Paul, if you are able would you PM me the VIN of the car? I am compiling a register of UK spec Z32 cars. Out of 1548 recorded
by Nissan I now have the details of approx 200 of them (ie scrapped, SORN'd, Taxed and MOT'd). Thanks.
The premise for selling the LMGT4 wheels was "they were worth a lot on the s/h market" and "the car was probably worth more stock" (MB).
According to the program the wheels were sold for $2K and the stock were bought for $400.
I thought it was fun - great to see a whole episode devoted to a Z32. There was more than one way to skin this cat and
at the end of the day it's infotainment. The presenters gave a good account of the Z32 and it was lovely to see Steve Millen
in the show.
Personally I wouldn't use one as a daily driver especially in the winter. Not just for the ongoing issues with salt - the TT's
can have a tendency to break away suddenly at the back end in slippery conditions when the boost comes on. Mechanically
there is a lot going on in Z32s and the cars...
UK cars are more sought after than JDM imports, but as has been mentioned they have had more time to be
attacked by rust mainly caused by the salting of our roads in the winter. JDM cars for the same age are generally
(but not always) in better shape as the Japanese don't salt their roads. All...
Phil, is it OK for the 300zx-club southern members (E&W) monthly meet for June to come to you for your BBQ? We normally get about a dozen or so turning up. If so, I'll get them to post on here for numbers.
