Where is everyone?! Sent from some app that I don't know how to use!

Well I was going to wash and polish both cars today, but its chucking it down! Might be arriving in dirty cars!

Could I have two Z club labels set aside for me at Tesco please?

Our Additional Entrance off the B3054 will be signed as “Simply Japanese Additional Entrance” and will be open from 8.30am-11.00am only and operate as a club and general entrance. If you arrive at this entrance before 8.30am or after 11.00am you will be directed round to the main entrance as there is nowhere to wait here. Is that the entrance that last time we used was dusty gravel and covered everyone's cars in fine dust? Sent from some app that I don't know how to use!

My friends and I will be leaving Eastbourne for the Tesco carpark about 5:45am. We have a couple meeting us enroute near Brighton. If any guys from Kent want to meet just let me know! Sent from some app that I don't know how to use!

Don't worry I'll have my jump pack with me this year as my battery is flatter than a very flat thing on a flat trip to Holland... Sent from some app that I don't know how to use!

Just make sure it's not in the database as a Z31. My black import is and I have to double check everything and change the details of the quote. Ends up being about £300-£400 instead of £100-£150! Sent from some app that I don't know how to use!

Actually I did, It wasnt up to the same standard as Top Gear with the previous trio or up to The Grand Tour standard (which really up'ed its game last season) but it was still watchable and both My wife and I enjoyed it

We were at beachy head and watched the Daks fly over. It was a very powerful moment know the last time they did that, they were taking thousands of young men to fight (and die) for our freedom.

Thats how im feeling now! I didnt realise how much I had collected over the five years of ownership!

i would love to, but im working until 5pm....

Wow, I am jealous. That sounds amazing! We need to plan a big rally one year and get loads of Zeds to go. Please post up many pictures to make me more jealous!

I'm glad i'm not the only one that does this.... :lol:

I had a short in my car that was blowing the side/dip beam lights fuse. Turned out to be the plug for the cig lighter socket was lost and when it touched the metal mechanism for the handbrake, it would blow the fuse. took me weeks to work it out! Use a multimeter to work out what has power and what does and work back from there...

Very Cool!

Has anyone thought of taking the AUS forum under our wing and merging? Run both clubs? Host their website or create an AUS section in the forums? Can we donate to help them out?

Yesterday I pulled most of my collection of Nissan bits out of the garden with the aim of selling them. I have an opportunity to drive across American in July and need to raise some money for it! The bits are a collection of a few cars that I have had to break and bits and pieces I have picked up through Zed ownership. Some are excellent and others not so, but I wanted to put everything on here before chucking it just in case someone really needs that one rusty bracket to finish their project! Everything has been kept dry in the garage, however they may have been showing signs of tiredness (rusty!) when going into the garage! The car carpet is a full car carpet although its been cut in the usual place to help it be removed, the boot carpet that goes with it had bleach or some cleaning product split on it prior to my purchase of the car. Might do as a spare or be re-dyed? The alloys are a UK set (the rears are larger) and would need re painting. There is pretty much a full tweed interior in good condition, just need a hoover and clean although the seat isn't great (there is only one seat). The targas, wings and doors look pink in the pictures, but they are red and not faded as they were kept inside, there are two grey wings (although only one in the picture) they has lost the lacquer, so respray needed. There is a red bonnet, which was stored outside, but under another bonnet so mostly protected, but a bit pink. Any questions just let me know, nothing is on ebay, so you all have first bids! EDIT - I have added updated pictures of what is left, please use the link below! https://photos.app.goo.gl/LUzxsx2MuE8TtPg49

Very Nice :thumbup1:

Over the weekend, Eastbourne held its annual free car show. My friend entered one of his Toyota Supras on the Saturday and he kindly let me enter my red Zed on the Sunday under his ticket. Here are some photos from the two days. Eagle-eyed viewers will notice a front bumper change to my car, although its missing the fog lights at the moment and there is a slight colour discrepancy between the bumper/bonnet and the rest of the car! :lol: There were 600 cars on the Saturday and close to 900 on the Sunday, as its not a classic show (Magnificent Motors) there are all types of cars from old classics, to brand new racing Astons. Its a nice day out especially as its free to show and to visit. I have videos of the procession along the seafront, but ill have to upload them to YouTube before providing a link.

Well done nick! Its an amazing looking car and a worthy winner! Thank you to the one person who voted for my car too!

I believe there is a rule that the donor car that currently holds the number plate has to have a valid MOT, you cant, for example, find a rotten pile of junk in a field and take the number plate off it for your car. You would have to rebuild that car, MOT it, then transfer the plate. If the donor car has been off the road for a while, maybe they want to inspect it before allowing the plate swap?

Happy new year, may your year be full of empty (dry!) tarmac and tanks full of best petrol!

That rings a massive bell, I thought it was something like that. It looked quite good and you could have different colour numbers to match your interior.
