thats jason right?! its actually 5 coulours. well its a sweet ride cept that its only running on one turbo at the moment (he's designing a sequentiol (spelling?!) system) and he just had it defected :tapemouth Its an awesome car though, and should be even better when its finished. Tom.

i agree with alpha dog. i believe the aero is a lot better looking, attracts more attention, and is more popular. but more expensive, so theres less of them floating around. i think people probably dotn buy them not because they are not as strong, because when the roofs in they are and there is a lot you can do, and easily, to stiffen the chassis, but rather that rhd aero supra's are only available in auto. whilst some people have done manual conversions (my dad is contemplating this) that only makes them more expensive, and therefore that would be why it seems that people dont want them. Tom. BTW. check out the pics. http://community.webshots.com/user/tommo560

i had the problem on my second computer. it seemed to me that large text and a too small resolution was the problem. so try making you computer resolution 1024*768 instead of 800*600. worked for me. Tom.

NO ONE WANTS THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!! are you seriouse!!!!!!!!!!!???????? my dad has one and the only reason people dont want them is because they are so much more expensive and 18yr old kids cant afford them. no way at all do people not want them. Tom.

I wanna go!!! i have all the goodies (triple weber l28, 4.375 diff, koni struts, king springs, etc..) and i am organising some 14X4 old corolla wheels and tyres but are there any hints and tips you could share as to how to drift succesfully?! i only just got the car, and my license, so i hardly know how to drive, but i have seen drifting and desperatley want to try. Tom.

I have a T-Bar roof ( not a full roof thing, its kinda the size of a sun roof but with 2 sections. probably better for structural integrity) and i think it is great... BUT, as mUm said they do tend to leak, and you cant "close" them to get the sun off you when you dont want it. Tom.

. yeah sounds good. my problem is that its my car and my dads and my dad didnt want me to have to buy a new set of ears cause of driving the thing. But it sounds WAY better with the new mufler in it anyways. the exhaust noise doesnt reverberate and sound like a civic when i boot it. Tom.

na, now thats crap!!. what sort of f*** tard does that?!! it was his own damn fault, and, with any luck, it probably wont go anywhere in court if the truth comes out that he did it himself . Thats like breaking a tow on a table cause you walked into it and sueing the manifacturer cause the edge was hard. Tom.

they are noisy. mine's got a 2.5" straight through and i had to get an 18" hotdog put in to keep it quite. now it has a deep low rumble but when you flog it it growls after about 3000 revs. it sounds oncredibly better now considering i used to be able to hear from about 3 streets away when it got to about 2500-3000 revs. Tom.

hey pwbull09, well your older than me for a start (i'm 16) and like you i just bought a zed, but i got a 260. you should have a ball, i know i am and i have hardley driven it. Tom.

cheers guys, will have a look into it. Tom.

So, howd it go? any pics yet? sorry i couldnt make it but i was at the meelup hillclimb with dad. saw some pretty neet zeds there. a dad and son both with race prepped z's and a chez v8 2+2, i didnt miss out completely. Tom.

hi everyone, i am chasing some stuff for my zed, preferably in australia, Perth would be great but i understand its hard to get stuff here. i have some stock wheels and i am after the caps that go over the centre. 4 of them. headlight covers. 260z. one pair (2 covers) Momo Boss. still chasing one. offering $50 including shipping for one. Also if anyone knows some one in perth that is wrecking a zed that i can get into contact with that would be great. Tom.

well i got to drive my dads supra on the weekend!!!!!!!!!!!! fun fun.... and i own (well its my dads to, but 100% mine when i leave home and need a car) my zed, so as soon as we (dad and i) finish poilishing them and get some tyres i can drive it anytime i can get someone to take me!!!!!!! should be awesome.

i cant make the z day. i'm at bunbury for the meelup hillclimb with my dad. Tom.

I have a highly tuned l28 (cams, triples, the works) with a 6-1 header and i THINK a 2.25 inch exhaust. but i HATE the sound of it. i agree with who ever said it sounds like a civic, but WAY louder, and a lot rougher. so i want to get a new turbo rear muffler and a couple of hot dogs to quiten it down some and to change the noise. does anyone see any flaws on this? has anyone done it and know what it sounds like? Cheers, Tom.

Okay, sounds easy enough. thanks people for your help. Tom.

thanks guys, sorry but i forgot to mention that the car has tripple webbers on it. i think this woulfdprobably change the situation a bit so if it does please let me know any tricks to making it fit. CHeers, TOm.

Hi everyone, i just bought some K$N airfilters but after having a look i cant see how they are going to fit over the airhorns. do the airhorns have to come off or do i need to buy some smaller profile ones??? Cheers, Tom.

HEHEHE, hey mickieB, well i DO have both well not me PERSONALLY. but my dad has a supra and i have a zed. chech em out. http://community.webshots.com/user/tommo560 Tom.

what, did it fall off the back of a truck? or was it an unfortunate incidend where the truck caught fire and the car was never seen again??????? . jk. btw. cant you just whack a "CAUTION: LEFT HAND DRIVE" sticker on the car and leave it lhd? that would be easiest. TOM.

Keep an eye out on http://www.zspares.com.au they have a for slae section that is not very quick or with a lot of cars but most of what they have (240 and 260 wise) is quite good. Tom.

I actually dont know how much an l28 is. i know that mine has had the woeks and is a very competative competition motor but for a little bit of road and sport i supposw you don't nee dot go a extreme. Probably cheaper to buy a car with a worked l28 if you can find one, do a motor swap, and then sell it. Tom.

I'm going to get mine done one day soon after i get some tyres on it and get the engined balanced and what i am thinking of doing it to get the carpets moulded so that they conpletely go over the footwells and then also get some mats made up and have those too. Would this work and what do you guys think?? Tom.

HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!! that definately does not sound like fun at all brett. The only hting i can say is "well, atleast it wasnt me". i know that when ever i do anything to the car my dad ALLWAYS double checks what i have done. at times it seems tedious as hell but if it only saves an incidence like that once then it is worthwhile. Tom.
