    The big 50 is coming

    Donington weekend sounds like a great idea, as long as they allow us better site and make a big event of it with us. Happy to help Steve. Perhaps this and some regional events? Tour of Britain, or Wales coast? Perhaps as a charity fundraiser?

    Another Sam story.

    Not painted in France by poles, painted by a very talented Martin Ryland who has restored a stack of 240z to a superb standard. Hats off to the guy. He did OGS over 3 years ago, and through all sorts of weather and lots of miles the paint is still superb. In the 70's it would be covered in...

    Just seen a Samuri in the wild!

    Hi that's me! I made the brave decision 2 years ago to use it every day, sold my car and put it on the road. Done 35,000 in the last 2 years, cost me next to nothing to service, and no devaluation. I commute from Hereford to stoke every week, and travel all over the UK in it. I might be mad, but...

    Annoying misfire from cold

    Ignition I had the same problem for about 2 weeks, a pain when I use it so much. I looked everywhere but the obvious. I replaced plug leads, electronic ignition, disty cap, coil. It would go for a few days when I did this and return. In desperation I took it to a rolling road in Cheltenham...

    Newbie looking for some help :)

    Try Duncan Pearcey Z Farm. He did have a very nice 260Z low mileage and good value.

    Newbie wanting a Z :)

    If you can do it, I would vote spend a bit more try and find a rolling restoration, they do pop up from time to time. Keeps the interest and motivation alive. Duncan Pearcy Z farm (nice bloke) did have a very nice 260, Good luck

    240z

    Nik, Use mine every day, did 12,000 miles in 10 months. I did get it rustproofed. Cost £595. If you google a business called 'before n after', Chris Parkinson I think he is called. Worth considering. I had a TR6 for 30 years, did 3,000 miles in it, and it got written off by a tractor last year...

    200 bhp?

    Its a Samuri, so head, triple 40s GDS manifold, and whatever else Spike did to it. The guy who had the conversion had it back for pistons, cam, baffled sump etc, so I imagine its had work I don't know about. He spent a fortune on it in the late 80s. Then left it to rot, which it did very well!

    200 bhp?

    It's a Samuri, so head, GDS exhaust, and Triple 40s, but he took them apart and put 5 jets instead of the three that were in. It certainly flies.
