1990 Nissan 300zx Twin Turbo Coupe 2-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Sacramento, California, United States
|  285 WHP OUTPUT @ 13 PSI (DYNO SHEET ATTACHED) Runs a 14.1 Sec 1/4 mile CLEAN TITLE, ORIGINAL TWIN TURBO CAR, 1st YEAR OF PRODUCTION (Holy Crap!) Modifications that matter: TEIN Coil-Overs + NUMEROUS OTHER SUSPENSION PARTS STR Racing Wheels (comes with chrome OEM wheels and tires too) Stillen Cold Air Intake Full Exhaust (DP, TP, HKS High-Power Knock-off; original exhaust available with NEW cats) Aftermarket Blow-off Valves (pair) Z1 Motorsports ECU Z1 Motorsports Short Shifter and Shifter Bracket AEM Boost Gauge/Controller (digital) Under-drive pulley Additional things the car has: Hurst shift knob (have factory knob) LED accent lighting (2 modes + color change) HID-low beam (6000K) (original bulbs can be installed if desired) Engine recently rebuilt by previous owner (and painted, it wasn't me, I swear I have more taste than that) Wheel spacers for the STR wheels, comes with additional set that can be installed on the rear. Newer brake pads Newer tires (wider) Stillen Body kit Various OEM parts included with the car NEW catalytic converters This car has no radio other than the sweet, sweet sound of a twin-turbo drive train. (Where did you think those gauges were installed? It is more stealthy, and desirable, trust me.) This car ain't no garage queen. Nope. This car runs and drives like a champion because it is one, and I have the time slips from Sacramento Raceway to prove it (14.1 seconds @ 13 PSI, currently running 15 PSI). This car is also an excellent platform for other motorsports, or will suffice as an excellent GT car (as it was intended); whatever your path, in driving this car, you will experience enjoyment. The car is ready to be painted the color of your dreams (currently painted flat-white with black accents). The original seats are ready to be restored or refinished in the fashion of your choosing. If fact, the interior, though cared for, does look appropriate for a car of this vintage. I have a stack of paperwork of the amount of money I have in the car, and my mechanic rents a room from me, so he can tell you about the long hours he's spent setting up the car, and I can tell you about the bills. -- So, I know what it costs to buy and own these cars. This is an original twin turbo, first year of a limited production, with a clean title, it is completely sound mechanically, it has the real transmission (lol @ automatics), and it comes with all the goodies. (Working automatic climate control? Yup.) WHY AM I SELLING? I have the title, but the previous owner didn't smog it. So, this car is stuck in smog limbo, meaning you cannot transfer the title until you smog the car (EDIT: NOT A PROBLEM IF YOU'RE OUT OF STATE). I did everything I could to get it to pass, but I couldn't, so I built the car to run a couple of times down the strip at the Speedway. Now I'm tired of this smog nonsense (I'm still trying to find a smog guy that'll hook me up...) and I want a car that I can street legally (EDIT: THE TAGS ARE STILL GOOD), something preferably pre-smog (like a 240z). (That's what I get for being new to California's smog laws). The first 11,000 takes the car. CAR SOLD AS-IS. NO WARRANTY. Test drive available with the cash in hand. Otherwise, I'll be the one driving. And yes, we can run it at Sacramento Speedway if it'll make you happy. You break it, you buy it. |

A car writer's year in new vehicles [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Christmas is only a week away. The New Year is just around the corner. As 2014 draws to a close, I'm not the only one taking stock of the year that's we're almost shut of. Depending on who you are or what you do, the end of the year can bring to mind tax bills, school semesters or scheduling dental appointments. For me, for the last eight or nine years, at least a small part of this transitory time is occupied with recalling the cars I've driven over the preceding 12 months. Since I started writing about and reviewing cars in 2006, I've done an uneven job of tracking every vehicle I've been in, each year. Last year I made a resolution to be better about it, and the result is a spreadsheet with model names, dates, notes and some basic facts and figures. Armed with this basic data and a yen for year-end stories, I figured it would be interesting to parse the figures and quantify my year in cars in a way I'd never done before. The results are, well, they're a little bizarre, honestly. And I think they'll affect how I approach this gig in 2015. {C} My tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015 it'll be as high as 73. Let me give you a tiny bit of background about how automotive journalists typically get cars to test. There are basically two pools of vehicles I drive on a regular basis: media fleet vehicles and those available on "first drive" programs. The latter group is pretty self-explanatory. Journalists are gathered in one location (sometimes local, sometimes far-flung) with a new model(s), there's usually a day of driving, then we report back to you with our impressions. Media fleet vehicles are different. These are distributed to publications and individual journalists far and wide, and the test period goes from a few days to a week or more. Whereas first drives almost always result in a piece of review content, fleet loans only sometimes do. Other times they serve to give context about brands, segments, technology and the like, to editors and writers. So, adding up the loans I've had out of the press fleet and things I've driven at events, my tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015, it'll be as high as 73. At one of the buff books like Car and Driver or Motor Trend, reviewers might rotate through five cars a week, or more. I know that number sounds high, but as best I can tell, it's pretty average for the full-time professionals in this business.
Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4
Fri, 26 Sep 2014We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.
'Zero' chance of Renault taking over Nissan, Mitsubishi, says Ghosn
Fri, Jun 22 2018TOKYO — Renault SA absorbing Nissan Motor Co. and Mitsubishi Motors Corp is not an option as the carmakers look to strengthen their partnership while retaining their autonomy, alliance chairman Carlos Ghosn said on Friday. "Anybody who will ask Nissan and Mitsubishi to become wholly owned subsidiaries of Renault has zero chance of getting a result," Ghosn told shareholders of Mitsubishi Motors at a meeting. He also serves as chief executive of France's Renault. The alliance was the world's top-selling passenger vehicle maker in 2017, but as the global auto industry consolidates, it is looking to strengthen its position before the 64-year-old Ghosn, its main architect, retires in the coming years after overseeing the partnership for nearly 20 years. We reported in March that the carmakers were discussing a deeper tie-up, which could see the French government, a major shareholder in Renault, give up influence at Renault and the French carmaker relinquish control over Nissan. The three automakers have a unique partnership designed to leverage their combined scale to save on costs including R&D, parts procurement and production to better compete with rivals Volkswagen AG and Toyota Motor Corp. They are also interlinked by their shareholding structure. Renault holds 43.4 percent of shares in Nissan, while Nissan owns 15 percent of Renault, with no voting rights in a partnership that began in 1999. Mitsubishi Motors joined the alliance in 2016 after Nissan took a 34 percent controlling stake in the smaller automaker. Nissan CEO Hiroto Saikawa has said the alliance is not discussing a "full merger." Ghosn said that while the focus of the alliance was to sell more cars and increase profitability by reducing unnecessary duplication of processes, he wanted each of the three automakers to maintain their independence, which differentiated the group from Toyota and Volkswagen. "We need to work together ... to find a system by which what we have today, which is working very well, can continue in the future no matter who is leading the alliance," he said. "We need to prove that this is sustainable five years down the road, 10 years down the road, 15 years down the road." In a Figaro interview published last week, Ghosn was upbeat about the prospect of securing a new deal for the alliance despite its extreme political sensitivity in France and Japan, saying a plan would need to be announced "well before" the end of his four-year term at the helm of Renault in 2022.
