sake-bito Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 OK i'm selling the zed to get a R33 GTR V spec skyline I'm wanting £12.5k for it no offers as i really wanted £14 but i doubt i would get this at the moment. Its only got 21k on the clock and is the cleanest 350 i have seen. The car has a full nissan service history and has all the documents and keys etc. Tyre condition is great. Think he taxt runs out in april. Will have to check the MOT. here is a list of the mods the car has (it doesn't have much) 20" Antera wheels (with a spare back wheel) Eibach pro lowering springs Rear camber adjusters Custom twin stainless steel exhaust AEM induction kit. Carbon front lip Carbon side Z badges Carbon B pillar covers Let me know if you are interested STOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 14k sounds fairly reasonable to me mate! But expect to get some one offering you 13k and if i were you i would take it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sake-bito Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Would i just be stupid to pay so much more for an older car again though?? I've been looking at 07 plate imprezas. What are peoples opinion on them?? I want to twin turbo the zed but i just dont know if its too much hastle STOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 There are azure zeds on AT, cheaper than £14k and similar mileage...... http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/ww ... gLetter=55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1 HNK Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 i had the same thought as you about two months ago, shall i get an impreza that is seriously fast but then i just know after about a week of driving it like a hooligan and enjoying the single figure fuel consumption i would just get bored of that and miss the looks and style of the Zed. I constantly get bored with my cars, sell them, lose a fortune and then realise that i should have just kept what i had. The zed is such a good mix of performace, looks, noise that it will be with me for many more years to come. If on the other hand you need 4 seats then i probably would get an impreza as you cant really go faster for the money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a brand new spare 20" antera £700 for that one wheel But i know mods shouldn't add value I havn't actually driven an impreza yet, a mate of mine thought my DC5 was quicker than his impreza but that was maybe down to my driving. What would be a ball park figure for twin turbo on the zed?? I'd need 6k ish to get a R34 with about 60k on the clock STOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll need way more than £6k to TT a zed properly. £10k minimum apparently, more to do everything as it should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sake-bito Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Another car i've been thinking about is a M3. Just after buying the 1 series i really like the beemer. I suppose if you twin turbo the zed you would need an awsome suspension and brake set up. Serious bracing etc etc There isn't much in the 10-20k price range thats reliable and fast. I should probably buy a micra and get a bike But i do have my heart set on a R34 STOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
