Still smoking
I found this was a good help for a smoking problem: https://www.nhs.uk/better-health/quit-smoking/ 🤣 On a serious note, one of my old cars used to smoke only when deaccelerating and/or coasting downhill. Used to smoke really badly. That was the turbo seals.

The 300zx Owners Club Annual General Meeting (AGM) - 25th June 2023
This years club AGM is being held at The British Motor Museum, Banbury Road, Gaydon, Warwickshire CV35 0BJ. More information can be found here: https://www.britishmotormuseum.co.uk/ We have a function room booked and depending on confirmed numbers, a lunch will be laid on as well. We have the room booked from 10am to 3 pm. The BMM is a great museum with lots to see and do, but as an added bonus there happens to be a Classic Ford meeting being held as well! As some members will have further to travel, we are making use of a local hotel to stay on the Saturday night. We normally meet at the hotel, have dinner together, several drinks and then get up on Sunday morning and plan a little drive to the museum for a bit of fun. If you would like to book a room, you can either book it yourself or comment in this thread, we will get the rooms booked and you can pay the hotel on the day. Details on the hotel are here: https://www.marriott.com/en-gb/hotels/bhxwd-delta-hotels-warwick/overview/ Please remember that this is your club and the AGM is for all of you come and meet everyone, make friends and guide the clubs forward path. Without YOU a club would not exist, so we ask you to come to the AGM, make your suggestions, make your critisms and be part of making what you want the club to be. It doesnt matter if your Zed is rusty or not perfect quality, bring it along! We have all owned rusty projects in the past, so dont be ashamed. If your car is in pieces, come along in your daily driver! At the AGM, zeds are important, but the most important bit is you, yourself turning up! Please add to this thread if you are coming on the day or will be joining us for the overnight stay. See you all on the 25th June!

Chiltern Hills Rally - 21st May 2023
The Chiltern Hills Rally is being held at New Road, Weedon, Aylesbury, HP22 4NN. More information can be found here: https://chilternhillsrally.org.uk/ We have a club stand. When you book your tickets via the website, use the link above, then make sure to choose the 300zx owners club stand. If any problems, then let me know. Tickets are £9 per car and that gets you 2x Adults. There is a cut off point so if you want to be in the club stand, then make sure you book ASAP. You CAN NOT be added on the day as the organisers plan the location and space of the stand depending on how many cars have been entered. The southern guys will meet and drive up together, you are more than welcome to join us. Location of show:

To sell or not to sell . . .
Its quite hard to guess a value from a paragraph of text. Some pictures of the car and the failure areas would help people make an informed decision.

Simply Japanese - 23rd July 2023
IMPORTANT: PLEASE DOWNLOAD AND PRINT THE PDF ATTACH TO THE POST. YOU WILL NEED THIS TO GET ONTO OUR STAND! Simply Japanese is being held on SUNDAY 23rd JULY at Beaulieu - details here.... https://www.beaulieu.co.uk/events/simply-japanese/ We have a club stand booked - currently for 10 cars - but can alter that up to two weeks before the show by contacting the organisers. We will be meeting in the Tesco car park in Applemore at 07:30 and then driving to the show together. The meet at the Tesco car park is a fun little pre-meet with the Zed club, toyota club and others meeting there too. The southern guys will meet up along the A27 corridor and drive to Applemore together. Starting at Polegate and collecting other members along the route, it takes about two hours. It then takes about 15 minute to get to the show. We start queuing at about 08:30. If you want to meet up along the route (A27/M27) let me know, I can create a whatsapp group and share my location while I'm driving so you can track our progress and catch up to us. I do not touch my phone while driving, so once we have left, I will be uncontactable until we reach Applemore. A few rules: Tesco have never stopped us from using their car park or complained, as it is a great meeting point with petrol on tap we don't want to lose it, so please, no donuts, burnouts, etc. The New Forest has wild animals, ponies, horses, deer, rabbits, honey badgers... please follow all speed limits and refrain from being silly Inside Beaulieu, once parked up, please leave engines off. They have neighbours and need to keep the noise to a minimum. Location of Applmore Tesco: Location of Show: Route: The 300zx Owners Club (Z32).pdf
