Finally got my car! Check it out!

Hey guys, a few of you my remember my post from a while back stating how I was in search for a Z of my own. Long story short, after the delayed process I finally purchased a 91 300zx TT, auto w/ 165,000 miles. New engine and transmission at 140,000 miles. 3 inch exhaust all the way out and new turbos. So far I am extremely happy with my purchase. I had a chance to get real feel for the car since I had to drive it 200+ miles back to where I live and it had no real issues. I'm already looking to drop some cash for upgrades. Glad to finally be a part of the Z family!

sorry for the crappy pictures...I took them on my phone...

Looks good! Happy modding. Please don't put a body kit on it lol, a tasteful front lip or front fascia is acceptable haha.

Let's not get into this here too!
Funny it's a really similar colour to that other Z in BC.

Oh, you're right you can't tell in the pics
What's that black car behind the 300ZX? Subaru WRX?

Hood says evo, grill says maybe just lancer. It may just be the contrast though. Otherwise I see a beater rattle canned. Looks Ford or Chevy.

yeah, its nothing major I'm just being a perfectionist

as for the other cars in the driveway, the one behind the 300ZX is my daily driver. Its a 2004 Mazda 3 S...some may call it a "ricer" but I like it. The car next to that is an 86 Corolla

I was expecting that, lol. Lets just say my taste has changed since I first got that car... On a positive note, its good on gas.
