Hi all.

 

Just thought i would introduce myself on the forum. I may be spending a long time on here in the near future!

 

Haven't managed to obtain a 300zx as yet, but it's very close to happening. I have to sell a few things first. I currently have a half restored classic mini, and a Seat Leon Cupra r (daily). I'm also in the process of preparing my house to sell and move on to somewhere more suited ( a garage is my deal breaker, wife wants a conservatory).

 

A 300zx had been a child hood dream car of mine, and I still think they are awesome. I'm going to buy cheap (ish) and think big power figures once the chassis has been taken care of. Currently weighing up either a cheap N/A and convert or make it easier on myself by spending more on a TT. Checking out UK companies to supply me with parts and how difficult/easy parts will be to obtain for particular models. Obviously depends on what comes up at the time! I certainly won't be spending ££££'s, a tatty barn find would be preferable ;)

 

Thanks for reading, hoping for a swift turn around and get started!

Hi and welcome Stu...:cool:

 

You'll find plenty of help and advice on here - along with a few good traders who can source parts for a 300zx.

 

And if it's a TT you want, then buy one from the outset - it will cost you more in the long run to buy a cheap NA and convert it:wink:

Welcome to the club Stu. You'll find a wealth of information on here. And yes if you can stretch to a TT to begin with then do so, I'm having a clearout to make some space at the minute, and have a UK spec manual twin turbo that fits loosely in your 'tatty barn find' category :thumbup:

Am I right in thinking you would part with said tatty barn find, or are you on a similar build agenda? ;) there's nowt on ebay that's for sure!

 

Thanks for the welcomes chaps

I would part with it for the right money :)

 

 

Here's said car, let me know your email address and I'll send you some more pics and details :yes:

Whatever it is you buy, make sure it has no, or as little rust as possible, this is now their Achilles-heel.

Hmm, perhaps a little too loose ;) My email address is stupot_1982@hotmail.com

 

What kind of money were you expecting for this? Looking at the initial picture it's out of my price range!

I think you missed the bit at the top where I said I have a Mini.

 

Not fussed about whether it has rust or not, I've already dealt with a decent amount on the Mini which is now virtually rust free. Obviously a Z is about twice the size! I would expect any for sale would have a fair amount given its age, especially on an abandoned Z.

Hello & welcome.

 

Lots of different ways to accomplish your goal of big power from cheap beginnings :)
