might part with the G :(

and get a Z! :flash:

But it would have to be a pretty cheap Z. I decided on the 300ZX. I'm thinking either a late model Z31 turbo (~87-89) or a Z32 N/A (90-~92). two completely different cars, yet still very similar in performance.

Anyone have any suggestions as to which might be a more desireable car? I've never driven either one of them. Ill have to find some want ads and do some test driving.

The choice is yours in the end, but if you get a Honda, we might have to disown you! :right:

Its funny, you thinkin bout partin with your G. I am just about to part with my Lude (bye bye) and moving towards my much desired Infiniti G20T. Picking him up on Tuesday, and I can't wait!!!

My CosmicG20T, not only in performance, but in looks too - my silver ride, with his slick custom front skirt and spoiler.......its ready to take off in the streets of Toronto!!!!



ATTACHED IS A PIC OF THE COSMICG20T RIDE, THERE WILL BE MORE TO COME...

Youre gonna part with your G to get some old a$$ Nissan 300ZX. I wouldnt give mines for that. I had to choose from a 93' 3000GT Twin Turbo AWD with 19'inch wheels , racing clutch, short shifter, and exhaust. I couldnt handle that thing holding the RPM's and dropping the clutch in first gear, it was super fast but i thought about my LIFE, INSURANCE, GAS, SEATS, MITSUBISHI.....HPMPHH or pimp the hoes and have a BRAND NEW Sport Luxury Sedan that will never give me problems, so I went with the G. :sun:

Hey, at least you are staying with Nissan

I dunno if you like em, but you could get an older model Z (240,260,280) and throw a newer motor in it with the money you get for your G...

You might be able to pick up a rust free Z and swap a 280zxt motor or small block chevy with the cash you get for your G...

Just a thought...

Get the N/A Z32. My friend has one and I think its really fast. I never have driven a turbo but for performance the Z32 is excellent

[Domiken]

I guess it depends on your style, racing or luxury. I like both, the G has fast looks even though it lacks the performance i still love the car.

Good move there CosmicG20T and congrats. Good looking front skirt. Maybe I'll spot your wheels around T.O.

I DO notice that my Prelude definitely had better UMPH!!! especially in 1st and 2nd gear, the torque and pickup was much more....after all I did trade in 40 horses and .3 litres for the slick looks and lux of the Infiniti G!!!!

When driving in TO today, I felt my G was a little 'sluggish' in 1st and 2nd, but that's maybe cos I am still used 2 the torque of my Lude.....time will tell!!! The Infiniti does feel like a heavier car though 4 sure, and the interior chasis is much higher, so I am not glued 2 the road like b4!!!!!

I LOVE MY COSMICG THOUGH, HE IS A REAL BEAUTY!!!!

[Domiken]

True, another Honda driver intrigued by an INFINITI

Um, yeah.... of course your lude had more oomph!!! It was a coupe meant to perform. The G20 is technically a family sedan that happens to have enough hanging down there to get going. :flash: I'll be the first one to admit that my friend's VTEC lude had more "get-go" than my G. It is smaller, lighter, newer, and performance-oriented straight off the assembly line.

Give it some time. You'll be beating ricer-boy Civs in no time once you really start to feel what you can do.
