I made a show plate for the front of mine Test fit

Peasant spotter eh Hollings... ;) The videos have gone well and truly viral. It's all over the world lol

Haha I was there only a week ago! :shock: I need to stop getting close with plane related stuff. These things happen in threes aswell so I think I will be staying in the house!!

A Eurofighter Typhoon did the same last year but was on the day before the show so wasn't many people around! I'm not sure if the pilots would get moaned at or not as they are just doing their job and if people choose to stand there it's their choice?

It is the annual Waddington International Air Show near Lincoln this weekend and the Turkish 'Solo Turk' F16 came in well low when it come into land... as seen in the videos! ps I'm the one in the grey t-shirt in the first vid. Yikes lol [video=youtube_share;WGNoupIF5SU] and heres my view, bit of a poor video but understandable lol [video=youtube_share;vy5ozVAIKfI]

Sorry Gaz didn't even check dates but mine was a pisstake lol :)

I can have a couple of days off next week so let me know when suits :) Monday? Tuesday?

Have you tried de scrapyard?

Must have been getting desperate then lol. Ended up buying a black NA off the forum from some guy in Great Yarmouth instead. Wasn't long after I bought a TT though as the NA just isn't the same lol :whistling: And thanks for the offer Steve I'll bear it in mind for future :thumbup:

That will cure it lol... You off to the air show? Or do you guys get fed up of planes lol? When you thinking? Would be a great help mate :)

Very nice Nick but please fit the new front plate a bit lower :)

I didn't lol... It looked a bit different to that when I saw it for sale, wasn't quite as 'wahhhh maaate' as it looks in that pic

Thanks for the input mate... Hopefully I'll find it blocked, is it a new gasket needed or just sealant? And can you reuse the oil if it's ok or is that just tight lol :whistling:

Yeah THANKS SI for posting up that bag of sh!t non turbo rot box.... I drove all the way from Lincoln to Southampton to buy that car, I asked the owner several times over the phone if it had any rust and he said no, got there and there was a HOLE in the rear arch and the sills were non-existent!! 450 mile round trip wasted! And I thought the wheels were more like 7.5"?! Inovit pile'o'shit

No mate you can buy the turbine wheels so all you need is a Z to fit them to :) I've got an idea in my head of what I want my Z to look like, and I'm sticking to it... :) although no wide arches this time just awesomeness and fitment

Haha thanks for the technical replies guys, will try that at the weekend Jeff :yes: . @Steamy I drove the car back from London and have used it since so strange that it's happening now. I do have another autobox, but if it's coming out I'll just move the manual conversion forwards. We aren't far away from the cov meet and I'm still waiting for rear wheels to arrive, then get them fitted along with coilovers, MOT, tax, etc... :( And NO it's not for sale lol :slap:

stfu + gtfo

I'm about to recomission my Z ready for this years use lol, when I drove it back after being painted the further I drove the more it felt like clutch slip. It was about a 12 mile journey and by the time I got to my estate the revs were shooting up and the car really wasn't moving very much! Anyway roll forwards a couple of months and I finally got round to checking the oil level today the oil is clear with no burning smell, if anything it looks over-full as it's on all the dipstick even the hot part when the oil is cold. I do have a manual conversion to go in the car but struggling for time before some meets and shows this month so was hoping for an easy fix to buy me some time, any ideas guys please?

Yeah go for bronze ash will look good against the colour of your Z

Any fitted pictures mark or not yet..?

Gave it a wash for the first time in about 2 months.

Absolutely can't wait for it, I work about 10 miles away from where the BBMF is stationed so hoping to see them both quite a bit! :)

I started mine for the first time in about 3 weeks, even if it was just to shuffle it off the garden and onto the driveway so I could mow... :whistle: However the rest of the month and into July will see me spending many hours on the zed getting it modified and ready for the shows, and hopefully it's gonna look a bit awesome.. :)

Happy birthday Dave! Hope you've had a good day mate! :)

Yes mate they are from a nova so should go straight on with no arch work, just need to remove the calipers to get them to fit :)
