Hey guys.

 

Time to say hi on a new forum! If any of you are on DW, have had a skyline or a S-body then you may know me :)

 

I was ready to drive back to uni yesterday and saw a gentleman leaving a house where there has been a 300ZX parked for the last 7 years! I decided to take the plunge and ask him if it was for sale....

 

Bought it by accident then and there lol.

 

 

 

Thats one of my old S13s, so rotten it's just not safe anymore, even as a drift car. So we stripped it.

 

Many questions I have about the Zed, I'll post them in the right section, and be ready for a good project thread! :D

Nicely done, lots of work to do then I guess? what spec is it? a non turbo, twin turbo, manual im guessing?

Yeh I just moved to chesterfield 3 months ago for uni. I'm from Teesside originally which is where the car was found! £700 with a load of spares. It needs a service and MoT by the looks of it. It's also the cleanest Nissan Import I've ever seen. It was only on the road in the UK for 1 summer!

 

It should be down here soon with luck, fancy a meet up? I know loads about S/Rs but nothing about Zeds really!

Nasp Manual. I'll look into turbo conversions, I can do one at home easily, no rush though to be honest. I've been skidding and driving a e36 for 6 months now, so this will feel loads better!

Thank you!

 

Great to have such fast and welcoming replys!

Thank you keymeister :) I've ment to nock on his door for 2 years now, I assumed it would be either an Auto, broke or rusty... as it was neither I was well chuffed at £700!

An absolute steal ! get her cleaned up and get lots of pics taken :)

Late spec na manual, good choice... Mines a 95 but got it a similar way, came up on here as spares/repairs and I put it back on the road, except mines going track spec not drift, but as an ex s13 owner ( and never looked back) the zed's drift so much nicer IMHO.

 

Ironically bought my first zed for uni as well...lol

It was slightly... he wanted £900 and i took £700 in cash, it's bloody spotless underneath too! I just need to learn more about them, I'm also planning some cool mods to save weight but keep it sensible. If i can get it down to R33 weight levels I'd be happy, thats less than 100kg i think

I don't know a thing about the different specs and stuff, I know it has a body kit im not a fan of! lol

 

Well Matt Sam' does well in his, I'm hoping it'll be allot like my R33, well planted but predictable, I can't see it haveing the transition properties of a 13/e36, but thats fine, I can correct that with a heafty clutch kick!

 

my hope is it to be an R33 with more torque and without the expensive RB oil issues!

I thought it was! 110kms on the clocks so thats what 65/70k miles... full service history and no rust under it and only cosmetic stuff in the engine bay (I'll be yanking the motor for a tuck/smooth and paint anyway)

 

I havent seen one in chesterfield yet, just a nasp R33. But i've only been here for 3 months!

 

Who are you on fb? I'm Adam Bainbridge

Found ya... and added :)

Welcome to the club Adam - and good luck with your new purchase!!

 

Richard:cool:

thanks Richard!

Hey m8.

 

Cheap car from the looks of it. I am from R32 GTR background (X2), was gonna get another one but saw mine in Japan and was to tempting......its on its way at the mo, gotta wait 3 weeks.

Get it down to r33 weight? How much does an r33 weigh? Didnt think they were much lighter?

Welcome to the club mate and nice buy. Where about's in Teesside was it? We've got loads of members up here so its a shame you're a bit further south.

 

Give it a wash and get some more pictures up :-)
