Hi guys, I'm about to buy a 300zx
I know nothing about these cars but this ones cheap...
It has its problems but I'm hoping they are a relatively easy fix.
- no mot or tax
- hasn't been started in 6 months or so
- oil is a little creamy...
- plastic spoiler has seemingly rotted the tailgate away
- blue smoke from exhausts upon initial start, gradually got clearer as the car got up to temp.
- I'm told it's driven 11 miles since previous mot where lots of money was spent on tyres, welding, cooling etc...
- the rest of the car is in ok / tatty condition and could do with a detail.
As its been sat for a while, I understand it could do with a service, but I'm very wary or that massive engine and those two turbos resulting in costly repair bills.
What I'm asking is;
Could blue smoke = knackered turbos or condensation / old fuel
Could creamy oil = head gaskets, common issue with these engines?
The car is priced at £500
Thaks in advance, any advice welcome.
Thanks for the input guys, and the warm welcome :)
