    hey everyone!

    I know this is a Long shot but i was wondering in anyone knew the 2xprevious owner of my Z, I got her on the last school holidays.
    the reason i ask is because it has 119*** on the clock and im not sure if the 100k service has been done, the previous owner was middle aged man only had her about 2-3 months and did only 4k on the dial, but the real reason i ask is because its an N/A but has a TT bar on her also it has been lowered at some point as well which is leading me to believe that an enthusiast(like all you guys..and girls) 2xpreviously owned it.

    the real reason i ask is because i don't have the spare money to do the 100k on her at the moment, and it takes a while working on the weekends when im at school during the week.

    Well here is a couple of pictures:

    again i know its a long shot! but any info helps. (hoping the 2xprevious owner was a forum member:biggrin: )

    PS: i brought it from the Logan region.

    if you were trying 2 get ppl 2 ID the car wouldnt you show is the number plate? and other indivual things like the rims...

    anyways.. do a 100k service .. if you unsure do another one.. the 100k on the zed is vital.. if left neglected it can lead 2 overheating. timing belt failure and ultimately the engine can be destroyed

    well the number plates are 348-GPQ if that helps.

    and i am going to do a 100k service anyway just means more money to pay off.

    also its been on my mind lately with all these people doing rebuilds
    how many k's average do the N/A's last?

    also the wheels are ZOID BAYROADS. (if that helps) i have google'd and what not cant find anyone/thing to deal with them.

    If u dont kill it every day... service it every 5000, do the coolant every 12 months... flush your rad every 30,000.... do the belt and pump, seals ect every 100,000... u should see upwards of 400,000kms....

    if u miss any one of the following... youll be pissing out oil and so on it will be stuffed by 250,000.

    good to know. i wont be killing it everyday might give it a few squirts every now and then. being N/A it will be mainly a cruising car.

    if i want a rush i will just jump in my dads Ford F6 running 320rwkw.:biggrin:

    Maybe do a search in zeds for sale for a red NA and see what comes up, might be lucky, the owner may have attempted to sell it on here.

    sorry dude but where do you get your information from????
    my n/a was probably one of the best well kept aus specs in australia. i have a service manual from factory that was kept up to date till today, and i am the second owner. what people gotta understand is shit happens. my rear main went then i did a suspected head gasket at 190,000K. i wouldent make such a big judgment on what you have said, i dont even think theres a z on this site thats reached 400,000k without at least one rebuild.

    You can't trust the odometer either.
    If it has had a previous owner (which all imports will have had), and most peolple here with Aus-specs, then there is a good chance of the Odomoters being wound back.
