That gives me a bit more confidence - Really like the smooth finish at the back I have been toying with the idea of removing the standard spoiler, less downforce = more top speed Hmmmm Will have to be pencilled in the bottom of the list of mods, but with the $ being so low the body kits from USA are a steal at the mo.

OK cherry Red Pearl it is then. :nelson: nice to know that it is going to be a real pain in the arse to find the right colour to get those couple of paint chips repaired then...... Ivan Jap SWB TT Manual slick top in the colour described above :rolleyes:

Dave I would not describe the colour as Cherry Red, maybe a black cherry...... But I can see that you are sure there that the red paint is lighter and therefore faster ........ Ivan Still working on the photos I have some on the PC but can't get them into a message

I have had a couple of imported scooby's already but they were both tuned up and needed octane booster. Will stick to the expensive stuff then. Ta

Cheers Guys I looked long and hard and finally found a low milleage SWB TT manual. Had to comprimise on the colour (wanted black got a wine red metallic ish) and no targa top, but glass is heavier than steel! All standard apart from the back boxes which have been replaced with 4 1/2" pipes each side (not too happy with 'em but they are growing on me) Very happy with the way it sticks to the road and unsticks too, not so happy with fuel economy - OK on a long run but around town I have to plan the journey via the shell garages!!! Which leads to a question - what is the best fuel? I have used optimax and esso super but would appreciate the experiences from you lot. Cheers Ivan Working on some photos

Hi Guys Had my Z for week and a half now - and I am wondering why I didn't get one years ago when I first wanted one!!!! What a fun car. I got may hands on a red Jap TT manual SWB with a tin top. I am looking for good sources of info on the car - I see you peope are all really helpfull and it looks like a good forum. Will be looking to do some mods over the coming months - Brakes first - cars in Japan don't do 160mph do they? Anyone know of specialists close to Bristol area? Usually I have most of my tuning work done by a Paul at Castle Coombe Motors :bow: (next to the racetrack, which is where the car is going to end up being used on the weekend). Just to say Hello to all too, another Zedhead converted! Ivan
