Hi, i’m just about to buy '92 300zx 2+2 (non turbo, auto) and i really need all the help i can get. The car has 203k km with a rebuilt tranny which are fine but the car has some electrical issues.  
I just got out of univ and i’m broke so i can barely aford the $2k let alone spending on the repairs for this car. so i’m just buying the car for now and will do the repairs when i start making money.

So i need you guys to tell me of a good and honest mechanic who’s experienced with z32s to certify the car at a reasonable price (under $300). i know its asking for too much but i really hope you guys can help me.

Thanks,

sony

since you’re a n00b try whitehead, finch/weston … if they’re still around, they specialized in z’s… they will probably be able to guess the fault

cert will cost you $75 on avg, as long as the lights/brakes/seatbelts and such work you can pass
