Message I am selling my 1990 2+2 300zx in Platinum Silver that has been converted to a TwinTurbo. Virtually everything that goes in the engine bay is brand new: sensors, wiring, hoses, etc. The motor in the car has been completely rebuilt from top to bottom and sounds good. The car hasn’t even been broken in yet since the rebuild and all of the new parts were installed. Yes that’s right, all of the performance parts that I have added to the car besides the cat-back exhaust have less than 1000 miles on them. The reason the car hasn’t been broken in is because I bought used turbos to put on the car to just get the car running and tweaked and all of the bugs worked out before I continued modding. Well, those used turbos were not what I thought they were and they immediately began smoking, which wasn’t that bad at first but after a few hundred miles haven gotten horrible. So, with the purchase of this car you will be undertaking a sort of project or finishing up my project with your choice of parts.

Problems with the car:
• The turbos need replaced immediately, they are smoking horrible.
• The car is running rich and bogging down at certain RPMs, I have talked to several people and it seems it just needs some tuning. This can’t or at least shouldn’t be done until the turbos are replaced.
• Front J-spec front fascia is cracking a little it bit in certain corners. The paint shop didn’t add enough or the proper amount of substance to the paint that makes the paint more flexible to deal with the bending of the urethane.
• There is a dent in the driver’s side rocker panel that I have talked to a body shop and they said it would be ok to simply pull it out a little bit and put side skirts over the top, which was my plan.


What the car has to offer for show:

• 18” Kazera KZ-A wheels wrapped in Kumho Ecsta 710(?) tires. (They have only been driven on the 500 or so miles that I have put on since the build)
• Kaixen HID headlights
• J-Spec Front Fascia
• Tinted windows
• J-spec red stitched Shift knob, boot, and e-brake boot
• Fake J-spec taillights
• 90-93 spoiler
• The whole car has been repainted about 2 years ago.

What the car has to offer for go:

Fully Rebuilt engine w/ JE pistons and Eagle H-Beam Rods
Howe Radiator
Stillen cat-back exhaust
2.5" testpipes
2.5" split flange downpipes
JWT pop-charger
ASP underdrive pulley
All EGR, PRVR, etc has been deleted
Z1 oil cooler kit
Triple gauge pod (not hooked up yet but includes water temp, oil temp, boost gauge)
Greddy Profec B spec II EBC
Greddy Auto Turbo Timer
TT fuel pump
Z1 ECU remapped
Turbo X’s RFL BOVs
Z1 1-piece driveshaft
6-puck RPS Clutch
OEM Wiring Harness

There are probably many other things I forgot and I didn’t mention all of the OEM parts that have been replaced. Once again, the car is extremely clean and the interior is near flawless except for the common driver’s seat side bolster wear but no tears. The chassis has a little over 100k miles and most to all of the parts listed are less than 1000 miles old. I live in the Chicago area, about 50 miles South to be exact. I am offering this car for sale to give someone a chance to complete this project to their liking w/ their choice of turbos and the ability to own one hell of a street/show car for half of what you were if you bought one already finished. I am taking offers…If this car does not sell by the time I need it to I will be replacing the turbos and getting it tuned and fixing all of the little nagging details and relisting the price accordingly. My loss and lack of determination to finish my project is your gain.

If you have any questions or want pictures please email me and I will respond ASAP. I am open to any reasonable offers. I am also looking to buy a DD, preferably an B5 Audi S4 or newer A4 but I am looking for something fun to drive but practical and reliable. Maybe we can work out a trade plus cash either way.
