Also,I feel as though this was the true last Z.The friggin 350Z does not feel like a TRUE Z,look at all the Z's before and it just doesnt match up.




I'm so glad someone else feels this way.

A good friend of mine is really into Nissans. He has a 93 300zx 4 seater... z32 I believe? anyways, its been on jack stands for almost two years now cuz it burned oil and he never checked it... there goes the rod... at least it wasn't a twin turbo, but thats what he's looking to put in it now... that is if he ever gets the cheddy

Until then, him and his girlfriend have bought 4 240s between the two of them. Rebuilt one, sold another and are each driving one as I speak... an 86 hatch and a 96 s14 hatch (engine swap). Of course his girlfriend gets the s14; shes so spoiled

They did a test on Top Gear (British auto's show)


The new 350z was absolutely flogged by the 1984 Nissan Fairlady 300ZX (both stock standard)

stick that in your pipe and smoke it

I'd much rather drive the Fairlady anyway.

My buddy and you would get along reaaalllly well... haha

Yea I'm driving a little 99 honda civic ex sedan... its alot of fun to drive even though I haven't played under the hood yet. It's got that little d16y8 v-tech engine in it, but its actually quite impressive.

One day I will have my dream Z, but until then I'm diggin' the mileage this little honda gives me. Pretty damn dependable car too; good ratings all around for the year, until you see that it's near the top of the list of most stolen vehicles...

Not too many people know how to drive stick anymore anyways... and whens the last time you saw a thievin' nig driving a manual transmission anything?

Liquid likes the classical appearance I see... I like em all equally, but if I owned one I think I would leave the exterior and cosmetic details as is and just play around under the hood...

yeah man I dig body kits to a certain degree. Some are just far to outageous.

There is this old XF Ford Falcon (google it LOL) going around Hobart that is just body kitted out to the fucking max, and painted LIME green to boot. it looks ridiculous, but theya re V8 fucking gutted out tanks, raw as guts and will give a lot of modern v8's a run for their money.

My Pulsar was originally bought it was going to be a project car, but then it got damaged in various rally missions thru the bush, so I thought fuck it and just left it alone. It has some pretty heavy cosmetic damage but still gose off its tits.

I was going to lower it a little (bought with mags and all) but thenb i thought that would reduce my ability to flog it up and down rough roads without bottoming out and wrecking my tyes, so it's still all stock except for the mags, exhaust system, re-timed transmission, pod filter, and the cylinders have been bored out.

it's a fuckin beast I love it haha, it doesn't exactly 'turn heads' but it gives a lot of 4 cylinder cars around here a run for their money.

Done right, an SR20-DET will flog the shit out of a Subaru WRX Impreza.

Nissan for the win

Hondas are great as long as you keep in mind they're point a to point b cars, not supercars, and that they've been driven by every highschool kid within a 100 mile radius of the car.

Honda's are great cars. The Accord Euro is a pretty gutsy mobile, and theyre reliable as fuck. Not a really fast car by nature, but the V-TECH system is EXTREMELY reliable and will never let you down.

Silvias dont have the flip ups i believe....same chassis tho.



In that picture it looks nicer than when i 1st got it,The shifter was taller.That shifter is a B&M short throw :evil: plus It had no radio or the bottom pocket...it was totally empty and ugly with wires.



s13 sileighty? Did you put that front end on it? Or did you buy it with that front clip?

Either way, nice one. Clean is best on the Nissans. I see a lot of douches tryin to roll in em like their a goddamn Cadillacs.

I've been workin on swappin motors in my FC, goin from 13b to an Audi MC2! Should be pretty bitchin when It's done. I took some pictures over the weekend, I'll have to put em up.
