Since I have had it, I have replaced the alternator, brakes, tires. mostly routine maintenance stuff. it has had and new clutch cause it was stolen, and got blown. some minor thing I believe. currently there are some thing that are wrong. ac does not work, there is no sound system, the weather striping is going bad and some seals are leaking. The headliner is sagging and interior me restoration and it worth the time to restore this car.

My Z needs some TLC. but it is great running car, low miles and performance is great. the turbo kicks in at 3000rpms and you will know it. I live on a hill it, climbs it like a flat road. If you are a driver that enjoys driving, this is a good car. Fast and handles well. I love rear drive, and when you throw the shifter around you know there is some power back there. this is a Asian muscle car. you hit the gas and the hood lifts up, even on the highway. I am 6 foot and about 275 pound and this the most comfortable car I have driven. if you are looking for a fast and fun car to drive, or race the have heard of the engine puting out over 500 hp, at the rear wheel and it looks good.

Have replaced the digital dash and dash computer. Purchased a rebuilt unit from e-bay seller who repairs units. It was great to see all the lights again. Highly recommend the rebuilt units from the mid-west.

The only negative was having to remove the dash to replace.

Faults:

Alternator went out at 120000 miles.

Transmission is starting to grind when shifting fast, especially when it is hot outside.

Power antenna lowers, but will no longer go up automatically.

I love this car! I live in the mountains and commute in it daily. Great on the twisty roads and plenty of power for passing the slower cars on the road.

Handling is great. I owned a first generation Mazda RX7 for a few years and the 300ZX handles better and is much more stable.

Interior is fairly comfortable and roomy, even for my 6'1" frame. My wife owned a mid-80s Maxima and I could only drive it if my head was sticking out of the sun roof.

Overall a great car and relative bargain to own.

Faults:

Digital Dash Went Out.

Transmission 1 and 2nd Gear.

Blew Oil Rings.

Valve Guides are shot.

Rust under carpet.

Leather seats falling apart.

Rear end bushings went out.

Clutch was out.

T-Tops leak.

Head light issues.

Exaust leaks.

General Comments:

This car no matter how old or how many problems this car had it was the fastest car I have ever owned. Country roads were excellent cornering and acceleration was incredible. I kept up with a 6 speed manual 2002 Trans Am V8 with a great driver behind the wheel. With 250,000 I could not believe the power and cornering like it was new.

Nothing has gone wrong at this time.

The 300ZX is in showroom condition.

General Comments:

Not many people will find a 1984 Nissan 300ZX Turbo in showroom condition with only 29,000 miles. This particular vehicle was stored for sixteen years, prior to my purchase in 2001.

The 3.0 Turbo engine combined with the five speed Borg-Warner is an awesome package, lots of torque, close shift pattern and very solid clutch.

It is very difficult to control your desire for speed with the 300ZX, it begs you with the horsepower and again when the turbo kicks in. It's very hard to remove the smile from your face.

This is a very fun and serious sports car to drive which demands careful control of its power on acceleration, rear end has a tendency to break free on hard turns under full power.

Overall the 300ZX Turbo has a lot of good points- tight body, nice paint, strong motor, comfortable seating for two and with the proper care should give many years of quality service.

I have replaced the following items due to age and mileage - timing belt, spark plugs, spark plug wires, belts, fuel filter and tires.

I would recommend this vehicle to anyone who loves old sports cars that are fun to drive and display at car shows.

Faults:

I bought the car as is without working engine for $1500. Found one from an online source for $2300.

Need to replace the antenna and heater vent flaps.

I have several modifications done as well, but nothing else that had to be done. Just wanted more speed.

These cars have enormous potential.

General Comments:

Love at first sight.

I own two, an 84T and an 86 N/A.

For all Z owners, go to www.z31.com for anything you want to know about your car. You'll see me there, I'm Double Z.

For a total of $6000 (including purchase, engine, minor modifications), I have an awesome 10 second car.

These cars handle like a dream and are incredibly gorgeous.

Not too mention they are not very common. A definite head turner. Especially when you're passing that Porsche.

Interior, well it IS a sports car. Seats are adjustable to be curved to the body.

Faults:

Digital gas gauge.

I love my Z. I have not had any trouble with it except for the digital gas gauge. But I do love it. Really has the get up and go.
