Welcome Ian, You'll find plenty of assistance on these forums Cheers, Sulio

Good to hear Warren, I hope the 240 makes it as I'm sure many would be as keen as I am to see the new paint. Sorry Rev, I've been meaning to advise change of date. The second half bought surprise tickets to Spiegeltent on the 5th Dec for my birthday so it put me in a pickle over the 5th , anyhow we'll be there til about 9ish maybe later so perhaps you might be able to make it after work!?? Cheers, Sulio

Hi Guys, I had to change the date from the 5 to the 6th of Dec due to commitments. Come along to the next VicZCar meeting at: 5/54 Howleys Rd (last factory), Notting Hill (Melway's Map Ref: 70 G9). Next Thursday 6th Dec 2007 Time: 7:00pm. Drinks & BBQ will be supplied. I hope to have the extended version of the Mt.Buller Cruise playing. Hopefully we can organise a video projector for the night!? Sulio

HI J, Good to see you on the viczcar forums. I hope to have a featured rides artical written up by J in the coming weeks. It's a good read and great car with some nice pics. Cheers, Sulio

ah ok well there you go...that's just the tip of my ignorance on RB motors!

280ZX 2 seater. Is that the black one that was for sale in Geelong about a year ago? Keen to see it one day. Sulio

At a glance looks like a RB26 but the second turbo...!?

Thats weird, when I click on your link it says this car is no longer for sale!??

Hi Guys, Like many of you an early Z always catch's my eye whilst driving around Melbourne and always nice to see one that is clean and well maintained. I came a across this car in Mildura last week. Looks great I just had to take a quick photo as it looks very similar to a Z I used to see all the time in Melbourne that had the plates MADZED, that car had a Leyland V8 in it from memory and the same wheels. I was wondering if it could be the same car!? Anyhow, pics below, love that colour.

Is that a twin turbo RB? Yer, I think most members here drop in to HybridZ every so often. Theres actually a link to it under the Z links button above. Nice Car Joel. Welcome. Sulio

ah thanks rev, all fixed! Yep Saturday it is! Sulio

Hi Guys, Our last overnight cruise meeting in Lilydale through the Black Spurr to Mount Bulla was a great success. The roads were brilliant to drive and the weather of 27 deg C on both days was perfect cruise tempurature for the old Z cars. The icing on the cake was the lush scenary through the rolling hills and winding mountain roads. Dale is preparing an artical with photo's and I will also have a video to be ready with the artical. This region of Victoria offers the best driving about this time of year before it gets hot and the brown grass takes over so we have decided to hit the area of Lake mountain and the Black Spurr once again for a day trip. The planned date is Saturday 15th December 2007. At this point we can make it a 9:30 meeting time leaving at 9:45am sharp. We can once again use Lilydale as a meeting point, across the road from Nissan. Details such as the route to be taken is still to be finalised and I will talk to Craig about this as he is quite familiar with the roads in that area. The end of the run will be for lunch at a loction also to be disclosed at a later time. We can stop for coffee at a midway point, perhaps in Marysville. Some Lake Mountain pics here... http://www.mtbullersprint.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=2184 EDIT: Just a note on the advantadge of having a UHF cb radio, we used them on the Bulla cruise and found them invaluable keeping everyone on track. It was my first time for me to use one on a cruise and I think it made the whole experience that much better as there was on going dialogue between the cars. I bought a 5 Watt hand heldunit that worked fine, (initially was'nt chrged fully but the next day proved better). So buy, borrow or steal one as they really help. Sulio

Well my thoughts on the Lake Mountain day cruise are for Saturday 15th December. I'll post the link to that post shorlty! *EDIT: link added below http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php?topic=1788.0

keep us posted ont he tripples. Mine are still sitting there waiting to be bolted on. Maybe next weekend!? Sulio

That sounds fair enough to me. The guy puts his time into it and you know your getting the right parts for the job so no risk, and delivered to your door. I would have bought the kit if I was'nt in such a rush when I put my flares on. Sulio

...any pics, I could'nt make it

I'm in but I can't do this Wednesday as I'm away for the week back Friday. Good for next week should you want to make it then!? Sulio

what sort of kit are you after???

i THINK SCO_AUS MIGHT HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THE CALSSICZ LINK PICS. ANY HOW DOES'NT MATTER, van is right we really don't need to be that tight on pic approval, I'll e-mail Gav AGAIN, sorry about the caps, rushing to type. sulio Anyhow I'll get a new thread up on a day trip cruise we can do in a couple of weeks. We can poll for the location!? Cheers Sulio

bummer, I'll just have to wait for Gav to approve the ones in our gallery. Not sure why he is taking so long to do it? might have been kidnapped by a lepricorn. If they're not up in the next day or so I'll post them up in a an album somewhere on the net. Sulio

bummer, waiting for Gav to approve them in the galleries. Never mind, the link to the pics currently on classicZ http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=28645

I'll be in for that as my car is currently living at work in Clayton, can always pop in after work!? What time you guys thinking of meeting up???

Fantastic photo and great looking car...but...that rear wing just does'nt do it for me :-\
