The Road Warrior Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 General: JSpec ’94 RZ, L Reg 66,000 miles (some of these are kilometres) Imported in ‘99 Tax till March 07 MOT till Oct 06 Last serviced in Oct 05, approx 1000 miles ago Purchased this car in July 04 at 59k miles Full RAC inspection on purchase – only problem found was that 1 pin on front calliper was seized on each side – rectified & has been fine since Cambelt changed at 60k along with full service inc new front pads Starter motor replaced under warranty in ‘04 Valvoline oil used in every service Spec: Bilstein Shocks with standard springs Front leather seats Original Black Pure Sport Mats Facelift rear lights Professionally sprayed ‘Pre-facelift’ headlights in matt black Facelift front & side indicators Facelift 17” wheels Kenwood mp3 player (£600 new) + kenwood speakers all round Blitz Nur Spec exhaust with baffle (maybe reverted back to standard exhaust depending on what’s offered) Custom sprayed dash Standard engine with custom sprayed plastics Condition: Car is in excellent condition inside & out & mechanically perfect apart from one issue – drivers side rear shock has an intermittent creak. This started about 3 months ago after I left the car in an underground car park at work for a week. The back of the car was in front of some kind of air vent which obviously dried something up. Have had this checked by a garage who couldn’t find anything wrong with it. Have sourced a replacement bilstein shock which will be provided with the car on sale. Very good bodywork, no dents – just a few very minor scratches, interior is like new apart from the door cards which have a few marks on them. If you’re looking for an unmolested standard RZ manual with some nice cosmetic touches in excellent condition this is for you. Took me a long time to find a standard TT in v.good condition, the Blitz exhaust has only been on the car for 2 months so turbos have run on completely stock setup until then. It’s actually still restricted to 112mph as per the standard Jap setup. Had plans to de-restrict it etc but never managed to get around to it. I’m gutted to be selling & will miss this car, reason for sale is that as of 2 weeks ago I’m a dad! So need something with a decent boot & legroom in the back. Looking for £9995 with Blitz exhaust included, £9650 with standard exhaust, will be going on autotrader next week but would rather sell to an enthusiast who will look after it. Drives perfectly, both turbos pull hard, goes like a rocket. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terawua Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 That looks great - I did a double take as mine looks very similar, though nowhere near as shiny as yours! Best of luck with the sale. p.s. did you spray the dash yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Road Warrior Posted April 3, 2006 Author Share Posted April 3, 2006 Thanks dudes, dash was sprayed by Lovatt, he did a top job, I would've made a right mess of it... Used 'Armour All Protectant' from Halfords for the leather & plastics, hence the shinyness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopite Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 IIRC, this car has my old Toyota gear nob fitted to it. Should add a few grand to the price! Good luck with the sale dude! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S7EVE Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Another fine soop, if this was for sale in 6 months, i'd be ripping your arm off! Good luck with the sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Road Warrior Posted April 14, 2006 Author Share Posted April 14, 2006 Looks like this is still available, was pretty much sold last week but the chap had a change in circumstances. Also had the radiator re-cored 2 weeks ago due to a slight leak so it's like new - cost £270. Any inspection welcome...someone buy it before I change my mind!

The Road Warrior Posted April 26, 2006 Author Share Posted April 26, 2006 Car is sitting in the garage, cleaned, all serviced up & raring to go.....but feeling lonely and rejected as I don't have time to drive it....

The Road Warrior Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 Still available. I know this may result in a public beating but.......I'll consider a straight swop with an E36 M3 Evo convertible in estoril blue with similar lowish mileage. Has similar performance with a boot and a bit of rear leg room! Not actually driven one yet but been thinking about it Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of mine just bought one, its very nice! check for tappets and go for the manual, the seq is pretty good too though, the seq has gears like the touring cars. I'm suprised yours hasn't gone yet, Mines pretty much the same apart from the wheels and I thought I would have had a lot more interest than I have had.

The Road Warrior Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 Had loads of enquiries, only a few of these have been serious and had a few test pilots too Also suprised it hasn't gone yet... The M3's also have vanos problems, esp the evo's & are more expensive to mod than Jap cars of course. Anyone driven an evo? Would be good to get a comparison with a TT Soop?

The Road Warrior Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 Price reduced to £9500 with stock exhaust, £9850 with the Blitz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Road Warrior Posted May 18, 2006 Author Share Posted May 18, 2006 Is this priced too high? Would've thought a genuine mint black 6 speed TT would sell pretty sharpish, suppose the price of fuel doesn't help... Any opinions welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any opinions welcome Hi, no it's not, I was a bit worried that you might see that I've dropped mine a fair bit and it's not to undercut you or anything snidey but I'm desperate to get out of this country!!!!! I would have happily left mine at the same price had I not been eager to sell. I say leave it, it is funny though before I put mine up I was like "well this will go straight away" Honestly we've got one of the most sought after colours, a TT and a manual with low mileage, jeez! Funny eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flat4_ire Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 for starters doint bother saying seperate prices for the exhaust and without, just leave it at 9500 with the exhaust man ya know? if u dont get calls then either keep the car or drop the price, very simple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
