The suprising thing is he's done an engine and gearbox swap, ditched the AC and emissions crap, but keeps the original ECU! Wtf?

Interesting 300zx on Pistonheads. It is basically a TT engine and gearbox in an NA body with AC, emissions and HICAS removed (NA diff). So should be a bit lighter than standard. Do you lot reckon this is a good buy, or is it dodgy as it's basically an unfinished project car that got finished. Discuss? http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1771415.htm

Is there any other car that the Nissan 300zx shares a gearbox with (I assume the TT and NA manual are the same)? This information could provide a cheaper way of sourcing a gearbox!

Why are cars made after 1995 significantly more valuable than those 89-95? After 95 the variable valve timing was dropped, reducing power and drivability. You'd have a hard job retro fitting it.

Just test driven a jap import 1990 300zx tt. Advertised on Pistonheads see below http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1655613.htm Car is a cat C. Has had some damage to front wing and bumper, not very serious. I'd say about £400 would fix up this problem. The real issue for me was a loud gearbox wine that drowned out the engine, surely you shouldn't be hearing the gearbox loudly inside the car in all gears. What could be making this noise, any ideas? How much to fix it, or should i just walk away?

Yeah, looks kinda promising. Only one picture though and it's not listed on the dealers website, wtf?

Hello, looking to get a good decent solid 300zx TT manual in black, silver or gun metal grey. Needs to be fully sorted as I don't have time for a project. There are three possible candidates on PH; http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1583559.htm http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1531897.htm http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1599533.htm Discuss?
