DoogyRev Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Welcome Along Nice car you have there As for the Rays, I would say between 350-450 depending on the condition and tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really I used to think the SXOC forum was "happening" this was about 5-6 years ago though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Welcome along mate Nice car you've got there. Toyed with the idea of an S14 to replace the zed but went for an R33 in the end. Do have a soft spot for the S14 and 15 though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
200sxray Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 aye i have always wanted an s14a maybe not the s14 as i dont like the lights.. and i love the s15 but the import market and uk prices are just too high! and the sxoc forum is ok... alot of the same topics being coverd any forum is good if you stick at it and get stuck in to some build threads.

Aaron350zHorobin Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 from a ex200 owner, still missing her but the zed makes it all better lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
200sxray Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 Yeah? is she not heavier / not as nimble or does the torque just power you through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron350zHorobin Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 They both have there positives matey, what i miss the most is forced induction after owning 3 sx's thats why i've just took the zed off the road and started a supercharger conversion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronzee Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Yeah? is she not heavier / not as nimble or does the torque just power you through Had an S15, yes the 350 is heavier, but is also a lot more torquey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
