Still playing Trackmania United Forever, now with customized 350Z Pete

It can serve as either. It comes with the bits you need to convert it for hens. The nesting box at the back can be used as a litter tray area but we've converted it into an extra sleeping area, the litter tray will go onto the concrete slabs. We're also going to insulate the inside and add more sleeping space (enough for 3 cats) Pete

Got our mini cattery finished this week, had to put it on slabs, 21 of them, and cover what used to be a lawn with 5 tons of chippings....hard work. Don't worry, the cats won't live in there ,it's just to house the females when they're in season. Pete

Yes, that's the way it looks to me too. The wheel nuts should have an absolute minimum of 7 or 8 complete turns on the stud and 10 is recommended. Pete

I'm down there 4 or 5 times a week, park up either close to the recycling depot or the click and collect parking area, never had any problems. Can't think of anyone around here who is in the club who has a blue 370 or 350, however Caroline sees a blue 350Z on her way to work in Mold on a fairly regular basis. Pete Flat Dark Blue too. Midnight blue is it? Only Zed I see around Mold, aside from mine, is a dark silver Roadster HR That's probably Caroline's twilight grey, I'm often in Mold too, at least once a week, Silver 350Z, hard to miss really, lol. Don't know of any midnight blue's in this area either. Pete

Me too, I used to drive pretty fast in my younger days, thing was though the sports cars I had only had like 90 bhp. Pete

Gun laws will never change, American reaction will be very predictable, they'll go out and buy even more guns, good news for the gun lobby. Pete

I believe it's so. 'Jetset' is the one to ask. Basically yes. When I worked at the Stanlow Labs (Shell)donkeys years ago you achieved this by adding Tetra Ethyl Lead. This cheap and unsafe dirty method was abandoned in the 70's so the oil companies came up with alternative octane boosters. I've no idea what they actually use these days but iso-octane and toluene will certainly boost the octane rating. From what little I remember basic gasoline has an octane rating in the mid 80's BTW. Pete

Looks to have been further modded since Chris owned it, different wheels, U.K front number plate, black door handles, a few random stickers and the front end looks to have changed as well, however, I'm fairly confident it's the same car, Carbon 3D side skirts are pretty rare. EDIT, My confidence has taken a knock, those look to be Nismo skirts on The O.P'S photos. Pete

My daughters test was cancelled after she'd been sitting in the test centre waiting room for 15 minutes. She was first test of the day and the examiner was late phoning in sick. Pete

I think that is Chris's (Atkin666) old car. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/64781-atkin666-build-thread-update-1572013-new-pictures/ Pete

Welcome along. Pete

ZManalex sells these genuine Nissan parts for £137.50 including VAT and postage. Serviceyourcar in Buckley fitted them for around a £100 plus VAT....I had to have both mine and the wife's Zed done. Pete

Twilight Grey if its an HR. Pete

Yep exactly. Not really heard anything stating what was kept there or anything yet just that it was hazardous materials. BBC reported Sodium cyanide !! Pete

Health and safety is very low down the list of priorities in China, they still have half a dozen or so mining disasters every year. Back in the day when China was pretty much a secretive closed society (not that long ago really) we probably wouldn't have even heard about this for several months or even decades. Pete

I think DJTIMO has a charged 3.8. Pete

I believe that from the top of the wheel arch, no tread should be showing. Pete

I used to charge things up using the rear connector and placing the object to be charged, usually my camera batteries, inside the centre console lid. I guess that the wire was damaged by opening and closing the lid constantly. Pete

Yes, in my case I traced it to a faulty cable. Pete

Nice shiny Azure heading towards Mold this morning. Only saw it from the side so no other details. Pete

Yes, I would mainly agree with that, however mass produced cars of today will last a lot longer than cars made in the 60's, 70's, etc so they'll take a lot longer to reach classic status, at least 50 years I would guess. Classics produced recently will include MX5, NSX, most Lotus's, etc. Pete

Got Caroline's roadster booked in, first available Friday was 30th October!! Going to be a 5 o'clock start to get to Swansea by 9! Pete
