Hi all,

I have just started the process of purchasing a 1992 Z32 and am very excited (picking it up next week if all goes well!)

Just want to say hello to everyone and I am hoping to get involved in the community once I get my head into the car.
Very keen to get some advice and tips starting out as to work I should look to do on the car early and parts/tools that are a must have to deal with issues that come up.
The car is about 40,000 miles and apparently had a timing belt change at 32/35k (can't remember which right now) so that does reduce my stress a bit on that issues. Would probably just get it done around 60,000 still so I'm in line with the normal servicing cycle again.

Otherwise it seems to be in good condition, I checked the problem areas for rust and that the various switches seem to work all fine.

I have some experience working on my outgoing 370z but definitely on the more novice end so please info dump me all that you like and direct me to useful resources, I want to teach myself to keep this car running happy.

Thank all and looking forward to being a part of the community

Also what do you all do for the severe lack of cupholders!!

Welcome to the club.

First question i can answer easy enough, - Pull the cigarette tray straight up and out - Hey Presto - Secret cup holder.

Apart from that cup holder places in the zed suck.

Thank you and that's a good shout didn't spot you could pull it out!

300ZX Cup Holder with USB C & A Charging – autotun3D Store

Hi and welcome to the club....!

With regards the cam belt change, is there evidence of it having been done (invoice, service sticker etc)? If not, then I'd recommend having it changed anyway - just to be sure. And even if there's proof it has, check that a genuine Nissan belt was used - aftermarket ones don't always line up properly...

And as for lack of cup-holders, I have never used a cup-holder in any of my cars, so it doesn't bother me 😄

Thank you all, sorry I thought I replied on my phone but didn't seem to work!

Thanks Peage for the heads up on that, could be a really useful addition especially with the USB chargers too.

There is a little sticker on top which is where I got the mileage for the last one, I can't remember of the top of my head who did it but will double check. I'm keen to just get it done as I approach 60k just for my own peace of mind
