I sold my black zx twin turbo roughly three years ago and regretted it ever since, had 280Z with a turbo swap in the meantime but there's something about the z32 that attracts me. So about four weeks ago I took a chance, bought a one way ticket to stockholm and picked up a bone stock 91 TT 2+2 with 85000km's on the clock, full history and a bucketload of receipts and stuff.

Not mint but with a little tlc it'll get there. First I had to recolor the bolsters on the seat, they where pretty worn and white. Managed to get it black again with swissvax leather color and products.

The outside is suffering from a lot of stone chips on the hood and nose panel, the plastic under front windshield is pretty worn so I'm gonna get that painted soon with plastic paint. Then there's the rear wing which has deteriorated and since it's red the paint had started to fade a little especially on the plastic bumpers.

Two days of detailing and the paint is looking good again! Managed to hide/camouflage some of the chipping but eventually I will get the nose panel, hood and rear hatch repainted.

Time to pay some taxes to the state... :( You can also see the textured paint on the lower part of the car is pretty faded along with holograms and swirls on the fenders and rear hatch...

Then I took a ferry trip across the Oslofjord enroute to the biggest Datsun/Nissan meet in Norway in Kristiansand, look at how small the Z looks behind that skoda

Clocked in over 800kms in one stint on that drive from stockholm to kristiansand and the ZX performed flawlessly, such a tourer!

That was friday, saturday was the big meet, made some new friends. These are rare cars here in Norway so always great when you meet others!

Plans for this car now is first to get it registered here in Norway. Then deal with the rear hatch and spoiler(still undecided if going with the oem wing or the newer 99 spec one)

Want some nicer wheels either bbs lm wheels in gold (expensive!) or the enkei rpf1(because racecar)

JDM indicators and foglights.

Gonna do some bolt on engine upgrades as my previous one had some work done and this actually feels sluggish compared to that one :P

Lower it.

Gotta love a red Zed. Looks great. :)

These cars are starting to look quite small now in the company of the modern car. See Ferry pic, looks tiny behind that Skoda!

Thanks. Yesterday I had it approved by the "dmv" so now all I have to do is pay a one time tax to get it registered.

I also jacked it up trying to service the front brakes but the right side rotor is too warped so they need to be swapped, also the pads because they dust like hell!

Not the easiest car to jack up

Also I crawled underneath to check how bad it would hurt to change the downpipes without removing the transmission and that's when I found a drop of transmission oil underneath, it seems to be coming from the side somewhere so does anyone know what places that could leak on the side and top? The speed sensor is one but what else is there?
