Welcome to the club

What you clicking on when you get that error?

Give the committee and email on committee@300zx.co.uk. One of us will get back to you on it. Lee

By national i actually meant to say international and use a new domain name but do it in a way that both work or the old redirects to the new. however 300zx.com belongs to z1motorsports and they wont be giving it up any time soon. Problem with moving domains is that so many URL's encoded into posts use 300zx.co.uk and it would be a fairly large task to go through the database to make that sort of change. I do have a domain in mind that could be used easily but it would be setup as a mirror site rather than replacement.

There is about 8 - 10 of us in total who run and assist the club and this site. The main crew, at least those who have provided details and a picture are listed here : https://www.300zx.co.uk/team/ The Sub-Committee as we call it now is a replacement for all the REO's and Moderators groups we used to have many years ago. My role in hear is all the IT aspects but i'm guided by the others on what needs done. Unfortunately things get side tracked and some of us are not online or active as much so we fall behind on things to get done. But we appreciate posts like this as we all need to get active and get things done. That been said the alot of the format of this club has now adjusted and old sections cleaned up and merged as they are no longer needed. Any historical technical information and FAQ's have been moved to the Premium sections as we believe they are best suited to that section. The club still needs to make some income to keep this place going so selling has also been restricted again to Premium Users. The club is already national as it is but i'm guessing we just need to adjust the sections to cater for them too. I do own some national style domains and i may try get these going as a mirror site so that the current and new domains work from the same databases.

Stops the annoying nag to switch to Tapatalk, that's about it.

No point, but people can be dicks. DoS attacks designed to flood a server with connections to a point it simple can't cope and crashes. The attack come from multiple places at once so hard to combat by trying to block it. But the ones against our server are tiny so no harm to us really.

And another BOT attack this morning. Like a fart in the wind, barely registered it and forgotten about just as quickly.?

Exactly, I get this too and hence the reason to see what peoples views are. I just want to ditch it as its no longer needed.

I have an android phone and use chrome, never had an issue and always found it very simple to get onto the site. It would likely take me longer to add an icon now that i'm used to the way i do things on my phone.

It's 1894!

Yeh, Tapatalk is a relic to the old forums and it is still used by some. Personally I never liked it even in the old days of the club. That aside, welcome and hopefully we can see your zed shortly.

So who's all still using Tapatalk. There always seems to be issues with this app and as the club works fine without it I'd love just to hit the kill button.

Welcome, For a start try using the site without tapa talk. I find it causes more issues than its worth. Access the site as a normal site as its perfectly mobile friendly.

Looks like we just has a Denial of Service attack on our server. Funny as we have a fairly powerful server for what we use it for courtesy of yours truly and the whole attack summed up a total of 5% CPU when i checked. Only thing it has done is up our most users online to 1659 which is displayed at the bottom of the site pages.

Your right, that was @pbryantknight, Looked him up and its a different reg plate so must be a few of these in the UK now.

Hi all, I'd like to break down some recent changes we have made in regards to layout of the club site and the general experience we all get from it. First off you may have noticed a massive reduction in the forums sections and categories available. Unfortunately many of these sections are no longer active and haven't been for some time so we thought best to simplify what we used most and merge the various sections together, nothing has been archived and you will find all content still available in the general discussions sections. One of the things as a club that we need to protect is the wealth of information collated over the years into the Technical Area / FAQ's sections. As such this information will only be available to Premium Members as part of an annual Membership Subscription. Along with the Technical Area we have decided again that selling on the club of any sort is now only permissible with a full Premium Membership. If you are wishing to sell on our club, whether it be a part out or selling your full car then you must have a Premium Subscription. Membership information and costs are available here : https://www.300zx.co.uk/membership/ In regards to issues reported with our search engine; these have been resolved. To explain why we had an issue i would need to go into depths of coding and how the database works, the short of it is there was a default restriction of 4 letters to a search word so the likes of three letter words would not show, ie, oil, tps, tpm, rad and so on. If you do have an issue with search functions or any other issues please open a new thread in the forum issue tracker here : https://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/forum/118-forum-issue-tracker/ Lots of changes for the better. Any questions please let us know.

Cant give the exact location but its in between my home town of Troon and Glasgow.

Visiting a new client yesterday and when i arrived i got invited into the warehouse for a quick chat. On entry to the warehouse i saw about 15 classic motors ranging from an old morgan to what looked like a 90's style F1. But as i turned around my jaw suddenly dropped and my childhood wet dream was made a reality. Behold a fully working replica of the Knight Industries Two Thousand otherwise know to all as K.I.T.T. I got a full tour and also a quick sit down inside to experience this 1 to 1. Wow, so many buttons and everything had a purpose and was fully working.

Merry Christmas Everyone.

When shit like this breaks - no-one seems to report it. When the site software updates the search defaults back to 4 character searches. I've now put it back to 3 but it will take an hour to rebuild the index.

Average of -10 in Troon at the moment but no sign of snow, just a shit load of frost.

Sorry Garry, missed this one, belated happy birthday!

Mexican Cartel ?
