  • In todays video (which took way too long to shoot and edit lol) I break down the cost of my 1990 Nissan 300zx, the parts car for it, and all of the aftermarket upgrades on the project. If you want to build a similar Z32 hopefully this can help you out! Drop a comment and subscribe :)

    This is the best 2+2 I have ever seen. I cant believe I see claimed Z owners on here hating. Ive been driving Nissans my whole adult life and 3 of my cousins own Z32's. I have never once ran into a Nissan guy or girl that's a hater like this fool in the comments.

    I got mine in excellent condition and it’s been a battle to keep it stock. It’s auto but it’s Pearl white white ,black leather interior that’s 10/10 t tops don’t leak 👍🏻 came with the polished wheels for 4k. I I usually modify cars within a month or 2 but I’ve had this car for a few years now it’s still all stock 😂

    I had the same wheels on my TTZ. A friend basically gave them to me because they came on his Plymouth hot rod project and he didn't like the way they looked.
    Really miss that car.

    Okay what drew my eye to your Z was the slicktop look with a 2+2 body.
    I never thought of just wrapping the T Tops on a Z. I think that was a great idea. Personally I still like the regular 2 seat Z32, I might just have to get one now.
    Thanks!

    A bro had one since we were in highschool, rolling around in civics and bs, man's had a gold , late model, TT zx would dust us everyday. His was an original Fairlady Z car from Japan, mostly stock with just uprated Garrett's & furlong with the only suspension we could have that still kept the 4 wheel steering...never forget the day he dropped his T top and it shattered 😂 don't think any of us were as upset when blowing up or totalling cars as he was with 1 T top for months and a box as a roof😂😂😂 aaah ... too bad he sold it before I got into all wheel drives and got revenge tho

Really awesome build I am very inspired to build my Z32 up and look all pretty. :D

    Honest question to the tuner community: Is it a high safety concern regarding replacing the original steering wheel with a racing style steering wheel that does not contain an airbag? Maybe I'm just old, but Is be concerned about getting in an accident without an airbag. Can someone please weigh in? Drive safe, all.

    • @UnderRatedGarageYT
      @UnderRatedGarageYT  Před 5 měsíci

      This car didn’t have any airbags to begin with, but I believe the 1993 and newer models did. I’m not sure about the safety aspect to be honest!

  • @Vgk36
    @Vgk36 Před 7 měsíci +1

    I gave up TWICE 😂 once on a 2+2 then again on a 2+0. Both were NA. I also thought I would swap them one day. With a loj ls kit. (The kit alone is 10 grand) went to a hardcore zenki with a sr20.
    Liked it. But if i popped that sr It would have made the car worthless.
    Now i found true bliss with my hellrot e36 coupe.
    Staying here. Once the looks are dialed ill turbo the m50. Nice car respect for finishing it. I just didnt love the chassis enough especially with the funky front suspension.

    lowring the cars body is wrong, the body will get the ground and the car will rust away from below. steering is a problem too in lowerd cars. the Nissan 300ZX is on of the best cars ever and specially one of the best made in japan sportscaes from the 90s. these cars are like world cultural heritage buildings and need to likewise be preserved forever. its to bad when they're lowerd like that set-up to be destroyed.

    its to low to the ground, it will hit the ground somewhere and then rust away from below. the original suspension drives better than lowering these cars. the icy blue color is nice, i would like that with an intense all red interior. underlight is nice, i like that and if its red or orange, that can be i think better for safety. $18500 is compared to what sportscars cost today a low price and that gets one of the nicest looking cars ever, the Nissan 300ZX. that engine can do with a turbo like 567HP on the wheels without a problem.
