Turbo was available on all years of 300ZX's (84-88 for the Z31 body style and 89-96 for Z32 body style, 89 was a gap year for the 300ZX in some markets I believe). Don't believe there is such a beast as a factory 350Z turbo. Only things I've seen have been aftermarket mod's and for whatever reason, I've seen 350Z's sporting aftermarket superchargers much more often than turbos. Cheers,

Sweet...

Timing is everything. This was posted yesterday. Act quick. http://www.zcar.com/forums/read/12/1818001

Yeah...but you look like the real deal...LMAO...Awesome pic!

Welcome aboard...this site could use a bit more estrogen if you ask me... You should be able to find all the info you need... Post some pictures! Cheers,

Just working on my Z....havin' a Bud...True...True... WAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

Hiya Luke. Welcome to the board...a wealth of knowlegde awaits...just about any question you have, you will find the answer here...and from time to time, the odd ridiculous thread on politics, Z's from around the world or breasts (it's out there...)... Have fun. Mike A.

First one is a joke... Second one is bizarre. Thought it was 2 cars (purple/red?). I like the way it "smiles" at you though... $3,000 in the engine? Still looks like a Nissan L6...stroker? Or has the price of an MSD/Accel combo gone through the roof in the last 6 months...

No photo...but mine came with 2 speedo's and 2 tach's...could do 320 MPH and rev to 16,000....SUPER ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Sweet. Congratulations.

I've had a few friendly offers of the kind... It pays to keep your eyes on Craigslist & Kijiji...got these with almost new rubber (worth $400+) for $425. Life is good sometimes...

Vintage Chowini Racing wheels from a Hayashi Racing mold. Shot is while they were still on PO's 280Z not my 240Z.

Simply great shots...

That's bloody cool...

Darn tempting...but you are so far away...

I wish I still lived in sunny Fla...

I second Jason's thought. I have re-directed most of the members of my club here...anything you need to know short of insane engine swaps is here (and a few of those just might be too...). Welcome to the club.

Ah yes...Hind Lick, California...

It's initial listing had one bid on $26k that did not meet reserve. It was re-listed with a "buy it now" of $28k and the listing was cut short as I assume it sold locally. I would call the dealership and see if they could help you with the sale price as a comparable. Ebay is tough as it only searches back 1 month in completed listings... Sorry to hear about your loss, but at least it sounds like everyone made it out o.k. Look forward to seeing pictures of the Z. Good luck. Mike A.

Come on...rent, borrow, or steal... Someone has to have a Z31 sitting in their backyard somewhere...

Well the topic certainly got me to do a double take... And I haven't mentioned it before but the Jello avatar takes the cake...I have more DK on my I-Pod than I care to admit...pretty sure that goes over the head of 95% of our forum mates...

I was born in June, 1971 (a month after my current Z was manufactured). I knew immediately it was my destiny to have a Z... Actually, it was 1988 and I was living in Ottawa. A buddy from my part-time job bought a '72 240Z in Montreal and needed someone to drive it back as he didn't know how to drive stick yet (my luck). An awesome 2 hr run on highway 417. The growl the car had in second gear stuck with me and I was hooked...

Congrats Wingz...exciting as hell. Post photo's asap.

The thing is the value of individual parts will always add up to more than the value of car (unless a really valuable VIN # is in the equation). I wouldn't get too hung up on the dash, that's how all these parts cars are marketed (if the dash is decent). Fair question is, with the next $1200 (and that sounds high, most 240 dashes which I've been watching are $600-800) you have to spend on the car, would you put in into the dash or something else (mine next set of funds will be body/paint & brake upgrades). Spending $1200 on a dash for a car whose resale likely wouldn't be much more than $10k if near perfect doesn't make sense unless you are competing in concours shows. $3500 is fine if it won't take much to get it on the road. Have fun,

Actually a timely note. Had two of my professional photographer friends (one does rock bands, the other product shots for magazines) up to the house today and their industry has gone totally digital. The functionality of digital and the elimination of the time spent developing simply outweighs any possible appeal of film. Mind you the camera the one brought was worth $7,500...could have bought a Z....
