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.

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.
