Finally Got Hold of a Z31!!

[Big Supes]

Howdy peeps,

Thought I'd say hi on here. I recently purchased a UK Z31 and I'm over the moon with it. Me and my girlfriend drove from Southampton to the Isle of Lewis in my Ford Focus to go and view it/pick it up. She drove back with zero issues at all which was one heck of a road test!

Current plans are to poly bush all round, new suspension set up (undecided on what to go for) and look up either servicing the gearbox (thrust bearing is on its way out, I think) or I've heard people swap them out for the z32 gearbox? Swap the aerials out for a S2000 stubby aerial and maybe remove the spot lights.

After having a little wash with my Supra.

... good start.

Looks really nice.
As you say, amazing that it made that journey without problems.
Mind you, I guess occasionally a Ford must be able to manage that

 

[Mr.G]

Wow, she looks great!

Beautiful love a good 31. Hopefully see it around. I did see a white one a fortnight or so back, maybe it was this one?

Nice motor! As said above live with it a while before deciding what to change. It looks great as is.

i think the same ,enjoy it a while,i know the previous owner had it a long time and spent lots of time and effort on her,being honest the only thing i dont like is those large twin ariels,apart from that its a great looking car,id be chuffed if i had it

 

[Jake RAH]

Very nice! You must be chuffed.
If it was mine I'd remove the spot lights, but that's just a personal preference.

Hope to see it in the metal at a meet sometime

Enjoy

It had been for sale for a while, probably due to the location!!

It's been a while but I've just finished moving our new house so we've been without internet. I'm never moving again.

Thanks for the appreciation guys. I really have the Z bug!

Ah, you know Ian? He looked after her well. I know he's very particular about it... hopefully he will appreciate it once I have put my own mark on it.

BTW, now it only has one aerial.

That would have been me. We went along to a meet with the Nissan S body guys to eyesworth pond (think that's what it's called).

Nice one!

Yeah, I must admit, I didn't take the decision lightly to travel up from Southampton to go and get it, but I guess it's just what us petrol heads do! I knew I'd have to travel far if I wanted a decent Z31.

.... Oh yea, I sent a request to the facebook group Jez.
