Lots of info, especially in the article that is mentioned in all 3 links: http://www.300zxclub.com/showthread.php?t=57575&highlight=toulene http://www.300zxclub.com/showthread.php?t=38466&highlight=toluene http://www.300zxclub.com/showthread.php?t=22709&highlight=toulene

ok now im confused :confused: i thought the VR6 was in the mk3 golf and the mk4 was V5, i have no 'real' knowledge of golfs, just going by what i have seen on the back of the cars. Never seen a mk4 VR6. EDIT: just seen that datasheet, it was definately badged a 4Motion so i must have misread the V6 before it as V5, sorry :nelson:

so why is everyone getting their knickers in a twist? if it doesnt concern them it shouldnt bother them, why make a big deal out of it? there was no need to start this thread was there? let the people who do have an issue sort it out themselves whether it happens behind the scenes or not is their problem. there is no need for everyone else to jump in with their opinions after hearing half a story. oh and nice one Paul, about time it got locked.

Vinny, bud your concentrating too much on the 'forum full of crap issue', trust me, as is the case almost every single time something happens on here, there is so much we don't know that has happened behind the scenes.

That's true Steve BUT the golf was up the 350s backside for a good time before the 350 pulled in to let him pass so they would have been rolling next to eachother at about the same speed, golf maybe slightly faster.

Everyone is making such a big deal out of the 'this forum is full of crap' and 'too much shit being posted' issue. I haven’t even spoken to John about this and I can guarantee that is just a very small part of his reasons for leaving. I have not been here since the beginning but I have been here long enough to know and experience the lies, bullshitting, backstabbing, rumour spreading and character assassination that goes on behind the scenes. We already lost the huge Z32 knowledge of Andy Duff (I don’t care if he is good at reading or an IT bod turned wannabe zed mechanic, the bottom line is he really knew his stuff), and I’m sure some people will disagree with me but I found his input immensely valuable and he was always willing to help me out. Whether you like to admit it or not losing John's input will have negative affect on the club. Just look at how difficult it is to get a help and advice question answered fully nowadays. There are of course still some very knowledgeable guys on here Paul C, Kirbz, Eric Lymon etc but you could count the number of people who have that real depth on one hand! No wonder there aren’t as many big powered zeds as there are Supras, GTOs and the like. Look at other free forums like tt.net, 3CL and aus300zx and the huge database of tech information on there and compare it to our ‘FAQ’ area, it’s a joke. The technical area on the aussie forum is one of the best I have seen on any car forum. I hardly even bother posting a help thread unless I cant get hold of one of the tech guys on the phone because I know it will take days to get answered if answered at all and even then it will be answered by the guy I can phone. No one really gives a shit about the ‘crap’ threads that get posted, post all you want, but when 300zx.co.uk which is supposed to be a car club gets 1000 replies to ‘crap’ threads to every 1 reply to a help and advice thread I think there are genuine grounds for concern.

This here says the V5 4Motion has 204bhp: http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/road_tests/?id=13 They didnt race from a standstill, it was more like 50 to over 100 (my speedo doesnt work so i cant confirm lol)

Not the racecourse roundabout dave, that's where i tried to start a bit of a race (from 0-40mph only, obviously!). It's the next roundabout after asda going away from town, must be the great glen one (i dont know what its called) Don't usually drive down those ends myself but couldnt resist trying to get the 350Z to have a go. The coppers where just sitting there in the layby (what would be the 3rd exit) with their lights off waiting, its pretty dark in that layby too!

Was on my way home tonight and a 350Z was following me for a bit, got to a double lane road with him next to me and tried baiting him but he wouldnt bite (must have seen THAT episode of Top Gear). So just driving along and ended up behind him cos there was a van parked in the middle of my lane unloading things. I'm casually following the 350 (me on the inside lane, him on the outside) and a Golf V5 4Motion blasts past me and is driving up the arse of the 350. 350 pulls in and as the golf begins to pass the 350 driver guns it (how do i know? cos i saw him lose traction as the back end twitched). Still following them both i boot it to watch what happens and the Golf pulled a few car lengths on the 350 over about 1/3 of a mile and then we came to a roundabout. Is the 350 driver just crap or are the Golfs really that quick? Bloody good thing we all slowed down alot at the roundabout, there was cop car parked up just waiting for someone to blast past. For all the Leicester guys this is the first roundabout you get to after Asda on London Road (driving away from city centre).

group buy on an asassin anyone? :dance:

2 of the best tech advisors on here now gone :( who's next? sorry to see this john, you will no doubt hear from me when i'm in trouble lol

what about that toulene stuff I've read about? supposed to be awesome

nice one dave, looks lovely even with that front bumper :nelson: :tongue: il have to look out for you in the next week or two as you inevitably take it out for no reason whatsoever :D

decat decat!

No link david but got a few more pics:

thats a very interesting question, i'd love to have a go at one with my suspension setup, anyone got an M3? :D
