Hello and thank you for viewing my auction for my 1986 300zx Turbo. I am very sad to see my "dream car" go , but I am starting a new school program and can't afford to keep two vehicles. My hope is that someone here on Ebay will appreciate this awesome car as much as I do.  I am the second owner of this Z and have put a lot of time and money into it. This Z has been my daily driver for the past 3 years until I bought another newer car.  Again, due to school I am needing to sell it.  That and I really feel like this vehicle deserves to be driven and tinkered with on a regular basis , time in which I will no longer have .  The car runs great , transmission shifts smooth, and  with all the cars I have driven I still feel like this car drives better than anything on the road. Below will be lists of pros and cons for your consideration,  Winning bidder please pay within 48 hours a deposit of $500.00 USD.  I will be happy to help arrange shipping with buyer .  I have used U-Ship in the past with positive results.  I have a clean title and car is ready to go anytime.  Please if you have any questions, or require more pictures let me know. Thanks for looking and happy bidding. 


Pros
1986 300zx Turbo
Rebuilt Automatic Transmission
4 Yokohoma Envigor tires in decent shape
Working adjustable suspension
T-tops don't leak
T-top shades and bags
original tool set
original spare with inflator and documentation
original owners manuals and warranty cards
original Window sticker
Probably a good 90% of all service records on vehicle including original bill of sale
Tasteful aftermarket floor mats
Eclipse stereo speakers and head unit
New Battery
New Alternator
K&N Airfilter
Taylor Spiro Plug Wires
NGK Iridium Plugs
Hood and Hatch support struts are new
Several Vacuum lines replaced
New timing belt
New water pump
New thermostat
new drive belts
Converted original headlights to much brighter safer H4 lights
Voice Warning system "Betty" Still works
Aftermarket Viper keyless entry
Passes state inspection with a breeze
Nissan Mud Flaps
Headlight washers
Factory service manuals
2 Turbo decals to replace originals for when car is painted. 
Quarter window moldings have been replaced. So, no more melting molding. 

Cons
Paint could be better
2 or 3 very very small not spreading spots of surface rust
Crack in rear taillight that isn't noticeable since its on the inside part
small 3 inch cut in front bumper
Valve cover gasket needs replacing.  Note*  I have never had to add oil and the gasket has been slightly leaking for years
AC needs service.  I was planning on converting to 134A .  Could be a simple change of a compressor from a wrecked car. 
There is something putting a 100 miliamp load on the battery with the car off.  I have determined through testing that it is caused by the 10amp fuse controlling the interior lighting system.  This fuse controls the Radio, interior lights, and AC unit. I have been taking fuse out when vehicle is parked more than a day or two to keep battery from depleting.  I suspect that the culprit is the after market radio as it has given me trouble since owning the car.  I used to drive the vehicle daily so I may never have noticed this in the past , but now that it is parked in my garage more often than not I have noticed the battery drain.  Should be a relatively easy fix. 
Radio 
Windshield washer pump may be corroded. I know the line needs replacing.  
Driver seat has some wear that is appropriate for a vehicle of this age.. With that being said, it actually doesn't look bad for its age.. but there is some wear. 
Rear hatch carpet has a black stain that wont go away.
Compass and G-force meter sometimes look crazy but work more often than not.  I suspect the radio has bad wiring and is interfering with this cluster.

Overall this is a very fun car to drive.  It , like any 26 year old car is going to have some problems.  I feel there's enough good to out weigh the bad , and with a little TLC this car can be a brilliant vehicle for many more years to come.  I have done my best in representing the condition of the vehicle and it will be sold As-Is.  Again, please ask any questions you may have before committing to purchase.  Thanks ! 

Concerning gas MPG.  Last long trip I took was 6 hours of mostly highway and I got 25mpg.  City/ Hwy approx 18-19mpg

About 20k Nissan Pathfinder, Infiniti JX models recalled for potentially faulty brakes

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for the 2013 Nissan Pathfinder and 2013 Infiniti JX due to a problem with the front brakes. The problem is a result of the brake torque member (a part that attaches the brake caliper to the front suspension), which was cast improperly with a structural weakness that could possibly lead to "reduced braking, increasing the risk of a crash," according to NHTSA. How, you ask? If the part breaks, the brake caliper could move position and possibly make contact with the wheel.
Around 20,000 of these sister crossovers are being recalled, but it doesn't sound like all were equipped with the faulty component. Dealers will inspect vehicles built between December 3, 2012 and January 29, 2013, and replace components from the defective batch. The recall goes into effect next month, but until then, the official recall notice is posted below with information for how owners can contact Nissan.

First new Datsun in decade sketched, set for Indian reveal

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

Nissan's Datsun nameplate revival will begin with two models bound for the Indian market. Nissan has released sketches of a five-door hatchback based on the Micra (codenamed K2) and a top-down view of a hood that could potentially be from a sedan.
The company's press release says all will be revealed on July 15 in New Delhi, India. The Datsun lineup will be first offered in 2014 to that country's ride-deprived residents as well as Indonesia and Russia. Later in 2014, South Africa will join the list.
We've heard Nissan plans for Datsuns to share platforms with company-owned Lada. In January, we heard the projected price tag could be around $3,000 USD to compete with Chinese imports. The official press release (which can be read in full below) says nothing about either of these reports, however.
