Help identifying my car and engine

Postby ollieboy » Thu Oct 20, 2005 9:47 pm

I just bought a 1995 trueno, the thing is that I don't know what type.

It has a 1500cc engine so its not a BZR or BZG and I can't work out what it is because there is nothing on the net to help me.

Is there such a thing as just a Trueno or would it have a sub model name as well like BZR.

Cheers

Would be something like an XZ model.
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

I think you will find its a FZ model. With a 5A-FE engine pumping out a massive 100ps @ 5600 rpm.

Yep it has Wof and Reg til February next year.

The reason I got it so cheap is because the guy is going overseas and had been trying to sell the vehicle for quite a while and got desperate. He had lots of tyre kickers and when I was the only one who was interested he sold it for cheap. I seem to attract cheap cars aye, most of the cars I have bought have been at really reduced prices. :lol:

$1500 for a good condition AE92 GTZ with Reg / Wof was the best deal I ever had :wink:
