Got me a new (to me) car too!

[iceman601]

1991 Nissan 300zx NA Slicktop.....just recently picked it up from a friend who had it sitting in his backyard for over a year and a half. It was covered up with dirt, grime, and spider webs all over the under carriage. It has 190,000 miles but still runs pretty darn strong and good....plans are to go twin turbo :P

First car wash in 1.5 years, it shined up pretty good...all that grease marks on the floor was from fighting the alternator.


Dirty engine bay after I brushed out the spider webs


After a couple cans of engine cleaner


Rusted out oem exhaust


Swapped it out for an aftermarket one....Looks loud but its not


After a full detail and wax

Nice! my roomie has a pearl white '93. FUN car!

I always liked the Z cars. Prolly dating myself, but I remember when the 240Zs were introduced....that would be back in the 1970's for you whipper-snappers.

Did you get a good deal?

[iceman601]

Yup....it was a deal I couldn't resist, so far I'm a little over 1k in as she sits now. I originally wanted a MKIV Supra but the thought of paying over 10k for a 16+ year car

haha just put out a fire in a white one last night, at the offramp by my house, the guy was just frozen and didn't know what to do.....

I think its time for me to get rid of the GTI and get something more fun!

Looks sweet dude!
I am sure is going to be sick just like the 4Runner once your done with it.

My friends caught fire while we were driving in it about month ago too!


How soon are you looking to do the twin turbo swap? We're doing it on one of my friend's car and it ain't cheap...
