Nissan 300ZX - Bobbin Threadbare

Ok, going to have a look at that LPG Jag fell through as it was sold. I have spotted a Nissan 300ZX circa 1988 for sale; they chap has offered me a decent price but it needs a bit of work doing. Anyone ever owned/driven/scrapped(!!) one? The 3.0L V6 is calling me...

I had a trbo for a while (well a car I was selling) it was great - fairly comfy and pretty quick. They can suffer from tinworm.

If you're going sideways in Mr B's 1.8 Celica, do you need another 1.2 litres...?!

Black ice or spilt diesel? A good driver always adjusts their driving to suit the road conditioons. [haughty sniff]

Rainwater, just rainwater. The roads in the Fylde aren't exactly awesome either. Do you never like to test the behaviour of a vehicle you don't drive often (not to 'brown trousers time' obviously)? I like to drive the Celica as though it's my Mazda. It causes Mr B's hair to stand on end, thus saving a small fortune on hair gel.
