1990 Nissan 300zx Turbo 652rwhp on 2040-cars
Soddy Daisy, Tennessee, United States
The color is Silverstone (WV2) from the 350Z (car was originally silver). It was painted by a highly skilled and meticulous painter in an extremely nice downdraft paint booth. The top of the car has also been painted black - along with the pillars between the side windows and quarter windows as well as the T-Top Bar. The employees of Z1 Motorsports said it was one of the nicest paint jobs on a 300zx they had ever seen. Unfortunately, there was a mishap when trailering the car and damage occurred to the nose. Upon sale I can provide the contact information of the painter. Also the driver's side door is slightly out of alignment. New driver's side door hinges will come with the car. This car was built by my father, a master technician at Nissan for over 18 years. He has also built several other performance 300ZX cars. However, the last motor rebuild was done by Custom Concept Motorsports when i redesigned their website. This car was converted from an Automatic to a 5 Speed. The car was originally a Twin Turbo. As with the paint, Z1 Motorsports commented on how well everything was put together. After the last round of upgrades were installed and the motor was broken in properly, I took it to Z1 Motorsports where it was tuned and dynoed. There is a low tune and a high tune as detailed below. The tune in the car now is very safe. Z1 had the low tune set at 520hp, but I asked them to dial it back to 500 instead of trying to get the maximum amount of power possible. Therefore, you should be able to have fun driving this car without having to worry about damaging the motor. I also have instructions from Z1 Motorsports about how to set things up for 100 octane fuel. Motor has ~5k miles on it now.
The car is kept in my garage, and while I don't have every receipt, I do have most - espically the more recent ones. The car has not been smoked in, and the interior is in great shape. The seats, steering wheel, shifter, shifter boot, and e-brake boot are all new with red stitching. The radio has been replaced with the Alpine W-927HD unit. This is the new Double DIN unit with bluetooth phone and navigation. There is also a backup camera installed with the radio as well. Also installed is an Apline type-R 10" subwoofer in a z-enclosure box with custom bracket so it does not slide around in the back. Power locks were added and there are two remotes. There are no issues with the transmission or any other part of the drive train and the A/C works great. The car does need a new clutch, and there is a very slight power steering leak.

Nissan recalls over 220k Altima sedans over hoods that could fly open
Fri, 10 Oct 2014Nissan will be recalling 220,000 Altima sedans, according to a new recall bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Apparently, model year 2013 Altimas built between March 6, 2012 and February 28, 2013 are at risk of their hoods flying open at speed.
According to NHTSA, debris, corrosion and interference between the hood's inner panel and the secondary latch lever could bind the mechanism in the unlatched position. While this in itself won't cause the hood to fly open - there's still a primary latch that needs released from within the cabin - it presents a potentially dangerous situation should the primary latch be accidentally released.
Nissan will begin notifying owners of the affected vehicles, who will need to report to their local dealer for free repairs. Scroll down for the full bulletin from the government safety watchdog.
Updated Nissan Micra gets fresh look, more tech and 'New' name
Wed, 11 Sep 2013A few months ago, Nissan gave the Micra (which is not for US consumption) a substantial styling update that included new front and rear fascias, and stuffed more technology into the interior, such as USB ports and auxiliary inputs for audio and a new media touchscreen. Though it's still based on the same fourth-generation architecture, Nissan now calls it the New Micra.
Overall the New Micra - also known as March in some markets - looks similar to but more taut than the vehicle that launched in late 2010, thanks to more angular headlights, a new bumper, a sculpted hood and a revised grille with the Nissan logo sitting inside a chrome V, which establishes a stronger link to Nissan's "corporate look." The rear end receives less-drastic changes, such as a new bumper, LED taillamps and a new infill panel at the bottom of the tailgate.
For all of the details on Nissan's five-door city car, take a look at the press release below, and be sure to check out our live gallery from Frankfurt.
How and why Nissan nearly killed off Infiniti
Fri, 25 Jan 2013Launched in 1990, Infiniti was expected to be Japan's answer to BMW (Lexus would end up chasing Mercedes-Benz). Yet things went awry almost right out of the gate. Overlooking the fledgling automaker's now infamous early marketing campaign, its product line over the past twenty-four years has been a roller coaster ride of strong hits (Q45, FX35 and G35) and frustrating misses (M30, I30 and QX4).
In a recent interview with Ward's Auto at the Detroit Auto Show, Nissan Executive Vice President Andy Palmer revealed that the company's luxury brand was almost cancelled by CEO Carlos Ghosn as unnecessary. Infiniti, like most premium marques owned by a volume manufacturer, had fallen into the trap of losing autonomy and pushing its high-end product just like its mainstream models.
The one obvious exception to this industry blunder, said Palmer, was VW Group's Audi brand. Realizing that Audi's impressive comeback over the past two decades shamed even that of actor Robert Downey Jr., Nissan hired Audi veteran Johan de Nysschen to bring Infiniti to its intended glory - and protect it from extinction.
