Welcome mate : )

He should've been dead a long time ago and even though his death may start other things , it had to be done . IMHO no one can feel sorry for such a disgusting creature like he was , blowing up people for his personal satisfaction and to prove points , what points exactly ? To see people suffering ? I'm sorry but i can only wish one thing for people like him . I honestly hope this is the start of the end for all these bloody terrorist's . And as for some people saying killing one will bring nothing just look at it this way by killing him maybe a thousand or more have been spared near or long future. Of course now there are probably hundreds of people like him after he passed all of his sickening belief onto them but if he was still alive it would just be worse , i hope they catch every single one of them ( impossible but you can always wish ) , if we want a safer world this has to be the way imo .

i've got a lwb and you can't state a car that you can barely fit anything in those 2 rear seats as a estate car imho . both cars are great the only thing that personally i wouldnt buy is a slicktop no matter how much people tend to love them, i personally love the targas and they are one of the parts that make the zed so special imho, i dont like air conditioning and never did so it wouldnt work out for me . both cars are sports cars at the end of the day : ) and many true sports cars have rear seats just look at the skyline for example.

grats mate :D just one problem we're never fully happy with our cars and there will always be one little thing to do :tt2:

even with new discs and pads all around i never liked them :( even refurbed the front ones once and still didn't like them , upgrading the brakes were one of the best mods i done.

happy birthday : )

excellent news mate, your zed is looking really nice , hope you get it 100 percent soon :D im not gonna use the car for 3 months and im already depressed so nevermind 5 years lol :( so hurry up and get it finished mate :D

dont like bm's neither even though they are great cars however stella's bm is my fave model , to me its still the one that has a great look and is quite dif from the rest .

where are you staying? as it's actually flooding there in most places due to so much rain ? lol

cheers mate : )

Looks lovely. seems well taken care of and the price is dead cheap : )

boost controllers with a chipped ecu makes a bigger difference than boost jets. had boost jets for awhile and it was so so .. then fitted an Avc-r and the difference was massive : )

Another small job done Before : After :

aww she's adorable mate :D congrats buddy :D

cheers matey . I've been really busy and time's tight , going to portugal next week to fix my son in law's supra and then off to holidays a bit after . Should be back on the road by end of july or earlier : )

very nice:cool3:

Started the work last week sunday and today half a day job each. i only have the sundays to do zed work as im busy during all the other days. As i mentioned the last owner bought the pistons/rods, i didn't know the make and i can say i was well impressed by them today and they look new, the pistons are CP too :D im glad most parts are off now so i can check the piston size , portwork, polish,3 angle valve job etc with time. the crankshaft also had work done. here are a few pics :

Has anyone got a pic of the stock forged conrod please?

The OP asked what the club reckons is faster car a type r 240 bhp or a 300zx tt , considering the zed has more torque/higher bhp/higher top speed i think the fact is clear that the zed is faster . Now you're going to get high powered cars with lots of money thrown in to them ? U.k is one of the biggest tuning potential countries in Europe if not the biggest , there's really amazing builds here with ££££ engines but with a budget of the same money a zed will always be faster than a type r if the guy knows what he's doing. Not doubting but if you have a proven 500bhp zed than 140 should be EASY to reach and you would clearly know this . And as you doubting what vodkashot's said , so basically a type r is faster than a zed which has more power and a 350 + zed cant keep up with an r8 im talking about the lower bhp version of the r8 . Not trying to sound biased with the zed but the thing is , its like comparing a stock 300 with a stock r34 its a different league to us zedder's but the same goes towards the type r , they are good cars but not as fast as you think they are. I dont get it , you've owned a few zed's and yet you can only critize them.I think you should've bought a type r no offence , the thing is this is a 300zx forum and saying they're slow is a bit silly IMHO.

dont doubt it at all that you took him mate ^^ thats why i found it very strange that he thinks 240 bhp type r and vxr will take on a zed that is in a good condition. yowser is 100 percent spot on there .

yeah the quarter miles arent great from the zed's but if you go look at a 400 to 450 twin turbo supras they are about the same unless its a single turbo . to say that a vxr is faster than a 400bhp zed is just silly imho , you gotta see that the vxr is just light and agressive off the line but it will always lose when it gets to certain speeds . as for the races and drivers, it all depends on how good the road is , weather etc and of course the drivers will always have a say in it , however please dont think theres lewis hamiltons in every corner : ) to say the zed hasnt got speed is just well lol ... very weird thing to say . not because we're all zed owners or most but because the car is agressive and fast in the street , quarter mile times wont always have the final say . look at each others weight ? which one is gonna take off better ? dont forget the zed turbos aswell will only go a bit after and after that its bye type r's.

you surely gotta have an NA to say that 140 isnt that fast to reach ? last year in portugal i was glued at 160 + mph on gps clocking ( private road of course ) to a bmw alpina b7 biturbo and a porsche carrera4s and the word to describe how it got there is only one ' QUICK' , sorry but i gotta agree with the above something must be wrong with your zed if you say up to 140 isnt quick .

dont agree tbh . cant see a type r beating a 300 especially if it has the basic mods and if it does id seriously check if the 300zx was in 100 percent condition.
