    I'am on my parents insurance, although being the main driver of the vehicle and living on the coast makes it quite expensive to insure any sports coupe. I know what your thinking though, just put my name as one of the drivers instead of the main right? But, this way i get a rating and in the end will eventually, :rolleyes:, get cheaper insurance.

    It just isn't the insurance, but also the cost of petrol and maintaining an older car. I guess being a poor uni student has it's con's...:confused:

    But, on the up side I do have something to look foward to. :drool:

    Wait, I saw a black 300zx driving along olsen last week and all i can remember is it had 'TTZ' on the number plate. Was the first Zed i saw on the coast. Couldn't believe my eyes when i saw a red NA driving about 300m behind it. Haven't seen any others since then, must just not be on the road at the right times.. :confused:

    Isn't it amazing how alcohol can make you save? :rofl:

    Not that I expect bias or anything :rolleyes:.
    But, is the VG30DE motor considered reliable even though it is about 20 years old? I understand that any motor if maintained properly can be reliable. Just more interested in how much abuse the engine can put up with. Could this car easily last 50 years?

    Wow I was spotted? about a week ago there was a random red 300zx following me down Olsen Ave. :eek: I had that NA in its place, about 300m behind. :p

    Was it my car? TTZ10

    A VG30DE is very reliable if its maintained, all comes to the one you intend on buying. Same goes for the VG30DETT.

    Yeah, looking at your car now it must have been you. I must say, it is an awesome example of a well maintained zed. I remember thinking at the time, Damn that is shiney! That red zed behind you seemed in bad/average shape though.... :(
