    Z31 2+2 auto in need of restoration

    I have had this car for about 15 years and have some fun with it, but I no longer have the time to look after it. It is a 1988 model with 60,000 miles on the clock and most of the bodywork is a solid as a rock, as the person i bought it off turned it into a show car and sprayed it with Waxoyl...

    Cheshire / Manchester meet up?

    Hi, My Z31 hasn't been MOT'd for 2 years, but if someone could throw a date out in the Spring, then i will aim to get it to the venue. I have owned it for around 15 years and never been to a meet! This Holmfirth gig should be a breeze for us northeners.

    Hi, excuse my ignorance, but when you say you want a 2+2, which model are you refering to?

    nissan 300zx z31 nt project car auto.

    I have a 1988 Nissan Z31 Non turbo zx300 auto that has done less than 60,000 miles and is as solid as a rock. It was a car that i bought 12 years ago, intending to bring it back to pristine, but due to work commitments, I have this car sat on my drive, and i don't have the time to finish off the...

    Does anyone have anything good to say about automatic gearbox ?

    I really dont have a problem with an automatic box, especially when you can select 1st and 2nd gear before you select drive. The gears don't change until you hit red line. It's like having tip tronic on your gear shift, without having a clutch pedal until you hit the legal speed limit. I also...

    rusted turbo Z31 options

    Looking at the photo at the top of the listing, you are on a one track hiding to nowhere. If i had the facilities and time, i would make you an offer for the bits to add the turbo, but i haven't. The car i have got weighed 1.7 tons when it was manufactured, and it probably still weighs the same...

    rusted turbo Z31 options

    I may have the answer to your problem. I have this Z31 that i have had for at least 12 years. It has 59000 on the clock and it starts on the button. It was a show car, and i know for a fact that the previous owner spent several thousands of pounds on this car to get it to where it is. It is...

    What did you do to your Z this week?

    I didn't build this thing, i am just keeping it looking good and legal. Apparently, the grills are off an Almera, but would require a whole new nose cone to get rid of them. I am already looking at a blow-over to regularise the 40 different colours of red. The question on the grills is down to...

    What did you do to your Z this week?

    used this lockdown time to try to restore this Z31. Luckily, the guy i bought it from Waxoyled and undersealed the entire car, so there was very little rust. I have had it for 13 years, but the last 3 , it has sat on the drive and totally neglected. I have taken the speedo out and put it back...

    1988 Z31 restoration nearing completion

    Hi Z Heads, its been a couple of years since i last reported on my ZX300 Z31 2+2 auto. I regret to admit that it has been neglected for the last 2-3 years, but because it was waxoiled and undersealed by the person i bought it from, the damage is only cosmetic. Due to the lockdown, I have found...
