Up for sale is my pride and joy. It breaks my heart that I have to list this car for sale, but having just recently bought a house and a new winter vehicle, and about to have a baby I find myself in serious need of some money. That being said, up for sale is my 1991 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo, 5-speed, 135,000 miles, a very rare car in New England. I have put a ton of work and money into this car in the 6 years I've owned it. It runs strong and handles like its on rails. All the work during my ownership was done by me, a former Nissan certified technician, so it's all done right. 

Maintenance work I've done:

-new alternator
-new upgraded silicone PCV hoses and IACV hoses
-new power steering rack
-several new fuel injectors
-tires on the car are Nitto NT555 Extreme ZRs and have less than 1000 miles on them


Upgrades I've done (the fun part):
-new Pioneer head unit DEH-P9400BH, with bluetooth
-new front door speakers by Kicker
-new rear panel speakers by Infinity
-old Sony Xplod 800w amp and 12 inch sub in box that came out of my old car
-hardwired radar detector, turns on with the car
-HKS type 0 turbo timer, hidden in plain sight
-car color matched shift and parking brake boots
-Vitek Performance diamond plate floor mats
^I would like to mention that even with all of this inside the car, it still retains a very factory appearance internally^
-HKS Twin Power DLI ignition booster, hardwired into engine harness
-Stillen pop-charger with K&N air filter

-EGR delete
-AIV delete
-Fuel rail bypass
-Water line bypass


The Bad:
The only thing the car really needs is a good polish, the paint in certain spots is a little tired or dull, but a good polish will bring it right back. Also its not painfully in need of a new front bumper, but the bumper is cracked along the lower half, it has been semi repaired. The only other issue is a small tear in the drivers seat from where my belt loops rub getting in. Car has a salvage title, but shows no evidence of ever having been in an accident. That's pretty much all that's wrong with the car though.


I have poured my heart and soul into this car, and now its time for me to let it go. My loss is your gain. I have paperwork and receipts for probably 95% of the parts to back up this entire ad. I also have tons of extra parts and a Stillen car cover that are included with the car. I have never added up my receipts, but I have probably put $10,000 in just parts into this car. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, especially since I'm sure there are things I left out that I can't think of right now. Thanks for looking.

About 20k Nissan Pathfinder, Infiniti JX models recalled for potentially faulty brakes

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for the 2013 Nissan Pathfinder and 2013 Infiniti JX due to a problem with the front brakes. The problem is a result of the brake torque member (a part that attaches the brake caliper to the front suspension), which was cast improperly with a structural weakness that could possibly lead to "reduced braking, increasing the risk of a crash," according to NHTSA. How, you ask? If the part breaks, the brake caliper could move position and possibly make contact with the wheel.
Around 20,000 of these sister crossovers are being recalled, but it doesn't sound like all were equipped with the faulty component. Dealers will inspect vehicles built between December 3, 2012 and January 29, 2013, and replace components from the defective batch. The recall goes into effect next month, but until then, the official recall notice is posted below with information for how owners can contact Nissan.

Nissan Leaf battery cells put through torture test, live to charge again

Sun, Mar 2 2014

One minor chink in the armor of the Tesla Model S is that a small number have caught fire, once their battery packs were penetrated. Nissan Leaf drivers, however, might just be able to weather such an event without an ensuing CarBQ. Our evidence for such a claim? A video that has surfaced of cells from a Leaf pack undergoing a battery of torture tests (pun somewhat-ashamedly intended). Shared by folks at the Hybrid Auto Center in Las Vegas – who offer for sale, among other things, used Leaf lithium battery modules – the footage shows salvaged cells being brutally assaulted with a screwdriver, and later, a propane torch. Granted, these tests are not the same thing as flinging a piece of metal into a working pack at 70 miles per hour, but they do claim to show that a puncture does not always equal a fire. Oh, and don't try this at home. When pierced through by the flat head tool, there is no explosion or eruption of flame. Instead, a rather modest wisp of smoke shyly emerges as the electrolyte next to the shorted area of the fully-charged foil pouch reacts with the influx of oxygen. Again and again, the blade descends, until the cell is riddled with holes. No fire. Amazingly, when connected with a voltmeter afterward there are still plenty of signs of life, and when it is charged and discharged (off-camera), it reportedly suffers only a slight loss of charge capacity. The video goes on to show another cell attacked with open flame with similar results. While the demonstration is, perhaps, somewhat crude, the message it sends is loud and clear: lithium batteries can be safe and rather robust, despite some freak accidents.

Nissan executive Jun Seki resigns to become president of Nidec

Tue, Dec 24 2019

YOKOHAMA, Japan — The executive tasked with leading a recovery at Nissan said he had decided to resign just weeks into his new job, a move that could disrupt the automaker's push to turn the corner on scandal and slumping sales. Jun Seki, Nissan's vice chief operating officer and a former contender for chief executive, told Reuters he was leaving to become the president of Nidec, a Kyoto-based manufacturer of automotive components and precision motors. He will likely depart in January after three decades at Nissan, including a stint heading its China business. "I love Nissan and I feel bad about leaving the turnaround work unfinished, but I am 58 years old, and this is an offer I could not refuse. It's probably my last chance to lead a company too," he said in a brief interview. "It's not about money. In fact, I will take a financial hit since Nissan pays us well," Seki said. He declined to elaborate further. Nissan and Nidec declined to comment. Seeking to roll back some of the costly expansion under ousted chairman Carlos Ghosn, Nissan has embarked on wide-ranging turnaround plan. That plan, which began in April, is now on track to generate a cumulative few hundred billion yen in cost cuts and operational efficiency gains by the year to March 2022, according to two Nissan sources who spoke on condition of anonymity. One hundred billion yen is roughly equal to $915 million (707 million pounds). Adding to concerns about disruption among Nissan's top management, the sources said that Seki, Chief Operating Officer Ashwani Gupta and Chief Executive Makoto Uchida have so far failed to gel as a team after being named to their posts in October. They officially took over on Dec. 1. "There was no instant, cohesive chemistry achieved by those appointments," one of the sources said. Gupta and Uchida were not immediately available for comment. Seki's resignation could further complicate Nissan's relationship with top shareholder Renault SA. Seki recently worked in Paris for a year and was seen as relatively close to the French automaker. PERSUADED IN THE END Asked if he was leaving Nissan because he was passed over for the role of chief executive, Seki said that was not the case but did not elaborate. He and Uchida, most recently the head of the China business, had been seen as top contenders for the CEO job. Reuters reported in September that Uchida was seen as more favored by Renault.
