99 spec bumper number plates
The smaller 3/4 one overhangs about 1/2" each side of the mount on the bumper a std long plate overhangs way more and doesn't look right imo

What did you do to your zed today?
There will be plenty of how guides should be one on here I'm sure a little digging or some kind soul will post it for you. Just take your time and follow the steps carefully and triple check everything. If you know someone with mechanical knowledge ask them for help. It's not a difficult job to do if you take your time a couple of evenings or a weekend should see it done easily. You could even put a call for help out to members near you we are usually happy to help one another believe it or not.

It failed on 1st start after being stood. It's really not worth the risk if it fails and trashes your engine you won't be a happy bunny. If the tensioner and idlers are good you can get away with just the belt and at less than £50 for an oem belt is it really worth the risk. Belive me the answer is no.

What did you do to your zed today?
That's guidance for a car driven regularly. If it's been laid up then the belts deteriorate with age as well. I had my timing belt on my 407 estate strip teeth 20k before its stated interval because it was laid up for 8 months.

Track days
Si I think you would be fine at Silverstone you drive at your pace and as long as you follow overtaking etiquette there's no reason why you shouldn't have an incident free experience . Ceejay was providing "hot laps" for passengers so was maybe under pressure to drive a little closer to the limit than he may have done had he have been on his own. Personally if I do go on track at Silverstone I will be blasting down the straights but braking nice and early for a sensible corner speed I'm not out to prove how fast my car is I'm just doing it to enjoy the experience of driving round an historic circuit. As you said it's all about enjoying the experience.

Track days
Hi Graham Well it is my intention to do more track based events this year however I will have to see what I fancy. Theres only intermediate or advanced sessions left at japfest not that an intermediate session would bother me but the drivers briefing is at 8.30am FFS and you know how bad tempered I can be in a morning. Im also not convinced that this year I will be running at Ten of the Best, I will be going but having run both my zeds at the event and not having modified either of them since theres only really the handling course I haven't tried. I am very likely however to join Pete at York dragway for a RWYB session and maybe get to an event at the POD this year. I will be at Japfest but I have been invited by Shadow Sports to show my car on their stand, they are showing a selection of iconic jap sports cars and have asked me if I will represent the 300zx so how could I turn it down ??. They have also asked me to be on their stand for Jap Day at castle combe so I will be going there too. I would love to run at Oulton Park too so give me a shout if you are going to and event and ill try to get there.

Under the knife
For those that know me and have been to any shows with me this year will know that I've been struggling with my knee for quite some time now and recently I've been really struggling to even walk at times. Well it was supposed to be today but it's been put back to tomorrow but I'm finally having an arthroscopy to clear out some damaged cartilage, removal of the knee joint lining and trim some bone off the back of my knee cap. To say I can't wait is an understatement so 12 am tomorrow it's game on. Hopefully I'll see a big improvement in my mobility and way less pain so fingers crossed.
