Hi all I'm new to the forum, I've been reading it for a while but paid up today to become a full member, I used to own a left hook 260x 2+2 about 20 years ago and loved it to bits, Being young at the time I ended up ruining it though!
I'm in the proses of selling my newly finished 517 BHP Pulsar Gti-R, at the moment, It's taken me 7 years and nearly 60k to build and is a fantastic car to drive on the open road, But I'm bored with all that power, How does that old saying go > to much power corrupts , I can see me loosing my licence if I'm not careful .
Anyway I'll be in the market for another 260Z soon, I've spotted a couple I like on pistonheads and on here, But this time I'm going for a 2 seater rather than a 2+2, I'm not sure in what direction I want to go with it though, I don't think I would go after big numbers again because I want something far more drivable, So with that in mind I think 300 bhp is my ultimate goal.
I'd appreciate any advice from you guys, My last one had tripple 40 webbers which where pretty good but wouldn't give me the power I'm after, For that matter I doubt the 6 pot could be pushed that far or am I mistaken ?, Ideally I'd rather get the standard engine to go that far if pos, Cost not being a problem, My other idea was to maybe fit a 3.9-5.0lt rover V8 and a big Holly carb.
Anyway hello to one and all and thanks in advance for any advice given.
Regards Rob
