How many motors and bikes have you got not? Are you still out in Helmand?

I was tempted with this myself Trev, but seems a bit suss... Im on leave next week I might go and have a look...

Think Ill bid on this one... just to be a tart and outbid Trev...

I wouldnt drop a flame near your shoes, thats all I can say.. :1eye:

Could Turbonoz sort something for you? Great Guy full of advice....

My Wife says the same of me. nothing to do with profession LOL..

Theres an event up north to make money for the North East air ambulance. basically they invite loads of car clubs. other people pay a couple of quid and all the money goes to charity.. as a club theres a lot we can do and its also free promotion for our cars.. im sure other clubs would join us..? to use our passions for good causes.. Nothing better? Ill shut up if theres no interest.. if people are interested Ill look for ideas.. maybe do something for 25th Anniversary event.. use Lexxs idea and raise money at such a a big event? by the way im in sales so an optimist.. youre an accountant so a pessimist..:biggrin: sales and commercial never clash.. lol...

That really is cool..

Its an engines Banjo string.. lmao...

Happy Birthday Chris, hadnt realised it was birthday earlier.. :-) hope youre having a great day...

I was hoping Richard that people might use this as an excuse to drive the car, we put the fuel in anyway?? Point taken, but I think it would still be good to do some charity work as a club.. we raised money last year with Kaza Steve.. Be good to keep the trend going? Very interested in other ideas....

Was thinking about this during my meeting at work.. lol and does need tempering a bit.. we have plenty of time to organise say the start of season next year, do it region by region over a period of time, so say every saturday or second saturday. North East would drive to yorkshire, meet up with that crowd, then they would move the batten on a couple of weeks later.. Even Billy no mates in NI would get a turn.. lol... we could det up a chart which would show the earnings as we go along and track throughout the summer. it could culminate in the final meet being at the Nissan 25th anniversary meet where im sure we will all be together?

Hi Guys, hope you dont mind me posting this. My Daughter is doing a sponsored walk for the help the heroes charity. It got me thinking why cant we do a sponsored drive? Havent thought about the logistics as just came to me hence typing it down. Maybe we could do a regional tag event, passing the batten between regions and getting sponsorship for the miles clocked up. so start in Jockland, travel down east England, through wales and back up the west coast. it would be a driving event and a mini meet for the two joining regions? would need the local reo's to talk. Possibly a daft idea, but encompasses the best of both worlds, driving our cars and a small meet? Also raises money for a superb charity and we have lots of squaddies on here who deserve our support? Thoughts??

Just seen this thread, should be awesome.. lets not make it in the summer holidays though as many people might be away.. Richards excuse every year lol... I dont want to miss this one..:clap: if no one from the NE has said they will join the team I would more than happily get involved..

lets keep dreaming.. :-) one day!!

I wont be bidding Trev.. the missus has spoken.. but it looks great for that money...

I saw it yesterday and sure it was only about 7K, which I thought was cheap? gone now so the kids can stop hiding their moneyboxes.. lol

This looks very nice.. taken in front of the Penshaw Monument.. Local car for Stella perhaps? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1994-NISSAN-300ZX-CONVERTIBLE-PEARL-WHITE-VERY-RARE-FUTURE-CLASSIC-/171151431935?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item27d96b98ff

Didnt like the colour anyway... :1eye: wasnt the 260z the Nissan the cops supposedly couldnt catch? loved them as a kid.... I want something else, do I go skyline, evo or something retro? cant afford the escorts...

Saw this on zclub.. These cars are so retro, absolutely cool.. if I could afford this Id have it tomorrow? Like the escorts these are going to go mad value wise... http://zclub.net/forum/classifieds-discussion/23390-260z-sale-carandclassic-co-uk.html

Darn it, one of the hardpipes has snapped at the weld where the BOV's go.. typical.. lol.. ill have to get them welded, plastocoted black rather than chrome.. what I can say is they were brand new Z1 hardpipes with T clamps, not cheap, but the build quality is.. anyone looking to do this mod, buy the uk pipes and get them polished, chromed or whatever and buy the silicon fittings seperate. will be cheaper and better quality..

Cheers Buddy, I keep admiring the new colour, but I did really love the sticker on the last job...

Forged Engine from bearings upwards, injectors, tubs, air filter, fmic, ams manifolds, testpipes, downpipes etc.. brake upgrage and a few other checks. oh, fmic fitted as well.. cant remember the full list... hoping to make 450 as Im too old and dont have the skills to handle that let alone anymore... lol..
