No offence, I'm just not an alfa fan. and I've even heard hard core alfa guys tell me not to get an alfa.....

Ja you either love em or hate em. I LOVE Alfa's, just wish they would get back to their racing heratage and make some fast cars again.

Although the new GT does PWN the 330i BM

Alfa's are amazing... one have to say... it really is, where else have you seen a car where the engine sports wooden block? Now really!

For 20 grand I would get a L28 Skyline.... and later replace the L28 with a RB25det.

Just went throught the Junk Mail, lots of 2.8 Skylines there... http://www.junkmail.co.za

If you can get a 2.0 SGLi model for a bargain, it uses the same drivetrain as the 3.0 SGLi, just add turbo, nos or RD25/6det/tt

Question: Does a 280zx have coils or leaf springs at the back?

Hmmmm...

Seen a Z for R23k in Nylstroom......

the only decent Z's are the 240z and the 260z.

i would rather have an old skyline than a 280zx. i reckon they're horrible!

Sokar · Post by **Sokar** » Wed May 16, 2007 11:18 am

do you know what the "X" in 280ZX Stands for???

Sokar · Post by **Sokar** » Wed May 16, 2007 11:29 am

Never mind, I see there are 2 variants, and the one for R23k is definately not a turbo...

Silly me, forgot all about the 280ZX.... that was before the Zs got fat... and its got a L28 EFI... I have seen 240z pics with a Nissan VK45 4.5L V8. 273kw std....
