247phil Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Hi There I have just joined the forum. Iam about to buy a 300ZX TWIN TURBO Z32 300bhp Iam going to look at the vehicle tomorrow ,can you tell me what I should be looking for. This is the information I have been given Hi welcome to the sale of my much loved 300zx twin turbo. Car has 12 months MOT and 5months tax. 87000 miles, lots and lots of service history including timing belts. Imported in 1999 on a private plate valued at 1,695 pounds. Car was previously owned by zx owners club member and has been cherished all of its life. Car has removable targa roof complete with storage bags and blinds, great for the summer.car is fully loaded with every extra. I have recently refurbished the hicas rear wheel steering rack. I have also fitted a turbo timer, remote locking alarm and cd player. Everything works as it should. Engine and gearbox are perfect with no smokes or rattles. Turbos boost correctly and car drives like a dream. Paintwork and interior really tidy, slight wear on drivers seat which is to be expected. Tyres all good and wheels are mint. Twin rear silencers that sound really nice but not too loud. Hope you can help thanks Phil Also looking for a owners club in Northwest ,I live in Runcorn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ck300z Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Here is a link to sub through paypal there are other ways to pay but paypal is by far the easiest and you should show up as sub'd straight away. http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=70718 Rear spoilers and 99 spec rear lights can be sourced new through Z centre, Spoilers http://www.zcentre.co.uk/shop/index.php?cPath=21_22_27 Lights http://www.zcentre.co.uk/shop/index.php?cPath=21_22_41 Although i got my oem replica spoiler from a forum member at a much reduced cost you may have the same luck with one and the lights although i’ve only mainly seen 99spec replica lights through here Hope this helps Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medallion Man Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 so your chassis number should be in here somewhere.... year of manufacture 1989 CZ32 500001 to 502521 1990 CZ32 502522 to 504382 1991 CZ32 504383 to 405425 so the lower the number the earlyer in the year....

247phil Posted May 14, 2010 Author Share Posted May 14, 2010 Hi Znut Any idea where I can get a nice cover from for my Z for when it goes away in the garage, a nice quality one. By the way had a look at your pictures nice ride. I am thinking of fitting body kit 5 as advertised with the Z centre or may be just do back end and keep front original. Thoughts would be appreciated. 24/7 Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ck300z Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Although its certainly always a case of each to theer own and opinions do differ (imo) The Z32 was graced with good looks from the off so i think more subtle mods that blend with the Z's line's and look are best. Some of the mods i would choose> 99 spec rear lights and panel(wouldlight up red) replica oem rear spoiler, nice 18 deep dish wheels with spacers at front, suspension lowered front> 99 spec front bumper smaller front plate, side and front indicators changed for clear ones or dome's removed from front and fog lights removed and replaced with ducts :) (all only imo) and is the general look im heading for (lottery dependant) just some ideas for you anyway :D Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
