Well, I’m not really a newbie on the site per-say, but I never did officially introduced myself when I signed on therefore I am reinstating my newbie status.
I was looking for anything against this in the forum rules but couldn’t find anything. Admins, if you feel this is inappropriate in any way, please feel free to lock/close this thread.
I drive a 1990 Nissan 300ZX, and I’ve just converted it to TwinTurbo (also the basis of introducing myself so late in the game)
Here are the specs
1990 Nissan 300ZX TT
Full performance exhaust
Underdrive pulley
Lightened Flywheel
Stage III Clutch
APC Intake
KSport Coilovers
Adjustable Upper control arms (all around)
Adjustable Tension Rods
Stainless Steel Braided Brake Lines
Z1 13" Big Brake Rotor upgrade (Soon to install)
Stage III Performance ECU upgrade (Soon to purchase from funkd5)
18"x8.5" and 18"x10.5" 5spoke wheels (Staggered setup)
Kuhmo Rubber
… And without giving too many details, the list continues

Thanks everyone. I can’t thank you all enough.
I owe you guys a lot.
i still need my 99 front bumper painted then they’ll be the same i guess
havent seen your rear end though (the car obviously) ive got the 99 tails and stock rear
but yeah apart from the chrome it looks the same as mine once my front gets painted
is yours black metallic aswell or was there a straight black?
wouldnt mind taking some pics of it with my car sometime
let me know if you’re up to that
oh yeah and nice list of mods done
how long have you had the ksports though not trying to burst your bubble just putting up a caution
2 out of 4 of mine on my other car blew after 3 weeks then like 1 month after the other 2 blew so needless to say i wasnt impressed
my z has tein coilovers in the back and buddyclub coilovers up front and well obviously it rides better than blown out ksports just curious to see how long you had them and if they had any issues with you.
Swap is amazing. Pulls with the big guns even though I have the exhaust wastegates disconnected. When I change the fuel pump I’ll bump up the boost.
I’m not too concerned about the plates. I guess it’s an option but it adds to the “Reality” of the pic.
Mine and Terrys turn? Turns to do what?
Yeah, I can probably do this week. I’ll let you know. Busy things now that I have a weeks worth of work to catch up on, and I still need to change the fuel pump on my car.
I’ll send you a PM with all those things, but the back just has regular USDM tailights and a special bumper.
The car is Black Metallic and I’d love to take some pictures. I think actually it was called Diamond Metallic Black or something. That would be awesome (LHD/RHD Pics)
The Ksports have been on a couple weeks. Rides like a rock.
If I have time. I’m planning on staying late at work tomorrow and changing my fuel pump after that. Where did you want to chill?
I was hoping if I could fit it in I would wetsand and polish by the time it got cool outside.
