1986 Nissan 300ZX-

This is a very nice car that belongs to a good friend of one of our clients. He has owned it for over 10 years, has recently retired and is making some adjustments in his life. One of those adjustments necessitates selling his well preserved 300ZX.

We recently replaced the driveshaft with a new unit including new U-joints. We also replaced the valve cover gaskets and oil sending unit. We gave the car a good look over and couldn't find anything else serious that it needs. On the test drive we did find that the front struts are bouncy but that's it. The car drives smoothly, doesn't pull left or right and brakes evenly. The clutch engages exactly where you would expect and the engine revs freely without any strange noises or fuss. It has excellent power. The Air Conditioning works very well too. The engine does not smoke and there are no unusual noises. Following is a link to a great place to buy new KYB front struts for $32.79 each:

This car has Michelin tires with a lot of tread and the lack of any vibration when driving belies the quality Michelin continues to deliver with their tires. All the glass is in good condition, the windows roll up and down as they should. The T-tops are excellent too. All doors, releases and latches work as they should. All interior and exterior lights work and the headlamps raise and lower properly.

While the car is quite presentable as it sits, there are some simple things you could do yourself to really make the most of her. The driver's door panel has some small cuts at the top (see pictures) but those panels are available used here on Ebay for not much money. The rear carpeting is faded and could stand to be replaced and the steering wheel is showing a little age, another easy fix. Lastly, the car has been resprayed on the RF fender and right door at some point in the past due, apparently to some past parking lot shunt (There are no signs of damage to any inner structures.), so it could stand being re-done as the paint used must not have been up to Nissan standards. While that is being done, I would have the fronts of the side view mirrors resprayed as well. The current owner is afraid that if he did these simple repairs, he might not be willing to part with her, so these things will be left to the lucky winning bidder.

Except for the very sparse surface rust present in a couple of places, there is no rust through and the car is extremely solid. Here is a link to a Photo Bucket album that shows many more pictures including some of her underside:

The front seats are excellent. The cushioning is ample, they are multi-adjustable and the upholstery has no tears or rips. The dash has no cracks, all the gauges work and give positive feedback (Temperature runs normal and excellent oil pressure) and all the other interior panels are great.

I wouldn't hesitate to get in this car and drive it to California, its that good. Thank you for looking at this auction! Please let me know if you have any further questions or require any specific pictures.

Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

Nobody does cars on the cheap quite like the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The former part of the equation already has its Dacia brand of cost-effective, no-frills vehicles that have become a favorite of Top Gear co-host James May, and last summer, the latter revived its Datsun nameplate for a budget brand of its own.
The reborn Datsun launched in India this past July with its Go hatchback, returned in September with the Go+ minivan and revealed the Redi-Go concept just last month. And now it's given us our first look at an upcoming budget sedan developed specifically for the Russian market.
The as-yet unnamed vehicle (which we'll bet will incorporate the word "go" into its nameplate somehow) is set to debut on April 4, where it will launch the Datsun brand in Russia. Few details are available at this point, but the low-cost sedan was designed in Japan to offer Russian drivers "an engaging driving experience, peace of mind ownership and accessibility at the right and transparent price, with a competitive Total Cost of Ownership."

Renault and Nissan are among the businesses affected by massive ransomeware attack

Sun, May 14 2017

SINGAPORE/TORONTO, May 14 (Reuters) - Technical staff scrambled on Sunday to patch computers and restore infected ones, amid fears that the ransomware worm that stopped car factories, hospitals, shops and schools could wreak fresh havoc on Monday when employees log back on. Cybersecurity experts said the spread of the virus dubbed WannaCry - "ransomware" which locked up more than 200,000 computers - had slowed, but the respite might only be brief. New versions of the worm are expected, they said, and the extent of the damage from Friday's attack remains unclear. Infected computers appear to largely be out-of-date devices that organizations deemed not worth the price of upgrading or, in some cases, machines involved in manufacturing or hospital functions that proved too difficult to patch without possibly disrupting crucial operations, security experts said. Marin Ivezic, cybersecurity partner at PwC, said that some clients had been "working around the clock since the story broke" to restore systems and install software updates, or patches, or restore systems from backups. Microsoft released patches last month and on Friday to fix a vulnerability that allowed the worm to spread across networks, a rare and powerful feature that caused infections to surge on Friday. Code for exploiting that bug, which is known as "Eternal Blue," was released on the internet in March by a hacking group known as the Shadow Brokers. The group claimed it was stolen from a repository of National Security Agency hacking tools. The agency has not responded to requests for comment. Hong Kong-based Ivezic said that the ransomware was forcing some more "mature" clients affected by the worm to abandon their usual cautious testing of patches "to do unscheduled downtime and urgent patching, which is causing some inconvenience." He declined to identify which clients had been affected. The head of the European Union police agency said on Sunday the cyber assault hit 200,000 victims in at least 150 countries and that number will grow when people return to work on Monday. "The global reach is unprecedented ... and those victims, many of those will be businesses, including large corporations," Europol Director Rob Wainwright told Britain's ITV. "At the moment, we are in the face of an escalating threat. The numbers are going up, I am worried about how the numbers will continue to grow when people go to work and turn (on) their machines on Monday morning." MONDAY MORNING RUSH?

2014 Nissan Versa Note

Fri, 28 Jun 2013

Incredible Value Has Trouble Winning Hearts
How important is vehicle sticker price? How imperative is fuel economy? What about passenger room and technology?
Nissan is hoping that consumers find all four objective measurements significant, because the all-new 2014 Versa Note excels in each of those areas. Not only does the five-door deliver the most competitive pricing, but it provides best-in-class combined fuel economy and best-in-class total interior volume. And the new model offers a full range of innovative technology, including available navigation and the automaker's impressive Around-View monitor to ease parking.
