87 300zx Z31 Turbo 5sp Rust Free! on 2040-cars
Danbury, Connecticut, United States
|
Vehicle up for bid is a 1987 300zx Turbo. This Z is in excellent condition and is nearly rust-free, almost impossible to find at this age. This car has been in my possession for over a year and I am the third owner AFAIK. Car drivers down the road straight and is tight and responsive. The interior is mint with no rips or wear on the seats, carpet is clean and free from stains, dash is perfect without warping or damage, doorpanels are the nicest I've seen ... also appears to have been a smoke-free car. Paints shines nicely and body is very straight, trim is all present. There are a few minor dings and scratches consistent with its age but overall the car presents itself very well. I have personally done all maintenance and repairs on this car and have tried my best to ensure it remains reliable and fun to drive for years to come. Here is a list of repair/replaced/refurbished items:
1) Timing belt/tensioner/Cylinder Head Temp Sensor (CHTS) & subharness 2) water pump/hoses/coolant/thermostat 3) alt/ps/AC belts 4) Clutch master & slave cylinders & DOT4 fluid 5) pads/rotors front & rear, entire brake system bled with fresh DOT4 fluid 6) differential and transmission fluid changed (Synchromesh in tranny, Mobil1 75-90 in diff) 7) plugs/cap/rotor/wires/ 8) oil changed 9) polyurethane sway bar bushings front & rear 10) 3" turbo back exhaust terminating to a 2.5" Magnaflow muffler, throaty & mellow with no drone or raspiness 11) shocks/struts replace with KYB's by previous owner cosmetic/electrical: 1) aftermarket steering wheel 2) aftermarket shift knob 3) faux suede headliner 4) ADR M-Sport wheels with new 235/45/17 tires 5) decent pioneer CD headunit with aftermarket speakers 6) new headlight switch 7) boost gauge installed in place of center pod, works well (set at 7/8 psi for safe yet effective performance gain) Needs: 1) AC/blower doesn't work (didn't fix because...... T-tops) 2) haven't figured how to hook up horn with new steering wheel. Will come with old wheel if you prefer... 3) driver fog light bulb 4) headlight motors tempermental, did headlight-down mod to alleviate problem 5) burns a little oil, could use new valve seals. Motor runs perfectly otherwise. This car has very few needs and could easily be a great daily driver with a bit of work. It is extremely difficult to find a Z31 with no rust and this car is as close as you can get. The only rust present is a tiny spot just below the pass taillights (will update ad with pic). The quarters and undercarriage are all totally rust free. Fenders and rocker panels are totally rust free. Crossmember mounting points and unibody frame rails are totally rust free. There is a bit of surface rust under the tool kit, it is not structural and has not perforated the metal. Car is located in lower Westchester County in Yonkers, NY and can either be picked up in person or I can assist in loading onto the carrier of your choice. I require a $500 non-refundable deposit due within 48 hours of auction's end and the remainder to be paid within 10 days via paypal or certified bank check. Cash upon pickup in person is welcome, of course. Any questions please feel free to ask, I will answer as best and as promptly as I can. Car may be viewed locally with appointment. Vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end auction early. Good luck and thanks for looking! ***I will be away on a family vacation from 15th to the 18th which may cause a slight delay in communications*** |

Chinese-designed Nissan Lannia Concept debuts in Beijing
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Nissan showed off a stylish new concept car to the assembled crowds of media at the Beijing Motor Show. The Lannia Concept is... well, it's not that easy to describe. It's kind of a sedan, only it looks a bit like a fastback from the rear. But for a twist, it has an ever-so-small rear deck. Regardless of how we'd classify it, it's a seriously sharp piece of styling, thanks to its unique shape and flowing character lines.
If the Lannia's styling appears familiar, it's because we've sort of seen it before. There's more than a little bit of inspiration from the Friend-Me Concept. The Lannia's overall shape is similar to the Friend-Me, while both the front and rear clips look decidedly more production ready. Considering this evolution, we shouldn't rule out a production Lannia in the next few years. And if Nissan's product boss, Andy Palmer is any indication, the new model might not be limited to China.
"It was designed by Chinese, built by Chinese for the Chinese people, and ultimately, for the world," Palmer said in a statement. If Nissan can keep this sharp styling, this could prove a compelling buy in a number of markets.
2014 Nissan Versa Note
Tue, 29 Oct 2013The original Austin Mini was not designed as a fun-to-drive, sporty small car. Its go-kart-like handling and general chuckability were an unintended byproduct of essential aspects of its design. Its four wheels were pushed to the absolute corners of the car to maximize interior space, and its front-wheel-drive layout and transversely mounted engine were in contrast to the rear-wheel-drive, longitudinal layouts of the day.
The result was a highly economical car with space for four and some luggage that just happened to be an absolute hoot to drive. Nissan has followed a similar path in the design of its Versa Note, which strives to provide the maximum amount of space and efficiency in a minimal footprint. On this front, it's successful.
First, we must salute Nissan for departing from the styling of the malformed kidney bean it calls the Versa Sedan. The Versa Note is a fashionably conservative design that neither offends nor excites. The front fascia is arguably its most conservative point, with high-mounted headlights and a sharper, cleaner version of Nissan's familial grille. The tail, with its funky I-don't-know-what-shape-I-am taillights contributes most of the car's flair. The large, spacious greenhouse, particularly up front, keeps passengers from feeling hemmed-in while letting in plenty of light.
Nissan raises base GT-R price to $101,770 for 2014
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Nissan has announced a few pricing tweaks for the 2015 GT-R, one of which pushes the most basic variant past $100,000 for the first time. The 2014 cost of entry was $99,590, while the 2015 GT-R starts at $101,770.
The GT-R Black Edition, meanwhile, will demand $111,510, up from 2014's $109,300. The GT-R Track Edition retains the $115,710 asking price of the 2014 car. The price increases on the base and Black Edition come with some additional goodies that should soften the blow to pocketbooks, including a retuned suspension that promises a "more sophisticated ride," while LED headlights come standard. Bose Active Noise Cancellation has also been added to the 2015 GT-R, as has a new interior color option on the base model. For a full rundown of new goodies on the GT-R, check out our original post on the 2015 vintage.
Interestingly, the destination charge for the 2015 GT-R has climbed dramatically, from 2014's $1,000 to $1,595 for the latest car. We've reached out to Nissan to see why there was such a big increase, and will update as soon as we have an update.
