1992 nissan 300zx twin turbo engine for sale

1993 Nissan 300ZX - Nissan 300ZX, a sexy blast to drive.

This is a great looking vehicle, and a total hoot to drive. I feel like a million bucks driving it around. And driving? It doesn't get better than this without breaking the bank. My baby corners like she's on rails It's as smooth at one-hundred-forty-seven miles and hour as it is at thirty. There's no vibration at high speeds, everything is solid without rattles. The interior has every bell and whistle that was available at the time. It's an awesome, sexy car to drive.

I was driving out to Wendover, Nevada, and it's a long open stretch of highway, I mean see to the horizon open highway. I had Z rated tires on it and decided to open her up. The only person that was going to die was me. So, I romped on it. I got up to almost one fifty before I could finally see oncoming traffic and slowed down. It was exhilarating and a total rush.

I love the way it handles, I can't stress enough how much fun it is. I like the alarm system, it adds some comfort in parking it. The T-top gives it the feel of a convertible without having one. Dropping the T-top and going for a drive up the canyon is one of the joys of my life. The back hatch is handy for shopping trips, it's easy to unload at home. I love the curves of the car, it's a fine looking automobile. The temperature control is great, set the temp you want and it takes care of the rest. It gets twenty MPG in the city, so it's pretty good.

This beautiful car will nickel and dime you to death, be prepared. It only uses premium gas, a lower octane won't work. The engine barely runs on regular gas, don't even attempt it. It has to have platinum spark plugs, the cheap ones don't work. Every oil change is pricey. It has back seats, but if your kids are over ten, it's going to be cramped. It's also so low to the ground, driving in more than two inches of snow is going to be an adventure. But, if you have extra cash, and want to look fantastic in traffic, this is your sports car.

1984 Nissan 300ZX - Classic example of old Japanese engineering

Have owned this car for five years, and between me and the one owner before me have driven it 140,000 miles. This car is in fantastic shape for its age. The transmission is still solid after only being touched up twice, once by me and once by an unknown repair company. Manual still shifts cleanly. No leaks in the T-top after all this time. Paint has stayed in good shape. Leather seats are solid with only one tiny rip in the passenger side. High quality plastics. Digital dash still lights up and works well. All the seals still hold. The engine has held up great. Still has a lot of kick left in it. Only had to repair it once. Belts still run nice, no rattling or jerking on the gearbox. Shows the typical wear and tear signs but only slightly. One of the downsides is that manual transmissi... (more)

Driving with my buddy down the toll roads at night. Digital dash makes for a great aesthetic. Manual transmission while more involved than automatic is much more fun.

Very fast both with the V6 engine and the gear shifting. Sound design of the dash icons is great no jarring annoying sounds. Seats are comfortable. Very solid design strength.

Outdated radio. Digital dash can go out easier than regular analog dash. T-tops can leak fairly easily. Engine bay is a little tight and can be difficult to work in, especially for a novice.

1984 Nissan 300ZX - The 1984 Nissan 300ZX, Nissan's Fairlady

The 300ZX was the last hurrah in a long line of Nissan and Datsun designs. The embodiment of the '80s and its "sports car for the common man" slogan. I bought my 1984 Z31 brand new, and after owning it for two weeks I knew I would never end up selling the car. Over its 32 year lifetime I've rebuilt the transmission and replaced many a water pump, starter, timing belt, and alternator. Most would count those as consumable parts, and rightly so. I've never had any major issue with the engine or drive train, and the vehicle has fantastic aftermarket support. I've been driving this car daily in all seasons but winter. The interior is what you'd expect from a 1980s sports car, nothing fancy, but definitely comfortable. Nowadays the youth like to tear out the innards and reupholster in leath... (more)

I used to whip my Z31 around at drift meets with stock and aftermarket suspension. The Z31 I had could go toe to toe with all but the professional drift Datsuns from the 60s and 70s. I would give my left foot to relive those glory days.

•Most issues with the stock model can be resolved with aftermarket parts •Better handling than past models (In my opinion) •Better acceleration and BHP over past Nissan/Datsuns (stock) •Fantastic looking cockpit •Beat out the second generation RX7 and 944 of the era •Tons of aftermarket support •Lots of online resources •Comfy car to drift around other Hondas •Turns heads

•Very Electronic •VG engines REQUIRE (do not skip this) a timing belt adjustment at 55k mi and a replacement at 100k mi •Watch out for rust if you drive in the winter above the "Mason-Dixon" Line •Suspension can suffer from "lifting" oversteer •If you aren't careful you might wrap it around a telephone pole
