad-MG Metro (what was I thinking)lol. As for the 300, best car by far and has cost the most by far in general maintenance. I am an Aeronauticle Technician by trade and work for Her Majesty in the Royal Air Force. I have been around the world with my Tornado Squadron and had some good times and hard. Please keep this in mind should I go AWOL from the forum from time to time, although with modern technology I am never that far away. I have 2 300's. Firstly a 92 manual TT LWB and an 89 import Auto TT, both red. I manage to repair most things and have built a greater knowledge utilising this forum. If ever you need any advise and I can be of help, please do not hesitate to contact me, I also have a garge full of tools and equipment should you want to come around for a brew should your car be playing up. I will be trying to arrange some events/meets in the future especially as Summer is around the corner????and will look to the EA members for recommendations. I have a few ideas up my sleve but the more ideas the better. My Hobbies are Photography and digital manipulation,painting (art), my 300's and my Wife. So if you ever need a proffesional photo taken, a photo altered/enhanced(photoshop), a real canvas painting of your car, help with your car, or need to borrow my wife (NOT FOR THAT!!) because you miss being nagged! I will hopefully be able to help. Anyway, to the guy's who run this forum and have trusted me with this role, well done and thank you's as usual, and for the EA members-I will hopefully see some of you soon. All the best. Tony.
  14. You should of asked to use the loo, now that would of been a story.Lol.
  15. Looks lovely and ready to do some basking in the sun when it arrives. Nice one mate, good news, one of mine next week!!
  16. I would try and get replacements mate to be honest. One of my zeds decided to shake off one of my damaged connectors that didn't have the clip part in the middle of 'burn up' with a Beamer. Bit embarrasing when you have to pull over because the motors running like a dog,lol. Ask on here and see if anyone has removed them from a breaker.
  17. F*#! me, its like a scene from the bridge of the Enterpise. Good work though, well done

    The mid suffolk show ground near Stow Market has a Spring Classic car show,loads of entertainment, auto jumble, yank tanks etc. Could be a good place to meet. Oh yeah, and beer!!!
  19. One of the first things to suffer from the high temperature mate. Not much you can do to prevent it, the plastic hardens and becomes brittle. How's the diagnosis going?

    Right then, so theres a few about. I will allow the sun to make an appearance in the Spring and will try to arrange a meet. Any suggestions will be grateful nearer the time.
  21. Agree with you totally. Nice to here, if only by one that we are appreciated. Thanks for your comments chaps.
  22. Being a keen F1 fan,back in December I wrote a letter to the F1 magazine ref Schumacher and won star prize, a Silverstone track day driving a GTR, Lamborghini, Ferrari and a single seat formula Ford. Anyway, I sent the email/letter whilst I was away in Afghanistan and the magazine couldn't reply to me because of our military mail system. When I got back the track experience voucher was waiting for me. Yipee, I've booked and I'm ready to go. Yesterday I get another surprise through my home email from the magazine editor who having visited Afghanistan and the troops some time back for another magazine, has now given me 2, 3 day tickets to the British GP. Nice to receive a small amount of recognition ( I know there is a few of us in the 'mob' on here ). So now all I have to do is find some accommodation near Silverstone for me and the wife. It will be our first wedding anniversary also. Happy days.:tooth:

    I don't mind being REO for the EA region, only thing is the numbers here are dwindling. Where about in sunny Norfolk are you off to and are you using the Z? As for meeting up, yes I should imagine a short holiday/break is not the time to sneak off for a meet. Lol Let me know if I can help out here on the forum in any way. Cheers, Tony

    Could well be talking to myself here??? Are there still active club members in the EA region or am I the last one? If not, anyone got any plans to get together or are you thinking of arranging something over the summer?
  25. Hmmm very interesting, shouldn't hang around for long. I didn't know manual convertibles existed. Very nice, makes me want to spend some money.
