My Nissan 300zx
Hey guys, here's my '90 Aus-delivered Nissan 300zx.
She's a 'Cherry red pearl' M/T Non-Turbo
3.0L V6, 170kw @ the flywheel
6.68 0-100km's.
Don't know any other stats off the top of my head it's no supercar.
I opted for this over a TwinTurbo because of crazy insurance premiums (this isn't much better mind you). Love it anyway, regardless of how fast/slow it is.
Completely stock apart from the 2000-spec front bar, modified exhaust, leather front seats, and sound system
Hope you like the pics, my proof shot will be the first to go up.

Very nice car, it's good that it's naturally aspirated, I don't like the sounds of turbos that much The colour is nice, although I think the car looks best in black. Congrats dude and welcome aboard

Don't mind at all, thanks for the compliments!
2004 Pioneer CDA-9831 head unit
-mp3, sexy graphic display, all that sorta jazz..
2x 6.5" Epsilon fronts w/ tweeters
2x Blaupunkt 6"x4" rear speakers
2x Alpine Type-S 12" Subs
2x Alpine V-Power Amps (700w+360w)
Soundproofed the whole car with Dynamat.
The sound is unreal, although I'd go bigger in the next car (TT Zed ) for sure.

Thanks for that . The answer is yes and no . It's standard off a 2000-spec Z, but the bar on the silver one is what mine had originally.
The silver Z just fyi is a Twin Turbo. They're easily distinguished by the slat-grille on the front corners - there for the side-mount intercoolers . The N/A doesn't have this feature, so they're easy to tell apart. You'll all know your N/A's from TT's now! (unless they're kitted hehe).

Hehe nah, no new rims! I plan to get a TwinTurbo Z before the end of the year, so that will get all my attention (mods, mags, etc) when it arrives
For now I'm just going to appreciate this car for what it is, keep up the preventative maintenance etc. so it stays trouble-free. New clutch, pads, & replacing some hoses under the plenum soon - not fun, not cheap hehe but that's the price we pay I suppose.
Thx again for the comments!
