ozy

best car game ever! ive not played every car game on the market, but nothing has bet this for sheer joy with the mates on a night in!

honestly, i wasnt mad on the 2+2 lines. most pics didnt help by having awful colours, but yours looks the part. would love to see it in the flesh and the other Z cars too. maybe some big vintage show when mine comes in! oh yeah, go for a cruise

alright datsun-jay!!! the original you got from oz was good, but what youve done with it is amazing!!! ive never even seen a datsun in ireland, so ive not seen yours. we should set up a d.o.c.i. datsun owners club ireland!!! youd count the members on 1 hand and wed have meets at the back of mcdonalds in the pissing rain. itd be mad! damn you, youve got the deep dish alloys

aw quit, rear wheel drive is killer. in ireland we get frosty winters, but some places dont bother salting the roads (county meath). 250bhp nissan S15 with hard suspension on a straight road doing 45mph good to hear you and the machine are ok!

oh yeah, i saw the forum on gtr.co.uk. thats cool, the car sounds amazing! tell miguel i appreciate the car (and the buzz its created) very much! ive downloaded the pics already from the site, cant look at it enough!

@datsun-jay you scared the shit outta me! thought something was up. thats her alright. what does stock mean(yes i can be thick) i know theres a guy in japan that wants to take pics of her and put her in a magazine, maybe this is it?... anyways, as far as i know, shes still mine.

the only documentation ive gotten calls it a fairlady Z. as its a jap, thats her name. but that 2.8 litre engine makes her a 280z in the western world. werent they simply named after the engine? i believe that even within certain models, there are loads of changes, so an early 260 would be slightly diff from a late one, so im not hung up on the proper name, theyre all the same family to me, but im no purist....sorry folks! heres the last car after it made contact with a tree broke my right leg and f****d up both my knees. that was 2nd feb, still not 100% back. did climb a small mountain last week though. which was good, 2500 feet above sea level, oh yeah

ive seen some of these cars posted up already, but hey, whatcha gonna do? with this interior so far ive got this not too far away from the dream...

ill enjoy her immensely when she hits this emerald isle. thanks for the nice comments, look forward to yapping to all of you on the forums in the future!

i had ordered a 240z, but then relaxed and said "of that shape" having seen the 280z rear light cluster, i kind of prefer it..... HOWEVER, i think the 240z had a nicer dash in her. may look up threads another time to see if people have put in the older dash. but basically its as close as i figured id get to regarding my dream Z, so i said fuckit, ill get her!

aw quit, is it a 240z, fairlady z, 260 or 280z. its all stuff that im not mad about. i just like the car so just bought it. now, technically shes a fairlady z as its JDM. so thats nice and easy. the prob is in the western world, numbers are cool and macho. so the 240z was named after her engine (as the 350z is today). so the 260z has a 2.6, and 280z has an L28. now, in my opinion, when you say 260z, 280z etc, people think of the later heavier models, say 280zx. even though this shape is as per 240z. its just handier to say 240z. if i tell someone ive got a 280z, theyll get confused (present company excepted of course!!!) but if i say 240z, theyd have more of a chance to know it. in saying all that, might start calling mine a 300z as shes got a L28 bored out to 3.0. god i hate clarifying this and the worst part is, i know ive probably gotten it wrong!

the company i went through are called newera imports. they have a man based in tokyo. email him and he emails the auction sheets as the car requested becomes available. hell say exactly whats right or wrong, where work has been done. totally honest. if you dont like what he brings to you, hell just keep looking. this came up, i said x,y,z is my budget, so it was got inside that. they look after all shipping, duty, taxes everything. when i get it, itll be registered and ready to drive, all i have to do is tell the insurance company. all done for a reasonable set fee, no matter the cost of the car. so im based in ireland, ill be waiting 5/6 weeks for the boat to get here.

hi folks. new to the site officially, but often visited before following gav240z's advice on another forum. was waiting till my baby was purchased before i showed up here! heres my soon to be datsun 240z. she was purchased at an auction last week in tokyo by newera imports ( http://www.neweraimports.com/index.htm ) and A.D.D. performance ( http://www.addperformance.ie/ ) I previously owned an s15 spec R, but a tree went through it! shes got the original L28 straight 6, bored out to 3.0. lovely watanabe alloys and the bolt on wide arch kit. sexy time hope to have by late august, cant wait to join in on the datsun buzz as these cars are very rare in ireland (ive never seen one anyway)
