i said not too long ago i'd never sell it, but the time has come. this time i'm serious. money is short for me, interests are changing a bit, and all in all, it looks to be time to let go of this wonderful Z. if i can get a half way decent price for it, i'm going to let it go. here's my shpiel that i'll be putting up on numerous forums:

I have for sale a 1990 300ZX, with 166,000 miles on the odometer. It is a 5-speed manual, 2-seater, N/A, T-tops, and it’s yellow in color.
The car has had a recent extensive top-end rebuild. The job included professionally rebuilt heads with new valves and the bad lifters were picked out and replaced. New idler pulleys, timing belt, tensioner, drive belts, front main seal, PCV valves, and fuel injectors were all replaced. Only OEM parts were used. Other jobs on the car include installing a Z1 1-piece drive shaft, 400 watt stereo system with no subs, new ignition switch, clutch job with pressure plate, disk, pilot bushing, and throw out bearing, clutch slave cylinder, Fidanza light weight flywheel, rebuilt power steering pump, and too many others to remember. I have almost all of the receipts. I also replaced the gear oils in the transmission and the differential, I always change the engine oil every 3000 miles and I have always used mobil one synthetic. The engine runs just as perfect as it can.
The PO installed leather racing style seats, and aftermarket dual mufflers. I have silencers in the ends of the mufflers now, so it’s only kinda loud, and legal, and it sounds good. The pre-silencers have been removed. It has has a current VA state inspection.
I have about $9k in the whole car and I’m asking $4600 for it. The buyer certainly has made a good purchase just by all the things that they know that they will not have to replace. The AC doesn't work. I found where the freon had been leaking from, and fixed it, so one charge and a new belt should make that work like new. Also, the rear wiper motor broke, so I took it out and put a clean looking grommet in the hole to stop leakage. There is a little bit of shake while braking lightly, and the ABS light is on, but I’ve driven the car a lot and I know the brakes are safe, they just aren’t perfect. Radio antenna doesn’t work, and I never fixed it because I just plug the MP3 player in. the FM modulator is included to plug any 1/8 inch jack into and play it through the stereo.The car is light yellow outside, black and gray inside. I’ve achieved 23 miles per gallon with it while doing all highway driving, but I usually get 22. It has fairly new Riken Raptors all the way around with well more than half of their tread life left.

All in all, this car is great. It looks great with it's 3 year old paint, drives great, has good fresh tires on it, feels great, and sounds great. Last year I drove it every day 40 miles to work, and 40 miles back, with a 2 hour each way trip about every three weeks. The car always did great. It was my daily driver, but that figure was just to give an example of how well it always has done. Car has never over heated, I’ve never had it over 6,000 rpm’s, and I’ve rarely even had it that high. I took great care of the car and fixed everything that I had time to in the last year that I’ve had it. I hate to see it go, but I really don’t have a need to drive it now that I’m in a city enviornment, and I don’t want to let it sit.

The best way to contact me is by phone (804) 832-2604. Email is willkrom554@yahoo.com.
I can possibly travel just a bit to meet the buyer. The car is located just east of Richmond VA. I will take cash or paypal only. Call anytime with any questions, and if I don't answer I'll get back to you soon. I will deal with shipping agencies, as far as getting the car loaded up whatever, but the buyer must arrange that, and I must be paid in full before the car leaves.
Email for more pictures. The car is 100% rust free. I’ve looked everywhere and haven’t ever found any.

 

i just talked to a potential buyer. this might be gone on saturday. he sounds pretty motivated.

 

well i would try to not let it go for any less than 4300 just because of the amount of work you put into it. then just buy a S13 and a bike. makes for a GREAT reliable and fun combination. i miss my rusty S13. only thing that was built stupid on that car was the thermostat placement. haha.

 

id love to have a yellow one...

prob my favorite color on z's

good luck.


and yeah, get a bike.

 

after looking at it more, your lines seem ****ed up. like the door to fender seams and fender to fascia.... and it seems like the car might not be one solid matching color/shade/hue all the way around...

 

I thought that was discussed in another thread.

I wanna say the fenders were replaced and are missing the bottom screws.

It also looks like theyre not oem fenders and the paint is textured on the bottom. Im not sure if all z32s came with the textured side skirts/fenders.

The seams at the bumper look a little wide as well.

Still looks like a decent car for 4 grand. The mileage is a little high for my taste and it still needs body work (side skirt is dented, passenger fender is dented, drivers door is dented) to make it perfect.

I still think 4 grand might be alright, i wouldnt go less then 3500.

 

i don't see any color differences and the fenders seem to line up fine and the fascia is pretty well on there but not 100% perfect. not even something i've ever looked at.
