The smoke issue is probaly turbos as he states.If you can live with it is another problem.Can get embarrassing sat at the lights with smoke pouring out the exhaust.Youd be looking at over a grand to fix it.

Hicas permanently disabled (hicas dash light comes on after several miles as a result, but there is no problem).

 

Ask him how?

A good honest description I would have said, worth taking a good look at. I wouldn't panic overly about the turbo smoke description, mine has done that for 50,000 miles !

Oh, and the HICAS light is probably due to the steering wheel being fitted off centre.

same as above, i like it and it sound ok

Its TonyC's old car.

One of many.

I think that Tony C has had more 300zx's than Paul @ SWZ :)

Quite nice, would have been tempted if I was still looking

good spot :)

Ive seen this car advertised a number of times and always stop to look at the pics. Lovely car.

thanks for the advice guys but ended up buying a different zed . picking it up this wednesday. had a drive of the zed i am picking up and the engine sounds and runs smooth as silk and the bodywork is perfect.

got any pics yet?

Replying to a previous post, I find if the heater is on it keeps the smoking problem down;)

yes i do just look at my rides soz about the bad quality as the previous owner took the pic not me .

Looks nice!

very nice, am gonna put mine up for sale soon
