Dude, you have to do the NSX. They are totally badass and are the next car on my list to buy. Do it.

Is anyone going to put all the funsubbed episodes on DVD when the series is done? I have the bootleg ones from Ebay but would still be willing to buy the other versions just to compare.

They're all region DVDs. So is an Ebay scam better or worse than downloading fansub versions on the internet? I guess it's six of one and half a dozen of the other. Overall I'm happy with what I'm getting for my money.

I don't know if they're actually a scam. I have the first two DVDs (1-6 and 7-12) and the packaging looks pretty official to me. Some of the subtitles aren't the greatest but at least I can watch them in my living room on the big screen. The DVD with volumes 13-18 just came out and I already ordered it from the guy that I bought the first two from. He sends me an email when each new release is available. For $15.99 shipped I think it's a good deal. His Ebay ID is yumiko08 and I recommend him as a seller.

My current girlfriend is just the opposite. First time over to the house I had to explain about the three rusty parts cars sitting in the driveway/garage and told her that they were to be stripped and cut up for scrap. The first thing she asked me was if she could use my reciprocating saw and help. Sounds like a keeper.

Anybody else buy the official DVDs on Ebay? You can get subtitled episodes 1-12 on two different DVDs. They don't cost a lot either.

Rick Astley FTW

I'm interested in these too.

Ha ha ha ha! awesome!

WOW! That's awesome. I'd love to get the bird from you.

I've got this same set and have had them for a long time. My dad originally got them from Harbor Freight back when they did mail order out of a catalog back in the early 80s. Very good quality and and have held up to a lot of use over the years. I should probably go and get another set or two just to have them handy.

Wow. That makes me feel much better about driving my Honda Fit.

Awesome! Imagine listening to the police scanner in a few years: "Unit six, in pursuit of a red Nissan Skyline southbound on the parkway. Wait, make that a black Nissan Skyline. No, it's a blue Skyline. Hold on. Now it's yellow. Never mind. Unit six heading back to station. I need a drink."

I have all the live action movies on CD rom. I bought them from somebody on this site a while back. They're all in Japanese and have no English subtitles but they're still fun to watch. I just wish that they could be played on a regular DVD player.

Any idea where to find the new subs?

I just heard from the seller. He's had some issues lately and said the bumper will be going out shortly. Thanks for all the suggestions. I figured that a post here that spelled out the problem but left out the sellers name would get a positive reaction and it did.

No, I don't know of anybody local to the seller. I'd just prefer that he gets in touch with me to explain what's going on. I try to buy as much as possible from people on this site in the hopes that everybody is trust worthy and honest when dealing with other Z car people.

So I answered an ad in the classified section for a used bumper to fit a '74 260Z. The guy accepted my offer and I sent him the funds on September 27th. Since then, I've gotten no bumper nor any answers to multiple emails, PMs and complaints through Paypal. Of course the guy has been continuing to post here on the HybridZ site like nothings happened so I'm pretty sure he's been getting my emails and messages. I've already filed a claim with Paypal to get my money back and I hope he won't have the stones to fight that since he cannot prove that he shipped the item to me. Without actually naming his name here in an open post, what do guys suggest I do?

Stunning. I'm happy that an enthusiast got ahold of the car and not somebody who'd spend less time and energy being the caretaker.

I've been checking Ebay for a while now and had already thought about making something myself. The most promising idea may be to use a shift knob that has a Datsun logo instead of the pattern on top.

Wow, that is an incredible amount of room to have fun in.

I've been looking for a while now and have not been able to find a Momo style horn button that says Datsun on it. Any ideas where to find them? I'm kinda hoping that they're still available new.

No new subtitled episodes yet?

I think this is the proper way to wear a harness:

Nice. I like the looks of them a lot more than the rewinds.
