I have been using Castrol RS 10w-60 for the past few years (think it's now called Castrol Edge) and haven't had problems. Having said that, I do think sometimes it does sound tappety.

Happy Birthday Daz! have a good day mate :duffer::duffer:

Happy Birthday mate hope you have a good one :duffer::duffer:

Sounds like that fookin Mark Turner is copying my install design.....the bast*^d :slap: Be careful when you go to pick it up. Makes sure he has installed the front door speakers properly. Asked him to fit my first Focal speakers in my zed and he made a right pigs ear. I paid him to mount the speakers on MDF and didn't find out until I got my interior retrimmed that he didn't bother doing it. Went straight back for a refund and a flee in his fookin ear. The lad who did my install used to work for Mark a few years ago.

Happy Birthday young Vincent! :D Have a good day matey, see you in the summer bud :duffer::duffer::duffer:

IMO it's the best looking zed yet bar none. I look the resemblance to the 240Z

Happy Birthday bud! Have a good day :duffer::duffer:

You get what you pay for matey :D They are superb speakers, virtually unbreakable.

Focal K2 Power 165cm components are superb Si http://www.sextonsdirect.co.uk/focal/focal/p~165K2P.html?cat=0 Have a look at the link, as you can get cheaper Focal 165cm components.

Si, You'll need to be careful with a sub box that large, as you'll not be able to draw your tailgate blind. That was the issue I had when I first installed a box in the tailgate. I ended up with a custom built sub area, to enable me to still close the blind. I have my front door speaker crossovers inside the door panels, they fit no problem. Not sure if you can see from any of my rides photos, but I have fitted my tweeters directly opposite to the the door mirrors. I know you don't like stick on parts but they don't look too offensive. You can always get them flushed in to the top of the door pad (IIRC Apache has his flushed into his door cards). As for front door amp; It really depends what your budget is TBH mate. The speakers will be a million times better with separate amplification. The head unit is rated as 4 x 50watts but you'll not be getting any where near that. They are always war over rated. Have you already bought your rear speakers? If you haven't, you'd be better off not fitting rear speakers and using the money to get the best upgrade you can for the front. When using components in the front and a sub in the back, you don't really need rear speakers. I would also recommend you visit a good local in car hi-fi specialist. You don't have to commit to buying from them but they can give you a lot of technical knowledge and advice. They will definitely tell you to bin the rear speakers.

Hello and welcome to the club! :D

Hello and welcome to the club! :)

Sounds like a very rare untouched and unmolested UK manual with very low mileage....and one owner...how many of those do you find these days. If it's as good as he states, it's well worth it.

Make me an offer bud :D

That's exactly what I was thinking....£10K for a 1995 GTR I wouldn't swap my 1996 Zed for that, no way. This is what I can't understand. How come they expect that for a fast saloon car (coz at the end of the day, that's all it is), against a beautiful Zed. :confused::confused::confused:

Lovely example there Craig :bow::bow: Good to know that there still are good clean examples to be had.

Happy Birthday! :duffer::duffer:

That's shite Vini. :mac1::mac1: Pleased they didn't manage to get it away. Try JeffTT, he may be able to help you with the ignition barrel and handle. He's now one of our second hand parts traders. Good luck bud!

Well done mate!!

Very good Athene :D:D:D

Yet another Z32 bites the dust :(:( Glad all are OK though bud.

Into my 5th year of ownership now and no plans to sell it. Must admit, I did think about it last summer but decided it wasn't worth trying to sell. Similar reasons as the guy in the first post really. It's paid for and eating no meat, as they say. I know I would have regretted it as well. Have come to the conclusion that it will be in my garage for it's lifetime, however long that may be. In other words, I will the last owner of my zed.......famous last words :D TBH most people on here say they wouldn't sell their zed but I reckon a large proportion of those owners are kinda stuck between a rock and a hard place. They know how much Z32's are worth these days and balancing that against the time and expense they've put into theirs, they just can't justify selling it.
