Any TT to NA owners?
I've never driven a TT, but my LWB NA couldn't nearly keep up with a slicktop TT! It's definitely enough power for fun road use though. Shame to be missing out on HICAS, but since so many don't like it maybe it's not such a big deal.

Not a fan :crying:

Now showing as grade 4 although the sheet hasn't changed.

What did you do to your zed today?
Just pulled it off the marked blog. I think only the red/gold one is NLA though.

Silver or gold?

Depends what exactly you have! I'd be interested in a pair of clear or red ones, including housing, with the bulb socket drilled through. Too messy of a job to try and cut it.

Sounds about right! Are those full side markers or just the lenses?

Yes, it's rated "B" separately.

Looks great, but I doubt most auctions houses would grade it that high considering the change of bumper and headlights, plus it's probably had a respray.

Today's Sports Cars compared to '90's Sports Cars
Yes they all had that, but they didn't really follow it anyway. It was around 280BHP, which is why the JDM Z32TT was stated to be around the figure even though it was more like 300BHP.

Today's Sports Cars compared to '90's Sports Cars
In my opinion the only decent car out there at the moment is the 370Z, and even that is on its way out and doesn't really compare to the Z32. Sure, there's other nice cars like the GTR and NSX but they're not affordable to many people (which is unfortunately true for the 370Z too here, though if I lived elsewhere I might have one). The saddest part is thinking about the future. What the **** is someone like me going to drive in ten years?

Jap rear ends witch one looks best
There's talk of a 1.6L base model so...

I like it but prefer the sharper yellow which came later. Just like with the white.

Excellent Z32 Blog
Thanks again for the information! Are there any particular sources you use for rare parts? I've mostly been viewing Yahoo.

Which ones?

Thanks for all the info - I'm finding it very interesting. There really are some bizarre features on these cars. In particular, do you have any further details on the "Pit Sign" or antibacterial treatments? Also, great work with your cars - they look amazing. I'd love to get some new seats in from Japan too, but the version R ones are very expensive on the rare occasion that they show up.

Fuel Leak
Perhaps this is the issue? Supposedly there's stronger clamps on the later models.

"Show Room Car" for sale
That one's an import - I meant the other red one. Are you thinking of a shortcut to getting back in a Z? :p

"Show Room Car" for sale
Worth every cent though! LWB TT manual yes. There's also a much cheaper Irish/UK one on DoneDeal, which has potential if it's not rusty.

Yes, but that particular feature I mentioned doesn't work with mine, which looks the same although is missing the label. I wonder if there's two types?

This comment on JDM power-folding mirrors doesn't seem to apply to my car. Does anyone else have this feature?

Came across this blog today which belongs to an American member here. It's probably the best Z32 blog I've seen yet. Particularly the model differences and evolution details, which are far more comprehensive than other sources I've seen. The scale of the interesting and useless facts he has is crazy! Particularly on Jap zeds - I learned quite a bit from it about my own car, such as that the "UV Cut" decal on my DS quarter window isn't aftermarket. Just as well I didn't remove it after all. :whistling: Iangreenfield, some bits may also appeal to you as I hadn't known some of the details about the version R.

Hmm, this place looks familiar.....
Congrats, looks like a great find. Green seems very uncommon too. I'm not particularly into it but another member here has a very nice green one.
