as above! what ya'll reckon... i think they are either just damn ugly.. or there is something special about them.. i'm leaning towards them being special... unique even! can compare the looks vaguely to a diablo if u put em together.
what ya'll reckon?

Not a fan personally. I like the 200sx better, or a cheap skyline gts

remind me of Bugatti's, i like em, my boss had a TT one, and his son blew the engine up, (thrashed it down the road when engine was cold)
boss just brought a new engine from japan and had it dropped it  wasn't too cheap

this is what i mean about the diablo kinda look :
i did say slight resemblance!!
i'm kinda liking them, aparantly suspension setup and handlign is amazing for a big car, and quick for big cars! mpg not that bad, alot better then rx7.. and can pick up fairly cheap.. (i'll prob import meself again)
adam.. know what the tuning is like on these? and i thought they only made them in TT?
dunc, i like the sportscar like look

hehe, good price! some for sale for 8-9k around here!!
what i'm hoping is if i get one, i won't have as many problems controlling boost!! and i'm pretty sure it'll handle more power it's only on about 260 and it does have a 3.0 V6 engine

keep the freaking 328
You will just end up doing loads to it and driving around like a madhead anyway so fuel bills will be the same and you'll be in the same position as before

heres a good 300zx forum
http://www.300zx.co.uk
I was / still am looking at getting a TT sometime, but there are a few things you have to watch out for, coolant & air pipes are fairly weak, and the coilpacks can be a bit weak and are prone to dieing (sp).
still if there well looked after & serviced regularly, there quite a reliable, if not, thirsty car!

brother got a quote on a uk scooby turbo he's 21 with 0ncd £2k which i don't think is too bad considering it's a grp 17 and our postcode is bad.
Gibbs you still never told me who you're insured with?

for a TT if you boot it, expect around 18MPG or less, as for the coilpacks I aint sure, best talking to the people on the 300zx forums, but there not cheap!
