300zx Twin Turbo; 27k Miles / 2 Owner Car; 5 Speed; T-tops - Like New Condition on 2040-cars
Ozone Park, New York, United States
|
I
bought this one owner car (I am the second owner) with 18k miles
three years ago. Needless to say the car is in exceptional condition
for its age - the interior looks and smells new, all electronics work
including ABS, AC, adjustable suspension and 4 wheel steering. The body
is straight and the red paint is original and shiny.
Given the car's age, my previous experience with a low mileage non-turbo Z, and my intention to use it as a reliable weekend driver, I went ahead and completed all scheduled and preventive maintenance: - 30k mile service which included timing belt replacement (this is very important on Z's since broken belts lead to the loss of an engine) and new cam cover gaskets -~$2.5k job - New Brembo rotors (front) and Hawk pads (front and back) - ~$0.5k - New fuel lines, fuel filter and fuel dampener (due to heat soak and old age fuel lines have been know to crack in Zs) - New battery - New brake master cylinder and clutch slave cylinder (replaced due to the risk of rubber o-rings in the cylinders failing from old age) - New Eagle F1 tires - $1.2k (less than 300 miles on these) - Upgraded tension rods with Energy Suspension bushings - Fluids (transmission oil, brake and and coolant fluids) While the 300zx was a car ahead of its time when new, I decided to make a couple of upgrades to address a few weak spots and take advantage of the technological progress since the 90's. All upgrades were made using high quality branded parts. Performance: - Dual cone intake with Selin electronic translator (allows the ECU to properly read two MAF input signals) - $0.5k - Stillen charge pipes - Upsized aluminum Z1 intercoolers - $0.5k - New 740cc Nismo injectors - (injectors were ~$1k; this is an upgrade vs. 370cc stock injectors; replacement is highly recommended since the original injectors were not designed for modern ethanol-blended fuels and fail over time) - 2.5in B&B polished stainless steel quad exhaust - $1.2k - 17in Senca wheels (in my view these work better vs. 18in since there is no need to lower the car and ruin the ride quality); The wheels have the perfect offset for the Z (no spacers needed) and were made in Japan by Kosei - $1.2k - Upgraded ECU - Stillen anti-sway bars (front and back) - improves handling - $0.4k Convenience / Appearance - Upgraded stereo system with new head unit equipped with iPod and Bluetooth (Cell Phone) connectivity; Speakers were upgraded at the same time, but BOSE enclosures were retained, preserving the nice bass balance. - OEM Japanese-market taillights - OEM Japanese-market nose panel with the Z logo The car was never raced or abused. I used it mostly for weekend getaways. It is fast, but manageable and handles nicely - tight and controllable. I have the owners manual, three keys (including the titanium key), a copy of the old title as well as receipts from oil changes showing mileage. In addition, I have receipts for maintenance work / upgrades. I also have a CarFax report showing the history prior to my ownership.

Nissan Safari police truck a sort of A-Team van from Japan
Wed, 28 May 2014Television today might be at one the best points in the medium's history with shows like Mad Men, Louie, True Detective and streaming offerings like House of Cards. However, none of those come close to the number of car chases and explosions of '70s and '80s offerings like Charlie's Angels, The A-Team or The Dukes of Hazard. Apparently, this prevalence of action at the time wasn't just an American phenomenon. In Japan, a show called Seibu Keisatsu fulfilled the nation's need for shootouts and stunts.
Nissan was a major sponsor of the show, and therefore the brand's vehicles were used extensively, including a highly modified Nissan Safari SUV (also known as the Nissan Patrol), pictured above. In the show's lore, it was equipped with radar, a camera and a fire extinguisher capable of turning over a car. The series ran 236 episodes from 1979 to 1984, and with the trailer below as indication, that allowed time for plenty of car jumps and explosions.
The entire Seibu Keisatsu series is now coming out in Japan on DVD and Blu-Ray packed in a fake gun case. The trailer below shows off some of the action of the series. It all starts out normal enough, but about a minute into the video there are all sorts of Nissans jumping and crashing. Plus, there is a guy on fire in a shootout. This show looks like some seriously cheesy fun. Scroll down to get a taste of it.

Nissan-Renault mule teases mysterious subcompact
Tue, Sep 8 2015There's always something intriguing about a mystery, especially of the automotive kind, and that's exactly what we have here. Our spies recently spotted this Nissan-Renault test mule on the road in Southern Europe. But what, exactly, are they testing? From the front end, it's clear this mule started life as a Nissan Versa Note, but check it out in profile to see the cut down rear doors. They're significantly shorter than on the production car, and the wheelbase isn't as long here, either. The tacked on fender flares suggest a wider track than stock, too. Making things even more complicated is the bizarre cladding this subcompact hatch is wearing. The odd tumors on the hood and blistered side panels indicate that the automaker is trying to keep the design underneath a secret. Given Renault and Nissan's tight relationship, it also isn't clear which company is testing this model. While the body comes from the Note, this one is wearing French license plates. According to our spies, the vehicle was also spotted leaving a Renault testing location. There are some possibilities, though. Renault already has the new Twingo out, and the next-gen Megane has an imminent release. The French brand could now be at work on a future Clio. Alternatively, Nissan is reportedly using the Sway concept as inspiration for the upcoming Micra, and we could be getting a preview here. Give us your best guess in Comments. Related Video:
