Yes the hard top is brilliant for the winter and looks cool, it's got a heated rear screen which gives better rear view than the window in the soft top. You'll need space to store it. if you have a garage that you can drive the car into get yourself a hoist. makes it easier to put on and take off. O...

Sounds great!!

Lane hoggers are a pain. The correct approach should be: If the carriageway is clear keep to the left lane. Use the middle and right lane for overtaking. You are however, allowed to stay in the middle lane if you will continually change from middle to left and back again to pass slower moving traffi...

Ok so breaking on bends will definitely give you handling problems Foxy. Reason being when you break the weight of the car moves to the front, ok, when you turn the weight of the car goes in a straight line so moving the weight to the outside of the turn ie:if you turn left the weight moves to the r...

I've heard that the rear anti roll bar (sway bar) has been known to come out of it's mountings. I think they either pop back in or needs new bushes. There may be previous threads on this. Could even be low tyre pressure. Also the top suspension mountings can break.

Runroadster

It's probably the tyres Foxy.
I've heard Yoko's are lethal in the wet, I use Eagle F1's and believe me they stick to road even in the wet. Also make sure you keep the car balanced with new tyres all round if you do change them.

Runroadster

Thanks for the input guys.
Well that lays any desires I might have had to rest, I have had next to no trouble with the Z. Every time I drive it I fall in Love again. Not sure whether to send Z flowers today or the wife.

Runroadster

Drove the TT Quatro today really impressed with the solid sure footed feel of it, but it just didn't push me back into the seat like the z does and the sound of the straight six purring away just wasn't there.
Although I like the TT I would'nt swap the Z for one.

Runroadster

Yeah and I've seen it!!

Runroadster

Well done guys nice to see the board back on line.

Runroadster

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all at zroadster.net hope to see you on some runs in the new year.

Runroadster

Looks great. Have you thought about getting roll bars, they look great and add to your safety. A must on soft tops I think. I love the low front view of the Z's too.

I'm 30-16, I started again from 30. Makes me feel better!

My Daughter got a ticket before the restricted time even started. Her's a copy of the letter we sent: Dear Sirs, Further to my previous letter concerning the parking ticket WF73484926 dated 6th July 2005 at 9.39 in Kirkdale Road E11 I would like to bring your attention to the fact that at the point ...

Cheers I'll check with the locals.

Thanks Jay could you tell me who sells them.

Hi guys, hope all are well, can anyone recommend a decent replacement set of rear speakers that pop straight in, my rears have had it. I've replaced the head set with a sonycdx-ca900.

Runroadster

Alfie no need to apologise no offence taken, I guess I'm just that pissed off I'm not handling the dissapointment too well, I wonder if I can make them fall out before friday. Tim he is so rapped up in his own little world he wouldn't know what any one else is doing. They've told every body when it ...

Runroadster

Spokey and his Flying Pigs!!!!!

Runroadster

Hey Alfie not sure what that's supposed to mean. Lakes 2004 was our very first cruise and we had a great time, thoroughly enjoyed it and have waited a whole year for this one. Now our son just two weeks before the lakes weekend announces he's having the engagement party on the 21st, we obviously hav...

Runroadster

Hi guys, son has announced this weekend he and his girlfriend are engaged and the party is on the 21st, so unless they fall out which isn't likely sadly we won't be able to join you this year.
On one hand tears of joy on the other tears of sorrow. Hope you all have a good time.
Cheers Tony & Reet

My alarm kept going off, someone on the board advised me it could be the bonnet sensor. So I took it off, and guess what, no more false alarming. On looking at the design of the sensor it looks as if it drags dirt up each time it opens and closes, I cleaned it with WD40 haven't had a problem since. ...

Runroadster

Grey house? grey walls? grey door? grey wallpaper? grey paint? and absolutely no flowers, no TV. Just Whisky to keep you company?

Runroadster

Hopping Mad we missed this one but unforseen events would have prevented us from making it. Glad you all had a good time.

Runroadster

Sounds good to me Tim.

Runroadster

I've got Bilstein Sports on NICE!

Runroadster

You'll find strutt braces improve the handling cosiderably. Stiffer shocks make it even better. I've driven a boxter and it felt solid, My Z with these mods feels just as good.

Runroadster

Wouldn't miss it sign us up please. Perhaps we can do a convoy from South Mimms. Alfie Bloke Rob Spokey I promise we won't be late.

Some one slashed our two front tyres last night, on our drive right in front of our door. They literally had to stand in front of our front door to do it. AAAAAAgh. If I get my hands on them..... I've got a good idea who it might be and have had a word with the family. I caught the illegitamate son ...

So the organisers get each driver to sign a form to say that participating driver and they alone are responsible for there actions and anything deriving from it, and that the organisers are in no way shape or form accountable.

Vanos as far as I know is on the Z3M it's covered under warranty up to 100,000 miles. I own a 99 2.8 and the problems I have had are negligable.

Thanks to David and Pienne (sorry if I spelt it wrong) for a good fun run. Our friends Bev & Tim enjoyed it, Tim said he had to work hard to keep up, but I think he managed ok.

Meeting 8.45 Rob I hope

Our buddies: Bev & Tim (MX5)

Runroadster

Yep we'll be there 8.45 Sunday.

Bullit for me but Italian Job for Reet

Runroadster

Recommend doing the front strutt first, then if you want to go further the butt strutt then body brace. You can't fit the body brace without the butt strut anyway. You'll notice a big difference as soon as you put the front strutt on. But as fit the rest car seems complete.

Runroadster

Spokey, I put Bilstein shocks all round on our Z3 they cost me about £400
made the ride feel nice and firm. And because I kept the same springs the ride is comfortable and not lowered.

Runroadster

Very interested. practically a definately.

Runroadster

Yep! We'll be at south Mimms, what time?
Tony & Reet With Bev & Tim.

Runroadster

Hi David is it ok for friends of ours to join us in their MX5.

Runroadster

Had the whole set: front, butt and body brace for a long time now wouldn't be without any of it, the car feels positive and the front feels connected to the back.

Runroadster

Can't teach to drive in the Z so I only get to drive some evenings and weekends

. Reet's got company car so she doesn't get to drive it either

Reet and I were on a tour bus on Sunday 9th Jan going up Avenue Des Champs- Elysees and saw 2 red Z3's going past one a coupe and the other a roadster. Any one we know on the board?
