'86 300ZXena

So i traded my Scirocco for a '86 n/a last January. All i was told is it had cut springs, a fart can, and plasti dipped. So far i'm on stock Turbo suspension, different exhaust, Jeep Wrangler wheels, projector headlights, welded diff, and no more plasti dip. The car had just under 74,000 original miles. It's now just under 80,000.

Finally got all the plastidip off and changed my trans fluid. I lost 3rd/4th gear syncro, but the trans is still working fine. I also plan on re doing exhaust soon and installing some coilovers i picked up a few days ago.

This is basically a fun car i can toy with. I daily a lowered '94 Toyota Pickup.

So far i've been drifting and racing (please don't flame me for the racing. I understand it's stupid.)

I was going to auto cross it until it was canceled. I'm going the next chance i get. I plan on attempting a few track days and making it to the drag strip and on a dyno to get a baseline of what i'm starting with before i decide to do a swap or NA2T it.

After the coilovers i'm going to work on doing a Z32 brake upgrade and all new bushings and mounts.

Here's a video of me attempting to drift.


I should have some racing videos soon if they're allowed.
