hello to every1. i just thought i would post my experience drivin a 300zx 2day. my boss gave me his car for the day and i desided to see what that car got. and i was really suprised. i heard alot bout them cars, and mainly the bad things. but i have to say them cars r awsome. it was a TT manual 2+2. it was fast, really fast. drove alot of fast cars and i have to say that is one of the top. and i was drivin it in a heat, and i was givin it to the car. after 6 hours of constant drivin, it did not over heat, and on top of that 500km out of a full tank was awsome. but they were fast, i was scared of it. i am sure ppl who have them will agree with me.
so i thoght i would post that and share it. lol.
wot u ppl think.

Didn't they come stock with twin exhausts? Either way he's laughing about your non-turbo car having 170 odd kw and having 'lag'. AFAIK they had 168kw at the fly from the factory.

I used to really doubt these cars, always thought they were a land boat until I met one in my R33 one night and fair enough I was only running stock boost at the time but that 300zx could move, in a straight line at least I've no idea how they handle but I can have a guess.

ive changed my theory about 300zx sence i went for a strap in camerons auto TT version
was heaps good in a straight line but could do with some better suspension for corners, to make it a little more comfy

I'm glad you enjoyed it punksnut..

Yes, well wouldn't you expect every car with 320kw@wheels to be super fast? Thats what about 420kw@fly??? Still any 206kw (factory claim) Twin Turbo 3ltr v6 is going to have a bit of go, even when its dead stock..

Also if I was going to buy a turbo Nissan from the mid 90's then I would def take one for a drive and sus it out..

Oh and just to let you know this is like the 5th 300zx thread in as many weeks thumbsup.gif

All this boat bullshit is the biggest load of bandwagon shit ever. If you ask 90% of the people who are calling these cars boats their response is 'no.' Soarers are not boats, 300s are not boats! Who has been in a soarer with coilovers? or even just with lowered springs? Hmmm they sit flat and stable around corners while being almost nimble. If 300s are boats then why are they so popular in the curcuit racing scene?

Fuck all this bandwagon shit that disses car simply based on a 'well they said' mentality. Before commenting on a car, make sure you actually have first hand experince with it.

Yeah mate they came stock with twin exhausts but I removed those and put two shit cannons on them and it made it loose power which was weird.

They handle good, its the best handling car i've driven.

actually only the twin turbo came with twin exhaust, the NA just has a single, sorry just thought i would clear that up


oh and does said LAG continue untill it hits VTEC?


and about them being boats, well they weigh only just under 1500kg. now really a new commy only weighs about 50kg more.. does that make commodores boats too?
