Right,
As some of you would have probably seen my for sale thread recently for my Clio 172 Cup. It sold within 3 days of advertising it to Rob aka "FlamingMonkey" off here. I beleive he's chuffed with it.
To be honest i've really missed the turbo power and torque in my S14a...
So along with me trying to save money to move out (which isn't going to well lol
) i've bought another turbo car but this one is a bit special imo. It may not be to some peoples tastes!!!
Nissan 300zx JAP IMPORT - 3.0 v6 twin turbo manual short wheel base slicktop.
Manual 5 speed
45,000 miles (reads around 77k kilometres iirc)
Red.
Air con
Very rare swb hardtop
2 seater
Bilstein lowered suspension
Blitz ecu
nismo two piece alloys
Adjustable lower tension rods
Goodyear eagle F1 tyres (all brand new)
New cambelt/drivebelts/aux belts and service
Veilside 320kmh speedometer (this i'll be eventually changing for mph)
Kakimoto cat-back twin system
SPL type adjustable upper camber arms
Remote oil filter kit
10 months mot
6 months tax
1 years warranty
I can only describe it as absolutely immaculate inside and out. The bodywork is in stunning condition for its age and the interior is spotless.
The garage im buying it from is just down the road from Zedworld a big zed specialist and they sent it to them to do a det test and hook it up to their computer to make sure its running sweet. I've rang zedworld up seperately (without the garage im buying it from knowing) and asked them if its all in A1 condition and they said its running mint and id got a wicked car. Apparently they had to adjust one of the throttles as one was opening at a slightly different time to the other but its running perfectly now. He said it's making a bit more power than standard because of the basic mods but if I wanted to see a bigger increase then i'd have to fit an electronic boost controller like what I had on my S14a.
I will be picking the car up tomorrow.
Theres a couple of niggles i found with it but its a 1992 car so can be expected. But all of these niggles are being sorted out. Rear wheel bearing, noisy pulley tightened up (done).
Its pretty rare, swb, hardtop means it handles better and weighs less than the 2+2's TT you usually see.
And the best thing is... i'm insured with a company called MCE and ive been ringing around LOADS of companys for insurance who want around £1500 TPFT on a jap import. I'm 22 with 1 years no claims!
MCE have done me the car fully comp for £1100 (£350 excess) which was the same as my clio cup. I'm speechless on that side of things, incredible deal.
