Hey Guys,

I've seen a lot of 180SX's lately on the roads in Sydney. At least 2 per day i think..nice looking car and most drivers i've seen are always driving the car hard! Nice!! Never paid too much attention to them until now but see a few really nice ones recently.

Keep up the good work!
:lol:

Also, another thing..i don't mean to generalise but i will anyway - how come most 300ZX owners are normally around 40 years old?

Serious? I know a guy in St Leonards who has 1 and claims it's twice as fast as my S15! bah..just trash talk i'm sure but he seems very proud.

I never see any1 gun it against me @ a set of lights, they always drive conservativly. I like the look of them especially the targa top red ones though.

That's because the 300ZX was a car that had started as a lithe sports machine, but put on a few pounds of the years, and gotten a bit chubbier and less sporty, but more mature in a luxury tourer way.

Kinda like most 40 year olds, if you think about it. :D

You can make a Z32 go fast in a straight line (especially the twin turbo ones). Its possible, but I don't know how probable it would be.

At any rate, I'm sure the guy thinks he's king shit. Its typical from people who've bought something they think is performance, but only ever dragged off old people in Dunnydores, or tools who have a lot of money and buy a show pony sports car they'll never see 50% of its limits in.

I used to get the same attitude from bike riders, who thought they'd be able to blow me away on a twisty back road. Thought they were king shit, until I was riding their arse in my old N15 SSS flashing the high beams because I was having to go so slow that I was a gear up for the corners.

Except me. After still_life rode my arse up the Old Road, and with Dumhed blowing me away through Galston Gorge, I know that my car isn't the best. Sure, neither are stock and both guys are good drivers, but still.......

I always find it funny reading car mags, and people feeling the need to write in and justify their purchase when the journos don't say their car is t best in class. I just feel like replying back with "To all the whinging bastards who don't like your judgement that their cars aren't tops, 'Aww....princess. Someone feeling a little insecure?' "

As for pics, I've lost my hosting. When I register my own domain, I'll put some images back up. There's pics of my car from CMYS13's birthday cruise; I did post a reply in a thread of yours a while back.
