I test drove a ZZ/T today...
what a beast of a car
grey import, 1983 TG shape... 1.8dohc injected, rx3 brakes hardened suspension
quickest and most fun 4cylinder car i have ever driven
and best part is i'm buying it within a week... so its goodbye to the green machine.
If you want a Gemini in sydney my TX is now for sale, lookin for around $800
email me for more info and pics. |

How cool is that?
One of Isuzu's rare beasts (in this country at least).
Good luck with it. |

Yeah it will definatly be going in the gallery!
I spose it will be under stock, cause it is in stock condition... but would give some of the modded cars in there modded gallery a run for their money.
I dont know if i wrote this before but it actually used to be a police car in melbourne, it was imported through a melbourne dealership, then the cops had it, then a cop bought it ex-cop, then his brother bought it.... then i bought it off his brother.... dosn't make alot of sense i know but it is interesting to know a cars history.
Dave : i think this might be another one for your compendium (has it been a year yet? i'll give you as much info as i can, i havn't been able to find much at all, only a couple of pics on the Isuzu clubs website...
Cheers,
Martin |

So is there an actual model called a ZZ\T, I heard of only ZZ\Z the Aussie verson thats just cosmetic tacho dash etc, and the imported ZZ\R which are very very rare, theres a guy here in Melbourne thats got one, 4wdiscs, 1.8 Twin Cam efi its a coupe with a TG Front and the back looks nothing like the models here! It nice to see everything there from the factory |

Yeah thats what it is, 1.8 twin cam 4 wheel rx3 brakes etc
except its a 1984 model so same shape as a TG... with all the same cosmetics as the ZZ/Z
for some reason its different to a ZZ/R but im not sure how as yet, its really hard to find info so if anyones got some it'd be great to hear it |

Nah, it's been about 3 years since I originally started it, lost the original version and then re-wrote it.
Then every time I reckon I'm near the end, I find more info to include - that's the thing, I wanted it to be definitive and have every bit of info I could find - I thought there would be an end to it, but there hasn't.
It's drying up a bit now, but I've been slack.
I'm sorry. It'll happen, trust me. |
