No I seriously doubt that they would leave out teh main car. Although, perhaps because it is such a praised car in this game, you have to win a lot of races before it becomes available to drive?... And yes, it is a game for the PS2. I am led to believe it is ALREADY released in Japan. All over the site it says "March 2002" and there is even FAQ which directly addresses problems that may be encountered in the game.

mmmm go to that site, and click on the link to the left of "FAQ". It shows a whole bunch of cars..... but no Z! Wahhhh! There will be about 20 cars to choose from - naturally they're all Japanese cars... apart from a RUF - "black bird" they call it. Also, AV's babelfish translated the silvia as "sill beer" hahahha Asukura is one of the main characters and he drives teh "Z of demon" (or perhaps a better translation could be "Demon Z"). "You say the owner causes accident one after another, the car which is called " the Z of demon ", is obtained accidentally. Of it is visited in the accident, whether many times, but it rides and handles " the Z of demon ". " Z of demon " (NISSAN fair ready Z )" great traslation huh ! Also one of the "rival characters" drives a Z31 !!! There are 5 game modes: 1) Arcade scenario mode 2) Mission mode 3) Time attack mode 4) Ic.link battle mode 5) Replay theater Some more IN-GAME movies are available here: http://world.altavista.com/sites/auen/pos/babelfish/urltrurl?lp=ja_en&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hitpops.jp%2Fga-cha%2Fnews%2F2002-03%2F04_04%2Findex.html I shan't download them however because I'm over my download limit for this month

No it probably wont be better than GT3... but GT3 didn't have our favourite Z in it ! GT2 has a 432 Fairlady though doesn't it?

HOLY S**T I AM GETTING IT!

I think it's an intro for one of those Japanese Anime cartoons... There is one (could be the same one, but I forgot its name) which is all about: cars, guns and women. Nothing else... hehe It has Vipers, Mustangs and (perhaps?) some rice burners too? Whatever it is, they sure like the Z and that cant be a bad thing!

hot diggity !

In other words, you want lots of money

atm here they're cheap and rare :-/

Nice site! Hey also guess what, if you stick some 50" wheels on a Z, in 5th gear it'll go 414mph!!! hehehe

Tow truck drivers in general are evil, evil people. They wait at "danger" zones waiting for accidents to happen, and race each other to accidents trying to get there first. I've seen tow trucks run red lights many times... Also, I know of someone whos 2 month old Boxster blew up one night. Who was behind him? A tow truck. He was following because "there were sparks coming from under your car". Thats really low. I feel sorry for you man, but just at least you're ok, and all in all thats what REALLY counts...

My father had this thing called a rust preventer on his 1984 Alfa Spider and it worked ..... but he also took very good care of the car so who knows if it actually did anything? My question is, do these things actually work, or is it a bit of a sham? The fact that in the last 5 years they've increased in price by about 500% makes me think that they do work. IF they do work, I will certainly buy one for my Z (some surface rust is evident) Perhaps some of you have had some first hand experience?

yeah its a diablo with 15" wheels hahaha

thanks a LOT for that help - now I actually know something about the gearboxes available to me

Lovely... there's something about a Z and a Skyline engine which yuou just gotta love...

It's only a zx...

This email was forwarded to me a couple of days ago and thought some of you may be interested - esp. those of you who are in WA and cannot seem to find a decent Z to buy... > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: Stephen P.

There are plenty around if you just wait... But in Perth...... well............... yeah you really do need to move mate

I bought mine from the side of the road in Morpeth hahaha

lmao now thats just silly

They're called "magnum" and were on the car when I got it...

Finally, I have some pictures scanned in... They're up on the Car Galleries, so click http://www.240z.org/photopost/index.php?cat=500&user=1243&thumb=1 if you want to see them... It's a 1971 240Z manual silver HS30001031, and she's adorable

Well, my synchro in 2nd... the Z workshop in brisbane has quoted $240 for a single synchromesh :-/ Will a 5 speed from a 240K fit into the Z? What are my options?
