Mr Camouflage Posted February 26, 2005 Share #25 Posted February 26, 2005 Hey! I may ask some pretty daft questions about mechanics, but I'm not dumb.Thanks for the explanations guys. Just a saying, is all. Wasn't trying to imply anything. Though you did sell your 240Z and bought a 240K. Got a scan of a 240K GT article for you Alfa from Sports Car World april '73, if you dont already have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Camouflage Posted February 28, 2005 Share #27 Posted February 28, 2005 Have you got Motor Manual April 1973? I got it in a job lot of mags, but page 33/34 was missing. It has an article on the Skyline GT-R. I wouldnt mind reading it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfadog Posted February 28, 2005 Share #28 Posted February 28, 2005 No mate, haven't got that one... I would like that article though!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted March 1, 2005 Share #29 Posted March 1, 2005 Anyone have the DVR (tivo) with a DVD-burner? That would be a way to capture the commercial.PS: The easiest explaination for this unit? A Digital Video Recorder. It will record video on a hard-drive instead of a VHS tape. The best quality? It's intelligent and will find your programs and record them.

cygnusx1 Posted March 5, 2005 Share #30 Posted March 5, 2005 OK lets get back to the point. Set your TiVo up to record Valvoline commercials. Full House, 3 channels, rabbit ears? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biker Posted March 5, 2005 Share #31 Posted March 5, 2005 I know that this was not on TV (or TiVo) but I am currently doing a course at Tech on spray painting so that I can get the courage up to spray the Zed.Lo and behold the teacher puts on a video (yeah, we still have them down here in Oz) and the restoration project on the video was spraying a 240Z white!!Woo Hoo - offered the teacher my Zed for a new video as he said that the video was starting to get dated.biker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Camouflage Posted May 30, 2005 Share #32 Posted May 30, 2005 Watching Myth Busters tonight. Theres a white 280Z in the background when they are trying to make quicksand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeW Posted May 30, 2005 Share #33 Posted May 30, 2005 Watching Myth Busters tonight. Theres a white 280Z in the background when they are trying to make quicksand.I've noticed that before. I think it belongs to "Scottie", the blond welder. The reason I say this is that they actually used the car in another episode. It was the show where they wanted to see if a toy car rolling down a hill would be faster than a real car. In order to test the theoretical speed limit of the toy car they actually jacked up the 280Z and held the toy car on top of the rear tire letting it roll along as the tire spun. Scottie was behind the wheel and got it up to 60mph or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
