SOLD: 1990 300zxTwin Turbo....
 

this is the wife's toy for the past 12 years.. as i stated, this car has a new motor that was built by a 300zx shop in VA and has upgraded parts from front to back.. i think since we have built the motor we have only driven it 6500 miles.. the motor was built about 5 to 6 years ago.. the body has about 146K on it.. if you have ANY questions please drop my a line..











this car is QUICK and handles amazingly.. asking price is 12K..

Mike, that car is BEAUTIFUL. One of cleanest 300ZX's I've seen.

I may be confused. Does this year have the all wheel steering? I'm guessing it passes smog here in CA just fine. What about power numbers, and numbers from the strip if any, etc. Is it an auto/manual? I'm not in the market myself, but I know somebody who might be interested.

yes it does have rear wheel steering, and it still works :).. most owners take it off due to weight, but i love how the car feels when your in the turn and hit 35mph+.. the car has high flow stillen cats and it passed but i think due to the age of the cats i don't they will anymore.. if not i have a hook up :).

i never really dyno the car but i think she is about 350rwhp on 91 at low boost (around 13psi).. with higher boost and better gas it should hit over 400rwhp.. it's a 5 speed with a stillen clutch package and light weight flywheel..

the car did run back home on street tires around 12.7s,, i haven't raced it out here.. she is truely a street / road corse car..

anyone know someone that is looking for a nice play toy?????

I've been asking around. People express interest, but no one is in pull the trigger mode. Maybe it'll be different after the election. Looks like a fantastic value to me; I'm sure it'll sell but might take a little while til the right buyer pops up. :thumbs_up:

haven't been on the board for some time.. sorry about that guys.. also had some stuff done to the ZX.. New tires all the way around and polished the rims.. also the front nose is getting painted sometime this week to clean up some stone chips it had..

lower right hand corner under the fog light.. it's nice have a friend that paints :), should only take 2 days..





fronts.


out back.. 555 drags :)




these damn chrome center caps costed 60 bucks.. they are not made anymore.

Does your friend the painter ever do cash jobs for guys who had their car painted at a reputable shop 2x after a minor accident and the painted part still doesn't match the rest of the car? If so I know a guy who could use his information :bigthumbsup:

Cash always talks.. my friend has been in busy for almost 20 years i think in the same location.. he is the ONLY person i let paint ANY of my cars or bikes. he painted and fender rolled my Grand National..

Would you mind PMing me his information or shop address when you get a chance? I found out the hard way it's REALLY difficult to find a good painter.

is this rwd or awd? i thought they where awd but u stated rwhp.

i was in the market for these a while ago and there where so many configurations and lingo terms i got confused :-( lol

i'm having problems sending you a PM, His name it Bob (owner) at 562-857-3565

RWD is the only way 300zx's came (non turbo & turbo).. the Twin Turbo models came with all wheel steering..

there was a 2+2 non turbo.. it was a 4 seater..
there was a 2 seat non turbo hard top with cloth.. not a lot of those.
then there is the Twin Turbo.. they came in 5 speed and auto's. i also saw one with cloth interior, super low numbers with that option..

FYI, you can go to a User's page, for Example, Sean's, and you'll see a link right up at the top "Send a private message to SeanPlunk".

Clicking on a User Name in the forums doesn't work as it should. It's in our ToDo list.

just looked at the mileage, and we have only placed a little over 800 miles in 7 months.. can someone take this car off our hands and DRIVE IT :)

deal pending.. should be with the new owner in 2 weeks or so..

Glad to hear you could move it. It's a great deal. If I wasn't full up on toys I would've been very interested. One was on our recent cruise and it was cool. :bigthumbsup:

can you explain the all wheel steering? I have my own thought as to what that actually is, but i'd like clarification.

The system on the 300ZX was called HICAS (hydraulic) or superHICAS (electric) depending on the year.

thank you fine sir.. the Z's had HICAS on them..

Hey are you going to be out at Fontana on Nov 2nd.. i'm running my CBR for the first time :)

Yep. I'll be running the Vette.

Also Looked up information on the allwheel steering, what an interesting concept! It's kind of how I thought it'd be but wasn't really sure if it'd work or not. apparently there are quite a few cars today that are utilizing this same idea
