Flor-ee-da People?

Anybody from or in Florida?

I've seen a few "Z"s when I've been out and about but I haven't seen any grouped together or running in packs.

Come on,you know who you are.Be proud that you live in the hurricane capital of the USA!




Actually I'm just curious if there are any other Z car nuts in the area.

I'm a longtime Z enthusiast who just bought my first Z car 4 weeks ago. Live in Flordai - Tampa area. How about yourself?

Gainesville/Ocala area. About 3 hours North of Tampa.

Congratulations on your purchase.

Is your 300zx an N/A or a turbo model?

I never picked up on the Z31 chassis too much,mostly the older Z's,(S30/S130),and a few other chassis.(R32,R33,R34,B13,B14,S13,S14,S15,.....etc, etc...)

Any good Z clubs down in Hillsborough?

I just added my signature. It's a 1990 TT with lots of goodies. Just dropped it at a close friend's Z shop. He owns and operates Z-Fever. Builds some crazy stuff there. Getting an aftermarket driveshaft, new exhaust, lots of tuning and cosmetic parts replaced.

There doesn't appear to be any solid Z clubs around here. There's one that meets each month at the dealership. I'm looking for something a little bigger. It'd be nice to find some enthusiasts that want to roadtrip for lunches or something.

Very familiar with Gainesville. Lots of stories I can't tell my wife from that "little" town. What's your car like?

My car is....complicated at the moment.
It started off as a 240sx hatchback,but I wasn't happy with the "K"block,so I dropped a L28ET from my last project,(n/a-turbo swap but chassis had more holes than a block of swiss cheese),in her.

Dropping meaning:custom oil pan,custom mounts,custom harness,swapping bellhousings,etc,etc...

But I wasn't content with that sooo,

I put a Z front end on her that I rescued from the local junkyard.

NowI'm working on wiring up the audible warning unit,(aka-bitchin betty) from my '83 280zx.

I have plans for a twin turbo setup in the near future as well as an ECU upgrade,and a few other things.

I heard something about a Z car show or something in February down in Orlando,so I'm pushing to get the Gremlins worked out before then.

Got any pics of the Z32?

Oh,and does it have a name......yet?

No name yet. Something will jump out at me when appropriate. Right now, I can think of only one word to describe her - FEROCIOUS!

Here are some photos. Diferent wheels now. A little deeper.

It won't let me attach them since I put them in another thread. Here's the link.
