Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

we are usually pretty good but we have tonnes of stuff coming in through estate things so stuff is coming in and out every weekend!

Ahhh yeah that would do it! A lot we had was from the garage when we moved, and stuff I had in my parents garage that when we came up went yeah can clear that out... Had so many boxes unpacked for a couple of years and finally got most of it unpacked and sorted... The joys of having stuff in storage and forgetting what is actually there!!!

Hopefully dropping the zed off tomorrow morning for a bit of a tune later in the week. Will see what happens this time!

Zed tuned eh.

well best of luck

who is doing the tune?

Karl at Epic Automotive Concepts. He is a Z32 (among others) owner and quite a good friend of many years. He has recently started a workshop, doesn't have a dyno but he has access to one.

He can offer a complete drive in, drive out service for restorations or modifications of any scale, and has probably the nicest zed in Aus, and probably one of the nicest in the world.

Hi zed started like this:

commodore blue?

After 4 years of being a victim to lack of confidence while merging in a 2 tonne 4WD, life once again has meaning......out of the box, pure fun!

it looks very nice and posh Dan.

Honestly you may find sumitomo's somewhat underwhelming...

Well it's as big as I can go without paying big money. I think the 34 gtt is 6pm bigger but really no improvement. The stock stagea brakes are terribly bad. They have 2 pot brakes and the same disc size as an n14 pulsar. The sumitomo are a huge upgrade. With some dba 4000 rotors and some nice pads it will be a massive difference. I know it's not hard core big brake spec but much bigger rotors and calipers than I'm currently using

"it looks very nice and posh Dan"

Some may know the story of when my R34 was sold under duress, that I was told "no more Japanese boy racer cars" which left me with a massive dilemma, basically it had to be German, AWD and fast. Flash forward 4 years and I finally got what I wanted.

I picked Han up in it after work and she said it made her feel sick each time I gave it some throttle.....my job is done.

lol yuppie car, at least it isn't dsg/s-tronic auto whatever.. novelty gets old and boring to drive rather fast..

also make sure you get ecu flash with whichever rip off company, better value for money than usual bolt on upgrades.

Stock as a rock, 0-100 in 5.7 (feels quicker though) APR stage 2 on the books. Should pull a clean 0-100 in 4.5

2nd gear is the impressive one, nice and punchy

you might want to do your homework and read about apr/harding stories ;) should look into BPS tuning as it'll be car specific

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
