Javelin

well i was talking about the 2.0 old shape so 2000-07 i think!

Z all the wayy!, ill take my mate to a track day and see how we do :)

haha love this, what an insight this was :D

Agreed, Zed for sure is the cooler car, they look sexy and sleek and no argument there. However being at my age i might be getting into a few races and wanted to hear some opinions. But hands down for the honda's as they seem pretty nippy. Really they should be no comparison between a twin turbo 3 liter and a 2.0 car. Weight wise honda is 1225 kg and z looks like its around 1373 kg. So not a lot of difference either. civic type R vs nissan 300zx twin turbo jdm Check that out, nevertheless Z all the WAY!!!

Haha that is funny :P, well done Matt! Well have to say his z does looks very mean though!! :D P.S Cheers for the favour again! ;)

that kindda cleared it up for me :) Cheers! Well he has does remap, full exhaust and intake and i think he has done a dyno too! Only thing abt the 300zx is the petrol it uses is madness, were the type are uses half of it. @Mid-wales-zx I know i have the i vtec on my accord type s and i love it :).

But then again most races are from stand still to about 70-80 :P, or the next red light lool :w00t:

hmm thats really interesting, vodka how much bhp are you pushing??

Hey Guys, I am curious if there was a race between the two who would win. My mates for a type r and i have seen him beat m3's. So i wondering if anyones had any experience or thoughts??? He always keeps telling me that he would win, he pushing about 240 with some basic mods. :donatello:

Hey the zed does look very nice indeed,stunning example. Is it up anywhere for sale? I would be interested :)

Yeah i cant beileve it, it for sure one in a million chance. :D

------------------------------------------------------ Car has been recovered :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D Guess what! Just got a call from the police and they found my CAR!!!! ITS A MIRACLE!! It was found on rivenhall Gardens near Epping forest E18 area in a car park next to a house o.O, i am very surprised at how the police did nothing watsoever to secure the car, they just rang me to tell where it was and left it there!!. Unfortunately when i went to pick it up i can see some serious bumper and side wing damage as whoever took it for a joy ride was a new driver. Random but there was a fire extinguisher and a 1.8 carat diamond holder stating a price of £2150, *******s also sprayed the car full of the powder from the extinguisher too :S. Really pissed of with the damage but the garage who lost it has agreed to repair and do all work for free. So right now i am thinking abot how to proceed. I am amazed that the police even found the car so deep in a block of houses/flats, i think someone might have reported the car. Also 20% of the other cars i saw had broken glasses no surprise there at all. Seems they only drove just under 30 miles till the petrol was about to finish and they couldn't probably afford to put more in. Also the passenger side window was pushed down and then they broke the key insert, so had to start it with a screw driver myself!! BiG thanks to all your support and advice!!!! Lov you all!! :P So if anyone has a front bumper do let me know, was smiling from ear to ear driving it back home :D Happy days ahead!! Hopefully

Yeah sorry typo, meant Forest Gate! Why do you know any people that can help!?

Well i have reported it to the police and got crime refrence but right not thinking about the best way to get my money back!!! What would trading standard do exactly??

Hey Kash thanks for that, its on 429 Avenue Rd, Forest Gate. The guy running is called John and its called Autos something. if you can keep an eye and ear out for me mate!

Thanks a lot for the info mate, i am going to pm you to find out some more information!! @Vijay thanks again!

Agreed Police dont do jack! So no luck with them, i need to find a solicitor and ask for some advice as i am not sure were to start. Never been in this type of a situation myself. @Gary police are useless, they just add it to the system and thats it. @Vijay small courts only deal with values up to £750, ok ill give consumer direct a ring and see what they say too. @Richard thanks for the encouragement, i am not going to give up till i get my money back. Not even sure how you sue someone!!! I will call my insurerance company up and have a word with them, see if they can follow a case up for me. Do we have any member who is a lawyer or anything? would be nice to get some advice from the legal side of things! Guys once again huge thanks for the advice!! its really helped me a lot! I am not going to give up till i get some justice! Not gonna take any shit anymore!!!

Right well went in again and had a word with the culprit. He doesn't have any insurance whatsoever and he is completely broke. He claims that he has bailiffs knocking on the door for his garage rent etc. So here are the options I have but they don't give me much hope :( - So I could report him to fare trade for working without the right type of insurance etc and they would close him down for good, but once again i gain nothing from it at all. - I could take him to court but the court cost would be much more than the value of the car itself. Even if i win due to his low income he would probably pay in instalments. - I could claim on the insurance, however not sure how much they would give for the car as they work the value of the car themselves right? So let's say they give me 1500, my premium is 1600 itself and they would keep that if I claim. So once again is there any point?? On top would have to pay an excess too. So personally i am starting to get the feeling that this is a lost case. Ahh I am well annoyed by this whole situation, just pisses me off that someone is out there messing with my hard earned money and enjoying MY CAR!!!:gun_bandana: Now i bet most people think why did i go there, only reason i went to him was due to being really cheap and all my friends go there for the body work and he does good work. So I really doubt he had personally anything to do with this matter. Nevertheless feeling rather frustrated as i type this up!! So far i have agreed to give the guy a bit of time and see if he can come up with the resources to pay for the car. So i am hoping either the police find the car or he gets some good buisness and gets enough to pay me back. I am starting to HATE East London!!! Thank You for your support and words of advice they are much appreciated!!!

Yea CAB is the only place i think, so need to ring them up! :( cant stop being so frustrated and pissed off argghhh!!!!!

Yes my zed is black and its not on ebay. Well i asked him and he is refusing to pay, keeps saying it isint his fault, i get a feeling he doesnt even have traders insurance or something. So i need to seek some legal advice now, well pissed of with the whole situation. Yeah i am going to call the CAB and ask whats the best way to take it forward! He had the keys when i went to see him this morning, so i got the keys off him as well. I doubt it was a inside job as a lot of my friends go to him to get work done too, but nevertheless he still should pay out for it. Anyone here who is a solicitor, need opinions from a legal point of view??

Hopefully -------------------------------------- Hey Guys, I need some advice, i gave my car is for some work to a mechanic yesterday. He rang me up today saying that he parked the car on the road and that its gone!!!!:cursing: Firstly i was pissed of that he would park my car on the road cause he didnt have enough space in his garage and worst of all he is trying to say that he is not liable. When clearly the car was left in his care and is his responsibilty to keep it safe. :mad: What do you guys reckon my options are and is it worth taking it legally?? GUTTED!!! Please keep an eye out for me!!

let me rephrase my question, would 8.5 take 265 tires? :)

sorry for butting in but would the 5x114.3 take 265 tires?

You got new suspension or still using the stock ones?

Hey Guys, Currently not sure if its my zed or not however when i go for a ride, its a very bumpy and uncomfortable ride (feels like thrown around in a cage:sweatdrop:). So maybe it might be my suspension etc as i think i still have the stock suspension. So wanted to ask you guys out there how would you rate the zed for comfort. So what would you rate ur zedout of 10 so 10 being really comfortable and 1 being horrid. Would be nice to hear some opinions on people who have been in other sports car such as m3's or similiar low cars to see how the zed compares. I been in a Lambo lp630 and that was very comfortable but not we cant compare that can we :P :wheelchair:
