This is a Nissan 300zx N/A with a 5-speed, in black. I have owned this car for quite some time now and it is finally time to let her go. This is a great summer/weekend car, or a car ready for some track action if you are into that sort of thing. This car is extremely rare to see in this good of shape. Often they have a significant amount of mileage on them, or they have been tuned to a point where they cannot function properly. This car has been tuned, lightly, mostly the suspension. The car drives like a dream. The reason I got rid of the 300 was because I bought a 350z; but I have to say, the 300zx's handling is far far superior. Its predicable and grippy. It really is an absolute blast to drive

One of the best things about the car is the rarity. You never see the car anymore, and for that reason, it turns heads. People constantly stop and ask about the car, mostly because they have never seen one before, and because it truly is one of the most beautiful cars Nissan and Datsun every made. The body lines are timeless, and unlike other 90's cars, its looks have not gone out of style. With the car comes Nissan 350z Touring wheels, and the original premium alloys. 

The car has 113,555 miles on it and has never seen winter. 


Body:
Overall:
The body is in good shape for its age, however it does have some rust as I do live in New England (Vermont). Again, it has never seen winter, however there is some rust in the undercarriage and in the wheel well of the passenger side. I have had this looked at by a certified master body-technician and he has stated that it is completely treatable. As far as the paint goes, there is some minor hazing in the paint (I'm sure a professional buff can take it out) and some small surface scratches on the doors. The front end of the car has been repainted by the same body-tech.

Goodies:
-Stillen front lip
-Tinted Corners
-350z touring wheels!

Mechanical:

A couple of things that do not work:
E-Brake: This is a insanely common occurrence for this car. You probably won't find a Z with a functioning E-Brake. Many of them rip, and they rarely are replaced. I do, however, have the replacement E-Brake cables which will be included with the car.
Window: The drivers side window was replaced as the car was broken into before I had come to own the car (or may have just broken, I'm not entirely sure, I just know because I found the glass in the carpet). With that being said the window is there, and works, but doesn't work quite right. I've had it looked at half-a-dozen times and no one seems to know how to get it functioning just right.
Air-conditioning: it works; but the freon needs to be replaced. I have not replaced it myself... well, because I just take the T-Tops off. Never really needed it! 

Upgrades/Maintenance:
-Transmission has been replaced, as well as the clutch and flywheel, pilot bushings, and starter have as well
-Wiper Motor has been replaced
-Cooling systems and transmission fluid have been flushed; regularly
-Oil has been changed every 3000 miles; come with spare oil pan; Z's have a soft belly pan and are known to get obliterated on a pothole; luckily this has not happened to me
-Alignments have been done as necessary. 

Goodies
-Injen Cold Air Intake
-Tokico Illumina Shocks
-Eibach Sport Springs, with bump stops
-Stillen Sway Bars
-JWT High Pro Clutch
-Stillen Short Shifter
-Z1 1-Piece aluminum driveshaft
-SPL front upper control arms
-SPL V2 tension rods
-Stainless steel brake lines
-B&B high-flow cat-back exhaust- one of the best exhausts money can buy. It's truly awesome. The link below is my car with the exhaust.

Interior:
Probably the best thing about the car. It's interior really is in great shape. The car comes with its original mats, and it comes with the T-Top leather bags. No rips, tears or stains in the seats, or doors (satin). There is one small burn in the seat. No one has smoked in this car

If you have any questions please feel free to message me. I would give my number but I am a chef and I am at work 90% of the time I am awake. I will get back to you ASAP. Thanks! Happy Bidding!

Kayaba, Sumitomo to pay millions for price-fixing in US

Sat, Sep 19 2015

Kayaba Industry Co, which does business in the US as suspension parts maker KYB, and Sumitomo Electric Industries are facing payments in the millions to settle price-fixing cases about the components that they make. As part of the Department of Justice's ongoing crackdown of price fixing in the auto industry, KYB agreed to pay $62 million and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to set the cost of shock absorbers from the mid '90s through 2012. The company allegedly worked with co-conspirators to keep the cost of the parts high, and those components then made it into vehicles from Honda, Kawasaki, Nissan, Subaru, Suzuki, and Toyota. "Any collusive agreement among competitors to restrict price competition undercuts our free enterprise system and violates the law," said Carter M. Stewart, US Attorney of the Southern District of Ohio, in the DoJ's announcement. Over the past few years, the DoJ has brought cases against 37 parts suppliers and 55 executives, leading to over $2.6 billion in fines. The investigations haven't always been so successful – some of the Japanese execs fled from the US to avoid prosecution. Critics allege that price fixing is simply how business is done. According to Automotive News, Sumitomo Electric Industries is also facing a $50 million settlement in a civil lawsuit that's related to price fixing of parts like wiring harnesses and heater control panels. The plaintiffs include owners and dealers that purchased vehicles with these parts. The company asserts that the violations are from before 2010, and it now has different process in place to avoid further violations. KYB Agrees to Plead Guilty and Pay $62 Million Criminal Fine for Fixing Price of Shock Absorbers Kayaba Industry Co. Ltd., dba KYB Corporation (KYB) has agreed to plead guilty and to pay a $62 million criminal fine for its role in a conspiracy to fix the price of shock absorbers installed in cars and motorcycles sold to U.S. consumers. According to charges filed today, KYB conspired from the mid-1990s until 2012 to fix the prices of shock absorbers sold to Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. (manufacturer of Subaru vehicles), Honda Motor Co. Ltd., Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd., Nissan Motor Company Ltd., Suzuki Motor Corporation and Toyota Motor Company, including their subsidiaries in the United States.

2014 Nissan Rogue earns IIHS Top Safety Pick+ [w/videos]

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

The 2014 Nissan Rogue has scored a Top Safety Pick+ award following positive crash test results by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The new crossover scored good results (the highest rating) in the group's five crashworthiness checks and a basic rating for front crash prevention.
The IIHS found that the Rogue also performed well in its small overlap front test with a low risk of injuries, and the driver's space maintained its structure well. It was an improvement over the previous generation, which received a marginal rating in that evaluation. The Rogue's optional forward collision warning system was enough for a basic rating in avoiding accidents.
To qualify as a Top Safety Pick, a vehicle must earn good ratings in the the moderate overlap front, side, roof strength and head restraint evaluations, plus a good or acceptable result in the small overlap front test. To receive the additional Plus rating in 2014, it must also have a basic, advanced or superior rating for front crash prevention. The IIHS scores vehicles as good, acceptable, marginal or poor, and avoidance systems are scored basic, advanced or superior, depending on the type of system and its performance. Scroll down to watch the videos of the small and moderate overlap crash tests and read the full IIHS statement.

Nissan's autonomous cars could drive in US first, maybe by 2020

Fri, Jan 24 2014

Future shock could be just six short years away, and coming first to the US. Nissan says it might start making autonomous versions of its cars available in the US by 2020, before the tech hits the road in other countries. The Japanese automaker is in extensive discussions with regulators from California, the best-selling state for the Leaf battery-electric vehicle, for allowing self-driving vehicles to be on its roads, Hybrid Cars says, citing a conversation with Nissan executive Andy Christensen at the recent Detroit Auto Show. Many decisions need to be made between now and then, given the hurdles related to issues such as regulations, liability, safety and technology - and Christensen said the first wave of self-driving vehicles would be able to do their thing only on the highway. The vehicle of choice is most likely to be the Leaf because it's completely battery operated, making the conversion to autonomy that much easier. Last summer, Nissan chief Carlos Ghosn first promised production autonomous cars by 2020. The automaker has teamed up with MIT, Stanford, Oxford and others to extensively test its "Autonomous Drive" concepts since then. Late last year, Nissan tested a self-driving Leaf on Japanese public roads. Nissan is not alone promoting autonomous driving as a way to increase safety, fuel economy and traffic flow, just some of the reasons why the idea may be the wave of the nearer-than-we-thought-future. For example, the company says 93 percent of accidents are caused by driver error.
