This was my only clean pass. After I let the car cool down and temps dropped later in the night. I went to make another pass and started my burn out in 2nd gear and broke my power steering belt that wrapped its self in my fan and ended my night. I got the belt out and drove home with out power steeing and that was tons of fun. This was my pass before the last burn out that ended my night.

haha.. This is so true. My brother in law has a nasty one. Cost an arm and a leg, but man is that car fun as hell.

 

How much power is that thing making? I know those cars are super heavy so Im guessing 350whp...

No idea, prob around 370-380 currently. Not really into dyno numbers

No bs, Its amazing what parts cost for a Z. It almost has the "corvette tax" Just becuase its a 300zx twin turbo, parts are double the cost and or you normally 2 of everything anyways. I just wish MORE fabricators would get involved with the Z32TT because Honda's have EVERYTHING you could ask for, Z32's can only dream about having the same aftermarket backing.

 

I love that body style of the 300zx. I would love to get one as a project when I get rid of the civic.

 

 

****, we've been building one of these cars at work. Dude has a small fortune in it, good lord.

Neat cars though, I hate working on them though lol.

Yea there is way to much crap under the hood. you can't even see the ground when you open the hood.

Got to be a nightmare to work on.

It's not so much how packed it is, it's that everything has to be taken off and put back on in a certain order or else you have to start over. THAT is the real pain in the *** about them. That and you have to pull the engine to get to the turbos lol.

 

I don't care how hard they are to work on, I would kill for a 93 Twin Turbo with low miles. I'd kill even more for a Steve Millen Edition.

Yep, there a lot harder then a Honda to work on. Had a 300ZX back in 1986 then little rota was coming soon so we traded the car for a Maxima Wagon.

 

get a 94 and up if your going to get one, the hicas (4 way steering) is electronic and not in the engine bay any more plus its under the car for a nicer looking engine bay :-) Also 94+ has alot of things that changed. If you can get a 95 its better off other wise injectors will but a huge problem. They fail alot in the 90-94. We have to upgrade to 95+ style with new injector clips and rails or machined lower plenum. They are [freak]ing fun to drive thats for sure. Good power, good tq and drive smooth.

 

here is my friend Brent Popes single setup on his 300z.. the car is making ok power but he has been fighting transmission problems..
