Message I bought this beautiful 1990 300zx Twin Turbo in the summer of '04 and have enjoyed every minute of it. The car has approx.. 117,000 miles on it and is running like the day it was purchased. When I bought the car, my goal was to have everything replaced as most professional as possible. Practically everything was replaced under the hood within the first 2 weeks of ownership, with brand new OEM parts. Nissan of Austin Tx. pulled the motor, ran compression tests, and did all of the work. I then drove the car home, here in Torrance, Ca where is has been since. Later that year the transmission was completely rebuilt and the snycros were replaced along with a resurfaced flywheel and a RPS turbo sport clutch which holds the power perfectly. Three months later, I had the 120k mile service performed at a local Z specialist and again had many things not replaced before changed out. I can pretty much say that the car runs like new. Thousands have been invested into this car and many receipts can show it. I have babied the car and even changed the oil every 2,000 miles just to insure that the car ran and tip-top performance.

$14,418 in receipts (few missing but one call to my shops can show records) plus the price of the car, and not including price of any mods:
-$6460.03 @ Nissan
-new belts
-every hose replaced (vacuum, water, fuel)
-all new gaskets (head gasket included)
-new harnesses
-all new injectors
-Spark plugs (including a set of uninstalled Denso Iridium)
-120k mile service done 8k miles ago (~$3,000 water pump, timing belt, motor pulled, etc) @ Z-world in Redondo Beach, Ca
*rebuilt transmission ($2700 + resurfaced flywheel, new syncros, etc) @ A-Line Transmission in Wilmington, Ca
-professional alignment and tie rods replaced
-records of fluid changes

The car is very fast for not having any motor work. I have taken it to the dragstrip a couple of times and ran high twelves @~112 and that was before the boost controller and an average launch. With subframe spacers, dif mounts installed, and some slicks and the car can easily run low low 12's. Kills include s/c cobras, Ferrari Modena, and cl55 amg, and other fast cars.

Mods include (over $12,000 Invested):
Stillen side mount intercoolers $1050
Stillen silicon boost hoses $220
Ashspec ECU, tuned accordingly $250
Apexi twin chamber blow off valves $300

All of the mods were purchased online, bought through paypal and my bank account; I can get some kind of receipt. The interior of the car is in great condition. Everything is in pretty much perfect condition; leather seats have hardly any wear and they are probably the nicest ones I have ever seen on especially on a '90. No cracks of any kind, on the dash and no fades anywhere. Carpet is in perfect and I have an extra sets of floor mats. The trunk cover works great, but the plastic on the outer case has started to crack a little and the center counsel has a few cracks under the tweed. Other than that nothing is flawed. The exterior as well is in great shape as well. For a car of this age, the paint is really nice. Original pearl white paint, with the rock protection still on the bottom of the side and rear. There are a few chips on the passenger side fender and lower part of the door. No real dents or large dings anywhere. The car has the very rare escort racing from bumper on it. I had this put on about 3 weeks ago, and while getting a new tire, the mech crashed the front into a lift. The damage isnt that bad (as you can see in the pics) but since the company has insurance a new bumper of the buyer's choice will be included (or discount of the total price).

I have over 26k invested into this car (not including the price I originally paid). I do understand that I could have had this work all done cheaper, but I wanted everything to be done right. I am asking a firm $15,500. I am open for trades (must be worth the car, or include cash to make it so), just make an offer.
