Question of the Day (Manual or Auto)...
Manual gearshift sounds far better IMHO. Hearing a Z pull away and hear it actually going through the gears sounds a lot nicer than the variomatic sound that kind of exudes from the exhaust in auto format.

Exterior Trims
Courtesy Nissan for slicktop mouldings.

Chrome window trims
Just let yours weather. It's not a desirable look, but if you want chrome window strips, just take the black off. Gives the car a very very dated look.

Question of the Day (Manual or Auto)...
Manual 100%. I don't dislike autos, I quite like driving them as they are effortless, but in something like a Z32TT, manual is my only choice. If I had an N/A as a DD or something, then maybe I'd go for an auto.

Manuals are shit
Suprised Macca hasn't fitted a modified RB26DETT gearbox.

Manuals are shit
Ditch the dump valves and stop moaning about them! They don't do anything anyway. LOL Early manual boxes are crap and are as poor as autoboxes. A good second gen manual box is far superior. Redesigned syncros, gears and tougher bearings. Gear selection is slick and precise. Have you replaced the gear selector bushes and put some better/replacement gear oil in? Standard clutches are crap, but so are standard autoboxes. Autos are ok and easy to drive, but uninvolving and you have no engine braking with them. Modified Skyline R33GT-R gearbox or second gen Z32 manual box is the way to go.

Someone has to! LOL- Happy Birthday Joely P and Peach
Happy Birthday laydeaz!- Skyline engine in a 300zx!!
I've never seen the point of it to be honest, unless you're going for crazy power (which is still achievable with VG), but it is nice. Doesn't sound anywhere near as nice as a VG30DETT though. It's often done in the US as RB engines are very rare and seen as exotic.- LIKING THE VEILSIDE c2 FRONT BUMPER..
He says a lot of things that are far from correct! LOL ;)- K524*** - blue 2+2 TT M5 Eastbound
Filtering the reg number in the text so that spybots don't pick it up. Not as easy for them to do on blurred photo that's an attachment. ;)- LIKING THE VEILSIDE c2 FRONT BUMPER..
Mark's looks nothing like the ABFlug front. I know it's been moddied, but it's barely any different to a stock EC1. :confused:- Miss Z 2006 Pictures
Well, mine let me take a pic at the weekend, so whilst downloading some Z pics, I thought I'd bung up this one of her. :) She likes Zs, so can't be a bad thing. :)- K524*** - blue 2+2 TT M5 Eastbound
Looked nice. Was Eastbound near the M32 junction. For sale signs up.- New suspension installed Att Smithy
Excellent stuff. I have the exact same setup, except I have Tein springs which are lower than the Eibachs which is what looks like you have. Give the car a few weeks for the suspension to settle and you should notice a difference.- the TVR
Good man. I like. The rear lights are from a Cavalier. If they are the early ones, you can replace the lights with Cavalier GSi ones with the tinted indicator. :)- LIKING THE VEILSIDE c2 FRONT BUMPER..
The silver one is Z1motorsport owner's, Russell Floyd. It's a 1000bhp monster. Been around for a few years. Was going to go out to their Z1 fest near Atlanta a few years ago. Had planned on going to the Branson Z fest in Missouri, but I'm just too busy this year. Next year I'll make it to another Z meet in the US.- LIKING THE VEILSIDE c2 FRONT BUMPER..
There ya go then. No need to buy ugly; buy nice. :)- LIKING THE VEILSIDE c2 FRONT BUMPER..
Mark's has been modified lightly iirc. The EC-1 ...which would look far better on yours Sarah than the ugly C1 and C2. I wouldn't go for it, but it doesn't look bad if fitted nicely and as far as aftermarket goes, it's good. You need a big IC to fill up the huge gap though. I won't hide the fact that I really dislike the C1 and C2, but they ALWAYS remind me of something like this whenever I see one.- LIKING THE VEILSIDE c2 FRONT BUMPER..
Mark's isn't a C2. It's an EC-1 which is quite nice. The EC-1 kit looks pretty reasonable for Veilside. - Miss Z 2006 Pictures
