Nissan 300zx sales brochure printed in 1991 has this spec in the back.... 0-60 times Man = 5.6 secs Auto 6.1 secs. Only 1/2 a second :)

I agree too.... I think the case of the thirty something bloke would be in the minority of cases, the majority would be in the final stages of a terminal disease...... and the only decent thing to do would be to end the "suffering". If I had only days to live in and in a lot of pain I wouldn't want people standing round looking at me...... just give me an extra hit of "Morphine".... Jobs a gooden!!!

Anyone seen a film called "Mission to Mars" ??? Its got quite a good ending...... and it makes you think!!;)

sounds a bit like a boxer engine on a "Subaru"..... rougher sounding and you can certainly feel the vibration!!:smash::smash:

I'm going to be changing the coil pack connectors and the injector connectors........ funny its cheaper to buy them in the states and have them shipped over than buy them in this country??? I wiil have a bit of soldering to do this weekend:rolleyes:!! As having her as a "Manual"....... driving is totally different, plus the way you have to hold the gearstick ... not on the top like in a "normal" car but gripped on the side like holding a ski pole........... makes me feel like a proper racing driver:tongue:

I love the use of bits of snapped wooden strips:rofl::rofl: and self tapping wood screws!!

Not sure if this is a repost!!!:shock::shock::smash::rant::nono: http://my350z.com/forum/lounge-off-topic/389628-horrible-body-shop-experience-details-inside-350z-ruined.html

Paul did the whole thing and only charged me £1200;) Thanks Legrath theres a few more bits I need to do to her... but shes getting there. Funky..... YES she drives like a different car, also the last time I drove her as an auto was taking it to Pauls place in Somerset two weeks ago, she was taking her time changing into 3rd gear thats why I was having the conversion. So 2 weeks ago I start the long journey to SWZ and 10 mins onto the M25 the gearbox goes and I've only got 1st and 2nd......:mac1:so I carry on and set the criuse at 45 mph and at 4,000 revs ....... for the next 3 hours:xxx:and a full tank of juice. When I bought her I wanted a manual.... but fell in love with her plus the ratio of autos to manuals I new it would be a long time to find the right car/colour/condition/history in the rarer manual!!!

:hyper::hyper: Thanks Paul@SWZ Good bloke, good price, good job:hyper: Even driving my Z 160 miles on 5 cylinders it still felt better than my old auto. Now just got to sort out my crusty coil pack connectors. Thanks again mate:duffer::duffer:

Hi Dan, Did the power feel different being delivered through the manual box compared to the auto??? Nathan

Cheers zx-eyes....... I wasn't sure if he just sold the parts or would do the whole thing. Got in contact :dance: Cars now booked in ...... I will soon have a gearstick:D:nana2::duffer:

I think its now time for a "Manual Conversion" on my UK TT....well my auto box is telling me its time:smash: Can someone point me in the right direction of a good garage to carry out the job, I've already spotted ZEDWORLD @ £1650.00 + vat...... any other places I should look for??Prefer South of the country

Ohh Yes!!!!! :hyper:

£285, Fully Comp, alloys declared,Protected NCB, having the wife on the policy made it cheaper, parked on drive overnight, from Admiral

:rofl::rofl: Think a front tyre blew out ........ she was giving it some through the bend though!!!! http://www.break.com/index/dumb-woman-bus-driver.html

Me too, Sky tv/ Broadband and phone..... its all been good!!
