I Need an Engine Please!!!
Try Ryan @ Zedtech in the traders forum. He's doing replacement engines (rebuilt) with warranty. Obviously its not a cheap option, but is a good deal for what you are getting! I can also vouch for his work :)

Dark zed- Wantage
Think i know the car you saw, dont think the guy is on here though. If its the one i'm thinking of, it is the one that was parked next to you at the meeting in Abingdon you came to.

gearbox slipping
Mine was like that mate, just not quite as bad! Drain, flush & renew oil, use dexron 111 oil. Have a new oil pan gasket ready too. Mine is fine now, just really gacked up...& the oil was still red!

Headlight bulbs
Have a look on http://www.300zx.org.uk theres pretty much everything you need to know about a zed on there, including a link to removing & cleaning the headlights.....somewhere! HTH.... ;)

Headlight bulbs
I presume yours is an import? do a search on headlight upgrades, there is one which involves fitting an extra wire to enable you to use uk spec bulbs of a higher wattage. I did this and the lights were noticably brighter, but the car wouldn't tick over properly at all, seemed to zap all the power :confused: Put the normal jap spec bulbs back in, & all is fine, just can't see shit! failing that, there was a group buy in the traders forum a while back for hid lights. You have to be a subscribed member to take part in group buys though ;) Try http://www.elta.co.uk for j-spec bulbs, you'll have problems trying to source them through halfords etc!

Grumpy when cold.
I always let mine idle for about ten minutes before driving, even then it still feels sluggish for a few miles. Always wait for the water temp/oil pressure to get to the correct levels before any sort of 'boost'.

Supra vs 300zx
I owned a mk3 supra turbo, auto. Own a zed tt, auto. There is no comparison between the two, the zed will whoop it easily. you only have to park the two side by side in a car park, the zed will already have won! ;)

Insurance for 2 cars
I've just added a 2nd car to my policy with houghtons, the z is now in classic status (5k per annum). Added a 1.6 astra, n-reg as a daily driver. Cost £600 for the pair f/c. ;)

The Police what is your view on them?
What was it that the skinheads used to have tattooed across their knuckles?.....A.C.A.B..... :rofl: Seriously though, the police force just seems to be a money making organisation now, just interested in hitting targets for the month etc... Whether its right or wrong doesn't seem to come into it anymore. The majority of coppers i have met seem to be complete tossers, always have a chip on their shoulder and a point to prove. There are however some good guys, one of them posts on here. He'll probably make himself known somewhere in this thread :)

Forum Names
Not too sure really, is a nickname of mine. My mate's started calling me it when i was racing motocross, something to do with my uncanny ability of 'getting off' the bike when i wasn't s'posed to! I've dnf'd more races than i've had hot dinners! Although what this has to do with sideshowbob..... i don't know!
