I thought that was the Dambusters film?

When I was a kid, my grandmother lived in this rather nice house close to the Mendip Hills in Somerset. Around the corner from her was this big farm house where an old farmer lived. He was pretty old and has long since died. He had a seemingly equally as old black Labrador which he called the 'N' word. No word of a lie. I guess I was about 4 or 5, so some 30 years ago now and to recall him bellowing down the lane at his dog saying 'Come 'ere N****r' was a sight...and sound! But it was a time when things weren't PC and this dog was some 15 year old haggard thing, so he named the dog nearly 50 years ago when it was almost 'acceptable' to use the term in daily conversation without the batter of an eyelid.

Well, Twiglet is doing fine. The issue was a mouth infection. She had pain killers and anti-biotics and is fine and dandy now - slightly bigger, but she hasn't grown all that much!

This! The auction hasn't ended, so it's all game. The auction can be pulled, no one loses out really if done in a timely manner.

Sounds like the latch needs adjusting.

PORN KILLED YOUR LAPTOP! It's killed 4 of mine!!!!!!!!!! :wack:

New Alpine component speakers and a power pack. I've spoken at length with forum members and also Car Audio Direct and with what I am wanting to achieve, it'll be the best route. Hopefully I'll get more punchy sounds. My entire system will be Alpine then. :)

...ordered new In Car Entertainment!! :)

Trev....looks like a sign from the Z Gods!! Remove them and never refit! ;)

Absolutely! It's not about being a purist, but identifying products that compliment the car, these do. The wings however do not. Overall though, this is a nice car, seen plenty of other photos of it.

NP. My rear end isn't too far away from that, but I am miles off forward of the mid section. Sooo clean!

Rust coated? LOL My refurb cost me about £650 I think. It's quite labour intensive. I stripped the wheels down before presenting them to the guy doing the work. The price crept up a little as the design of the wheels was so awkward as they had recessed and partially hidden bolts.

Indeed, my grammar sucks - I have corrected it! :p

Did some quick digging around - quite a few photos of it if you scroll down. It's a midnight purple NA 2+2. http://www.z32-zone.com/event/Nostalgic_2days_2014/zone_booth.htm

NA too.

It is real and the photo is of a customer's car of z32-zone (fairlady pro-shop) in Japan.

There's a HUGE difference between Veilside bodykits and everything else they do. Their wheels and exhausts are world renowned for quality and style, their bodykits aren't really. They're well made, but strongly divide opinion. I'd not think twice about having either Veilside wheels or an exhaust on my car. - - - Updated - - - Totally agree! Obnoxiously loud exhausts are just hateful.

Agree with Joel. There's loads that can be done with the offsets. Rear especially look like they could do with some added track. Keep the centres silver IMO.

Not especially. Mine's quite a refined burble. I still have my cats and I have a high quality exhaust. It can set alarms off if I do use the loud pedal. But I don't drive fast through my neighbourhood. A: you can't and B: It's irresponsible. People tell me it's audible, but not harsh or boomy. That's Veilside systems for you - perfect! :)

Yup, they did look pretty peachy. They were a lovely wheel, but were a mission to keep clean and polished, even though I did keep it garaged and only drove it in the summer in dry weather! LOL They just didn't quite have the look I wanted, but I guess I had them on there for a good 4 or 5 years.

When you get the centres done, get them powder coated. It's more durable on wheels than regular paint is. I used a guy a Nottingham to refurb an old set of Advan Siena wheels I used to have. See bottom of page 2 and the 3rd for a few photos. Alas, most have long since vanished into the ether, but there are a few still there. http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?66274

They've already disowned you because of your side exit exhaust, so it makes no odds! :lol: :wack: ;)

:p

Eeeeooow! Stomach churning! I've never been into the 'Max Power' type scene of enormous bodykits and unsightly colours; glad you're not now either! :lol:
