Paint codes and Halfords (!)
I had some paint mixed up by Halfords for a 200SX & it was totally the wrong colour. Instead of pearlescent blue, it looked purple! I'd give it a miss personally.

wood car ramps
True, but if you put a couple of bricks width ways before the ramp then you can get the car up the steel ramps without causing damage. I know cos I did it last week ;) Saying all that, you still wouldn't get your car up by 10" like you can with the super dooper wooden ones! :D

Illuminated '300ZX' center panel is knackered!
Oh I see, so in that case it's probably the EL inverter (the thing I called a transformer) that is knackered. Oh bugger! Don't suppose you know how many volts A.C. it's supposed to give out?

Illuminated '300ZX' center panel is knackered!
I don't suppose anyone has a clue what goes wrong with these things? At first I though it would have just had a bulb/bulbs in there but it appears to have what must be a flourescent tube instead as there's a transformer which must drive it :confused: Anyone got any ideas? I tried to get to the tube but I was afraid of breaking the perspex front to the panel. Shaun

OVER 60 POINTS: Others see you as someone they should "handle withcare." You're seen as vain, self-centered, and who is extremely dominant. Others may admire you, wishing they could be more like you, but don't always trust you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you. 51 TO 60 POINTS: Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive personality; a natural leader, who's quick to make decisions, though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the excitement you radiate. 41 TO 50 POINTS: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out. 31 TO 40 POINTS: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful & practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over if that trust is ever broken. 21 TO 30 POINTS: Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder.. It would really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment, expecting you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then, usually decide against it. They think this reaction is caused partly by your careful nature. UNDER 21 POINTS: People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive, someone who needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions &who doesn't want to get involved with anyone or anything! They see you as a worrier who always sees problems that don't exist. Some people think you're boring. Only those who know you well know that you aren't.

Rollcall: Auto/Manual?
Must admit, after having both I prefer the Manual box but sometimes the synchromesh lets you down! All in all though, the manual 300Z TT definately feels quicker, I noticed the difference straight away after converting from Auto to Manual ;) .

Silver paint code
It's a base colour apparently, nothing too hard to get hold of, well at least that's what they said in Halfords but I wouldn't trust that implicitly.

Can't upload JPEG's
Thanks mate, I sussed out that the image was too large in the end as I tried uploading a smaller file and sure enough, it worked no problem. Cheers for the info though, I now know how to add attachments, never knew how to do that before. :)

Do we need men?
Right, I'm off to do the world a favour & jump off the nearest bridge ;)

Yeah baby, 539RWHP S13.
Bloody hell, is that turbo spinning down with the engine off? :eek:

Overtaking gripe...
What really p!sses me off is when people flash at you for overtaking them even when the road is perfectly straight and clear ahead. They obviously can't stand the humiliation of being out done :rolleyes: On a similar theme, has anyone noticed how it's more often than not women as opposed to men who floor it when you start to overtake? Probably the feminists;)

If you could change the colour of your Z what colour would you do?
Personally, I wouldn't want to have a car on the road with a 3K paint job, nooooo way cos some fokker is bound to damage it. Some jealous young sheite would be only to willing to key it for you :mad:. Failing that, some woman would twat it with her door whilst getting out of her car in a supermarket car park :rolleyes:. Fook that!:D

I think I've OD'd
Prickly heat, yeah I've got that at the moment.:mad: The thing is though I've never had it in my whole life and now almost my whole body is covered in it apart from my head, hands & feet. Someone suggested that because I had a bug last Friday my imune system is probably still working overtime.

You got to look at this belt

Slick50
Who knows whether it really works or not, we're never likely to know for sure unless of course you'd actually been involved in the research on this product yourself. Some people will want us to believe that it's crap, i.e. oil companies (so that we keep changing our oil on a regular basis!), car companies (so that we'll keep changing our cars on a regular basis). The reasons for saying that slick 50 damages your engine could well be political and therefore not be genuine.

Terrible, dreadful pics
Personally I don't think that putting those pictures on the net is very nice. I guess that they may remind some people of the fact that their not imortal though. WHich reminds me: I pulled out to overtake a Mondeo V6 that was doing a constant 48mph, I'd got about 1/4 way past when the ****er decided to boot it. I was passing it but nowhere near as quick as I would if he hadn't accelerated but he'd obviously floored it. This wouldn't have been so bad if the road had been miles long but there was a corner coming up & if a car had come around that corner then that would have been it as I had to do nearly a ton to get past the prick! Luckily for me though there wasn't anything coming the other way. I was so pissed by this that I stopped the car in the middle of the lane, got out of the car & called him a stupid twat for trying to kill me. I really could have hit him for that!:mad:
