3000 overtakes the 300zx at 5mins :) haha
Did the 300 run out of fuel?

what engine would you choose and why?
Has anyone done a vk there a fat old block.

I don't have any issue doing an engine as long as it's got the better. Swapping an engine for another simply to have a different engine that's the same power output or sometimes less powerful is a dumb move imo. There's a chap in the states with an SR20det in his z32....:s You can drop a less than a grand into a good vg and make over 400hp solidly. If you've gotca crate ls motor making 500hp na and a blown vg crack on, but if you've got a healthy one the money spent going ls could potentially be far better spent.

The 3.4l 24v cosworth GAA?

Theres a reason it's included in the 60k kit :)

Can you do that on stock pistons and rods? Equally what sort of cash is involved? Sounds like a big expense to get what you'd get from a simple remap on a vg. If you want to be different the vh is the one honestly.

Sc?

Your very limited to what you can do though arnt you unless you turbo it. At which point not only is it going to start getting expensive it's also just as messy as the vg that was designed to fit in there. The vh is more powerful in stock na format and I'm fairly sure turbo able without a costly rebuild.

Hello
Oh it's that one I spoke to the owner a few times over djcc but he never seemed to use it. Cba with that lot though tbh.

Don't fit an rb it's a bloody fashion statement. Nissan could have used a straight six hell the original fair ladies had them. They chose not to due to the block height would have ruined the lines and affected the weight distribution, the vg keeps that weight inboard and low down. Due to its v configuration. Your costings of purchasing sorting and then fitting new tubs/tub will leave will you out of pocket. Be cheaper to build a vg30dett and some new tubs. You would probably end up with a more powerful engine. RB is for scene kids. The logical choice is therefore a v. The vh45 suits the car better with its high revving block. There's something that doesn't seem right about a long stroking yank v8 in a sleek jap car, that's coming from a v8 lover. I'm guessing the r35 engine will be cash heavy seriously cash heavy. And the 350 engine is just a more modern vg if it wasn't for emissions the 350 would have a vg. Pretty sure some of the racing r35s have the vh45 in them, follow thier example :)

gathering in their masses...
One band I would have lived to see in their day, I've seen a few bands like this ie not in ther original format and it's never the same :( of my two favourite bands I've seen one and a half of them. Unfortunately the half of a band I've seen I will never get the opportunity to see in full, as the guitarist was shot dead live on stage 10 years ago. And the missing member I've not seen who is still alive but incidentally also died for a period from a heroin overdose, as far as I'm aware had retired from the public eye.

300ZX Pricing - look at Zs - maybe? Hopefully?
300zx 0-50 in 6.2? What with the starion being towed behind? I think those but be the mk1 rx7 and z31 it's being compared against lol.

Godspeed stuff
The yanks have had more time etc with Godspeed. The general consensus seems to be there intercooler a are better than stock but not as good as say the z1 ones. (As a side note they look so simular to the japspeed ones) the turbos have an alarming fail rate, failing seals after a few k sorta problems. There suspension stuff is on a par with other Chinese produced stuff. If we could buy direct rather than import via the states it would be more worth it.

Agree the mk4 looks likes a celica not special. The mk3 was obviously something fun.

18 months ago you could pick up a z32 twin turbo with tax and not maybe even a manual for less than a grand, it was probably scabby but it was functional and legal. Have a trawl through now.... This is the important part, these dogs need to die out or get restored, I think were starting to see the effects of these back street breakers give it another 12 months and let's see where we are. I'd be watching 350z prices though and pleased, there falling like stones.

What rear spoiler is this?
As a side note those wheels are off an r33 gtr and look awesome.

Lol yeah it changes date each year though doesn't it.

Hi, new to the 300 scene
Well the z32 has a proper piston engine for starters. I Spose really you have to drive one to know if it's for you. Heavier than the Rex obv. There are plenty of horror stories but also plenty of dogs, buy a good one and you won't regret it.
