1991 Nissan 300zx Twin Turbo

Hi all.

Pretty new here, but thought I'd post up some photos of my pearl white Z32 TT.

I've done quite a lot to what was already a very clean/straight Z32. New paint + rock-effect removal, updated parts such as the new rear lights and spoiler from the series 5 model, but I've kept the rest pretty much how Nissan intended as it's an attractive coupe with flowing lines. A full rebuilt engine and suspension, new wheels and a custom 2-tone leather interior.

I don't use this car that much. It's a summer only dry weather car, but I use it on trips into Europe.

I also had it photographed at Beaulieu Motor museum studios as it was used by 'Japanese Performance' on their 6-page buyers guide.

Anyway, here you go. Hope you like.

very nice matey, if i had one of these i would do the same as you, none of these gash bodykits!

That's probably the best looking 300ZX I've seen! So many get trashed with tacky mods, this one is just clean, simple and effective. Great work!

beautifully and simply done

very nice ,really refreshing to see one that hasn't been spoiled with loads of tat

[ChrisT]

that looks absolutely spot on, really nice

Thanks guys! I like original bodywork. Not a fan of bodykits in the slightest. The engine's been played with a bit as well. I've changed the fuel map on it and cranked up the boost to 1 bar. Should be running @ circa 380bhp. So it's great fun to drive.

I have a TT Z32 as well. I've seen you on the club forum.

I use mine almost daily, it's nowhere near as nice as yours but I do love it.

I've been considering selling mine on, but seeing yours makes me want to keep it and fix it proper. (Been thinking of shipping it down to Jeff's and just telling him to 'sort' it as I'm not sure there're many outfits round these parts that'd be comfortable working on it.)

I'm not a fan of bodykitted Zeds either, I don't think I've ever seen a nice one, (or at least appeals to me), TBH.

Yeah, Zworld are pretty good. I recognise your username. I see also you must have a Monza judging by your signature. Another real favourite of mine. I had contemplated buying a GSE and trying to source a Lotus Carlton Engine and running gear for one. Never did it though.

[bigrod]

Yeah, I've got two Monzas although I'm kidding myself on with one of them and it'll be weighed in as soon as I can extricate it from it's current resting place.

Not entirely sure what to do with the one I'm keeping. I have a number of options in stock, (3.0 carb, 3,0 FI, 3.0 FI race tuned or a 3.0 24v), but I'm actually fancying bunging an LS1 in it.

It needs welding back together first though!

That is a lovely ZX. Have a soft spot for these. My first outing in a "fast car" was in one of these, the driver drove it like he stole it.
