For sale is a 1990 300ZX Twin Turbo T-Top car that was dealer optioned and sent to Richard Straman Coachworks in Costa Mesa for a convertible conversion. There were a total of 69 cars reportedly converted and 1990 and 1991 by Straman, of those only 44 were factory twin turbo. This is a super rare 300zx, one of those 44.

I had the car painted to match my last 300zx, 1991 factory pearl white when I got it, It's currently got ~108k Miles (I've put a little over 30k of those miles onto the car).

Brake Upgrades: 300 degree master cylinder brace, The Brake Man Big Brake Kit, The Brake Man Street pads (F+R)
Intake Cooling: AshSpec "Massive" Intercoolers, TDM 2.5" IC piping, Z1 upgraded throttle bodies

Wheels/Tires: Nissan 18" 350z track wheels w/Nitto NT-05s

120K service has already been completed, Tensioners/Water Pump/ All rubber replaced ~10k miles ago. New engine harness was installed when motor was out for Turbo upgrade. Mains (crank bearings) were inspected when motor was out, they look perfect. Car put down 444RWHP/441RWTQ on 91 octane at SZ at 17PSI -- has never been tuned for Q16, but should put down ~580RWHP/RWTQ (over 700hp at the crank) when tuned for this fuel level. Hydraulic lines from Straman were replaced by custom stainless/braided high pressure lines. Should be good for life.

Has been my daily driver for years, so it has scratches and dings that reflect that. But still a beautiful rare 300zx. Has mild stereo work done, removable Sub in trunk in the spare tire well, door speakers have been replaced, stereo has been replaced.

The bads -- A/C needs work, stopped working a year or so ago, takes a charge, then stops working after a week or so. Heater core needs to be replaced, have the new core already (New Nissan part), have not yet installed. Paint could use some touch up here and there. 1 fender does not perfectly match (see images), there are some scratches and nicks. The top is the original top from Straman. We had it re-died when the body work was done and the car was painted. It still keeps out the water & wind, but is getting pretty tired & should be considered that it will need to be replaced eventually.

This car has been maintained at Specialty-Z since I purchased it, all oil changes (Royal Purple full synthetic), and 99.9% of the work done. This car starts every time & is amazing to drive. I want it to go to a home where someone will love it just as much if not more than I have. Asking $11k or serious offer. Way more invested. Test drives will be only honored for those with the cash & valid drivers license. Yes, the car has a clean, clear title.
