had a few different comments: 'man that thing must fly' 'what type of car is that' - my car has no badges apart from nissan on the caliper 'wow nice ferrari' 'bet you hit a lot of kerbs in that thing' all sorts of stuff. its nice to know people notice the car, at the same time it does get a bit annoying driving it down main streets, i feel like a poser when i don't want to be - just want to get to places!!
Always the comment that the car looks awesome Once this lil kid wearing a ferrari jacket stopped to take a photo on my car at a petrol station store manager at my shop always says how slow my NA was and how 200sx's will eat it...so now I got a TT I guess he won't have much to say anymore
A Zed with Lambo Doors Yes Simon Absolutely, if you have the cash to burn and do them properly hell they complete the car and yes I have them on mine for those that did not know. And yes back on to the topic when the Z needed a re-fill at the petrol station a copper, a minute later filled up the patrol car beside me. His coment was how much did the Lambo set u back
Speaking of smart coppers... Once I was with a mate in his bunky 1970 Datsun ute when we got pulled over. The cop who was obviously 'yellow sticker happy' at the time, must have tried for at least 5 minutes to lift the bonnet but in the end gave up and eventually let us go on our merry way. We were laughing so much, we had stomach pains.....if only the copper knew it was a reversed-hinge bonnet!!
well my boss at my old work had an s15 200sx (generally a very nice car but his was a riced pos) and every time i would arrive at work he would say something like "so did it overheat along the way?" or various comments about how slow it is . most ppl though show some more respect. from the outside for the first time its generally "WOW, how can you afford a car like that at your age?" (im 18) and when i take people for a drive its generally "geez its bumpy" (coilovers) or "i like the g-forces around the bends" (again, coilovers )
Thursday night..... just gone..... Random Breath Test on a country back road..... 1 male & 1 female copper on duty pull up and did the huff n puff thingy & show em the ticket MC ( male copper ) "So what make of car is it?" ME "Nissan" MC "looks like its a quick car....." ME "its quick enough" MC "can you move it over to the side of the road & pop the bonnet" ME "sure but you wont understand a thing you see under there !!! " MC "Oh I know a bit about cars mate ..... " Move car to where he pointed..... pop bonnet for inspection FC ( female cop ) "lovely looking car, such beautiful lines" (said as she ran her finger tips up the rear hatch and as she leans in through the open door ) ME ( flirting .... ) "I'd love to take you for a ride" ( said in a 50/50 way as to whether I meant the car or her .... leaving her to decide.... ) FC...... smiles with a slight blush FC " 300kph on the speedo.... does it really go that fast?" ME ..... smiles back ( with rude thoughts running through brain) ME " depends on my mood, sometimes it goes hard, other times I just take all day " MC " Good Lord...... that engine must be hell to work on !!!...... Petrol I asume ?" ME " its V6, Twin Turbo, blah blah blah blah.... and its petrol" MC "I cant even see the sparkplugs !!" ME "Their down in there" ( pointing to coilpak) MC "and the turbos ???" ME "Down the back of the block" MC .... noods in way that says 'I knew that' FC .... now up at the front of the Zed beside me "must take a long time to service" ME ( still flirting) "the first time was was sort of scary but exciting at the same time, since then I've learnt a lot, now I like to explore every nook and cranny to better understand what makes her so ..... zexy" FC .... bites bottom lip and casually walks around to the passengers door ( hips in full catwalk mode ) opens door and looks in the back...... MC .... hands back my ticket " have a good day sir " ME " You too mate" ... close bonnet FC "not much room in the back " ME .... "depends " FC ... closes door....... " enjoy the rest of your day " ME... smiles back at her.... then get in the zed as they walk back to the patrolcar there's a business card on the passengers floor that wasnt there when I was pulled up... That card says it all Kingy
aaahhhhhh You must have been in WA at the time. There's a Female cop doing that to all the zedders :zlove:
Nah.... country Victoria !!!!! Maybe she transfered ???????? I'll find out tonight when we meet up for a coffee
" oh no your car is still sick" and " you are driving that four times four?" my japanese ex gf asking about the 4x4 lol
When he is not looking take his keys, pop the bonnet and unscrew his radiator cap. Then he will overheat on the way home. Martin 1, Gay Boss 0.
Kudos for the Zed Had a friend from Brisbane down over the weekend who races a series 4 (I think) turbo RX7. He was most impressed with the layout of the engine bay and how easy it was to get at everything given how much stuff is crammed in there. He also quite enjoyed the nice even power delivery of the NA. It's not what you've got, it is how you deliver it. Nice to hear that sort of thing from someone who really knows his way around his cars.
was he looking at your car or his own RX7? lol When i look into the engine bay of a rotory i almost fall in looking for the engine
