Hi guys, I'm new to the group and would like to meet up with some 300zx owners in Canberra. I'm researching my next project car and have a 300zx firmly in my sights but would love to absorb some first hand knowledge before making my final decision. Thanks. Justin
Hey mate, I lived in the ACT my entire life up until very recently, and I have a pretty good knowledge of most of the local cars. I know quite a few members there aswell. Do you have any info on the 300zx you're looking at? Chances are I may know a bit about it.
Sorry for the confusion, I'm not looking at a particular car, but the 300zx lineup as a whole for the next project. I want to know exactly what I'm after before I start shopping. I'm not in a hurry so I have plenty of time to research, get to know the strengths and weaknesses and hopefully one of the guys here with a well set up car can take me for a run so I know what I can expect. Thanks for the replies
That makes it easy then. If you're looking for a manual buy this: http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-300ZX-1990/SSE-AD-2745174/?Cr=0&sdmvc=1 User Chewthrutheseropesch's car. I can highly vouch for this as I've seen it in real life. Awesome condition and dat TwinZ front bar If you're looking a slicktop auto, then look no further than this: http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-300ZX-1989/SSE-AD-2086614/?Cr=1&sdmvc=1 User ZedMD's car. I haven't seen this one personally but have heard amazing things about it + it was owned at some point by Zcar91, who is undoubtably one of the highest regarded zed enthusiasts in the country .
I'm heading to Canberra soon To stay with lilbaz I'm sure that he and I wouldn't mind you looking over the cars. Anthony's car is a perfect example and at the price one of the best bases you could ask for http://www.tunedinternational.com/feature-cars/once-you-go-black-andrews-417kw-300zx/ Link to my zed
http://www.aus300zx.com/forum/showthread.php?t=329342&page=2 Check this out and you'll see a few Lilbaz is the silver one Mine- from link above Is black
The other hot buy at the moment is KEZA's http://www.aus300zx.com/forum/showthread.php?t=329522 I've never seen it but there's a lot of long time owners/members that seem to hold it in high regard. Which side of town are you on? I'd be happy to catch up some time, my car is a good model for showing you potential problems
I'm about to drop in a motor back into mine. You would walk away with a head full of 300zx knowledge.
^ very good idea, I couldn't [be bothered to] figure any of the vacuum lines out in mine until I pulled the engine. Let me know when Andrew and I'll see if I can come lend some hands too.
Not sure when yet. Was gonna do it sunday night, was gonna do it last night. Who knows at the moment.
Anthony's car a "base"?!? It's one of the cleanest examples I've had the pleasure of seeing in person. Up close it puts many of the "hotter" cars on the forum to shame... A steal at asking price.
3 good buys On the forum at the moment, Caz1, Keza, and Zedmd's, all good well looked after cars, all a steal at the price their asking.
Hi guys, Sorry just spotted all the replies. I live in Bruce and would love to see any car I can and definitely have a look at the engine replacement. Can I grab some addresses off you guys or places where you're happy to meet up. My email is mrbump80@gmail.com that way there is no need to be posting them on an open forum. Thanks Justin
