Evening folks, originally joined here years ago looking for z32 but was unsuccessful and now I’m back after a number of yrs of Supra ownership, just can’t shake that 300 itch! Can anyone tell me what the current average prices are I’m to expect looking for a TT manual, good overall condition preferably 92 onwards. Many thanks. Brian. Out of curiosity anyone know the budget to import one?

Hello, I've been restoring a Celica gt4 Carlos Sainz over the past few years and shes all but done , ready to take on a new project, a friend of mine had a uk zed in white a long long time ago, I was always double jealous, but I couldnt afford the running costs let alone the car , now 20 years later, depreciation and a better job means I can look at taking one on. I don't want a garage queen and I'm not afraid of hard work, but I want a manual tt 2+2 to rebuild , modify and keep. Pass on to the kids if we can still have petrol cars in 10 years. I've spotted the black on one ebay, but £4500 and having sat for 18 years? So every seal will have dried up, probs need…

I can't believe that I have been an owner since 2006, I must be old!! I have signed back up again, but it is not for good things this time. I have tried my best to hold on to my beloved for as long as I can, but work and kids have me at the point where I know that I am never going to get the time (and money) I need to put it back on the road. I hate to do it, and I have resisted for a very long time, but a "For Sale" add will be coming soon. :crying: Alex.

So, I've been on here since a long while, not really contributed very much short of the occasional sarcastic remark. I used to have a lovely Z32 TT manual - wasn't much to look at, but was very nippy and extremely clean (rust wise). Cost me the grand sum of £1500 plus a few hundred on mods, back when bargains were easy to come by. Pretty sure I sold it for just over £1k. Now, a few months ago I came across this one, being sold by @Pete54 from the same location as my old one, AND in the same colour. I just had to go and see it. Admittedly it needs a little care (welding) underneath and on a few locations on the body, but it's the car I wanted and it's getting harder a…

Hi guys I’m a first time owner and newbie to the 300zx world. I have previously and still spend a lot of time with old VWs and Mercedes. I have just recently found an import 1993 Twin Turbo LWB with only 23k miles on the clock. I intend to freshen it up a bit but not really modify it beyond a set of quality coilovers and era correct wheels. I take delivery of the car on Saturday and will post up some pictures once I’ve given it a full DA session and detail. Looking forward to ownership and speaking with you all.

I was a member well over 10 years ago now. I decided to join again in search for another 300ZX LWB NA . I really miss mine. I remember the Scotland club pub meets, and going to meet up with a few members down south. I had the Devon chip and oh how I miss those days. Hope to catch up. Jon

Good morning, Just a short thread to introduce myself and my Z. Myself: My name is Kevin, 26 years old, born and raised in Switzerland (in the french-speaking region) with both parents portuguese. Brainwashed by the Fast and Furious franchise, I have always been a Nissan fanboy, from the Pulsars to the S14s and obviously the almighty Skylines. I am currently still student, doing my master in Science of Engineering (Materials, Production and Manufacturing) but I am already working part-time as a Research assistant in Additive Manufacturing. My 300ZX: I bought my 300ZX Twin Turbo 5 speed 2+2 in 2012, back when I was 21 after several summer holidays spent…

Hi all, I'm a longterm Z31 owner (still have one) and have also had a few other Japanese cars over the years, amongst German stuff and classic British stuff... also into bikes. The Z32 is now retro enough to tickle my fancy and is a JDM legend in my opinion... so I picked up a semi broken manual TT to play with: https://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?190299-Risk-it-for-a-biscuit-bought-a-potentially-broken-Z Although it's broken, I cant help myself and have started doing the fun stuff; wheels, spoiler, steering wheel, etc I'm in Weybridge, Surrey, if anyone's about that way. ??

Hi All Just picked this little beauty up today. Previously owned by Dbiagioni1 Car drove beautiful and smooth for the 2hr 30mins journey back home, doesn't feel like a 28 year old car at all. Tucked up in the garage tonight before it comes out again tomorrow for another drive to get used to the car. Seriously don't want to get out of this thing. Glad to finally have a 300 after 10 years of liking these and 3 months looking round. Thanks to Jimmer for giving me the heads up on this one as well and thanks to David for building one hell of a car! Some pictures that were used in the sales advert due to it being dark when I got home today. Thank…

Hi folks, I’ve just picked up this 1995 TT Manual 2+2 fresh import from Japan. I’m now waiting on the DVLA for the registration. I’ve jumped in after doing abit of research so I hope I’ve bought a peach not a lemon. It will need abit of work but that’s expected on a 23 year old car. I’ll be looking forward to future help and advice. Here’s a quick pic. Thanks, Mart

No Fairlady as of yet. I have a Soarer and my missus wants a slicktop auto TT and the hunt in Japan was on until...I lost my job. Anyway, I'm going to lurk around here and learn as much as possible before my luck turns for the better and we can carry on the search. Look forward to benefiting from the wisdom here.

Hey there everybody! Finally got a hold of a 1992 300zx. It's a manual, TT, 2+2, 41k miles, and imported from Japan. Originally bought it to gift it to my pops since it has been his favorite car since release. I'm keeping it now since I assume it will need tons of money dumped into it (will post the backstory underneath). Hope to learn from everybody here and enjoy the beauty of this car with everyone :lol: Backstory:Bought this car last March on a weekend. Coming monday, I was told I was deploying in a couple weeks, so I was rushing focusing on leaving and finding a place to garage the 300zx. Did all that, deployed, returned, and decided to start putting money into …

Hi there, So my thinking is that the Australian delivered Nissan 300ZX ( NoTurbo) is not that different from the UK version. We both sit in the original Jap side of the car... ☺ I have owned my Zed for several years but it has long periods of time being parked due to unforseen issues that make her unpleasant to drive. She felt great when drove her out of the used car lot and after joining a forum and being advised to check and replace the parts on the 200,000 km list, I bought a kit and went to a local mechanic who told me "we have worked on a few of these before" so I gave them the kit and the upgraded Gates blue racing belt. Got the car back and she runs…
