I've found a car that I'd really like to get my hands on. It's a 1985 Nissan 300zx.

Recently, I've been falling in love with all things 'Z', originally, I wanted to get something like a 280z or 280zx, but the amount of time and money I'd have to put in would be too much for me. I then decided to get something a little newer, and in better condition. All I'd have to do is keep it looking in the same condition and over time I could slowly restore everything.

Attached are a couple of pics. Let me know what you guys think.

I've had worked a little on those and they look really good and perform well, but the engine is a tight fit and is tough to get stuff out. And parts ain't cheap either! Of course, thats to be expected on a sports car.
The N/A is more reliable than the turbo; it's actually a Pathfinder/Maxima engine.
Looks really well taken cared of.

Yeah. It started with my brother looking at a 280z - to fix up or possibly do a 350 small block swap. That was all fine and good, but would have taken too much time and $$$ to do.

The aftermarket wheels actually suit the car as well.
