Message	One NA with a spun rod, one TT (Although I kept the engine for my next build) Nothing wrong with parting out a car, it is the owners property and decision after all. In my case for both, I had other projects to work on and the Z's (Which at the time of both I had owned multiple) weren't my priority. And I did make more money parting them out than I could have by selling them outright both times. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 1992 300ZX NA 5 Sp (Dead) 1990 300ZX NA Auto 2+2 (Dead) 1990 300ZX TT 5 Sp (Est. 400 HP) 1990 300ZX TT 5 Sp (Est. 600 HP) 2004 G35 Sport 6MT (DD)
