87 300zx Z31 Turbo 5sp Rust Free! on 2040-cars
Danbury, Connecticut, United States
|
Vehicle up for bid is a 1987 300zx Turbo. This Z is in excellent condition and is nearly rust-free, almost impossible to find at this age. This car has been in my possession for over a year and I am the third owner AFAIK. Car drivers down the road straight and is tight and responsive. The interior is mint with no rips or wear on the seats, carpet is clean and free from stains, dash is perfect without warping or damage, doorpanels are the nicest I've seen ... also appears to have been a smoke-free car. Paints shines nicely and body is very straight, trim is all present. There are a few minor dings and scratches consistent with its age but overall the car presents itself very well. I have personally done all maintenance and repairs on this car and have tried my best to ensure it remains reliable and fun to drive for years to come. Here is a list of repair/replaced/refurbished items:
1) Timing belt/tensioner/Cylinder Head Temp Sensor (CHTS) & subharness 2) water pump/hoses/coolant/thermostat 3) alt/ps/AC belts 4) Clutch master & slave cylinders & DOT4 fluid 5) pads/rotors front & rear, entire brake system bled with fresh DOT4 fluid 6) differential and transmission fluid changed (Synchromesh in tranny, Mobil1 75-90 in diff) 7) plugs/cap/rotor/wires/ 8) oil changed 9) polyurethane sway bar bushings front & rear 10) 3" turbo back exhaust terminating to a 2.5" Magnaflow muffler, throaty & mellow with no drone or raspiness 11) shocks/struts replace with KYB's by previous owner cosmetic/electrical: 1) aftermarket steering wheel 2) aftermarket shift knob 3) faux suede headliner 4) ADR M-Sport wheels with new 235/45/17 tires 5) decent pioneer CD headunit with aftermarket speakers 6) new headlight switch 7) boost gauge installed in place of center pod, works well (set at 7/8 psi for safe yet effective performance gain) Needs: 1) AC/blower doesn't work (didn't fix because...... T-tops) 2) haven't figured how to hook up horn with new steering wheel. Will come with old wheel if you prefer... 3) driver fog light bulb 4) headlight motors tempermental, did headlight-down mod to alleviate problem 5) burns a little oil, could use new valve seals. Motor runs perfectly otherwise. This car has very few needs and could easily be a great daily driver with a bit of work. It is extremely difficult to find a Z31 with no rust and this car is as close as you can get. The only rust present is a tiny spot just below the pass taillights (will update ad with pic). The quarters and undercarriage are all totally rust free. Fenders and rocker panels are totally rust free. Crossmember mounting points and unibody frame rails are totally rust free. There is a bit of surface rust under the tool kit, it is not structural and has not perforated the metal. Car is located in lower Westchester County in Yonkers, NY and can either be picked up in person or I can assist in loading onto the carrier of your choice. I require a $500 non-refundable deposit due within 48 hours of auction's end and the remainder to be paid within 10 days via paypal or certified bank check. Cash upon pickup in person is welcome, of course. Any questions please feel free to ask, I will answer as best and as promptly as I can. Car may be viewed locally with appointment. Vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end auction early. Good luck and thanks for looking! ***I will be away on a family vacation from 15th to the 18th which may cause a slight delay in communications*** |

2015 Nissan Versa Note adds sporty-ish SR trim
Thu, 06 Feb 2014The funny, little Nissan Versa Note is getting a new trim level - two, actually - for the 2015 model year. And the one you see above is the sporty-ish Note SR, making its debut at the Chicago Auto Show this week.
Underneath, it's the same Versa Note we've already driven, complete with Nissan's 109-horsepower, 1.6-liter inline four-cylinder engine and up to 40 miles per gallon highway. The SR's changes are purely cosmetic, with a revised front fascia featuring smoked headlamps, standard foglamps and black chrome accents. Those are matched with new dark-finished 16-inch alloy wheels, revised mirrors and side sills, along with a new rear roof spoiler.
A few interior enhancements have been made, as well, with the addition of a "370Z-inspired" leather-wrapped steering wheel, suede-like fabric on the seats with orange accents and a piano-black center stack.
Nissan Resonance Concept gives glimpse of next Murano
Tue, 15 Jan 2013The Nissan Resonance Concept has bowed at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, giving the world a glimpse at the company's future design direction for crossovers. Specifically, the concept heralds what the next-generation Murano may look like once it touches down. Nissan has already confirmed the successor to the big crossover's throne will be produced in Mississippi for the first time. With a "floating" roof and dynamic head lamp arrays, the Resonance boasts a far more athletic appearance than the snub-nosed current generation. Inside, designers worked up a cockpit aimed at conveying what "the future of first-class space travel might be."
Nissan isn't saying what the upcoming Murano will have under the hood, but the Resonance boasts an all-wheel-drive hybrid powertrain with a small-displacement internal combustion engine and an electric motor. A lithium-ion battery delivers power while a CVT takes care of putting power to the wheels. Take a look at the full press release below for more information.
MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo
Thu, 24 Jul 2014Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.
