- Nice car, silver and black looks good. I'm interested in seeing how the Z32 subframe swap goes. I've got a 93 non-turbo parts car with 4.08 gears that i'd like to swap into my TTz. I'd like to hear from someone who's done it successfully.

- Nice looking 84, must be nice to be in rust free Texas country. I'm here in the rust belt, NY. Currently on my 15th ZX though. Love the cars..... tomwas

About
In 1984 Nissan Motors produced 75,351 of its all new 300ZX (Z31) for the United States market. Of these Z cars 5,148 limited-edition 300ZX Turbos were badged to honor Nissan’s 50th Anniversary. 84' was also the year that Datusn officially became Nissan in the US. The cost of this Z ($26,000) was very pricy for the time (todays equivalent based on inflation rates; ranges in $52,000 range)... I didn't pay that much. I got mine busted for much much cheaper.

-Blow Off Valve
