Pics of the 240
Hi Bonnie, A wing on a street car is just for looks. It does have a useful purpose in racing by pushing the rear-end down for added traction. For instance, the Porsche 911 has an automatic wing that raises when the car travels over 60mph. The turbo bug has something similar. But, a wing that big on a Z is purely for looks.

Steve, you are pasting images that are actually on another site. If your computer can't get to the other site (for some reason or another), then they won't appear. I only see broken picts. Best thing to do is save the picture to your hard drive and actually attach the picture to your post. You'll have to submit multiple posts to show more than one image. But, that way the pictures are stored in our database instead of linked to someone else's site. [m]

Got truck?
Not too shabby! Let's hope it does as well as Toyota's Tundra. They really need to make a pure 4-door version. That seems to be the new fad in trucks. I certainly like my F350 4-door! But, it's a tank. Drecord, I know you didn't just say the D word. Dodge?! You must be nuts.

Window Etching - Security
I saw a show last night on the Discovery channel. It was a documentary about the stolen car problems we have here in the US. One piece of advice they mentioned was self-window-etching kits. These kits allow you to etch all of the windows in your car with serial numbers. Point? Car thieves usually don't replace all of the windows in a car because it's too expensive. If they see window etching, they usually move on. This is, at least, true about the thieves stealing the cars for use in a chop shop. Has anyone seen these kits around?

Speeding ticket? how fast?
Wait a second here. I just read that again. YOU were driving HIS car at 181mph. And, HE got HIS license revoked?!

Nissan Strike Threat
Nissan's Sunderland factory, Europe's most productive car plant, could soon be embroiled in its first strike over pay, the Amicus engineering union warned last night. The union said pay talks had broken down at the arbitration service Acas on Friday and the plant, which employs 4,500, was "dangerously close" to its first strike since opening in 1984. But Nissan, conceding that it was the first time it had been forced to go to Acas, insisted talks were continuing and that it still hoped to reach a deal. The plant's works council, a largely non-union body and crucial to the dispute, has so far rejected a 3% pay offer for this year and 2004, pressing instead for 6% in 2003 as a reward for consistently delivering productivity records. Peugeot workers in the TGWU union at the Ryton plant near Coventry, meanwhile, voted 54.2% to strike after rejecting a 7.3%, two year deal in a secret ballot on a 73.4% turnout. The result of the Amicus ballot at Peugeot is due today. The disputes have arisen as the car industry celebrates a 9.1% increase in output last year to 1.63m units, with a 17% rise in exports - many of them from Japanese plants based in Britain - to 1.05m. Under Nissan's complex bargaining procedure, the works council will today put its final offer to the workforce without a recommendation. If that is rejected, Amicus will call a strike ballot among its 800 members at the plant. But the council, which includes five Amicus shop stewards, could opt - with or without company approval - to bring in a full-time union official to help resolve the dispute. If that official failed, a strike would be inevitable. Davey Hall, Amicus's regional secretary, said: "Nissan wants to keep the union out of the company and the plant. But if the ballot is won it would have no alternative but to come to the union, and we would then want a bigger visibility and assurance that we would be involved." Amicus joint leader Derek Simpson, who has been pressing for the renegotiation of no-strike or "sweetheart" deals at Britain's three Japanese car plants, said: "If Amicus had been involved from the start we should have been able to resolve the pay talks before we got into this mess." According to Mr Hall, the works council demand for 6% reflects the success of the plant, which produced 300,000 Micras, Primeras and Almeras last year and plans to raise production to 350,000 in 2003. Pointing out that Sunder land had won the race to build the new Micra against competition from a Renault plant in France, he said: "This is the best performing plant in Europe and the workforce is looking for an adequate response to the quality and productivity records it achieves." Sunderland, where management is seeking a 30% cut in costs to offset the impact of the strong pound, exports most of its output to mainland Europe. Components for the new Micra are 80% sourced in the eu rozone compared with 20% in the UK. At French group Peugeot, Tony Woodley, the TGWU deputy leader, said: "We made it clear to the company that their offer did not match other settlements in the industry. "Peugeot can afford to do better for our members who want a pay offer which reflects their commitment to making Ryton one of the most successful car plants in Europe."

Nissan Strike Threat
Just a bit o' news for ya.... Japanese car giant Nissan could be facing the first ever strike at its UK factory in a dispute over pay. Amicus said the plant at Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, was "dangerously close" to a stoppage, claiming that pay talks had broken down. The company, the first Japanese car firm to open a plant in the UK, said talks were continuing and it hoped to reach agreement. Amicus said the company's works council will present a two-year pay offer, worth 3% in each year, to the 4,500 employees later without a recommendation. "If the workforce rejects the final offer we will obliged to ballot our members for industrial action," said Davey Hall, regional secretary of Amicus which represents 800 workers at the site. The union, which has not been involved in the talks, said it was concerned that a deal it signed with Nissan in the 1980s was not working in the interests of workers or the company. "If Amicus had been involved from the start, we should have been able to resolve the pay talks before we got into this mess," said joint general secretary Derek Simpson. Nissan said all the shop stewards at the Sunderland plant were members of the company's works council and it was up to that body to invite a full-time official from Amicus to any talks. "Talks are ongoing and we are hopeful of reaching a deal," said a Nissan spokesman.

many questions need help
I was 'duped' by that heater thing, too! I always wondered why the heater never put heat through my vents into the cabin. One day someone informed me just like Escanlon. Almost all new cars have this feature. So, I was used to it.
