Just after I got my Zed the Managing Directors of the firm i work for bought their 21 year old son a Supra (so he didn't feel insignificant next to a mear employee)

It's a UK spec TT auto in black on 19's.

I knew sooner or later that we'd find ourselves on the same road at the same time and wasn't looking forward to it, especially as he has de cats, Apexi gubbins and some other bits and bobs and recons he's pushing almost 400horse.

The time came last thursday night. He pulled into the petrol station where i was fillin up and challenged me :xxx:

I drove my 16 year old zed the hardest id driven it since i got it. The scramble lasted 5 miles of dual carrageway and winding A road.

And guess what...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I minced him :tongue:

My baby did me proud, although there was a lot of tactical driving invovled he didn't have the edge on me that i thought he would, even on the straits.

As an extra bonus... After having such a rigorous work out, the lazy tappet that usually ticks away when she gets hot has now almost completely quitened down!!!

 

and the morale of the story is... persevere with the unreliability because once you get it sorted, wiping the smile off the face of some smug **** who spent 4 times the money on his ride is priceless!!! :dance:

:dance: :dance: Well done that Zed :bow: It deserves some extra special GO FASTER JUICE as a reward

Love it when a plan comes together!

I had one follow me down the A21, but just as we got to a decent empty straight he turned off!

 

Watch out that your next pay rise isn’t capped!

shouldnt have done really, depends on what state of tune yours is compared to him?? in standard for the UK spec is 326 bhp compared to 280 zed so it would beat you, stage 1 tune would see a supra 400 bhp and a zed 350 ish so again should beat you pretty easily but as we know its alot down to how well the cars are running and alot down to the driver ;)

 

So good kill :)

Your cards will be in your hands on Monday morning. LOL.

 

Well done. I also minced a poopra Mk4 on the M25 near dartford tunnel. :cool:

Mine seems to be running perfectly at long last now.

I'm running a catback veilside SS exhaust, Apexi induction, Twin custom dump valves at the throttles, and a "minor tweak" chip (as told by the guys at zedworld). still stock boost. Don't think i'm running 326 just yet.

 

Oh and it's about time I changed career anyhow :duffer:

Watch out that your next pay rise isn’t capped!

 

What's a pay rise? :(

What's a pay rise? :(

 

It’s that thing that you would have got, had you let the Bosses son beat you!

Hmmmm..... Is the lesser share than the taxman would get worth enough to have to put up with the little shit gloating and rubbing my nose in it at every oportunity if i had let him win?

Never let anyone win, make them earn it.

 

Well done, you don't want little bossman getting all above his self.

Good work dude!!! :bow: I like these 300ZX vs Supra stories!!! :D

I think the supra was in the wrong hands? good kill though

Well done i have also raced a few supras with bigger power and they just dont cut it. well done again.

Always satisfying shafting a little tw*t who thinks he's the dogs :D

 

One more mark up on the club tally board ;)

Could we get Supra sillouettes amde up with a big cross over them like the fighters in WW2 had for enemy kills....

Wouldnt that get some dodgy comments at the JAE. eeeeeerm! nice idea.

Way to spank that a55. Now treat your baby to a good clean and some Shell Optimax.

hmm, can't help think it's something to do with him bein 21 if he's running that much power :)

 

i raced an RX-8 in my cupra today, kept up but didnt have enough to overtake (nor the road-space anyway). i like when sports car owners don't expect it hehe! it's a 5-door lol :D

I had a zed at 19 and that power never scaired me LOL

When i test drove my n/a it seemed quick after a supra and an mr2 gti but i drive it every day so it seems slow now :(

 

TT is the only way to go :D

Trouble is you'll get used to that too. I have at any rate. I'm going to be gutted if I ever have to go back to a "normal" car.

Tell me about it :( I'd always have to have something fast even it its a VX220/Elise or something tucked away in the garage

Best thing to do is have a diesel as an every day car and then when you get in the zed you still appreciate its speed LOL
