Black-zed

cheers guys will take a look, it will get a good long drive once i've taxed it end of month lol, well to add a little more confusion to this as it's stood at the mo i'm keeping her with battery disconnected so i thought i would just go out and check poer the the left pod, reconnected the battery and it's all working including the heater blower i will check the targa drain though just incase

just started the zed first time in a couple of months all seemed fine till i decided to test the electrics...........................tried the heater display etc all seemed fine but the fan wasn't working litterally 2 mins later the whole heater system was dead, no display buttons not lighting up etc i then noticed the wipers not working fron & rear only thing that actually works in my left pod is the hazzards, any ideas? faulty pod maybe? checked main fuses etc not checked power to the pod yet as it's raining at the mo

well i goota say i prefered the old look of the forums for me this new look is too bright and in your face

i've asked for 3rd party quotes before now and they have been £30 less than paying for fully comp

well i don't know i asked the guy if they covered my car first of all and he asked what it was so i told him nissan 300zx he checked came back to me and said yes we cover that but someone just shouted to me we don't cover 300zx fairladys so unless this is a new thing they have recently started doing maybe

thats what i though dave had all the same cover as the more expensive quotes just higher vol excess

yes as single quotes was £146 cheaper but they said z was wrong car listed (even though guy read out it's quoted as a import) at £360 was going to buy it then he realised higher quote on multi car then said it was £543 not £360 hence why i went to lloyds all cover was same legal cover etc just £100 higher excess

hi dave if only i looked before have done insurance with lloyds but am sure i can cancel that if need be am back at work tomorrow but will try and call at some point in next couple of days, did try heritage insurance and when i said what car it is he said we dont cover the fairlady lol, as i siad to admiral lady £543 for what i needed to do a side window claim but because the car was a import and over 3 years they would not pay for a new glass, same as if i have a accident they will only repair the vehicle if they can source original parts.

wel just had my renewal through for the z and volvo (both on multicar) at at £844.48 (increase of £146 on last years price) so i decided to goto compare the market so sure enough both cars as single policy's again with admiral for £704 bargain i thought rang them up spoke to the girl in the multicar dept, she agreed volvo £329 actually slightly better price, looked at the z looked at it said i've got the wrong vehicle code on this i need to change it them bam £543 for the z when original quote to renew was £485, so loaded another £60 on to original price.So back to compare the market i go called the number to buy the insurance off them guy on the phone looked said yes vehicle down as import need standard mot etc said yes price of £360 was correct so i said i wanted to buy, system then told him i was multicar policy holder suddenly they wanted £543 again claiming it was their best price, next call was lloyds (cheapest quote) they couldn't access quote so said they would do a new one over phone, £614 from them but £337 on compare the market quote, womans exact words if it's quoting you that go back online and buy it, so in the end thats what i did, so bit long winded this but had fully comp 6000 miles protected no claims (8yrs) jap import anyone else noticed a huge price increase on their insurance?

i fitted standard size grooved discs these i found helped breaking also

only in america lol

i would be if i wasn't so tied up with work commitments

i'm busy december with gigs apart from sun nights

spotted last night (wednesday ) at 7pm ish on the prom n300 ttt i think looked like turbophycosis's car but could be wrong

only thing missing on all these rads is the bottom rad hose support

sunny and warm in the forest of dean

i think it's concept z do a rad mounting adaptor to fit a tt rad to na

i dont need to make an excuse as i wasn't coming anyway lol

just randomly browsing ebay i found this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300ZX-SWB-TWIN-TURBO-MANUAL-ONLY-2-OWNERS-/170703678614?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item27bebb6c96 a series 2 manual t/t slicktop shortie

no the white is prob going to become donor parts for the black one, but in all the black one is treating me better runs as it should and had turbos done a few thousand miles before i bought it so one thing i dont need to worry about for a while..............................and of course because it's black it's faster

there is a place just down the road from me not got the number to hand but do a search for starter and alternator centre in cinderford

shame i can't make it would of been good to catch up paul (i used to be white-zed by the way)

i'm out on this one 9 days to late for me car goes off the road end of sept

sounds like a good idea, mind also getting membership packs out would be a good idea i'm into my 2nd year since resubscribing and still not yet received one.
