Great looking car and just in time for Japfest in April

Having looked at the Ace Cafe list of planned events over the coming months and beyond would it be fair to assume there will not be a 350z meet at this iconic cafe this year which would be understandable given the poor attendance last year.

I hope no other club members are having the same problem I am having with Kelsey Media I was sent an email from them before Christmas confirming my payment for the Japfest event but no ticket attached as stated so I emailed them to ask where ticket was and had an automated reply stating they were closed until 3rd January which was fine but then the same email has been sent to me continuously since 24th Dec every day I am receiving over 30 same emails per day from 6am until late at night, bloody annoying to put it mildly. 😡

Hi Andy Thank you for adding my name to the list I guess from past shows you remembered I am IT illiterate amongst other things although did manage to change the spark plugs 🤷‍♂️😹

well I have sorted advanced as now had an email confirming I have purchased a club ticket however the ticket was not attached to the confirmation as stated but hey ho it’s Christmas 🎄

Not sure whether anyone else having difficulty with purchasing tickets I have been on the site filled in all the details referring to club etc paid the £23+ but then nothing no reply nothing but can see on my credit card the payment has been made, I have emailed them but so far no reply 🤷‍♂️

Thank you all for your seasons greetings and I have to say that over my many many years I have belonged to various clubs but this is the only one I have felt I have belonged and I owe it to all those I have met since joining after purchasing my Zed 6+ years ago, there were some great meetings this year and I am looking forward to our meetings in 2023.

yes I had an email from Kelsey today reference Japfest but couldn’t see any dates, certainly will be going as given what has been a wretched year one way or another it’s great to have something to look forward to in 2023.

Hi Club Members I would like to take this opportunity to wish all of you a very happy Christmas and best wishes for 2023.

Great pictures and glad the weather was kind sad to have missed it but congratulations to Davey for once again organising a great get together. 🤗🤗

Hi David sorry to say I may have to miss the meet at Milbecks as I have tested positive for covid today I help out at a Primary School in Northampton and felt unwell yesterday so tested today and after avoiding it since it began now I have managed to get it. I will take a test Sunday morning but I have a feeling it won’t be negative, I shall miss my scone with jam and cream and a cappuccino in the cafe and the opportunity to buy something I don’t need in the shopping area. If I do not make it I hope you all have a great day.

Christmas bah humbug see you there.

Ps what time do you expect to get to Melbicks

I certainly enjoyed my scone with jam and cream washed down by a very palatable cappuccino last time we were there which doesn’t seem that long ago so will be there buying something in the garden centre I don’t really need. 🤷‍♂️

I think the plug number indicates Laser Platinum although no idea what the difference is between them and Iridium 🤷‍♂️

Certainly tired is one way of describing both them and myself after doing it, when they are due to be changed again I might go for the easier option of changing the car. I know they have been in the car since 2006 as only second owner at 25,000 with full service history, the ones pulled out are NGK R PLFR5A11 I am assuming that the R stood for racing back in the day. 🤷‍♂️

Changed plugs today which was more of a marathon than a sprint, they had been in for 16 years and 57,000 miles and clearly showed signs of having been but to be fair never any issues however the new iridium tipped ones have certainly improved response power wise.

Well I can report that there was a good turnout for todays meeting and despite the fact Davey organised it and the weather forecast was not favourable for an outdoor car meeting it stayed dry and actually brightened up later on. 171 miles there and back but glad I went as friendly group as usual and I learnt more about my car today than I have in last 6 years of owning it from a member I only met last Sunday for first time and lives in my own county of Northamptonshire. Well done again to Davey for organising it and sorry you couldn’t make it.

I hope so as had to apply for a passport to travel that far north 🤷‍♂️😂

Great so now I know my hair is the same colour on top 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

No problem as I do enjoy these meetings and despite being twice if not three times the age of some of those there today and know nothing about the technical side of the vehicles I always feel welcome as Z owners are such a friendly bunch, keep up the good work Dave as I know it is much appreciated by the members.

If I can circumnavigate my way off the M6 to the Garden Centre I hope to make it mind you the car is in for it’s MOT today and haven’t heard back from them yet 🤞
