IRC has been around since before the World Wide Web (WWW). It is a chat protocol to send instant messages across the Internet. Here is a link to learn about IRC. The software you use for IRC is up to you, there are several. I used mIRC for many years during the 90's as it was the most popular and is supported to this day. If you've never heard of IRC or never tried it, you'll be opened up to a whole new world you never knew existed. Most people these days use "chat" software like MSN, AIM, ICQ, or Yahoo Messenger. This is "chat" to them. You cannot use this software to access IRC networks. These are all derivatives of the original IRC, but they are more peer-to-peer rather than through servers. Some site have chatrooms that use java applets to run IRC. So, what we can do is setup a channel(s) (chatroom) on an IRC network of which there are many. Using a client-server based chat program allows you to set up permanent channels with much more control than normal chat. But I'm getting ahead, we need to discuss more fundamental things. Let's discuss this.

Beandip, Nissan can kiss my white American arse.

Only the real flamers have been burned, the rest we leave alone. And another thing, make me pharoah of Nissan for about three months. I'll run that Hanayama, Hawana or whatever out of Japan. Matsuo will be reinstated as Design Czar and the G35 Department will be shot. I've changed my mind though, we'll use an L24 and put three blowers on it. :devious: We may have to cut a hole in the hood and mount a parascope so the driver can see. It's late and I'm losing it. :stupid:

No, I think it's time for Nissan to stop screwing around and build the Z we all wanted from the beginning. We don't need turbos and all that other BS. Get a 300ZX if you want that. We need simple, light weight, plain and a modern 240Z look. I mean a real 240Z look, not that nuance crap we had to settle for. Putting three gauges in the dash doesn't equal a 240Z, Mercedes had that too. No power window, door locks or any of that other crap that adds weight. No Z logos with three dots down the middle, except maybe the sissy model. I want my Z logo to look like the one in the upper left corner of this screen. I want to close and move the design studio out of La Jolla to somewhere like Alabama or Texas, North Carolina or Virginia, where real men live. How close to San Francisco is La Jolla? No more gay, pansy designs. It'll be called the Katayama Z, with his signature on the fender. No pansy pastel colors either.

Minus $1000 for the turned horn pad. I love that color, hehehehe.

I would like to know how many people would be interested in purchasing 240Z springs manufactured to Nissan OEM or Euro specs. If you're interested, state how many sets you'd be interested in (if more than one). In general, Nissan Euro springs are 15% stiffer with little or no change in ride height.

You know I wish that we could know more about some of the Z parts/car sellers on ebay. I'd like to know if a seller is an IZCC member or Classic Z car member or whatever. It would be nice if we could talk to those among us that are selling on ebay. I use the same username here as on ebay, so can't miss me.

hls30, only if they have the little Z emblem in them, cause I want people to think they're OEM.

You might be on to something, ya know??? :stupid:

Whoever did those videos for Z Club of Texas, knew what they were doing.

I'm thinking of having my bushings machined out of stainless. I want good, firm handling not that sloppy factory handling. They'll be painted safety orange for extra visibility at night.

Maybe they think it looks cool.

How did they get all these videos?

Cool that it got screwed up?

Too bad you can't watch the video now.

If I was a dentist I'd probably be able to afford to fix this bucket of bolts.

My transmission tunnel is just as pretty as Carl's.

Well excuse me Alfadog. :tapemouth Kats, every Z owner in the US except Alfadog.

:sick: This reminds me that I almost got rearended by a minivan yesterday evening while trying to make a left turn into my neighborhood. I had my blinker on and looked in the rearview mirror to see the van barreling up behind me and then closely going around my right, followed by another car. They made a big dust cloud along the shoulder. It was scarey, for me and the Z.

Kats, don't worry, I believe everyone here and in the US at least agrees with your comments regarding the A550X. Carl Beck has done an outstanding job educating and communicating on this issue. http://zhome.com/History/Truth/A550Xvs240Z.htm

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH, join the club Carl. It's the story of my life. :stupid:

I measured my stock front sway bar it was just under 3/4".

I just got the sketch of one of those spindle pullers that are around. Not sure if it's beandip's.
