Stats:

* * *

1985 300ZX turbo  
GLL package  
5 speed  
T-tops  
Leather interior with power seats  
Full digital instrumentaion w/ Climat control (in 1985!!!)

## The good:

Partial restoration completed in 2002, with most major mechanical components replaced or refreshed including timing belt.

Have binder w/ detailing all work done with receipts and pictures. Includes original sales brochure from the dealership!

Motor is 19x,xxx KM, Turbo boosts great, runs great.

Dyno’d 165hp/200tq AT THE REAR WHEELS BONE STOCK. For those of you who know car numbers you’ll see that this is outstanding for a 22 year old vehicle.

The Bad:

* * *

Damage to front driver’s fender.  
Surface rust  
Needs transmission mount  
Exhaust manifold gasket pass. side needs to be replaced. I have the gasket, just havn’t put it in yet.

## The Bottom line

I purhased this car in 2004. The seller wanted $6500 but I talked him down to $5500.

The car needed no work except new tires and a new clutch. Tires are still 80%.

After being driven through one winter and being one fender bender, I decided to garage the car until I could fix it up.

Well, I had a kid, and no longer have the time or the money to turn this into the car I want it to be, so my loss is your gain.

The Price:

* * *

Because of the little problems with the car, I’m putting it up for $3500 OBO.

The car is located in Lethbridge, but I am in Calgary. I am willing to deliver the vehicle anywhere in Alberta.

Oh man, I’ve been looking for a Z31 for ages, nothing too crazy, like a fix’r-upper, this car is perfect, just a little out of my budget at the moment. Very nice looking car.

Unfortunately, like always, something always comes up when you are low on funds, I really don’t want to lowball you, I’m not in any position at the moment to purchase another car, my wife would kill me.

haha, I feel your pain dude. I voluntarily sold my sr’d 240 when I moved out here to help us get our feet grounded and starting off, and to this day, I still regret it. All my wife hears is cars cars cars, she would lose her mind if I came home with something other than my truck lol
