I'm pretty thick skinned usually Bri, but TBH, I didn't really want to hear that mate.

I should be in California right now.....then onward to Branson Z fest in Missouri. Cancelled due to personal problems, but still wished I'd gone. Now looking at Z1 Nationals Day in Atlanta. A show I've wanted to go to for a long time now. I dunno, but have a wild idea. Will fly out to Atlanta and take a coach down to Savannah for a few days (one of my favourite places on the east coast), then get the coach back before flying from Atlanta to Memphis to meet up with 3ZC Administrator TnKrsToyco (Steve Fowler) who I know pretty well (had a blast at the MidwestZfest in Oklahoma last year!) before making the 2 day trip by road in Steve's vert to Carrollton (GA) to Z1's place. I dunno. Kind broke at the moment. But the flights are cheap. Having relationship issues again and just fancy doing something for me for once.

:rofl: Looks like it's sat on a load of bricks in that pic! :rofl:

You may as well start again completely with something that doesn't have that kit on it. That is a lot of work to do. Wonder what work has actually happened to it in the 4 years it's been worked on.... :wack:

Sad to see one in that state tbh.

Judging by the photos of it, sorry to say, very little

I spell it Issac. I can't help it if your parents decided to spell it another way! :rofl: :wack:

But this isn't a GT-R website...lol ;)

Get this thread in the correct forum!

I bet this thread is now linked to the Porsche fanbois website now and they are all having a good chuckle!

Looks utterly ridiculous.

You can post up photos anyway! LOL

Very nice. Shame it doesn't have the original Impul front bumper though!

Has he shat on your pillow yet?

I'd say that was a result after 2 years of not being driven!

:rofl: :hurl:

MR2 Turbo? The two cars couldn't be any different. Neither were developed to compete against each other. A 2 seater mid engined 4 cylinder sports car vs a 6 cylinder 4 seater front engined GT?.....or were you referring the RX7 to the MR2...kinda see where you're coming from there (size wise anyway) Supra Vs 300zx Vs GTO (3000GT) has always been the main contenders in the UK market. RX7 is a bit of an odd-ball...a nice one I might add. Shame the w@nkel engine sounds so shite and droany though....just like Honda engines.

I don't believe the car to be underrated, I just think it has an image problem. It's odd as the Z32 on launch was very well rated indeed and wiped the floor clean of the mk3 supra, GTO and was up there with the Porsche 928. Its image has degraded over the years due to the fact that newer cars in the same league from other manufacturers have super seeded it which have been marginally better and have been newer. The Mk4 supra, as ugly as it is was also well rated. These have never really been replaced by anything, neither has the GTO, which, to be honest has a pretty dowdy image too. The Z32 has always seen to be the poorer relation to the Skyline and you will always get asked 'why didn't you just get a Skyline' comments. BUT, most people that bought the Z, didn't want a Skyline to begin with. I could have bought one when looking for mine, it just didn't have what I was looking for in a car. There are also, or rather 'were' huge volumes of tatty, smokey unloved examples which have given the car a rep it shouldn't have deserved bringing the prices of them to rock-bottom. The monkeys then got hold of them, chaving them up with fibreglass clap-trap, shoddy body kits and tasteless accessories driving the image of them through the floor. Older people appreciate this type of car as they know what it is capable of. Younger people 'the fast and furious generation' think of them as just a cheesy luxo barge and don't hold it in high regard. I think their image is on the up. Most of the really poor examples have been scrapped. The car has turned back into an enthusiasts car, its rarity value is getting better and the grey-import market has all but dried up. Most cars that are left tend to be better looked after versions too. That's just how I see it.

Dude its not about no liking what someone else has done. Its a stock car! So your argument holds no value! :p

Targas are one of the design features that stole me away from an 8-series. :) I do really like slicktops though.

Makes me wonder why the hell you bought a z in the first place if it's that bad? LOL crackpot or what! :rofl:

Why? Wouldn't be able to enjoy nice summer motoring to the same level.

Who said he forgot? LOL

AND AGAIN....another friend request from him! LOL, he has new photos (check them out, amazing!)!....and 1,000 more friends! :rofl:
