New member here. 300zx driver.

Well, let's cut to it. I am here to sell my wheels but need 50 posts so I figured this would be a good palce to start. I do not drive an Evo. I was referred here by some members on zilvia.net since you gyus use the same size wheels I am selling on the track. They are also for sale on evotuners.net. I like Evo's, just don't own one.

I drive an Aztec red 1990 300zx TT. I'll post a pic or two so you can all flame me cuz it's heavy, and old, and slow, and a ***** to work on.

I've pulled the engine 3 times in the past 2 years. The last time, by myself, on jack stands, in 6 hours (includes dropping the tranny by myself, too).



When I first got it:




As it stands now:

wow nice z, that is amazing -- it's 20 years old and still looks that good. I sold my 96 n/a a long time ago. It was as slow as it was pretty. Fairlady, indeed.

Thanks, Bebonham. I love this car but man is it expensive to upkeep since it's 20 years old. Fortunately, I have replaced pretty much everything on this car. Only thing stock is the motor, for the most part.

Oh man, the 90-96 300zx's are such awesome cars. My dad had a pearl white 90TT and he regrets selling it everyday. You car looks super clean too. Not a fan of working on them tho haha. I worked on one at my old shop and uggh it was a pain. Customer wanted all new injectors. That was a long week lol.

Most Z32 owners hate Z31's but I love them. Esp when they are clean and done right.

Well, my car has been down since the end of august for a number of reasons. A boost leak turned into replacing the pass side turbo, turned into replacing all 6 injectors, turned into FINALLY getting her started again yesterday afternoon. But the rain set in so I could not get the fascia and splash sheild on. So, she's still in the air until Wednesday when I can get a few hours to put the body parts back on. I'll have pics once completed.
