Up for sale is my beautiful 1990 Nissan 300ZX 2+2 automatic. This is a wonderful car that is a blast to drive and gets looks everywhere I go. I hate to sell it but a new pair of twins in my life means that priorities have to change.

A brief history of the car: The car was purchased from the original owner in 1998 from my Wife’s uncle. He passed it down to my brother in-law in 2005. Unfortunately my wife’s uncle did not take very good care of the car’s engine which forced my brother in-law to correct a few issues. He decided to replace the engine with a JDM spec motor in an attempt to have two engines to work with if needed. At the same time the car would be gone through and anything that needed attention would be addressed. My brother in-law owned a custom car shop at the time and all of the work was performed professionally in his shop. At the time of the engine swap the car had just over 90K miles. In the summer of 2006 the engine was replaced with an engine pulled from the front clip of a similar year JDM Fairlady Z. The JDM motor had approximately 50-60K miles on it. During the swap the new engine received a complete major tune-up along with several major service items. Below is a list of all items and services performed during the engine swap:

50-60K miles JDM NA engine swap
Timing belt replacement
Cam shaft oil seal replacement
new water pump
new power steering pump and pressure hose
PVC valve
new platinum spark plugs
new plug wires
6 new fuel injectors
new motor mounts
new exhaust header installed

After the engine swap the plan for the car was to turn the car into a period correct 90s custom. The following parts were also installed on the car:

Set of staggered width IMPUL RS 16” wheels with new tires
Full Tokico HP Blue Shock/Strut replacement
Eibach Pro Kit suspension springs
Complete Energy Suspension bushing set
Greddy SP2 stainless cat back exhaust system
Custom intake kit
OBX stainless steel headers
Drilled and Slotted rotors with carbon ceramic performance brake pads

In addition to the performance parts several other items have also been addressed:

New weather strip around windows
new floor mats
New CD/MP3 player with 4 new speakers
recharged A/C system (blows ice cold)

As of 10/2013 the car now also has a completely rebuilt transmission. The tranny was the last item on the powertrain that needed addressed when my brother in-law had the car and it went out last month. I had a transmission specialist completely rebuild the tranny (new clutch pack, gears, everything) to the tune of $2500. The car now runs, sounds, and drives amazing.

With all of the powertrain and chassis items sorted out the only thing left is the body which unfortunately I cannot afford to update right now. The body is in really good condition as is but a paint job would make the car absolutely perfect. There a few small dings here and there and the front bumper has a few scuffs. The paint is original and shows pretty good for a 20+ year old car. As you can see from the pictures the car looks great and can certainly be driven as is. The interior is also in great shape. Everything except for the radio is original and again shows really well for the age. All gauges, A/C, lights, power windows, and locks work as they should.

I tried to cover everything I can think of about the car. My family has babied this car over the years and it shows. All it needs now is a new owner to enjoy this awesome sports car.

2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross vs. small crossover SUVs: How they compare on paper

Fri, Feb 23 2018

In the midst of the crossover SUV boom, each traditional size segment has become saturated. As a result, automakers are beginning to fill the gaps that separate classes, giving us some interesting in-between options. The all-new 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross jumps right into one of those in-between categories bookended by compact and subcompact crossovers. It's a niche that offers more space and feature content than the smallest vehicles, with an extra dose of style and a lower price than bigger ones. Because of the Eclipse Cross' in-between nature, though, there's not really an obvious direct competitor. As such, we've selected a diverse group of small crossovers that are similar to the Eclipse Cross in some but not all key areas: size, price, feature content, style and likely buyers. The 2018 Subaru Crosstrek, 2018 Toyota C-HR and 2018 Nissan Rogue Sport each have elements in common, but are different enough to provide useful points of comparison. A chart of specifications and key standard features is shown below, followed by more in-depth analysis. And if you wish to compare these crossovers with others not listed, be sure to check out our comparison tools. Engines and Drivetrains One of the Eclipse Cross' biggest advantages in this segment will be its engine. Subcompact crossovers, including the other three we've chosen, are sluggish to say the least. This new Mitsubishi should be different as it packs a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder that belts out a whopping 184 pound-feet of torque. We say whopping, because the C-HR, Crosstrek and Rogue Sport all have between 139 and 147 pound-feet. Horsepower is similarly unimpressive at just 152 horsepower - the same as the Crosstrek - but that torque should make passing and on-ramp runs much more satisfying. The appeal of crossovers for many people is the availability of all-wheel-drive, and this is where the Subaru gets an advantage. Like with all Subarus that aren't a BRZ, the Crosstrek has standard all-wheel drive. The Mitsubishi comes close, making all-wheel drive standard on every trim level except the very base ES trim level. On the Rogue Sport, all-wheel drive is an option on all trim levels. Depending on where you live, though, being able to have front drive on a high-trim crossover could be a plus because it will save some money and improve fuel economy. The C-HR loses this battle as it's only available with front-wheel drive.

Watch this mobility scooter drag race a Nissan Skyline with surprising results

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

Okay, so we may not be talking about a classic, all-conquering Nissan Skyline GT-R here. But the sub-Godzilla-trim Nissan Skyline GTS-T is still a car, after all. And, as a car, if someone asked you to lay a bet on it versus a mobility scooter (Hoveround, Rascal, you know the type) in a drag race, you'd probably take that action.
Unless, of course, that drag race were happening on YouTube, in which case you'd put your money away and open up your laptop. On the Internet it's best to never bet against the wild underdog.
We don't mean to spoil the following video for you, but come on. When you saw Skyline vs. Scooter in that headline, you had a pretty good idea of what was to come, didn't you. Needless to say, mobility scooters fitted with Suzuki GSX-600F engines are pretty quick. Strap in and scroll down.
