Inexpensive??? Dunno what you define as "inexpensive" but I just bought one for 150 bucks from Repco.. (aud)

I searched on google to find that apparently these sporty L series 1.4 litres were sold as a 140Z in South Africa.......... but that doesn't mean it's true.

My lord! You learn something every day eh?

Hmm, I think I was confusing 2 similar videos I've seen. The one I was thinking of had a lighthouse which had a light turn around at an accelerated speed, and some other strange things. My memory is failing me already! :disappoin

Ohh! I've seen that! Looked like the whole movie was done in slow-motion and then dubbed and sped up to me.. :ermm:

Wow, really nice car you have there Symon! Welcome to the club!!! If you've got any questions dont hesitate to ask, there are a lot of very knowledgeable and very KIND people here who all love to help a fellow Z fanatic.

ARGH! They're ALL bloomin' 280ZX's, except for one Z31 :sleepy: :tapemouth

That's SKYLINE to you Mister! Ooh you test my patience...

They're only plastic, nothing a bit of sandpaper wont fix :cheeky: Or maybe I should get the wheels bored out a bit. That would cost money, though... hrmm I gave you a clue! Here's another: they come from Japan!

They're not Z ones, actually. I'll give you a clue though, they have three ducks on them :classic: I'll give it another go... but it's about 1 or 2 mm off at every side. (yes, circles have sides shh!)

hehehehe! you guys are crazy ROFL No, I can't post a picture because my camera isn't working (REALLY!) but I'll draw a diagram. :classic: Now, can anybody actually help me!!! :stupid: ROFL I've tried jamming it in but I really don't think it will fit...

I just got some centre caps for some wheels of mine, and I have a feeling the centre caps are a tad too large! But just before I whip out teh saw and hammer, I thought maybe there may be a trick to this. So.. is there? Or are my caps 2 mm too large? Sorry in advance for the amatuerish question. :stupid:

I found a Z there once or twice... that was good! The 300ZX boys usually don't even know what a 240Z is....................... I don't have my Z anymore so I haven't been for months.

He could be a short fat man, and adjusts the seat to get in and out... I just can't figure out how the ENTIRE interior could get paint on it from just a spray can, which was UNDER the seat...

whoa, how is this possible! Well done... I never raced my Z but I kinda wish I had now Maybe I'll see you round the coast some time...

I tell you! My computer's on the blink, it's still being repaired in Brisbane, so I *cant* post a picture, even if I wanted to! :stupid: btw, nice dogs

Yummmmm what a beauty. But like Alan said, NOT a GTR... and I'm not entirely sure it was even a "GTX/R"... I didnt realise that particular model existed. I still love it! Wonder how much it's worth here in Aus...

ROFL Not too far from the truth really...

Heh, rotary... A 300zx would make a fine choice.

Bloody poms! Yeah, if the cops can't do their job citizens WILL. Must have got the adrenaline pumping with that car chase though, Alan? My dad had a similar thing happen to him, when we were at my uncle's house. The car (funnily enough, an Alfa, too) was parked and these guys came and smashed into it. Dad and my uncle ran out and got in my uncles car (an XR8, for the aussies) and chased them. Eventually they were trapped in a 1 way street... so that story had a happy ending. Sorry to hear about your episode. However if you can get his name the Internet is a very powerful tool... you could easily find out where he lives. :tapemouth

Well, that's true, but not the reason! The real reason is..... well.... I'm not really a man. Well I am, sorta, but only half. And that will change soon anyway. The doctors say I won't feel much afterwards but it will look OK. All show no go, if you know what I mean...
