General Discussions - Non 300ZX

I have a dilema, Ive persuaded my dad to get rid of his faithful rover and treat himself to a Jag as at 64 he needs an auto gearbox. I told him id need £6 to £7k plus his rover so i think i have upto £8.5k to spend, could possibly push him to £10k. Bear in mind that i will get to drive it i want the best, ie fastest!!!, i can find. Ive discovered that the XJR was a supercharged 4.0 V6 untill 1998 when they used the V8 instead. With the budget i have i will struggle to get a 1998 model XJR so may have to settle for the V6, but could manage to get a normal XJ8 but id like the fastest i can find. Does anyone know if the V8 is meant to be alot better …

Its only 'ickle so thought I would see if it would fit where the clock normally does. Needed to cut a very small amount of the plastic to get a snug fit. Just the corners of the hole really. Think it will look nice and neat there when its all installed back in the Z. Could've just mounted it from behind (oo-er) but it would've been a bit fiddley to get my sausage fingers onto the buttons and esp the r'h's dial. So cut a bit of plastic away with a stanley knife and pushed it through so it was flush. .........factory fitted boost controller!!

Correct Answers To The Chicken Road Joke: Why did the chicken cross the road? SAEED AL SAHAF -Iraqi Head of Information "The chicken did not cross the road. This is a complete fabrication.
