hi everyone, im new to the forum. Thinking about getting my first 300zx. Just wanted to know a little information about the cars, any specifics problems to look out for when viewing. Im going to look at a tommy kaira jap import non turbo v6 targa. Anyone know if these are any good? Im familiar with tommy kaira, just never seen a 300zx one by tommy

Welcome...First things first. The best bit of cash I spent on my Z was a subscription for this site. The help has been great, from loads of people!! Best £20 ever

 

The next thing to do is to scout around the FAQ section. It's really up to date and well worth the hours.

 

Then ask for some help to buy the car. Smeone, somewhere will be able to assist

 

Then,,enjoy the best car for the oney on the road today!!

hi mate and welcome to the club. like Chris says check out the FAQ site of this forum first as these questions have been asked loads of times.

but to be a little more helpful: imports should be well looked after, low mileage, low rust. is it auto or manual, as autoboxes are infamous for breaking down on you (as i well know from personal experience).

just be careful with cars claiming to be Tommy Kaira, as there was one on ebay a while ago that we all had a good laugh at. try to get some proof (post up a list of mods for us to look through ;) )

good luck with the car tho buddy.

its a manual. The mods are mainly cosmetic by the look of it. Interior has been kitted out with nice seats and shiny stuff everywhere. exterior, alloys, light clusters, lots of tommy kaira badging and stuff, massive exhausts. It could easily be faked as a tommy but its not that expensive at £5 and it looks great.

kin ell £5 thats a cheap z pmsl

What Yr and milage cos for £5k it has to be a bloody good one for that :cool:

BTW before we carry on youre not related to Tommi are you? Could you be Jonny Kaira? ;) :)

no relation just couldnt think of a user name! its a 1993 k reg, 50,000 miles. From the pics it looks like a minter. Never know untill i view it though. It seems the high end of book price for an import. Ideally though id prefer a uk. Got to offload my current car first. Part ex at a garage seems like the easiest solution.

Did Tommi Kaira ever do an NA? I was under the impression all their cars were TT?

no!! theres no such thing.I think its another hoax maybe a bodykit thats why there calling it a tommi kaira

Hoax or not (and tbh I've never heard of a NA being done before either) here is a link that may be of help to you;

http://www.neuralmotion.com/m30z/links.htm

Quite a bit of info on there, including the official site (if you can read Japanese :D )

 

HTH

welcome - beware the TommyKaira hoax and make sure you have reasonably deep pockets b4 you buy a zed!!

I saw an advert for a Tommy Kiara na the other day. Took 1 look at the photo and its a TK bodykit on a NA. As we all know there are some defacto standards with all TK cars and this dint have one of them. If its the same car and thier going to try and get extra for it 1st on the Log it will say tommy Kiara. 2nd he has a habit of sticking his name all over the car. 3rd every one I have seen has it emblazoned on teh engine.

 

But best tip. is £20 joining. and i bet if you ask nicely one of the lads near you would help out. If your near me I would.
