Don't worry, she was cool about it all and more importtantly  she wants/ed to learn.  thats the best thing.  good luck car shopping.

another Quick note..  the 2003 CL will come in a 6-speed.  My roommate just bought an Acura, and the guy he dealt with (very cool guy) said that his boss showed him the invoice for the 2003 models they were purchasing, and said they had 2-3 with 6-speeds in them.

Sounds like a Hella lotta fun.  260 hp I-VTEC with a 6-speed.. OHH YEAH.

on another note..  the Bas model 350Z will have 280-300 hp, and be RWD and only cost just under 27,000 including tax! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Thank you for all the help you guys I really appreciate it ...  Learned quite a bit for one night =)

01-11-2002, 10:18 PM

I used to have a 90 NAZ (3L V6) and I don't know what you guys are all talking about it being a pain to maintain.  It was the best hassle free car i ever had...including a few Hondas I've owned.  The only reason why I drive a 240SX now is because I need back seats and the 2+2 Z looks weird IMHO.  BTW all the Zs have a version of VTEC, they all have variable valve timing....years before VTEC might I ad.

Luv, if you're serious about a Z, you'd best go to www.twinturbo.net  Thats my usual hangout and they absolutely can answer all of your questions.

Cheers

NOSfEDs12vh45dett · 01-12-2002, 03:53 AM

the Z32 is a great performer, get the 2+2(long wheelbase), and TT with Targa tops, my friend had one 650 HP+, make sure that you have more downforce than standard if you go for the TT, or else drive it slow(120 mph),  one last thing 17" - 18" by 8" -10", with soft rubber, and you will go places faaaaast.

Ok ok I said 'one final thing' so here's another, Feul economy, now try the Silvia is as quick as the 300zx, if not slightly quicker of the mark, but top end speed will normally go to the 300zx, 240sx if there like 200sx are awesome to drive, try Drifting, it works for me.

Im sorry, but this wins my award for most idiotic post of the year.

1st: your friend has a 2+2 NA Z that does 650+? (unless you are non US, that is ridiculous)

2nd: more downforce to go over 120? TTs come with wings that are perfectly enough downforce to do high speeds... Why the #### do you think they put them on there? No big aluminum spoilers please, this isnt f&f.

3rd: Tire size is not going to determine how fast he goes, it is for traction, not HP.

4th: what the #### does fuel economy have to do with your last statement?

5th: I doubt (judging by your ignorantly boastfull nature) that you have ever drifted in your life, unless it was into a curb.

Anyways, I am going for dim sum.

NOSfEDs12vh45dett · 01-13-2002, 12:17 AM

Dude I live in New Zealand and we do drift here, fool.

You didn't read my post did you, My friend got a Twin Turbo(TT) 2+2 300zx, dickhead.

And yes I use to drift my last car, rather expensive hobby I might add.

Tires, My point exactly, if want that horse power then you need the rubber, you can never have enought.

Not all 300zx have spoilers here in the NZ, downforce is still a problem.

And For your final comment, yes I have crashed my 200sx at Pukekohe raceway, on the esses.........naff said, and as for my boastfull nature, only to anoy people like you.
