thats awefully pruposeful, the customisations i mean. the standard one looks cool too...
but i think the 280sx was a bit of a loss of focus for nissan!!!
anyway load a picture of the 240z's dashboard - i think it was way ahead of time. actually has many design cues from the s15, like the 3 circular airvents!!!
That is a good looking one, but without the mods no way.

hey VeeCee, dude, how do you know me ????
i see i have loads of research to do.
i think you answer is on page 2 post number 7. yourself and my fiance' both worked at adp. but i dont really know you. never met you anything!!!
Let me add my 2c, the s14 is a cool car, standard better than the s13 standard because everything is newer..... I love the s13, with minimum money spent my car looks very nice, I prefur the s13....but think of what you want to do, look at money and what you want at the end of the day.
S14....+-80000, fix and upgrades....R20000-R35000= +-R100000-R115000?
S13...+-50000,fix and upgrades....R20000-R35000= R90 000 at the most.
If you spend say 20k on the engine alone you will have a monster on the road....spend another 10k on cosmetics...you will will feel like you driving a Firrari.
Think about your budget and what will make the butterflies in your stomace FLY...my sx does that for me.

ahem when i was a ADP, i used to drink alot so everyone knew me 😛
well, miff or not - i actually had the list going from 240/260/280zx, but knowing that people will jump to google to see what is this zx thing, i deleted the first two
240ZX:
260ZX :
280ZX:
as for losing focus - did you not mean the 300zx? i wouldn't want one either
THE FAT, BLOATED, UNSPORTY, LOOK AT ME - I WAS MADE FOR AMERICA 300ZX!!!
or even uglier : the one before that :
the 240, 260 and 280 are pretty similar looking (although the inside looks like an old datsun inside - or ok ok any old car's inside - yecchhhh)
whenever i see one in traffic it's like the loving look you give a baby brother (although its mmm older 😕 😮 )
hello 🙂

how could you???
i love that 300zx, but i dont want that v6TT, because i tend to work on my own cars - and common sense dont go near it. rather give me one with an RB25/26 in it, then i could at least drive it to work everyday!!!
Ja I love the 300zx aswell. It might be my next car 😂 . But I want it with the V6TT.

the problem is that the engine bay is very tight with that v6tt in there!!! thats all. no space to fish out a bolt if you drop it!!!!

It not tight, its F#*%ing tight 😂 .
I will have a huge prob with dropping bolts, I mean my SX has already put on a Kg or so 😂
just pick it up and give it a good shake man!
test drove a 300ZX once - inside almost exactly like s13, but it felt a lot more cramped...
and if you guys moan about part prices now - wait till you get THAT sponge! there were even fewer of them around.
i also once phoned a guy that advertised CA18 parts and asked why - he said he is putting a 300ZX engine in his s13... well, i don't see him on the forum, so i guess it sez it all then... 🙂

I bought a CAS from the oke, he lived in PTA North somewhere... He was moving to the Cape as far as I could remember. He said the engine was a bit heavy and car was very tail happy. Was a nice blue SX though.
aha, so he did make it - interesting to hear
well at least there is one happy sx out there - albeit tail happy 😀
