Gaz 300 Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 For a spare 300zx its looking very good mate :thumbup: Any more details? Quote
Richie K Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) Is that the one that was on sale here a few months ago?? There were pics of it in his garage?? i'd change out the front bumper for a 99 spec and swap out the rear lights for 99's also and that's the job done:thumbup: Touselcoqs Z, I like it, if the above bits were done. You got a bargain there Lee:thumbup1:. there's a lot of fiddly bits to be done but nothing major is there? Edited January 10, 2016 by Richie K Quote
bird Posted January 10, 2016 Author Posted January 10, 2016 All the interior is out more of less as he was doing some custom stuff with all the switches and things. I'll probably put that lot back to standard and go from there really. needs the brakes fixing too but otherwise, looks pretty good. I plan to get it back on the road though. I agree about the front bumper and the rear lights. I'm not so sure the 99 spec is the way to go in it though tbh. That being said, I'm not sure what is either. The previous owner spend a lot of cash on the car so it's just a shame he lost his motivation and that with working away so much. He had quite a few offers to ultimately break the car which he didn't really want to happen. It's actually a very low mileage zed too but I need to work out what the actual mileage should be as it was in Kim's at around 50k, then the clocks were changed and then ran in MPH but the numbers on the clock were a bit lower. So, I'm not sure what to do here. Quote Membership No 0780 INSURANCE GOOFA Datascan, Conzult, ECUTalk and a few others I have all the rare bits you can't find :tongue::tongue:
groover Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Looks good Lee for a spare lol, i agree far to good to break :thumbup: Quote
Gaz 300 Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 You got a real nice Z there mate and nice to see it saved by a member. http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?182032-Widebody-Zed-TT-Targa-For-Sale-(nearly-finished-project) Quote
Funkysi Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Now I don't like Greddy GRacer bumpers on stock Z32s, but they look good on wide arch cars. ChrisC had one on his and it did look good. Rear lights are not nice, but the rest is pretty and nice for a spare Z. I like the colour! I am looking at buying a spare Z to keep in Texas. Quote
bird Posted January 10, 2016 Author Posted January 10, 2016 It has a lot of positives to be fair. Things like cobra seats, proper full retrim by a dude in sunderland called kish (he's massively expensive too. It's the same person that did Steve-300zx's cream interior a few years back. The body work was done by PPS who as far as I'm aware was the first guy to turn out stunning wide arch zeds back in the day and a former forum trader. The wheels were more expensive than the whole car. It'll be great but there's a lot of work to do as well to be fair. So it'll be a driveway ornament for a while yet. Plus I still love the black zed. - - - Updated - - - I'm sad I pretty much gave a wing west bumper away a little while back Quote Membership No 0780 INSURANCE GOOFA Datascan, Conzult, ECUTalk and a few others I have all the rare bits you can't find :tongue::tongue:
Funkysi Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 That's fine as the Wings West bumper is horrible. It flairs out at the bottom like a petticoat. You did good to give it away, personally I would have doused it in fuel and set it on fire, but giving it away was the next best thing! :) The wheels look like Khan RSCs. They're a decent 2-peice wheel. Quote
Richie K Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Best of luck with her mate, I also like that Daytona Blue, I have no doubt that it's going to be a cracking car when you're finished with it:thumbup1: Quote

It's the one zcentre sell as a venom/cobra something along those lines, I think he calls it. It's exceeding similar to the early TwinZ one. Quote

Funkysi Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 I don't like them generally as they don't suit the lines of the stock Z one little bit, however, on a Strosek kitted Z, they work really quite well. Quote

bird Posted January 10, 2016 Author Posted January 10, 2016 Having read the "for sale" post, I think you are going to have lots of fun with your new project - well done! Thanks Andrew. Regardless, I think it's a nice zed. My main priorities are to get the brakes working, interior in and electrics done. Then mot. And on the face of things apart from a couple of bit of trim, that's all the it needs I believe. I think, if I had a garage / dry place to work on it, wouldn't take too long really. Just depends on whether I want to continue on the custom route the previous owner was going or go back to the normal stuff.
