I am looking at buying a 300zx and i need some advice on what to look for when buying one the problem is i want a manuel and i know they are quite rare.

 

Does any one have a buying guide for the 300zx

 

Also the GTO Vs 300zx day i think shouldbe good as it my boss who made the original post and i personally want to get him on a track and show him what a real car is

Is this a manual or automatic

Ah bless little Peter!

I will take great pleasure in kicking his arse then posting the footage on the company intranet even though I did suggest that he should buy a 300ZX as he can't insure a true Jap supercar like the GTO!!! :rofl:

 

Being serious though, the 300ZX is a great car but its all down to personal preference. I think that the 300ZX is great on a track but not safe for how hard I drive on the road, thats where the GTO is a better car.

 

As for straight line stuff, then I think it will be a good race. With 50/50 advantages on both sides. 300's are nearly 500Kgs lighter than a GTO but if it is raining you get zero grip and we will blow you's away. All being well we will have a sunny day to make it a fair and fun race day.

Mark does belive in his car a lot and once the day is complete and i have shown him how to drive it will be more fun parking next to him at work and gloating

so far the only footage on either site to my knowledge is Pete & his zed absolutely demolishing a GTO on a 1/4 mile run ;) :tongue:

 

as for driving hard on the road, RaceLogic Traction control totally transforms these cars & cant recommend it enough, especially if youre gonna start tuning it :cool:
