good call - but i reckon if the police governing bodies gave em' more doughnuts, they would be easier to deal with! I had a horrid time with my P plates on my zed - and amazingly as soon as i turned 21 and ditched the plates, the cops left me alone! interesting.....

I must say i like having my arm resting on the door handle. Thats why i sit low in the car - only eough to see the top of the bonnet (just). Parking is a bit interesting - just gotta take my time As for the handbrake - i (being in AUS) reckon it is good where it is positioned, but i can see where other people may not like it on LHS cars for instance. If you dont like it - re-position it! You could put it back further, or even mount it (as i have seen) between the door sill and the seat on the other side to where it is originally. There isnt much room down there, but it makes it out of the way!

Guys and gals, I am looking for a good condition front bumper - if you go to my gallery you will see the ding in the front on ei currently have - which my fantastic (!?!?!) brother put in it when he bump-parked it into a parking meter I am in VIC - AUS. Have the dosh to spend - no stuffing anyone around. If you have anything (Oh, and i want it in chrome..) please dont hesitate to email me at michael.partridge@iinet.net.au Cheers!

Mr. C, Nice zed buddy! I got a 73 240Z and mine is in mph - i think it was the 260Z's that had kmh speedo's. I have owned a 1200 Coupe and a 1000 sedan previous so i like the mph speed's.

Guys, How do i set up my ID so that a pic comes up below my name when i post replies on threads etc. ? I dont know vB or anything - I am just an engineer :/ Please help, i want a kewl pic below my name! Cheers mick.

I am with Smokey here - cops are bad most of the time, but they do their job (Although i am against the revenue collecting techniques with speed camera's) and they are the ones coming over at 3am when i have arrrived home from a big night out to find my Zed surrounded by smashed glass, seats slashed and stereo taken.

I must agree with EScanlon in the you should just do the effected area's - costs less and the before mentioned time wasting of having to reclean undercoat off etc will be diminished. :classic:

I must ask why the hell people wanna butcher up a superb car such as the all mighty 240Z/260Z and make it into a fake ferrari? I would love a ferrari (Dont get me wrong) but i cannot afford it (like so many other people) thus i own the next best thing - a 240Z. Everytime i see a hacked-up fake ferrari i really do wonder in amazement as to why......... Horses for courses i guess......

exactly.......:stupid:

Why dont you just do the job right, use primer for what it is for - PRIMING - then paint it while you have the car prepped! Just my idea.... :classic:

hahaha - some of these guys have way too much time on there hands. i love the pimp mobiles though - ganster lowriders are insane...

cheers guys - I will be looking at all options this weekend. ASH - will get in contact soon to see what you have - you runnin Island Magic? I may be there... Anyways thanks guys. Mick. :classic:

Guys & Gals, Anyone in Melb AUS have a nice not-too-over-the-top front spoiler to suit a 240Z? I have $$$ ready and neeed it ASAP. You can email me at michael.partridge@optushome.com.au if you do! Cheers. Mick.

I work at Holden's Engine plant and we were released the pics of this car earlier than the official release - it is just a commodore SS with 4X4 and a few other body mods. really these cars are just a dressed up family car Commodore I would put the cash into my 240Z or buy a Godzilla R34 GTR.
