    You sure? Says TT in the add, has TT front bar and the later models didnt come out with a stock boost gauge soo looks like a TT too me.

    yeah i was assuming TT based on the Add

    Had a hard think on the drive home. Would LOVE to go for this but wont. Better th devil you know and all that. I have to stop thinking the grass is greener somewhere else.

    It WONT cost me $6.5K to get my zed up to scratch... maybe $6.4k lols

    Yeah, just stick to what you got man. The only way i would jump from my zed to another zed is if i got a 2000 spec. Other than that, mine is perfect. (well, after I correct some issues).

    Cheers,

    For the record nissan did drop the boost gauge from all TT models from 94 - 98 and then put it back into the 2000spec model. I think this is becuase nissan started to reduce cost by making most standard equipment in the z a optional part when you purchased the car. The 2000spec got all the optionals as standard. I would still hold on to my current z as it was my first z and first car. Still would of been nice to get this beauty for sure.

    Being the first to own a car in aus doesnt mean anything. At least you can drive the car before you purchase it. I dont see what all the comotion is about, a Z is a Z (unless its 2k maby?) There are good ones and there are bad ones.

    I imagine you could get quite a mint Z for 16G's

    imports can work,but can also be a horror story

    First Zed i looked at, the guy had imported himself (back in the 15 year rule) and spent $20K on the car AFTER landing, to get it up to scratch

    Scratch being still bad enough for a baaad RAC inspection and for me to walk away and wait another 2 years.

    On the other hand, one of the nicest Zeds i Know (midnites) was an import
