    Re $120,000 Modified Zed

    ;);););)I was curious too, so I emailed him and asked for a list of mods and a copy of Dyno Test and Quarter mile printouts etc., His reply said all paper work was lost when the Workshop (no names) who did the mods closed down. He will give you a list of mods, but nothing you havn't seen before I think. I was not able to add it all up to $120,000. I was going to attach his reply to this post but erased it by mistake, Sorry. ;);););)

    Who in there on earth would spend 120K, but not know how many KWs they have

    Or know what 1/4 mile times it runs? Exspecially when there is a picture of the car drag racing in the ad! I think theres something a little bit suss about this guy, nice car though. In my opinion the amount spent would be only 1/2 what he said, if not less!:thumbsdown:


    His reserve is 35K.

    Conversation so far

    Questions from other buyers for this listing


    Q: Sorry, I would not be able to bid without full paperwork of Dyno Test, Q Mile Printouts, and Receipts for all work done. If I did bid without all that it would be an average market price for an 89Zed in Stock condition.


    A: You really must be blind then... I'll leave it at that. Your rediculous and obviously insulting offer is happily and publicly REJECTED.


    Q: Hi, I'd really like a spec list or at least what has been modified. Also, do you have a dyno sheet or 1/4 mile slip? Thanks


    A: I have a basic list of the mods, but the workshop that built the engine has since closed down (taking with it all the dyno sheets and detailed specs of the car....) They also held the copies of the quarter mile runs and eighth mile runs. the basic list includes... YEAR: 91 Z32 300ZX - ENGINE: VG30DETT. ENGINE MODS: Crank: Nitrided, Rods: Factory Nissan Been Polished & Shot-peened with ARP Rod Bolts, Pistons: JE Forged, Comp Ratio: 8.1, Cylinder Heads: Ported By JHH Engineering, Cams: Wolf Technologies, Springs: Wolf Technologies, Flywheel: Wolf Technologies Aluminium, Head Gaskets: Trust Steel 2mm. FUEL SYSTEM: Injectors: NISMO 555cc, 600 HP Bosch Motor Sport Intank Pump. ENGINE MANAGEMENT: Computer: Haltech E6K, Boost Contoller: Apexi AVC-R. TURBOS: Custom, Exhaust Manifolds: Factory Mod, Downpipes: Unique Autosports 3 Inch. EXHAUST: Custom 3inch with Hiflow Cats, Radiator: Custom Alloy. There is more, but it won't fit in this response...


    Q: Hey what is the reserve price


    A: $35000

    This car's details were on a website posted on our site a while back

    it had pretty heavy work done to it, pretty much the LOT. However did not make any extreme figures (porbably well i n the 300s) or a quater mile time listed. As for not advertising with a picture of the car at the drag strip, well people who do buy cars like this (highly modified) buy it because of added performance. So those who are silly enough to think they could actually find a non thrashed turbo car should really not be looking for anything more then a stock car. My bet is that the owner spent so much money on this car and still cant get it to hook up hence wants to move onto something more common.

    This car has obviously had "bulk $" thrown at it, BUT..............

    there is no way on God's Earth, that $120,000 was spent(unless the workshop folded, and ran, because they tripled the bill).
    A nice example, ruined by some "tacky" add-ons. Probably worth $30,000 in this condition IMHO.
