Markb Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 Hey guys, New member here from Ireland. I've owned a 78 260Z since last Christmas which is currently broken, hence me finding your forum! I'm flying over to Australia to live/work in November and looking forward to it - wasn't expecting such a big Z movement! Mark Quote
Zedsabbath Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 Welcome Mark, quiet night here tonight, they're all down the pub, a beer in hand and watching footing I think Quote
lightmaster240z Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 Welcome to the fun house. May be god ( Gavin) can help you out with your car because he is missing his by now Quote

I'm flying over to Australia to live/work in November and looking forward to it - wasn't expecting such a big Z movement! Mark Hi Mark, I live in Dublin, which Z do you own? I know of only a handful in the country. If you need help with it I'd be willing to lend a hand. Welcome Mark & 'Fiddle-de-de Potato's'. You "Flamin Mongrel" Lurch, you do realise the Irish never say that? Kind of like "Top of the morning", I've not heard it once. . Quote
Markb Posted August 27, 2010 Author Posted August 27, 2010 Hi Gav, It's a reddy/orange 260Z 2+2. Sitting outside has done it no favours, so it's probably no where near as nice as a Z should be, but it's being prepped for a respray as soon as I get it running properly. That's a very generous offer and one I will most likely take you up on! I'm going to the UK for a week tomorrow, but when I get back I may be picking your brains (see my threads in engine and electrical) What colour is your Z? I've only ever seen another one on the road, and that was a green 260z! Thanks for the welcomes guys! Mark Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted August 27, 2010 Administrators Posted August 27, 2010 Hey Mark, Mine is red, but it's at home in Australia. http://www.viczcar.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=random&cat=0&pos=-276 I've been living and working in Ireland for nearly 3 years now, while the Z waits patiently at the old folks place in the garage. I don't have any tools over here, but I'd be happy to lend a hand and help you try and get her running. When you get a chance throw a few pics up. Quote
Markb Posted August 27, 2010 Author Posted August 27, 2010 Hi Gav, Thanks for that man. Your 240Z is infinitely better than my Z. She's a bit rough at the moment Here's a photo from the ferry when I brought it home: It shares workshop space with my two other cars: & Gav, I'll definitely take you up on that offer mate - it's always good to have a fresh pair of eyes, as I'm getting very very frustrated!

Markb Posted August 27, 2010 Author Posted August 27, 2010 Welcome Mark, Whereabouts will you be living in Australia? Hi Zed - missed your post! We're flying into Perth first, doing the touristy thing on West and East Coast and then hopefully settling down in the Melbourne area. Never been there so no idea where we'll wanna live! Quote
bryan3976 Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 welcome to the forum hmm i like that merk hell flush Quote
Moderators Zedman240® Posted August 28, 2010 Moderators Posted August 28, 2010 You'll have to move to Melbourne; the ZED capital of Australia (I'm sure many on here will agree ) Quote
