Yea, it's a pretty young crowd. I'm 26 and there are a lot of younger people out there than me.

I should be out there Thursday night, after 9pm.

Cool deal, do you have any pics of the 350 floating around?

w0rM · 07-18-2012, 01:50 PM

It's nothing compared to some of the Zs I've seen around BR but it wasn't too bad. I had it lowered on GF210s. I had an Motordyne MRVE2, 5/16 plenum spacer, JWT Pop Charger, spacers on the stock wheels, custom leather seats, a Tommy Kaira Shift Knob and a few other little things.

KaienZ34 · 07-18-2012, 02:21 PM

Nice, i like all the Z'z.

w0rM · 07-18-2012, 07:44 PM

Thank you sir... me too. I've been a fan since all the way back to the 240z.

I'm trying to get a friend's 300ZX TT from him. The trubo's need to be changed but other than that it's in great shape.

Damn... that would be SWEET! I still love the look of those cars. My girlfriend had one back in the day. She was hot but her car was hotter. lol

KaienZ34 · 07-18-2012, 07:55 PM

Hahahaha, that's funny. I would just replace the turbo's with some rebuilt stock style ones from z1 or something. I'm just looking for a nice DD car nothing crazy so i'm hoping it won't cost a ton to get it back up to par.

Francis - BIG CAUTION on the 300ZXTT: It is big bucks to fix the turbos, I know - I had one and did two turbo jobs on it to the tune of $6K Total with stock rebuilt turbos... Mechanics hated to work on it, and it was difficult to even find one who wanted to... This is why I made the painful decision to sell my baby in '05, and that is why I SO appreciate the 370 being naturally aspirated. I do not think I'll ever want to be in a Turbo vehicle again, as much fun to drive and feel that huge kick (when the turbos engage... it was like launching out in the Space Shuttle, when we had one...) But, the piggy bank was taking a big hit, and she had to go

It can be a DD, but at some point, you're gonna need a big piggy bank when the time comes.

You can see pictures of my 300ZXTT in my picture albums...

w0rM · 07-18-2012, 08:01 PM

It shouldn't be too bad. Should be a fun project if you've got the time.

KaienZ34 · 07-19-2012, 10:35 AM

Yeah it does take a while for custom wheels to come in.

KaienZ34 · 07-19-2012, 10:42 AM

It i had the tools i'd be able to get most of it done myself.
