I am the fourth owner of this Nissan 300ZX Turbo. I bought it with 72,128 miles on it. The car is originally from Florida, it came to Virginia via second owner in April of 2002 at 46,700 miles. This owner only kept the car two months and 750 miles before selling it to the third owner who lived in Maryland. This owner kept the car until I purchased it in February of 2011. I have met the two owners prior to me and they are great people who cared for the car greatly. The car now has 88,009 miles on it, and I have documentation from the previous owner from his purchase in July 2002 to my purchase of it on dealer receipts, aftermarket parts receipts, labor, and a dated log of these parts and their installs, as long as any problems along the way. Many order forms, receipts, transfer papers, Carfax from 2002, manuals, instructions, and tons of other misc. pieces of paper come in this stack that date back to the second owner in some cases and many parts that have come and gone on it. You could spend hours just looking through the cars paper trail of history.

The car has always had its oil changes kept up, using Valvoline 10w-30 Full Synthetic, and only Nissan oil filters. The Carfax is clean but reports a mileage inconsistency on August 27, 1998 where a emissions station misreported the mileage.

The Z has a new Nissan factory wire harness and the timing belt was done at 59,715 miles.

The car is Nissan color code DN1 Cobalt Green Metallic. It is equipped with keyless entry, though the remote stopped working recently. Interior is model 1995 300ZX black suede in great shape, the interior color was originally tan (The second owners stated reason for keeping it such a short period of time, sold it for one with black interior) This is why the non-factory amp cover is still tan.

Vehicle is mildly modified, below is a list of what you get already installed in the car:

Redline MT90 Manual Trans Fluid
Redline 75w90 rear differential fuid

Car will come with a box of 10 old style Nissan "60U" oil filters that are generally considered to be superior to the newer "65F" Nissan filter.
Car has new T-Top seals on it.
Advan VS5 wheels in gray, 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 with 255/35/18 and 285/30/18 Sumitomo HTR-ZIII tires (They have decent tread on them still, but won't hold traction well for some reason)
Stainless steel brake lines

NGK Iridium spark plugs
Robo Grounding net kit
Nismo 615cc injectors
Selin Dual Maf Translator (Gives each turbo intake its own air flow sensor for more power and response)
Specialty Z 3" Expansion turbo "Down pipes"
Specialty Z 3" to 2.5" Resonated "Test pipes" They flare down towards the end
2.5" B&B Quad Oval Exhaust(Generally considered the best looking exhaust for the Z32)
Greddy side mount Intercoolers
RPS Segmented Flywheel
RPS 6 Puck Clutch
Jim Wolf Tech chipped ECU
Unorthodox Racing Pulley set
Blitz SBC ID boost controller (Set at ~15 psi of boost pressure)
Short Throw shifter by "Silvertwin" from twinturbo.net
Stillen upgraded oil cooler
One piece aluminum drive shaft

Catz HID conversion
Blue LED lighting installed in gauge cluster and control pods

Jspec front fascia with Jspec turn Signals and Tail Lamps
Jspec black with red stitching shift knob, boot, and e brake boot with seats done in the same pattern.

Stillen Sway Bars
Power Trix coilovers (6k/8k spring rates) (As a lot of coilovers do, they tend to squeak on occasion)
Power Trix rear Upper Control Arms
Megan Adjustable Upper control Arms
Do-luck rear ladder bar
Aluminum Subframe spacers
Carbing Fr and Rr strut bars (Rear is not on the car but comes with it, didn't want to cut the new interior to install at the time)
Energy Suspension Steering rack bushings

The suspension mods have rendered it a pretty stiff ride, but it is not unbearable.
With the above engine modifications I can NOT and will NOT guarantee it passing any emissions testing. I do not know if it does or does not as we do not have the tests in this area!

It has a Sony Gigapanel head unit that can be removed and hooked to a computer for MP3 loading. Car also comes equipped with a Kicker 5 channel amplifier, crossovers in the doors for 6.5" speakers and tweeters, 6.5" rear speakers and subwoofer. 6.5" speakers are MB Quartz component speakers.  (Sorry, I don't know a lot about the sound system other than it sounds fantastic inside the car, there wasn't much documentation on it that I got with the car)

The interior picture shows the right control pod face to be loose, this was corrected after the picture was taken and is no longer like that.

Buyer is overall responsible for getting the car to them, but I would be more than happy to help where I can. It has been a great car, and I will do what I can to make sure it goes safely to its new home. Car is being sold AS IS  with no warranty either written or expressed. I have described the car to the best of my ability and knowledge, feel free to contact me with any questions!

2024 New York International Auto Show not-so-mega photo gallery

Fri, Mar 29 2024

The 2024 New York Auto Show press preview is in the bag and the public show has begun, and that means only one thing: Our work here is done. But really, we've been done since about mid-morning on Wednesday. As you'll see from the paltry selection of galleries below, the 2024 New York Auto Show wasn't much of one. And what there was? Well, in a word, it was Hyundai.  As you scroll through the galleries below, you'll note that we have items from essentially two global conglomerates. In one corner, there's Hyundai, Genesis and Kia. In the other, we have Nissan and Infiniti. But that's being a bit generous to Nissan and its luxury subsidiary, because while this is the first chance we really had to see the Nissan Kicks and Infiniti QX80 in person (and that's not even entirely true of the latter), they weren't actually revealed at the show.  New York has never been America's biggest "international" auto show, but it has been the venue for some big unveilings. In 2012, the new SRT Viper debuted to great fanfare at NYIAS; the Lincoln Aviator made a big splash in 2018; how about the Alfa Romeo 4C in 2014? And those are just cherry-picking from the past decade. By comparison, the 2024 show feels a bit uninspired. Yes, we would have liked to have seen some Vipers. Sue us.  But we'll stop dwelling on what we can't resurrect. There's plenty to see at the show this year if you're planning to go in person, so don't let our negativity deter you. For those who can't be there, here's what you're missing: Genesis G80 Magma View 9 Photos 2025 Genesis G80 Magma Genesis GV60 Magma Concept View 10 Photos 2025 Genesis GV60 Magma 2025 Hyundai Tucson XRT View 14 Photos 2025 Hyundai Tucson 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz XRT View 11 Photos 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz InfinitiQX80-Z63-051 View 39 Photos 2025 Infiniti QX80 2025 Kia K4 Live View 7 Photos 2025 Kia K4 Sedan 2025 Nissan Kicks View 10 Photos 2025 Nissan Kicks     New York Auto Show Genesis Hyundai Infiniti Kia Nissan

Nissan, Kia under investigation over occupant detection systems

Fri, Sep 4 2015

Kia and Nissan are facing separate investigations by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration because of alleged problems with the occupant detection systems in their vehicles' airbags. The larger investigation is NHTSA's new engineering analysis into 986,826 Nissan and Infiniti vehicles. They include the 2013 Nissan NV200 and 2013-2014 Altima, Leaf, Pathfinder, and Sentra. Among the Infinitis, there are the 2013 JX35 and 2014 Q50 and QX60. Owners allege the occupant classification system can misidentify passengers and turn off the airbag if they don't weigh enough. Nissan recalled over a million vehicles worldwide last year to fix the same problem with a software update, but NHTSA kept getting complaints about the issue after the repair. The agency opened a preliminary evaluation in March, and after 1,271 complaints it has now been updated to an engineering analysis. The Feds intend to evaluate the effectiveness of Nissan's solution. NHTSA is also opening a preliminary evaluation into the 2007-2009 Kia Spectra for the occupant classification not working properly, and it could affect an estimated 186,000 of these vehicles. The government agency has 43 complaints from people allegedly reporting the failures. According to NHTSA, the issue could result in the airbag not deploying with enough force or not activating at all in an accident. This investigation is meant to assess the scope of the potential flaw, and there's no recall yet. INVESTIGATION Subject : Occupant Classification System Fault Date Investigation Opened: SEP 01, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: PE15031 Component(s): AIR BAGS All Products Associated with this Investigation Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) KIA SPECTRA 2007-2009 Details Manufacturer: Kia Motors America SUMMARY: The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 43 complaints alleging a malfunction of the front passenger seat occupant classification system (OCS) in 2007-2009 Kia Spectra vehicles. The complaints report illumination of the SRS (air bag) warning light. All of the complaints allege the cause of the light illumination to be a malfunction of the OCS sensor mat imbedded in the passenger seat cushion, and/or report the presence of diagnostic trouble code B1448 which relates to the OCS sensor mat also. Many of the complaints note the malfunction occurred after the warranty period expired and mention high repair costs as a major deterrent to repairing the vehicle.

Autoblog fan favorite car ads from Super Bowl XLIX

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Super Bowl XLIX is in the books, and the New England Patriots emerged victorious. Of course, if you're like us, the big game wasn't so much about the battle between the east coast and west, so much as a fight between the world's automotive advertisers. We collected and collated all of last night's new ads and put them together for you to vote on. And yes, we're limiting this year's contest to last night's new features. That's why you aren't seeing Dodge's epic Wisdom among our collection of commercials, and it's a similar story with Chevrolet's Truck Guy Focus Group series, which highlights the new Colorado. You can still vote for your favorites. We won't be closing the voting on our Super Bowl page, so while the winners and losers are correct as of this writing, it's entirely possible that there could be some changes in the rankings as time goes on. So, without any further ado, here are the winning ads based on your voting. Nissan: With Dad Fiat: Ready For Action Jeep: Beautiful Lands BMW: Newfangled Idea Mercedes-Benz: Fable NASCAR: America Start Your Engines As for those ads that failed to impact you, loyal readers, Toyota was the absolute, undisputed loser. The Japanese brand ran four ads in total – two for Toyota and two for Lexus – and all of them have negative tallies as of this writing. Lexus' Make Some Noise and Lets Play and Toyota's One Bold Choice and My Bold Dad both had very weak showings among the commercials that aired, although they weren't alone. Neither Mazda nor Kia scored particularly well, despite featuring celebrity magic act Penn and Teller and former James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, respectively. Chevrolet was the winner of the losers, as of our writing, recording the fewest downvotes for its audience-punking The Big Game ad. If you want to take a second look at the losing ads, you can head back to our Super Bowl page for the complete collection. But for now, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the results.
