welcome to the forum mate

Right the list starts abit poor then gets better.

1st 1.3 Vauxhall Astra Merit.

2nd 1.6 Diesel Ford Orion (Astra failed MOT on everything and this was my dads).

3rd 1.6 VW Golf Driver. GTi bumbers etc. A nice car.

4th Honda Civic Vti. Loved it then, still love it, still have it. 6 years of motoring and no probs. Custom intake and exhaust, LOUD when Vtec kicks in.

5th 350z.

It was a case of get a bike license or the Zed. Gonna go for it next year.

Guys have a good one. Would love to make it but work calls. Will be up for the next one. Enjoy

welcome to the forum mate

It starts on BCC2 and HD on Wed 1st October at 9pm. Aired this week in the states. Is available to download, but that would be wrong............

Hey guys any ideas on this. been to couple of places and no one seems to have a clue.

Had one for about 6 weeks now and still loving it. Clutch is stiff and hard not to do first without a little bit of judder, dont really notice it if pulling off quick, more about town in traffic. The driving position, im 6ft 1. would prefer if the drivers seat went a little further back, end up having to recline the seat further to get comfy. Got used to it, is a character of the car in imho.

If that was from JAE i think it was the onr hanging above the entrance to thier tent maybe. Did look good in the flesh, was very tempted.

Welcome to the forum mate.

Yeah looking good. Looking forward to seeing pics when its finished and in.

Nice one mate, you wont be disapointed.

Maybe a silly question, after a first time on track, is it likely to need new tyres or pads, just something i would need to factor in. New front tyres and rears have been on for about 6k. Also does anyone bother with paying the premium for trackday insurance? Not intending on driving mad, just wondered what the consensus really.

If anyone knows of any good airfield days coming up i would definatly be interested in meeting up if any other guys wanna go. Wouldnt mind somewhere with a bit a tuition available. Maybe midlands or below, may stuggle to make a whole weekend of it so would have to make it back the same day.

hmmmm tempting, a long way off tho, quite far for you too. I was hoping something would come up at bedford at some point soon. Its another airfield track so seems like a good place to start.

Wierd, now theres a coincidence. That belonged to the guy that i brought the car from. Cant say he mentioned that he had it at the time, would have tried to get that thrown in too.

Yeah a very interesting read. Iam too pondering the idea of going on the track. Its the only place to really get to know the car, and i think it would be good to pick up some tuition at the same time.

A friend had one of these a few years back. Was a really nice car, he enjoyed pointing out all the facts about it, 1 of which is that the roof panel is the only panel that is shared by the other E30s. Trouble was he was only using at the weekends, one month he had to cough up £500 excess as it was broken into, the beasts couldnt steal it, but in trying to do so they ripped out all of the electrics under the bonnet and dash. total repair bill ended up being £2200, was an expensive night in london that one. The next month he had an expensive BMW service, they kept the car for 2 weeks, then got it back and sold it on.

looking cool. Liking the screen, and yeah the sub enclosures look great.

Picked up the autosol today. works great. On the way back in i walked past my civic looking very dirty, i couldnt resist and do the exhaust on that too, annoying as im gonna have to clean the rest of that too now...

Im away with work that sunday, otherwise count me in. will be along next month for sure.

Cool i will pick some up tomo. Something else to clean now.......

looking quality. Shame your gonna have to put a number plate on at some point.

Looking good, what did you use to clean the exhaust tips? struggling to get mine to that shine....

Looking good i must say. When is the Thurrock met by the way?

I can highly recommend the grey, but i guess i am biased. Theres some pics of mine in http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16096 Had only had it a week so enjoyed the polishing. Still loving it. Its raining here at the mo but still looks good.
