Saw one the other day, which for me is quite a rare thing and they just have such a menacing road presence! And the V6 turbo sounded lurrrrvly.

Still not sure if I'd ever own one thou!

bit plastic for my liking but the engine does sound good

Lovely cars, drive like a go kart, look and sound the bollocks, just a bit too slow.

nice reg

You can turbo them with some bolt on kits from APS - but don't go above about 8-9psi or it WILL throw a rod...

There are a few good turbo converted ones with fully built engines that make 500bhp all day everyday.

Oh - and it's 350Z - the ZX was the old 300

900ss

Given the option i'd go for a minta 240z

If I sold my escort cos I would deffo consider A 350 Z

as said they are not turbo charged. Can be super charged . A mate of mine has one

Muzz

I just think they are ugly barges

Lovely cars with a few subtle mods.

Nice to drive too, nothing mega at all, but nice allrounder.

Go a lot better when a bit of forced inductions added, superchargers ok, but a proper built engine and a turbo gets em going properly...

Certainly wouldnt call em a barge, drive/handle v.well...

i like the 300zx turbos

my mate had one and if i got to drive that before i bought my cosy i would of had one of those instead

nice comfy cruiser but can pack a punch aswell

i borrowed his for a week and didnt want to give it back was running just under 400 horses aswell

old school nissans are proper cool i think from the 260,280 z31 and z32

mty mate as a lovely z31 sat in his garden that hes owned for 8years now, possibly going rb26 aswell


but if you can find one id go 200zr

Stavros

and the chances of finding one in the UK are how slim?

ugly as hell tho that same i reckon

Had a drive in a 300ZX last night, the "Fairlady" edition - a shade over 300 horses and similar torque, pair of turbo's and it went like stink, was rather impressed - 4 wheel steering took a bit to get used to, but nice and precise with good road holding.

Best thing was, for me, the ability to illuminate the rear wheels while doing about 60, they spin up so easily

theres one that keeps popping up on ebay now and then

my mate was going to buy it but it had engine troubles

and teh owner didnt know what was wrong as every garage it went too couldnt find the fault

but some of them do look proper cool the ones of seen on japanese sites

MY old chap also had a mint white UK spec 300ZX TT, for a good few years. Mega fast, bit of a barge though.

Stavros

Its only a RB20DET, same as found in hundreds of thousands of R32GTSTs, Cefiros, Glorias, etc etc etc, mega common engine.

Can pick one up over here for a couple of hundred quid as they not exactly sought after and pretty common. People always selling em as they usually take the RB20 out and put in summat else.

true

they but the best ones of seen have the rb26 with a lot of mods

Wazzzer

my mates just go t his license back after being a cock in his 300ZX, they're superb cars for drifting (or trying at least lol)

cfoster

I had a manual 300zx twin turbo a fair few years back, i fookin loved it! Loads of road presence, quick (for a barge!! ) and a real head turner!!!! Looks quite dated now though id say but a lot of car for the money. Heres my old beasty!!

Wazzzer

Chris you've owned too many cars
