1990 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo (aka Z32) (aka Fairlady Z) Overall, this car is in very nice condition for a 24 year old car. I purchased this car from my good friend 3 years ago as he soon had children and didn't drive it. I am now finding myself in that boat as my wife and I are expecting and she said I better get something with a back seat. The car currently has 131,900 miles on the odometer. My knowledge on the history of this car starts back in 1998 when my friend purchased it. At that time the car came with a salvage title. I'm not exactly sure what happened to it, but I know the car drives straight and there is no unusual wear on the wheels. The car was completely repainted back in 1999 after being keyed. When they stripped the car, the body shop went through it and found nothing majorly wrong. I have bare metal pictures of the car at the body shop (Polaroid's). My friend thought that it was involved in some insurance fraud case, but that's not certain. The car has the following features:
As mentioned above, the interior was redone in early 2000's. The interior used to be black with white inlays. The interior was changed to all black. The seats, door panels, and center console were redone. There are only issues with the door panels as the passenger door has a few bubbles and the driver's door is pealing (see pictures). This could easily be corrected in an upholstery shop. I just haven't had enough interest to fix it as it's not critical to the function of the car. In early 2000's, my friend rebuild the engine and lowered the compression (for more boost, of course). Upgrades include:
With the upgrades, this car has a lot of power. The car has never been dynoed, but I can assume that the car has somewhere between 450-500 hp based off of similar builds that have been posted online. The car currently has the stock tune and could be retuned for more power. However, for me it runs good enough to make me happy. It does currently run a little rich. Also, I believe the valves will need to be adjusted soon as I'm starting to hear them. Since the rebuild, only Royal Purple full synthetic oil has been used in the engine. The rear differential and transmission currently have Red Line synthetic oil. The car will also come with an assortment of parts including additional stainless lines and AN fittings, extra wiring harness, stock injectors, service cover for the car (covers side fenders and front), FACTORY service manual (aka: the 300ZX bible), timing belt covers (they were removed when the engine was rebuild and never reinstalled), etc. I have most receipts and manuals for the items installed. These cars have been noticed for their power and beauty. Every year from 1990-1996 (last year imported to the US), this car made the "10 best" list by Car and Driver. In 1990 the car was named Motor Trend's "Import Car of the Year," Automobile Magazine named it "Design of the Year," and Road & Track named it "One of the Ten Best Cars in the World." In 2004, Automobile magazine listed the Z32 one of the "100 greatest cars of all time." In 2006, the Z32 was recognized as one of the "20 Greatest Cars of the Past 20 years" and the one of the "25 Most Beautiful Cars in History." Car is sold "as is." The car runs well and has never left me stranded. It is, however, a 20+ year old car. It should also be noted that the rear key for the hatch does not work, but the hatch can be opened by the hatch lever by the driver's seat. I've tried my best to explain the car, if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. |

Nissan Juke facelift spied during testing
Mon, 03 Feb 2014The Nissan Juke boldly reinvented the subcompact crossover for the modern age a decade after the niche's progenitors - the first-generation Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V - grew well beyond their original, diminutive sizes. Since being introduced in 2010 as a 2011 model, the Juke has proven to be a huge sales success for Nissan in Europe and quite a success here, too. A modest refresh is planned for the 2015 model year of Nissan's tiniest crossover, and our spy shooters have caught an early glimpse.
The exact changes are not easy to spot, but you can bet that anywhere you see camouflage, a modestly new look is hidden underneath. The biggest change up front is the narrower grille that appears to no longer extend over the headlights. Assuming this isn't just a clever disguise, the change gives the impression that the Juke actually has distinct headlights, instead of massive fog lights. The more angular front air dam also appears to extend slightly lower than before, and the intakes appear to be revised as well.
The changes to the rear are even more minor. You can still see the outlines of the boomerang-shaped headlights, and any alterations to the rear bumper are impossible to spot behind the camouflage tape. It's also unclear at this point whether the interior will receive any refinements or new options.
Nissan BladeGlider Concept shows its inner DeltaWing
Thu, 21 Nov 2013Just like the DeltaWing and ZEOD RC racecars, it takes seeing the Nissan BladeGlider concept live to get a true appreciation for its design. But that doesn't mean it's any less weird. The wedge-shaped, three-seat concept car hit the stage today at the Tokyo Motor Show, and Nissan says the car is an "exploratory prototype" for a future production model.
The BladeGlider is defined by its design with front wheels that are just about three feet apart, while the rear has a more conventional track. Opening the scissor doors reveals a center driving position flanked by two passenger seats with a cockpit-inspired design. Although no power figures were revealed for the conceptual vehicle, Nissan does say that the BladeGlider is an all-electric vehicle with its battery pack mounted toward the rear of the car helping to provide a 30/70 weight distribution front to rear.
Check out our live images of the BladeGlider as well as the Nissan press release below.
FCA withdraws its offer to merge with Renault
Thu, Jun 6 2019UPDATE: Fiat Chrysler Automobiles released a statement confirming that it has withdrawn its merger offer, saying "it has become clear that the political conditions in France do not currently exist for such a combination to proceed successfully." The full statement can be read below our original story, which continues below. Fiat Chrysler has withdrawn its $35 billion merger offer for Renault, the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday. A source said that FCA had informed Renault it had withdrawn the offer after Renault's board of directors failed to reach a decision on the merger during a meeting that ran late into the night Wednesday. Instead, the board granted the French government's request to postpone its vote. The government wanted time to persuade Renault's reticent alliance partner Nissan. Renault's board issued a press release that said simply that it was "unable to take a decision due to the request expressed by the representatives of the French State to postpone the vote to a later Council." WSJ reported that Nissan's two members on Renault's board were balking, while the rest of the board favored the merger. The French government wouldn't it back the deal unless Nissan agreed to maintain its role in the Renault-Nissan alliance, sources said. Nissan had received little advance warning of the merger proposal and was balking. Apparently the French government thought Nissan could be brought around if given more time. "We should take our time to make sure that things are done well," French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire told French television on Wednesday. When the French requested a delay and Renault's board granted it, FCA withdrew. The French state, which owns 15% of Renault, had also been seeking more influence over the merged company, firmer job guarantees and improved terms for Renault shareholders in return for blessing the $35 billion tie-up. The merger would have created the world's third-biggest automaker with combined sales of 8.7 million vehicles per year, and was intended to cut costs as the parties develop electric and autonomous vehicles. Read Fiat Chrysler Automobile's full statement below: FCA withdraws merger proposal to Groupe Renault June 5, 2019 , London - IMPORTANT NOTICE The Board of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. ("FCA") (NYSE: FCAU / MTA: FCA), meeting this evening under the Chairmanship of John Elkann, has resolved to withdraw with immediate effect its merger proposal made to Groupe Renault.
