The color is Silverstone (WV2) from the 350Z (car was originally silver). It was painted by a highly skilled and meticulous painter in an extremely nice downdraft paint booth. The top of the car has also been painted black - along with the pillars between the side windows and quarter windows as well as the T-Top Bar. The employees of Z1 Motorsports said it was one of the nicest paint jobs on a 300zx they had ever seen. Unfortunately, there was a mishap when trailering the car and damage occurred to the nose. Upon sale I can provide the contact information of the painter. Also the driver's side door is slightly out of alignment. New driver's side door hinges will come with the car.

This car was built by my father, a master technician at Nissan for over 18 years. He has also built several other performance 300ZX cars. However, the last motor rebuild was done by Custom Concept Motorsports when i redesigned their website. This car was converted from an Automatic to a 5 Speed. The car was originally a Twin Turbo. As with the paint, Z1 Motorsports commented on how well everything was put together.

After the last round of upgrades were installed and the motor was broken in properly, I took it to Z1 Motorsports where it was tuned and dynoed. There is a low tune and a high tune as detailed below. The tune in the car now is very safe. Z1 had the low tune set at 520hp, but I asked them to dial it back to 500 instead of trying to get the maximum amount of power possible. Therefore, you should be able to have fun driving this car without having to worry about damaging the motor. I also have instructions from Z1 Motorsports about how to set things up for 100 octane fuel. Motor has ~5k miles on it now.

  • Low Tune: Pump Gas with 10% ethanol at 16psi makes right under 500 (497whp) - Low Tune ECU Chip
  • High Tune: C16 at 26psi makes just over 650 (652whp) - High Tune ECU Chip

The car is kept in my garage, and while I don't have every receipt, I do have most - espically the more recent ones. The car has not been smoked in, and the interior is in great shape. The seats, steering wheel, shifter, shifter boot, and e-brake boot are all new with red stitching. The radio has been replaced with the Alpine W-927HD unit. This is the new Double DIN unit with bluetooth phone and navigation. There is also a backup camera installed with the radio as well. Also installed is an Apline type-R 10" subwoofer in a z-enclosure box with custom bracket so it does not slide around in the back. Power locks were added and there are two remotes. There are no issues with the transmission or any other part of the drive train and the A/C works great. The car does need a new clutch, and there is a very slight power steering leak.

Nissan's Kelly examined at Japanese hospital after securing bail

Wed, Dec 26 2018

TOKYO — Nissan director Greg Kelly was being examined in a hospital on Wednesday, a source said, a day after he was released on bail from a Tokyo jail where his former boss Carlos Ghosn is still being detained. Kelly, an American who was released late on Christmas Day after more than a month in detention, has been charged with conspiring to under-report Ghosn's income. He posted bail of 70 million yen ($640,000). Their Nov. 19 arrests jolted the global car industry and has strained Nissan's alliance with French car maker Renault SA. Nissan's board last month fired Ghosn as chairman and Kelly as representative director, although both men technically still remain board members who can only be removed by shareholders. Kelly suffers from spinal stenosis, causing numbness, tingling and shooting pain in his extremities, according to a video message last week from his wife, Dee Kelly, appealing for his release. The condition compresses or pinches the spinal cord. Those symptoms worsened during his five weeks in the Tokyo Detention Center, his wife said, citing Kelly's lawyer. Kelly was scheduled to have surgery on Dec. 7 in Nashville, Tennessee, but flew to Japan last month after being told that he was needed in person at a board meeting, Dee Kelly said in the video. Kelly was arrested soon after his arrival. Under the conditions of his bail, Kelly is barred from traveling overseas and his residence must be restricted to a designated place, the Tokyo District Court said. Lawyers say that travel exceptions can be made on a case-by-case basis. Kelly walked out of the detention center around 10:45 pm (1345 GMT) Thursday night wearing a light-colored jacket and was whisked away in a black taxi. Japanese media showed footage of Kelly entering a hospital around midnight. After his release from detention, Kelly issued a statement through his lawyer saying he had not falsified any documents and looked forward to restoring his honor in court. "I believe my innocence will be revealed in the trial," he said. Kelly also said in the statement he wanted to see a doctor immediately and get the appropriate treatment or operation originally scheduled for early December. The office of his lawyer, Yoichi Kitamura, did not respond to requests for comment. Ghosn was re-arrested on Friday based on suspicions that around October 2008 he shifted personal trades to Nissan to make it responsible for 1.85 billion yen ($16.6 million) in appraisal losses, prosecutors said.

Recharge Wrap-up: Nissan 'No Charge' in Denver, A123 doubles

Wed, Jun 3 2015

Nissan has introduced its "No Charge To Charge" program in Denver, Colorado. As of June 2, customers who buy their new Nissan Leaf from certified dealers in the metro Denver area will get two years of free charging. Denver is the 16th market to offer "No Charge To Charge," with a total of at least 25 US markets scheduled to offer the program by the end of the year. "EV charging infrastructure continues to grow in Denver," says Nissan EV Sales and Marketing Director Andrew Speaker, "and access to free public charging for new Leaf buyers helps make owning an all-electric vehicle even more cost-effective and convenient." Read more in the press release below. Wanxiang is investing $200 million in A123 Systems in order to double its lithium-ion battery production. The combined capacity of its three production facilities in Michigan, Hangzhou, China and Changzhou, China will increase from 750 megawatt-hours to 1.5 gigawatt-hours in the next three years. The increased capacity will help support customers building hybrids, passenger EVs, and commercial vehicles. Included in the expansion is the capacity to build 12-volt starter batteries and 48-volt microhybrid systems. "It's been a tremendous turnaround," says A123 CEO Jason Forcier, referring to the company's 2012 bankruptcy. Forcier also says the company is already planning another expansion when this one is complete. Read more at Automotive News, and in the press release from A123. The Royal Hashemite Court of Jordan is ordering 150 Zoe EVs from Renault. King Abdullah II of Jordan signed an agreement with Renault, who will deliver the cars by the end of the year. The cars will be powered completely by solar energy generated on royal property. The order of the 150 Zoes is the largest since 2013, and makes Renault the largest provider for Jordan's royal EV fleet. Renault says that further EV orders are already being discussed. Read more in the press release from Renault-Nissan. Beijing, China will exempt electric vehicles from its limits to vehicles on roads during rush hour. Current policy, designed to help alleviate traffic and air pollution, restricts cars with even and odd license plates from rush hour traffic on alternating days. The exemption for EVs runs from June 1, 2015 until April 10, 2016. It is the newest in the list of perks meant to encourage EV adoption, despite the troublesome lack of charging infrastructure.

Watch Nissan's autonomous Leaf in action

Sun, 06 Oct 2013

Getting its semi-autonomous Leaf legalized in Japan was just the first step. Now, Nissan is giving demonstrations of what its fully autonomous car is capable of at this year's Combined Exhibition of Advanced Technologies (CEATEC) show - Japan's equivalent to America's Consumer Electronics Show. To show off the possibilities of its technologies, Nissan had an oval track set up at the show giving rides in an autonomous Leaf to the media. Even Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn and Toyota CEO Akio Toyodo caught a ride.
Nissan has since released a couple videos of its CEATEC demos, with one designed to look like a news report. In this video, you can watch the car go around the track and navigate intersections and road hazards. The second video shows Ghosn riding in the car, and he hints that Nissan's goal of having an autonomous vehicle in production by 2020 might be more of a worst-case scenario. Watch both videos and read through Nissan's official press release below.
