Hey from Melbourne Australia, thought I would finally sign up on the Nico forums & introduce the arrival of my 2nd Z which I've been working on, on & off for the last 4 months since I got it to bring up to scratch.

I bought my first Z in late '07 - ('89 n/a 2+2 & auto) slowest of them all, which I loved to pieces nonetheless for 2 years until making the wise decision to sell up before throwing anymore money into it & eventually buy a manual TT.

I then owned a JZZ30 Soarer (http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii26 ... CF7518.jpg) which kept me busy for a couple of years, loved the 1jz, but decided to put that up on the market only to come across the opportunity to swap it for my another Z ..

This new one is an '89 model, 5spd 2+2 Twin-Turbo in (KH2) Grey.
Ironically, the same colour & body as my last, so I refer to it as 'Version 2'.

I plan on starting a build thread as well, so I'll leave the modifications & whatnot for that :bigthumb:

Hi Mike :wavey:
Welcome to NICO. You Aussies do some crazy stuff. I look forward to the build on NICO.
I have not seen that color on a Z before. I like it. :bigthumb:

Thanks for the warm welcome ! Build thread now up :bigthumb:

Here is another photo of the factory KH2 in natural light, looking a lot more familiar to what you guy's have over there.

Hey just starting a rebuild myself. Have seen a lot of your posts. Good stuff. Think you could shoot me your email so I can run some ideas and questions past you?
