Have a look at this site if you want to know EVERYTHING about a model. Not sure they will have Trust ones though ;) http://www.dpreview.com I've got a Sony DSC-F717 and it's amazing but quite large: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/sonydscf717/ I had a Canon IXUS before that and it was great for keeping in your pocket and snapping away. I can get good prices on cameras. If you decide what you want I can let you know how much. Chris.

Where is old Timski? If he's not back soon he'll get a :slap:

I thought you took prawnographic photo's :rofl: :dance: :dance: :dance:

I've got the same silver and blue ones on mine:

It's completely standard :D Off the road right now but should be sorted in the next month ;) Here's a site I'm putting together but still loads to do. http://300zx.servebeer.com Chris.

Ypu'll find your replies on the other thread you posted ;) :rofl:

Seems like everybody I know has their Z off the road at the moment for one reason or another. Chris.

Does sound like a stuck starter motor - giving it a bang with a hammer sometimes sorts it. If it is the starter then jump leads won't help. You would be better to bump start it if its a manual and hope a drive loosens it up. If it's an auto it's an RAC job...

So you were wrong then ;) :rofl: :dance: :dance: :dance:

Oh no it doesn't! LOL 1 - Stays in First 2 - First or Second D - First, Second or Third Jap Spec Hold Button - Stay in highest gear selected (for snow etc) Power Button - Changes up later (for fast driving)

A speed convertor can cause some of this but on mine it was the sensor. The sensor provides the speed signal to everything on the car that needs it - ECU, HICAS, Power Steering, Speedo etc so if the signal goes intermitant the car does strange things. The flashing light you are getting is the auto box diags failing the speed sensor. You could remove the top of the instrument cluster and disconnect the convertor if it has one fitted in 5 minutes. There's just 2 screws in the lid above the perspex over the dials. Drive it for a bit with no convertor and see if the problem goes away. There's another thread going on about this at the mo: http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=25595 Chris.

It looks like your speed sensor on the gearbox has died. Does your HICAS light sometimes come on and the power steering go light at speed and heavy when parking? Quite an easy job to change but I think the part is about £60 ish? Mine got replaced under warranty so I'm not certain on that.

I'll be up for this if I've got the engine back in LOL

Why don't you get a Webcam with built in microphone, they are pretty cheap and you and BigRoy can enjoy more realistic cyber sex :D :rofl:

No probs at all with it other than the launch control which works of the clutch which aint present but even this can be bodged into working if you feel the need.

There are a lot of starving families on this forum LOL :D

I've never been overtaken since I started modding my Z and I've made a couple of GTO's and WRX Scooby's look like they were standing still. Blasted past a Ferrari 348 up a motorway slip road like it was hardly trying (but from the noise, he was!) I raced a Supra for about 15 miles (we were just messing about for an hour after spotting each other in traffic LOL) over country roads and a few A roads. I overtook him twice but kept letting him past to listen to the huge Blitz exhaust he had fitted :) When we stopped at a petrol station to have a chat he was gutted to find out my auto box was broke and I only had 1st and 2nd gears! LOL The only thing thats ever given me a decent race was a 911 Turbo (model before current one). I got stuck in a jam on a dual carriageway and he came along side, when the traffic ahead cleared from rolling 10mph up to about 100 we were dead level before we both had to slow again. If my engine was in my car I'd give this a go! LOL Chris.

I think I got some photo's of it at Billing?

Looking good mate. Don't know how the fuel will go in though ;)

Any pics of these and approx how much? I might be interested even though I have standard silver dials already.

You can't say anything these days... :rofl:

This is a top upgrade and only takes about 15 mins each side to fit! Make sure you get the big Skyline caliper bolts too though.

Put it this way... my wide arches make the rear track about a foot wider than the front and the handling is now amazing ;) I can't see that having it slightly wider at the front would make any difference.

:eek: :rofl: :dance:

I agree but the Police do have roadside testing kits for this so sooner or later you are bound to get tested. It would be a nightmare to have it removed and re-tinted :(
