May 24, 200420 yr comment_82504 I agree... I think the car is highly overpriced...probably marked up by this dealer. Who knows whats under that paint job?

May 24, 200420 yr comment_82514 Looks like a fairly nice car...........until you see the engine bay and interior! As a car dealer, I would be embarassed to advertise that car, for that much money and show such awful pictures of the interior and engine. :tapemouth Vicky Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/11868-check-this-out-400-hp/?&page=2#findComment-82514 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 24, 200420 yr comment_82521 Looking at the hood area is it out of alinement? The hood seems to be alittle higher than the light buckets. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/11868-check-this-out-400-hp/?&page=2#findComment-82521 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 25, 200420 yr comment_82635 Have you ever priced and done a 3 ltr kit. Price it out plus doing all the maching and everything to do it "right " and it gets costly.Also look at the engine management system, not cheap either, not to include dyno time to tune the motor.Gets pricey preety quick. You could build yourself a 300 hp turbo motor for fairly cheap. Getting over that hump, though it starts costing, and to do it right costs more!If you notice also in the background all the other cars he has for sale I dont think that the Z is in bad shape.Just like the rest I think they should clean up the car some more.

May 25, 200420 yr comment_82636 i realise what your saying and basically it was my same point I'm sure the money has been spent on the motor etc..The body looks to be reasonably ok but everyone knows pictures hide the things we hate seeing in person.I think it would be a blast to drive just that it could use a bit of a tidy up for the price they are asking.By all means probably a worthwhile car , you couldn't build the same thing in Australia anyway for that money. LD cranks are rare and so are turbo L28's.
