I was expecting this thread to contain 'BOVs'! hahahaha Shame huh! Dumb error for sure that would have been! :p

Any one interested in car covers ?
;) $80 is about £55. Shipping, expect to pay around £30 - £40 per cover as they're pretty heavy. Add customs and duty to that, you're looking around the £100 mark for a landed price.

Red Lyon Christmas meet
That's poop. Been years since I went to a club Christmas meal. The last one being the one in Somerset and I think we had about 15 folk along! There are various photos of that evening in circulation with large portions of cream in my mouth!

TT v NA
Yeah I have. My Z32 is a TT Manual, I drive an NA over in the US. It's a decent cruiser, but after being used to the TT power delivery and the more refined and exotic engine note, I wouldn't really desire to own one. I think the Twin Turbo engine is a fantastic unit. Not the easiest engine to work on, but if you maintain it, you'll never really have any problems. When I set out to buy a Z32 originally, the only choice was a Twin Turbo manual and that is what bought.

what engine would you choose and why?
That car fills me with horror. A four banger and Franklin's car looks like it belongs in a junk yard.

New F1 rule for 2014 season.....
F1 has gotten rather tedious over the past few years. Remember the Schumacher years? Monumental nauseum. I guess Vettel does at least have a personality, albeit an annoying one. I love F1, but its recent predictability has left me bereft somewhat. There is still some good fighting midway down the pack usually, but I wanna see scrapping for the championship again. Really needs spicing up somehow.

3000 overtakes the 300zx at 5mins :) haha
Richard Smith will remember the day we took my car out for a test drive all those years ago and obliterated a 3000GT. Most fun.

This!

zed respray
Nice colour! Look forward to seeing it painted!
-
300ZX Pricing - look at Zs - maybe? Hopefully?
Nice! Your 'sleepy eye' pop ups look like 'broken lights'. :p Glad you didn't do that to the Supra! ;)

Rear led update
I'm not either. :confused::wack:

300ZX Pricing - look at Zs - maybe? Hopefully?
I love the MK3 Supra. Actually prefer it to the MK4. IIRC, our very own Richard Smith had one! Anyone remember the Mitsubishi Starion? Again, about 10-12 years ago, you could get one of these for under £1k.....they're scarce now and they go for for between £2.5k and £5k. These are seriously cool cars!

What rear spoiler is this?
I prefer them. I really like the S1/S2 OEM spoiler though, but I think the Central20 is a great addition without detracting from the original.

Looking at a Metro!!!
You could always have a go at building a replica. lol :)
-
What rear spoiler is this?
Looks like it's just paint damage. They can be repaired and I expect it's a lot cheaper than buying new! haha Sometimes they come about on breakers. You could also keep an eye on the Japanese Yahoo auctions.
-
What rear spoiler is this?
....yeah, the link you posted! LOL You can buy them new, but they are over £1000
-
What rear spoiler is this?
That spoiler is a Central20 spoiler. One of the few aftermarket ones I'd have. Lovely looking thing it is. The one in the ebay link is the same. It's NOT OEM, it is actually aftermarket. I'd have bought it if my car hadn't recently gone in for paint. I love it and the M30Z one (Kaira).

The 3000GT :)
Both DSMs are available over there. The Stealth was available in a much lower spec, but the R/T is basically the same as the Twin Turbo model.
-
The 3000GT :)
Looks great Daz. Clean example and a great daily hack (which I think is what you said you were using it for). Not sure the black wheels do it any favours, but the paint looks good and it looks straight. I am sure I saw clear indicators somewhere for the front of those.

JDM side light's
You are correct. They are the same as the early versions. They still have a footprint on the base for adding a bulb holder. That part is smaller too than on early versions, only suitable for a sidelight bulb (501) rather than a 581 which is what you see in the later versions. - - - Updated - - - I believe the US cars (which use the same base as the early versions) have a 501 bulb as their DRL.
