Very nice mate :) trust your gut, you dont like the spoiler ;)

 

I hope its everything you hoped it'd be

Nice one mate. TBH the RX7 is what I wanted originally, but I settled for 300ZX. However after owning a Z for so long and after researching the RX7 some more, I feel I made the better choice with the Z for what I wanted it for.

 

I would like to hear your views on it though.

dinna dinna dinna dinna dinna dinna dinna dinna BATMAN! Holy cow Batman, you've got a new batmobile! :D

 

just kidding, hope you enjoy it! if you like it an keep it for a year or two you should be able to pick up a mint condition zed for about £10 by then the way things are going so looks like a good move! :D

looks lovely mate, personally I think you can get better rear spoilers for the rex.

 

what was petrol consumption like on the way back?

 

I've often toyed with picking up one.

Cheers guys, still havn't been out on a fully dry road , the rear tyres are worn smooth by the last owner so Ive been fishtailing quite a bit!

The ride is very very hard but I like that, a cats eye feels like running over a speed hump, there's no play in the suspension at all it feels. Steering is very responsive, zigzag down the road sharply and no body roll at all.

Sequential twin turbo is interesting and fun to drive, 1st turbo doesnt feel as quick as my Z was, but when 2nd turbo comes in at bout 4.7 / 5000 rpm it goes like fook all the way to 8000, so feels quicker than my Z if I redline thru the gears.

It's more plasticky and rattley inside than the Z , and a snug tight fit for me and Im only 5ft8 32w so a big person would be v cramped.

Fuel seems to be about 17/18 mpg but I'll know exactly in another week.

Its still rainin outside :-(
