:shock: was my reaction

Try this link http://www.escort-us.com/1-4ET.htm enter your car weight in lb (about 3615lb) 1/4 mile is 11.87 with 500bhp at flywheel. Esitmates only. As for redline in 5th, it is possible to do it with 325bhp at wheels, trust me on that ;)

Excellant result. Wish I had the money to get to this sort of power.

Was thinking this myself. Do I really want to see loads of scoobs, supras, MR2's, celica's etc etc I see enough of them on the roads! The only reason I would go to billing is to see you lot on here, suppose thats good enough reason :)

Good greif, did not think it was going to be that bad of a job! Would a second hand Jap spec cross member fit a UK car as it may be in better condition, or should I be looking at getting a new one?

Failed on front cross member corrosion (front strut bar below Rad?) . My machanic needs to know how he can get to it easily, does it involve removing the water rad and all the other rad's oil and aircon, or can they just be loosened and moved to one side? Also aprox how long will it take to get to the cross member as he can't give me a price on repair until he gets a rough idea? Cheers.

A manwel will do 186mph in 5th at 7200rpm limiter. Auto will do 201mph at 7200rpm rev limit with standard wheels/tyres:)

What do you think of Magnetech? I use 10w40 but change it between 1 and 2 thousand miles, because I change it early should it be up to the job? 15.5psi.

Im my humble opinion it looks dreadfull, the standard lights are one of the best features on the z looks. Only my opinion. :)

I agree, a lot of the guys in Halfords are complete drongos, I asked for a 1/4" T peice and the guy didn't know what one is so had to explain what it was!

Very nice car. What is the little box next to the steering wheel column?

I have had this myself on rare occasions only happens when it has been raining, so getting water on the air mass sensor, fairly easy to swap over to test if you have an aftermarket cone air filter.

Do you think if we ask nicley he will bring it over here to TOTB? Should show up a few Skylines and Supra's:)

Those pictures are so funny, what an insult to Ferrari's!

MR2 :rofl: leave them to the max power boys:)

LOL, good point! Also does the Skyline hold the speed record of 260.8mph? I think not, leave that to the Z :) :slap:

:rofl:

Any decent car will have at least 6 pistons:)

Very nice pictures. I like the first one best, your Z looks awesome under that cliff!

I'm a plank am I? Well you sound like the typical Skyline driver. The Skyline I killed, try to move into my lane to stop me overtaking him. What a sore looser, skyline owners just can't take defeat! Me on the the other hand, I will acknowledge it if I get blown away, which has never happened yet :)

Well, they can't be that for ahead of z because I have killed 2 skylines in my short time as a z owner, way before this thread was started http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=23740 and don't say they were a GTS or GTT ! :)

It's the climate control temperature sensor.

Getting back to the original "Why do Skylines out perfom the Z32?" Well the answer is, they do and they don't. Anyone with enough TIME and MONEY can modify their car to what ever power they want, and that's what it boils down to really, TIME and MONEY.

I agree with you billynomates, I can't understand the people who think the car is crap, hang around to see what z owners have to say. I have to defend the Z.

This is so confusing :confused:
