A belated happy birthday mate........ :happybday:

Rear light opinions - big ass car
Top ones for me Lee - the after-burner effect..... .....I am not a fan of the mixed colours of the Fiat Coupe set-up; but concur that it could work, if the lenses were all tinted the same (or swapped for clear versions). Someone must have made after-market clear lenses for the Fiat....? Richard:cool:

Any of you guys, Hit bad with the snow?
Not as bad as a few Sundays ago - just 2-3 inches of snow here..... ......at the moment; it's still snowing though!! But it's a fine time for the boiler to break.....:sad: Luckily the gas-fire heats the house reasonably well - and the back-up emersion in the tank is keeping us in hot water. British Gas can't get someone out until next week either, so also fortunate that we're heading away for a few days.

Staggered diameter wheel setups
Yup - that's my thought too....:cool: Just drop the rear profile by another 5% over what you'd do for having the same diameter rims.... So assuming front is currently 235/40/18, where you might have 265/35/18 on the rear, go for 265/30/19. Job done....:wink: As for insurance, it should be no more of an issue than any other wheel upgrade.

What did you do to your zed today?
Looking good Mr Wilson.....:thumbup:

What did you do to your zed today?

Nice.....:cool: Merry Christmas Jeff - and love to Lynda...:santa:

Anyone near York to help with Oil change in the auto box
Yup - whilst I have never attempted it, I'd certainly agree with Jeff, Tony!! And auto-box fluid (especially "used") is just horrible stuff. When I fixed my leaking PAS-oil cooler, the mess was bad enough...!!! I can see the upside of being on my back, covered in oil and playing with holes as much as any man might - but not where a 300zx auto-box is involved.....:lol:
-
A very Merry Christmas to you all.....!!!
LOL - nice one Ali.... .....And glad it arrived safely mate....:thumbup::santa:

300ZX roadster
Yup - your memory serves you well Sudesh; you're dead right! The only TT convertibles were retro-fits....:cool: And if anyone is looking for a nice 'Vert, you could do a lot worse than this one.... https://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?185398-For-Sale-Red-convertible&p=1965359#post1965359

Where have I gone now?
.....Also, on the subject of breweries, there is also a distillery (which I believe is owned by one of the breweries). Their Mermaid Gin is one of the nicest gins I have tried in a long time!!

Where have I gone now?
Yup - he's lived there for years....!! We usually meet up with Graham and Julie at The Boat House pub in Seaview - good location and nice food. Apart from that lobster that took its revenge on me a couple of years ago...:lol: And yes, I do usually come over in the Zed, so it would certainly be a good excuse for a mini-Zed meet....:cool:
- Defeated by a heater matrix... send help!

Gorgeous sunset ..
Lovely pics Jeff - and as you say, that would have made a superb car photo back-drop......:thumbup: Thanks for sharing - and Feliz Natal, sir....:cool:

Where have I gone now?
Nice one Mike - so we now have another Islander in the club; as Graham (Groover) lives in Ryde....:cool: I do like the Island and try to visit every year. I shall drop you a line next time we're over, so we can meet in one of those pubs...:wink: Enjoy.... Richard:thumbup:

Where have I gone now?

Loud engine fan
Hi Mate, I think I still have a TT one in my garage.... It was BNIB and sitting on Jeff's shelf at Zedworld for a while, until he fitted it to my Zed in 2012..... I covered about 15k miles with it, and then bought another brand new one from Z1 in the summer of 2016, when I also fitted a new radiator etc., due to coolant loss and overheating issues. I can't be sure the coupling was not at fault, since it was previously unused. But you're welcome to have it FOC, to see it if cures your problem. I'll dig it out today and post it next week if you want to try it. Richard

thinking of getting back into a zed...
Hi and welcome back mate....! I certainly remember your red Zed - although I don't remember it getting written off...:sad: That was a sad loss indeed. Good luck in your search for another though! Richard:cool:
