who else has a 300zx running T28 turbos?

 

i run a pair on mine, and would love to meet another 300 owner with the same setup just to see how it performs, and the setup they/ you use.

 

let me know, if your the guy, or if you know him.

 

thanks in advance.

Aaron, if you think you are lacking in power i would try and have a look at the tubs, just to put your mind at rest, and they are t28's matey. As i said on the drive up to Zedworld, in my experience from dealing with qualified zed mechs, sometimes it is just better to get the facts ur self.

I maybe barking up the wrong tree here......... lol

your farrrrrrrrrrrrr away buddy, really apprecaite it but id like to meet someone that i can go and view/ride in the car.

 

i may give you a ring one evening to talk though if thats ok, ive saved your number.

thanks, Alan , but ive had my car up there twice now, both times they've said the car is fine and is running well....

 

maybe its just my dash clusters that arent accurate due to the sticking problem, i feel the power but the speedo seems not to move as rapidly as id expect.

 

on a side note. did have some fun with an M5 on saturday down the A11 ;-)

lol.

 

(still drinking fuel like a bi*ch though) used 50quids worth on the journey home from z world on sat.

I think i need to take u out in my 300, just so u know what power is there, if u know what i mean....

 

Al.

How would I tell what my turbos are? I have my ebc set at 60% ( ? ) in 1st, 2nd, and

3rd I know I have turbos, in 4th and 5th feels like a normal car.

From the previous owner, if he is telling the truth and has paperwork to back it up. Other than that, get in there and see any makings on the tubs buddy.....

 

Al.

Aaron, bring your motor round my place and we can have a look at your speedo/cluster and swap it if need be to try it out.

 

On the way back from Zedworld you flew past on A14 and I was sitting at 90. We could have had ya if we wanted but instead we just waved from inside the Navara, 'bye bye Aaron'. There didn't seem to be much wrong with the pick-up/acceleration there.

 

I would also take Al up on a ride in his, at least it gives you a comparrison. Don't forget the baby wipes :wink:

And he MUST wipe his feet..............lol :thumbup1:

 

Al. :laugh:

And totally agree with Tony, you flew past at a good pace buddy, very impressed. If you go to Tony's, let me know and i will come over too.

OSY1 and AlanZ

 

funny thing though gents when i went past you two, id been following you at 70-72 according to the speedo. then sped up to 85. and i didnt go any faster than that until i saw an M5.

I am sure Tony was doing 85-90 mate, and you did fly past. I think you need to look at your speedo cluster as Tony said.

 

Al.

Aaron, the only 70-72 that we did was through the average speed camera check on the A14. Errmmmm, my speedo could be out lol.

 

Man, if your Zed drunk £50 on that 120 mile journey????sounds alot. Did you get stuck on a round-about?:lol:

I have worked out roughly what i get.....

1/4 of a tank is approx £30, This gets me 130km. Easy math now.... :yes: Full tank = 520km for £120 = 325 miles. This is driving at a very sensible 70mph. :yawn: Now give the ol' girl some beans, and the miles will be halved... :pinch:

 

Al. :helpsmilie:

120 miles on around £50 is about 15mpg!!!!

 

you should be getting near double that on a long run

 

Not with my set-up matey...... :online2long:

bloody hell Al, 35 quid is only 1/4 a tank... how big is your tank??? mine is from red line to full on just over 70 quid, 35 will give me half a tank

 

and according to your calculations AlanZ £60 in fuel is only 165 miles. so near about the same as mine buddy. :-)
