Auto tt vs NA Manual
Yeah maybe 90 odd bhp to 300 odd bhp is a bit much. There's a nice NA one that I may well go for. What can I expect 0-60 from the NA manual? I read 7.5 that about right?

Auto tt vs NA Manual
Thanks for the replies guys. I will wait to look for what I want. I dunno why but the wish list I have is apparently uk spec but I these UK cars must be some sort of Nissan Legend. I am wondering if I really need a twin turbo though. And the reason I'm wondering this? I currently drive a ford fiesta and my previous car was a nissan micra. Although 0-10 mph is only a few seconds off the ford gt I hear ;)

Auto tt vs NA Manual
I dunno if anyone read my post about my ideal car... 2+2 Twin Turbo Manual Targa Seems whenever I think I've found a z32 I want one of them bites me on the bum. I rang about one today but the guy wasnt in. He rang back while I was caught unawares (without my list of questions to hand) but it was ok we talked a while and I asked loads of questions. The car sounded great! Then just as we were about to go he says... oh yeah its automatic. AAARRGGG! The FIRST question on my list and I forgot it. Now I know a lot of people will actually prefer the auto's but I really want a manual. Or I'll find a manual and think YES! But then it turns out to by a NA. So what would you prefer? The auto TT or a Manual NA? Kind of a silly question but believe me it would be help and advice so any replies would be great. Thanks again Al (z32 owner wannabe)

Speed bumps...
Hmm Multi storey? Can stock cars get up those ok? Shopping Malls and their car parks are a big part of my life! Al

Speed bumps...
how does putting on 18s solve the problem? The diameter of the tires don't change do they? Or do they? I really don't know. So are bumps a problem even in stock form?

Speed bumps...
lol. Just as long you can tell the difference between walking policemen and the sleeping variety.

Speed bumps...
So how do you guys deal with them? Or aren't they a problem? Al

Best z32 year...
Hmm interesting. I read that the vvt didn't impede performance though cus of uprated cams. I think I read that here actually. Al
-
Best z32 year...
I can't help but notice that most of the z32's I see are 1990 models. With that in mind is there a year where the car was at its peak? Or are they prety much all the same performance wise? Al

Variable Valve Timing...
Good luck with the MOT, let us know how it goes. Al

Variable Valve Timing...
I hear a lot about emissions. So does that mean pre 96 cars don't pass their mot? I mean they must so does that mean the mot is less strict than the guidlines for new cars? Sorry all I ever do is ask questions. Maybe in a few months I'll be able to answer some. Al

Variable Valve Timing...

Variable Valve Timing...
Is it true it was only available pre-1992? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NISSAN-300ZX-300-ZX-TWIN-TURBO-UK-CAR-400-JUST-SPENT_W0QQitemZ4632437092QQcategoryZ18238QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Thats where I read that. Al

Does this z exist?
Does the back end of your car fit over the top of the original back end or is it a replacement?
-
Does this z exist?
I dunno why I sit so far forward, I reckon its probably stuck from getting it wrong on my very first driving lesson.
-
Does this z exist?
Well I sit unusually far forward and a lot of people make fun of me for it. So I tell 'em thats how the racers sit ;)

Does this z exist?
excellent z32king thanks for that!
-
Does this z exist?
hmm rear qtr? What would be in there? Another question, I know all the reviews slag off the rear leg room of this type of car. But how does the rear leg room of the zx compare with say a super mini like a micra or fiesta?
-
Does this z exist?
oh z32king great looking car especially with the graphics gone.
-
Does this z exist?
Would I be right in thinking that if a picture shows a front seat with the lift lever on it then its a 2+2?
-
Does this z exist?
Thats excellent. I read that the 2+2 turbo wasnt available in america but me being in the uk, it didn't really help. And all the used car ads miss out bits of the info. Thanks a lot.

Does this z exist?
I'm looking to buy a Z and although I've scoured the net I haven't found a definitive answer to this question: Does this car exist? 300zx Twin Turbo 2+2 Manual Targa Roof I've been after a jap sports car for a while now. I was originally looking at the celica gt4 (st205), then the 200sx/silvia (s14). I was looking at mr2 t-bars also cus I love that targa top, but I'd never get one as they are only 2 seaters. Thats when I remembered the zx and all other cars are now out the window. The description above is that of my ideal car. So... If anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated. Al
