Hello everyone, Just joined site after buying my first 300zxtt,just wandering if the wheels on it are any good or cheap items.They are longchamps xr4z,also the exhaust is made by Jazma ,any info on these two makes would be appreciated.

Near Southampton and price? Ztech isnt that close and quoted £495 + vat. Car im looking at is willing to knock price of a clutch off as it is starting to slip a little.

New car time again and the Z has to go :( It's been fun and all that but money is burning a hole in my pocket so..... I've narrowed it down to 3 cars - all v. different with pros/cons..just want to get a straw poll from yourselves about what you'd buy from the 3! (1) 911 (964) circa 1991 manual w. 100,000K Met. Grey - good nick (2) 2003 Lotus Elise manual w. 10,000K Blue w. Hardtop - perfect cond. (3) 2003 Nissan 350Z auto w. 15,000K - Import - perfect cond. Some info - I am a lazy bugger and enjoy the auto boxes... I drive wkends only though so could live with a manual So help a guy out - what the f*** will I get?!??!
