Good god the photoshop.
>>16505255
can you seriously not tell that the pic is horribly edited to change the color of the car
>>16505183
Twin turbos huh? How do you like it?
I have the NA and it's the most powerful car I've owned (which tells you how many cars I've owned) and it feels like a jet in both acceleration and cockpit feel. I can only imagine how insane TT would be.
>>16505192
That's more 90s than 80s...
>>16505183
mine :)
Why do 240z have so much rust problems?
>>16505652
Japanese metal is shit quality its not 240Z specific
Eyyy fellow z32 owners
Do clean Z32s exist or have they all been pawed at by the F&F crowd? I find myself irrationally attracted to this bloated flounder.
My friend's s30
>>16506339
Z32 was not part of F&F so you'll easily find clean ones.
>>16506371
That was my understanding yet my Craigslist continues to list stanced example after example.

>>16506371
Personally on the east Coast finding a unmodified TT is pretty hard from what I have seen. I picked mine up for in shit condition but almost stock (jwt ecu, injectors, intake and catback) for 3.5k ended up selling after a year for 2.5k and almost 1k in fixing shit. The transmission on mine was fucking horrid for 2nd gear, I learned how to get it in without grinding but I let a few other people drive the car and holy fuck they couldn't even get it into 2nd haha. saw it on craigslist a year later with a blown motor. It was a very love hate relationship.
>>16506647
Was it yours pictured? If so, it was at least a looker.
>>16506669
Yes that was it. It was a really fun car to own though, got comments on it from random people probably weekly.
>>16506339
Mine is clean. Bought it for a very reasonable price from a guy in his 50s. All stock 91k miles.
They do exist. There are plenty of older guys that were into these cars. They tend to keep them in good shape.
>>16506848
How much did you pay and when? Also, shame on you for not posting a pic.
>>16505457
Its a fun time, all i did was bolt stock turbos to the NA motor and it makes 400whp
>>16505513
tfw no real te37s
>>16506387
I see clean ones all the time in GA, and I got mine completely original one owner with only 114k for 5k, and then molested it myself :^)
>tfw z cars are beyond expensive in the UK.
What happened to Dat L24 or L28ETT or TankGirl anyone know?
>>16507117
I'm always lurking, no more Daily Datsun threads :/
I bought a 240sx though. S13 KA-T

Pic related.
>>16506366
I wanna suck your friends dick and drive his car in no particular order.
Isnt there a /datsun/ discord?
>>16507821
I don't even like Z31s, but your image is persuading me otherwise ...
Keep the Z thread going.
Can't wait to get more power into this thing.
>>16506986
No shit? I might just do that myself then. Probably just small single turbo for now.
Picked up a set of round tops recently. Going to rebuild them and replace the downdrafts in my 260z (I hope exif data doesn't rotate it wrong like an asshole)
>>16510034
Said 260
My Z.
Loving it so far.
started skidding on the streets from pushing it in 2nd, but I didn't even realize it. Thought my alignment fucked up and I let off the gas and corrected myself before I realized what happened.
Had a fun time last night, too!

oh they are real
Started a thread last night but fell asleep on it. Here's mine as of 2 days ago, not running but was cheap enough that it didn't matter.
>>16510062
Please learn to drive before you destroy a decent z32 with these antics. These cars are getting more rare every day.
>>16510916
Oof. That rust. Worried what the floors look like.
>Tfw my 240 isn't done yet
>>16511651
It will never be done.
>>16511511
I learned my lesson friend.
I respect the car much more now.
I never said I did it on purpose did I? It was a rookie mistake and I hit a loose patch of sand. I know better now.
My 280, one of my favourite angles (mostly because it doesnt show any rust)

Still haven't figured out why all the clutch fluid boiled out last time I autocrossed it, i'm thinking there was air in it, so every time I shifted the clutch was still dragging a bit?

Is the 350z or even 370z, a worthy successor to the Z line? It feels as if Nissan keeps making them get further and further away from the original idea of just a japanese sports car. The 370z just looks retarded when compared to the older Z cars.
>>16514685
The original Z-cars set out to be sports cars, and the did a respectable job of it. But after the oil crises of the 70s the market shifted away from sporty and more to luxury. That's when the 280zx came out, with it's emphasis on grand touring feel. Since then, it's walked the line between the two.
I mean, you compare the 370z to the z32 and they're not all that dissimilar, if anything I might argue the 370z is more sporty than the z32s.
If you're talking about looks though, only the originals and the z31s really do it for me
>>16514464
Trapfags have truely ruined every board on this site.
Let's say I'm interested in a 350z, is there certain years I should avoid? Also, would an infinite Q35 be a better choice?
>>16512448
But thats katakana not kanji

う-うるさいばか!

Stay the fuck away from 350s. The early models had a ton of problems and the engine is shit. Get a 370, they are more reliable and have the non shit tier engine. As far as infinity goes, they are going to cost more, but be a smoother ride. You can hear almost everything on the road in a 350 or 370. Sound dampening is non existent.
