    Zbum - 513 MB July, 20/30MB day
    Jason - 1.29 GB July, 50/60MB day
    When looking this year. Seems pretty close to those numbers in every month.

    Jason page has few images that are broken. Mainly JPG vs jpg in names.

    They are running in US site of Godaddy currently.

    My Z has been on jackstands for 5 years.
    I could use some help, but hard to find anyone to help me with it. Small progress sometimes, but year since last touched.

    YouTube is really the only thing I enjoy out of "social media" if its even considered that but....

    Donut Media is a automotive channel on YouTube, that I've grown fond of. They have a video talking about pop up headlights. They even made a little jam song about it... that DIDN'T feature any 300ZX pop up lights.

    Well in the full version of this song that they released in January 2021 finally includes more cars, including the 300ZX. The song is kind of hip-hoppy but I appreciate the silliness of it as well as they finally put some Z31's in the video!

    I still keep the Arkansas Z Car Club website up and online along with its forums, but they almost never get used anymore. That decline started when everyone started talking on Facebook as it makes quick messages super easy and folks tend to get a bit lazy.

    What I hate about it is that information gets lost within a couple of weeks if not days or hours depending upon how many people use it.
    It has been the reason for many a slow death of popular forums and websites, but small and large... far and wide.

    Z31.com was a unique experience. That which did not kill you there made you stronger. Made many a post there.
    I agree 100%. A lot of old sites and forums I've used back then are gone or vacant now. Z31.com was like the main place to go on the internet, for me, before Facebook. In fact, the only reason I migrated to Facebook was because all my old online hangout spots were emptying out and disappearing.

    Facebook is the degradation of humanity. Sure its initial idea to allow you be in contact with friends and family far and wide was a decent idea, it quickly turned into a pit of trolls and illiterate idiots. Its ruined relationships and friendships for many, and just causes unnecessary drama.

    I miss the days of having to figure things out on your own, and having to go to a library or book store to sift through magazines and books to find the information you needed. Having to wait and be patient for people to help you, and having to pick up the phone and call someone to get a hold of them. The days when touch screen and wireless technology were only seen in Star Trek or other television shows.

    Indeed.

    It beat you into compliance with a online code of conduct that I still adhere to: Do your research and ask informed and detailed questions to the best of your ability.

    Also don't hotlink, else tubgirl will haunt your dreams.

    My car takes up a prime position in my garage while 2 cars are parked outside, so if it didn't run strong and still allow me to drive it hard I would put a bullet in her head! I wish this board was a little busier, but seems like these type of forums are not as busy as they were back in the old days. I remember Z31.com days with "Morgan" whoever that dude was that board was busy in the 90's and early 2000's and I got tons of great advise, lines on parts and repairs too. This board has been great but it is slow, but I think NICO is slow too and even the biggest Mercedes Benz board I just started using a year ago is pretty slow.
