Well done Ed, nice to see at least one of us still flying the Zed flag up at crail, when are you next going up? i fancy trying the new car out. Paul.

Just noticed this Leslie, tell Colin i'm asking for him(we were at the crail trackday together both with the red zeds) hope hes well again soon. Paul.

i was thinking of heading up,is it just a crail thrash or a show? Paul.

I just bought a 98 4.2 and have to say i dont think i'll ever stop laughing(until it breaks,lol) although to be fair i think its more the drivers that break them,they need heated up properly and the water oil checked often etc unlike the zed which is pretty much just driven. the early 4.2's suffered from a crank problem but as long as you go for a 97- then you should be ok,performance in a straight line is awsome but when you come to the twisties nothing is keeping up,mine weighed in at 1060kg's and with the AP racing brakes all round it stops and turns like nothing else i've driven. hope this helps Paul.

Hi there, i dont have the model codes handy but you cannot import a 2000 model due to there not being a model report on the 300zx,only upto a 97 can be brought in right now, hope this helps Paul.

not so sure Marc will be happy to see another 300 though ;) Paul.

very nice :cool: Paul.

would datascan show up anything if i was to plug it in and take it for a drive then send someone the info? thanks again Paul.

yeah,maybe a bit far ;) thanks for the offer but if nobody local has one i will buy one so that theres one for us local guys :) Paul.

as above,i will come to you if its easier, thanks in advance Paul.

thanks guys,i'll have a check in the morning,hopefully get it sorted :) Paul.

Hi Guys, my car has decided to sometimes not rev above 5k,sometimes its frine(usually when your trying to show people the fault),i've checked the plugs and they seem ok,tonight i got a loan of a working PTU but still no difference, its like i'm hitting the rev limiter,i thought at first it may be boost related but no matter if i'm at 1bar or 1.5bar as soon as it hits 5k it splutters, i've never had it out in the wet but i have another AFM to try incase,any other ideas? rather dangerous when you pull out to overtake and it does it. thanks in advance Paul.

nobody is saying auto's are shite(they are shite though :tongue: ) i just think its like going along to a bike trackday,all the bikers are there with there fast bikes and you pull up with stabilisers on your bike ;) :rofl: Paul.

didnt realise you were an expert mr bunny ;) once you have been up a 1/4 a few times trust me you will realise its the car doing the racing,your just along for the ride :tongue: Paul.

agreed,i always remember some sig on another forum saying "drag racing in an auto is like competing in the special olympics,even if you win your still a retard" :rofl: Paul.

same guy as this one :rofl: http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=85854&page=1&pp=15&highlight=ascot Paul.

mine should be run in anger on the 28th at crail for banzai,i'll post up what i get,although my car is deffo more track than drag ;) Paul.

the Pentroof one is fast ;) Paul.

looks lovely Bud :bow: love those wheels too. Paul.

well said Jason, i think alot of people are buying them without doing any research too,they find out their 2k car needs a set of tubs at 1k+ and panic thus also giving the car a bad name for being unreliable, personally i cant wait till these dogs on ebay are broken beyond repair and only the good ones remain. Paul.

sorry not keen either,would look great on the cover of max power though ;) Paul.

theres more english registered users than scots :smash: ;) Paul.

i'm in burntisland around 6pm if anywhere near there is any good? Paul.

Thanks Ed,how far over the bridge are you by the way? i'm heading your side of the bridge tomorrow evening if your about? thanks again Paul.

as above,i need to download the map from my ecu, thanks in advance Paul.
