I feel like a newbie again, so I'll act like one!

 

I had a UK Twin Turbo a couple of years back and loved it, then power got to me and I sold it for a Mine's Tuned R32 GTR... well thats now sold and gone over to Sweden, so I thought I best find a nice manual 300zx TT to replace it with... :)

 

After weeks of trawling through Pistonheads, eBay, this forum... I found one pop up - black import, manual, basic mods - and thought I best act quick. Picked it up on saturday and I'm well impressed with it. Goes better than the last one I had (down to the colour I hear :wack: ) and although it won't touch the GTR in the performance stakes, I think the Zs are far comfier and better to drive (IMO) *runs and hides*

 

I had my camera with me, and stormy clouds approaching, thought I'd to some pictures and let them do the talking ;)

Just noticed that too

its a jap plate isnt it. look at the text above the main numbers/letters

And a light up bumper repeater thing, that u.s spec?

 

 

Some JDMs came with illiminated side markers and some didn't. The wiring is actually there. I added mine.

 

...and yes, that's a Jap plate.

Cool, looks nice, wouldnt mind making my rear side light thingys light up...any offers to do them for me,lol?:p liking the number plate too, I take it its legal in the UK? I'm a woman remember, enlighten me:tongue:

Thanks for all your kind comments, my camera set me back a small fortune so I like to make the most of it :tongue: Photos were just taken down the local airfield, nothing special!

 

Regarding the wheels. They suit the car down to the ground, look perfect on it. Cracking offset on them too, no spacers! ;) I need to take one off and have a look at the markings on the back see if they hint at anything, the centre caps read 'ASSO' (sure I got that right lol) although a quick google search and nothing comes up under that name :confused: But they look well made, with the all important polished lip!

 

Yeah hellraiser and Si were right, its a Jap plate. Not only that but its a 'real' jap plate lol... [geek mode]When a car in Japan is exported they have to be de-registered and the plates physically handed over. So TECHNICALLY there should be none available to us foreigners. Although some do slip through the net... ;) [/geek mode]

 

So the plate isn't legal in the UK, but looks great for shows and pictures! Had them for about 5 years now, so no you can't buy them off me! :nono: You can get illuminated Jap plates which look absolutely amazing, but you are then talking mega-money! Plus another nice touch on the car is the dealer badge on the back which is PAINTED on in black & gold... 'Tokyo Nissan' :D

 

I like the illuminated side markers, think they look pretty classy. The Z has coilovers on and pzero rosso's all round, after a spirited drive yesterday I can certainly say it handles brilliantly, not what I expected at all!
