Apollo 32

have to agree with you there on all counts. Cant wait to get back to Vancouver

I've pretty much seen most of Canada now and I have to say it's the most beautiful country I've been to. Especially British Columbia and the rocky mountains. Unbelievable roads! Havent seen so much of the states but once my Z gets out here i'm going to drive the whole west coast of the USA right down to south America. something I've always wanted to do. Lots of oppertunities for surfing there! Members should ship there Z's out, make it a club trip! (if it breaks down parts are almost free out here!)

Being an Ex commonwealth the Canadians Love the Brits. They are a very friendly bunch always asking questions about the queens great nation. When I came to Canada the first time I was a single man and spent some time working the doors in a few clubs. I have never had sooo much attention from women in my life! "Oh my god are you from England, you sound so sexy" thats what they said all the time. Just like in the movies! Unbelievable. and there all beautifull! :dance: :dance: :dance:

hi Pete Before I rattle off too much information are you thinking of bringing a family or doing by yourself? Andy

You could buy a Detached 4 bed house with a double garrage and a swimming pool next to a lake near Toronto for 120K. Crazy :dance: :dance:

It is difficult leaving family and friends behind but the world is such a small place nowadays in the jet set age. I can get back to Plymouth from Winnipeg in 10 hours door to door, and if you fly at the right times only costs 250 pounds return! would take me just as long to get back from Scotland! (cost me more in petrol in the Z aswell) I'll be back at least 4 times a year.

look nice buddy :)

At the Moment I'm in Winnipeg (central Canada). but will be moving to Vancouver Island next april. Absolutly beautifull there! I was in whistler last year skiing. All I can say is Amazing! hope you enjoy it

Have to agree with you on that one, spent alot of time working in Italy. Mad *******s on the road though!!

Given the choise where would you chose to immigrate? Just currious as i've just done it. Moving to Canada is the best thing I've ever done, be happy here for a few a years here and then maybee Australia? I do love the UK although lots of things about it frustrate me nowadays!! I will come back to live there one day!

Some of the many reasons I chose to leave England. I do miss the pubs though :duffer: :duffer: Hope you all have a good time, wish I could be there for JAE :cry: :cry:

Lived in Plymouth all my life mate, But just moved to Canada last month to be with the missus. My Z is still in Plymouth, My dad's taken charge of the beast untill I get it shipped to Canada in Sept, so you may well see it driving around. Plan is to live out Here in Canada for a few years and then back to Plymouth. Mind you, once I get used to the super cheap lifestyle out here I may not come back! Regards Andy

If your in Plymouth try Carl at Sorensen Road sport. He's got some good quality guages. He's located at faraday mill. Andy

Canada. Didn't expect to see that as an option! Used to live in Plymouth

We have just had the sport and compact car show here out in Canada. Only one Z32 on show but lots of other Z cars out here. the Z31 is very comon! One car that did catch my eye was an S14 with an RB26 and a huge tubby installed! very impresive! Pictures are a bit dark as the show was indoors.

It is a bit close to the America for my liking but the Canadians hate them to, and luckilly there aint no french in my area. I'll try to keep well away from Qubec, I hear they hate the English down there. Definitly alot of snow here in the winter but to be honest it aint too bad, at least its sunny most of the time, beats the dark rainy days back home! dowside is, the Z is only a summer car now but that gives me the whole winter to undertake some serious mods! At least the summer is a proper summer, even at night its around 28 at the mo!

I'm out in Winnipeg at the moment, off to Vancouver Island though hopefully! Your right about Tim hortons, Guess i'll have to reverse through the drive through once me Z is out here!

Well, I just moved out to Canada this week and absolutly loving it! Weather is great, been 33 degrees every day this week. Missing the Z but she will be coming out in Aug. Got myself a 5.7V8 GMC Yukon at the mo, and to be honest it can haul in a strait line! Only manages about 11MPG but who cares when 75L of petrol cost 20 quid. There is a z club out here I belive but I bet it aint nowhere as good as 300zx.co.uk! Parts are half the price over here so some serious modding is on the menu! If anyone wants any parts shipped as a private gift I'll see what I can do! Andy

I've just taken a HKS valve controller out of a skline and fitted it to my mates Z. Trouble is I have no instructions so unsure of how to pipe the solonoid up. It was expensive in its day. £900 about 4 years ago. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated. searched the net for pictures and it looks like this one. Andy

Had mine 5 years now, and will probably have her for another 5 at least! was the car I always wanted, nothing else tickles my fancy. She has always been my primary vehicle and been very reliable, not bad for an old car. Soon to become a weekend toy, got big plans for her then! watch this space.

your right there! just got to source a UK speedo first, mine only goes up to 120MPH, plus it's really lazy. A nightmare slowing down for speed cameras :dance:

So what do you think? Not seen this on a Z before but got the idea after seeing door mounted gauges on an XJ220. I actualy quite like it, its easy to see at a quick glance, and to be honest, not much air ever came out the vent anyway. I also have three smaller gauges to mount in the spare din slot. Once i've fitted some white facia's to the other clocks it should look quite nice. I have nothing against pillar pods as they are easy to see strait in your line of sight, but I personaly think they look a bit bulky.

I replaced the heater matrix about 2 years ago and for those of you who have done it you will know its a bitch, did it the long way aswell, took a good 10 hours! Just noticed my carpet was getting damp and on closer inspection, definitly the matrix, this was a brand new part from nissan FFS! Well i've linked the hoses for now, certainly dont have time to fix that at the moment. Not sure if its coincidental but I fitted a new copper uprated radiator recently, Could the aluminium heater matrix suddenly become a sacrificial anode? anyone else experienced this? Had the car years now and the first matrix lasted ages. All I seem to do nowadays is fix the Z! :headvswal
