Aren't all Convertables NA's?

Whats the point in spending

£11700 or even £5000 come to that

on a sluggish convertable?

What does NA stand for?

Is it no acceleration?

NATURALLY ASPIRATED i.e non-turbo

That's probably being a little unfair. The NA performance doesn't seem that much worse than an unmodified TT and you don't suffer from f!"£$%g turbo lag.

 

If I hadn't just spent a fortune on a new cylinder header, rust repairs and tyres I would go for it.

The solutions easy guys! Buy it then Twin Turbo it like I'm gonna do with mine!

 

Now that I can understand.

Porsches.

Ferraris.

BMW M3.

XK8.

They are all fast convertables.

Why dont/didnt Nissan do the

same with the 300ZX?

I bet they`ll do the same

with the 350Z.

A slower convertable! Why?

No T-Tops and no Turbo/s

at the moment!(non-convertable)

But perhaps the technology

does away with turbos now.

Are you having a laugh? There is a huge difference in performance.

Perhaps pozidrives turbos

are fooked!

Probably because the chassis of the convertible is not as rigid so they thought it couldn't handle the power. It takes a lot of extra money to design a convertible that can handle close to 300bhp

 

 

 

------------------

Yeah the NA's performance is sluggish compared to the TT, but the convertible chassis in stock format can handle 400BHP according to Jim Wolf!

Posidrive's turbos are in perfect working order. The rest of Posdrive's Z is fooked.

 

- Knackered injector connectors

- Knackered coil pack connectors

- Vacuum leak from hell

- bugger all fuel pressure

- Front end vibrates more than Anne Summers

- Front suspension is shot (I turn the wheel left, she goes right)

 

And I could go on!!!!! But still I love her

aaaaah, Posidrive - that's how you know it's true love! Gio
