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. |

Daimler and Nissan venture to build cars in Mexico
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Nissan and Daimler have been partnering ever closer for years, and now an unnamed source has told Reuters that the automakers have agreed to a 50-50 joint venture in Mexico that would build Infiniti and Mercedes-Benz models. Given that the rumors about just such a deal go back nearly six months and similar rumblings are years old, this arrangement has been a long time coming.
The insider tells Reuters that a memorandum of understanding was signed between them last month to build the Mercedes GLA-Class and new Infinitis at Nissan's Aguascalientes factory. The rumor didn't say when production would begin. It wouldn't be the first time the two automakers have decided to share this platform - Infiniti will build its Q30 compact on it in the UK next year.
The partnership between the Renault-Nissan Alliance and Daimler goes back to 2010 when the companies signed an agreement to share engines, factories and platforms. Since then, products of the partnership have included the underpinnings for the next-generation Smart and Renault Twingo and shared engines among some other models.

Recharge Wrap-up: Cruz defends ethanol stance, Bloomberg gets EV numbers wrong?
Sat, Jan 9 2016Republican presidential hopeful Senator Ted Cruz is defending his stance against ethanol subsidies in an opinion piece in The Des Moines Register. In the piece, Cruz says he doesn't oppose ethanol, but opposes mandates and subsidies, favoring a "free and fair energy marketplace," and an "'all of the above' policy." "We should embrace all of the energy resources with which God has blessed America: oil and gas, coal, nuclear, wind, solar, and biofuels and ethanol," says Cruz, "But Washington shouldn't be picking winners and losers." To farmers' benefit, Cruz says he would enforce antitrust laws against those who try to keep ethanol out of the marketplace, and fight the EPA's hard blend walls prohibiting higher amounts of ethanol in gasoline. Read Cruz's article at The Des Moines Register, and read more from The Washington Times.Hybrid Cars calls out Bloomberg Business in a post saying it used inaccurate data in a piece highlighting dim plug-in sales. While the Bloomberg article, titled "Plug-in Electric Autos Left Behind in Record Year," accurately points out a slower year for EVs, it claims sales slipped 17 percent in 2015. According to data from Hybrid Cars, that decline was just 2.88 percent. Hybrid Cars claims that Bloomberg lumped a number of PHEVs with regular hybrids when it calculated the faulty data. Read more about the discrepancy and the more realistic picture of EV sales at Hybrid Cars.The National Biodiesel Board has hired Sandra Franco as general counsel. The Georgetown University Law Center graduate gained experience in environmental litigation during her time as a partner at the Morgan Lewis Law Firm. "There isn't an attorney in the country who knows renewable fuels law better than Sandra Franco, and we are thrilled to have her join our team," says National Biodiesel Board CEO Joe Jobe. "Sandra is a tremendously skilled and seasoned attorney who will help us ensure that the US biodiesel industry has a strong voice and expert counsel in Washington as well as on legal and regulatory issues across the country."
