Alrighty Guys!

 

Sold my zed a couple of years ago now after the engine failure but never lost interest in the car!

 

Saw a really nice black one in Beaconsfield at the weekend, if that was one of you guys on here, very nice!

 

Got a Mazda 6 MPS right now - but definitely going to start looking to sell it towards the end of this year / early next year to find me a manual TT, need that fix again! [emoji16]

Good to hear you are coming back mate.:thumbup1:

I'm quite a fan of the 6 MPS, how's it been treating you?

Hello mate,

I bought your zed. Unfortunately she is now dead, (well the body is) the rest of her lives on in an imported shell.

 

It's been a good project so far and she is off the road again now for so more work to be done.:biggrin:

Yeah it's a great car actually! Just put a set of Michelin PS3's on and with 4WD it goes like its on rails!

 

Hasn't missed a beat, I haven't tuned mine but with very little effort (map and filter) they can comfortably sit at 300hp and still return over 25mpg.

Ah, Hey! Sad to hear that, but great that she still lives on!

Yeah she's going like a train, the work now is to tidy her up and get on the show scene next year so you might see most of her again

Awesome [emoji4] I'm tempted to see if I can import one but massively nervous it would just be a dog without being able to see it

Ive imported an RX7 six years ago was better than any I saw in the UK!

 

I imported my ZX last year & dont think its a dog!

 

Last years shot as not on my own computer!

That is seriously nice, other than red, the pearl white really flicks my switch! Was it difficult? My other option was to buy a busted one and see if I can learn by doing and try and fix it

From prior experience I'd feel a lot safer buying a car from a Japanese auction than from any private seller in Ireland. They are meticulous on detail for the most part - I still haven't found some of the imperfections they noted on my car!

Fair enough! Maybe I'll take a closer look at it. Sites likes http://www.japanautodirect.com?

There's a guy on here who's importing quality Z32s. User name is gazwoz - he should be able to find you something and bring it over for you. If you have time and a semi decent budget, then buying from Japan is a really good thing as has been said. Generally the cars are very much better looked after than what you normally see over here. Good ones over here do crop up from time to time, but good ones are getting very thin on the ground, most that are good are owned and have been for many years.

 

Mine was a fresh import when I bought it back in '05 as what I saw even back then wasn't all that great.

Says it's been closed for three years? I used JDMAuctionWatch.

Hah so it does, simply took the first hit from googling to copy in there. Cheers for the advice! A sun roof just isn't quite the same as a T Top [emoji38]
