Car: 1993 Nissan Fairlady Z32 300ZX

Engine: 3.0L VG30DE V6

Transmission: 5 Speed Manual Conversion

Kilometres: 188XXXkm (Mostly Rural KM)

Color: Dark Blue Pearl (TK3)

2 Seater Targa Top

Recently Serviced (Spark Plugs, Oil, Coolant)

Located in Millicent (Near Mount Gambier / Approx. Halfway between Adelaide and Melbourne, Willing to meet halfway for genuine Adelaide / Melbourne buyer.)

To be as transparent as possible, the car is of quite clean condition in the engine bay and interior for its age, however the exterior is where this car lets itself down. It is a 1993 Fairlady Non Turbo, and was imported to Australia in 2002.

The paint is in average condition, overall its not too bad, however the nose panel and guards are faded and peeling, there is a dent on the passenger side targa panel, passenger side guard, and a dent above the windscreen on the roof. The front bar has a couple of cracks, and the rear bar has some paint missing also. This can be repaired fairly easily or if you wanted to modify the car and give it a full body kit when fixing up the paint work. I have been quoted at $2000 for a closed door re-spray and repair for the outside of the vehicle in the same color.

The interior of the vehicle is immaculate for its age, and other than a few little things like a small cigarette burn in the front drivers seat, and the usual wear and tear on the steering wheel and handbrake levers, it is very tidy and neat. Comes with the factory rear boot shade, still has the targa top shade panels to block out sun and also comes with factory floor mats.

The car has the Turbo brakes and standard 16" Rims with roadworthy tyres, fronts are pretty much new. The car has an upgraded battery which is relatively new.

As far as performance goes the car has had a 5 speed manual conversion (reverse lights switch has been relocated to the dash below the CD player instead of being hooked up the reverse sensor on the gearbox for some reason), and has a "performance" cat back exhaust, which gives the car a decent note. I have been told it has an external fuel pump (which whines a little bit when the cars running, however I have been told this is normal for those pumps?).

The car drives fine, will provide videos of the car running, exhaust note and also of the car driving over the next few days once I can get hold of a decent camera as the phone pics above are pretty shit quality.

The car is registered in SA until January 25, 2011, and has recently passed it's inspection from NSW to obtain SA rego.

Only reason I'm selling it is because I've got the Supra as my weekender and I am doing 600+ km a week and have an Excel (shudders) for day to day duties to get me to and from work.

Chasing $6200

If theres anything else you want to know just ask and I'll try my best to answer them. In the pictures the gearboot is not on the car, however it will come with one on there.

First two are videos, the rest shows the paint work blemishes. Also, the car does have a red mirror on the passenger side, but getting both mirrors painted black.

Updated information:

The car does have a couple of issues: It surges every now and again under high acceleration, which I have been told is due to the fuel pump and filter needing replacing (it whines as it once had a crappy batch of fuel), and is currently throwing error code 34 (which is a common fault and is possibly due to the manual conversion). Apparently has turbo injectors.

I have a set of non turbo injectors that are included with the sale, as well as a spare gear shift surround and stereo surround panels, and also has a cruise control module included as well.

I have been informed the gearbox is from a Twin Turbo model, and has a heavy duty clutch.

Need it gone before Christmas so the price is $3600 FIRM. If it isn't sold by then I'll strip it down for parts.

    • I think my main complaint with your idea is that there is a veneer of idealism spread across it. You want the simple numbers to make it easier, but all they will do is make it easier for someone to come to the wrong conclusion because the fine details will kick them in the nuts. As it is right now, the tiny bit of arithmetic is NOT the obstacle to understanding what will fit and what will not fit. The reality of trying it is what determines whether it will fit. If you had a "standard rule" that R34 GTT guards have that magic 100mm space from the hub face to whichever side you were worried about, and someone said "excellent, this wheel is only 98mm in that direction, I'll just go spend $4k on them and jam them on my sick ride".....they would just as likely find out that the "standard rule" is not true because the rear subframe is offset to one side by a fairly typical (but variable) 8mm on their car and they only have 92mm on one side and 108 on the other.
    • It still combines inches with mm, especially when you have .5 inches involved, and mm and inches that can go in either direction. This would give a clear idea on both sides of the rim, right away, with no arithmetic. Even better if somebody gives you the dimensions of the arch of multiple cars. i.e GTR may be 125mm, a A80 Supra may be 117mm, or something along those lines. Yes, you can 'know' that going from a 10in rim to a 10.5in rim with the same offset moves both sides about 6mm, but you still have to 'know' that and do the math. Often it's combined. People are going from 9.5 +27 to 10.5 +15. You may do the math to know it, but if it was going from (I had to go look it up to be sure) 241mm/2 - 27 - 93.5mm from the center line to (more math) 266/2 - 15 (118mm) from the center line. Versus 93mm vs 118mm. It's right there. If you know you have a GTT with 100mm guards you can see right away that one is close to flush and the other absolutely won't work. And when someone says "Oh the GTR is 120mm" suddenly you see that the 10.5 +15 is about perfect. (or you go and buy rims with approximately 118mm outward guard space) I think it's safe to say that given one of the most common questions in all modified cars is "How do offsets work" and "How do I know if wheels will fit on my car" that this would be much simpler... Of course, nothing will really change and nobody is going to remanufacture wheels and ditch inches and offset based on this conversation :p We'll all go "18x9+30 will line up pretty close to the guards for a R34 GTT (84mm)" but 'pretty close' is still not really defined (it is now!) and if you really care you still have go measure. Yes it depends on camber and height and dynamic movement, but so do all wheels no matter what you measure it for.
    • But offsets are simple numbers. 8" wheel? Call it 200mm, near enough. +35 offset? OK, so that means the hub face is that far out from the wheel centreline. Which is 2s of mental arithmetic to get to 65mm to outer edge and 135mm to inner. It's hardly any more effort for any other wheel width or offset. As I said, I just close my eyes and can see a picture of the wheel when given the width and offset. That wouldn't help me trust that a marginal fitment would actually go in and clear everything, any more than the supposedly simple numbers you're talking about. I dunno. Maybe I just automatically do numbers.
    • Sure! But you at least have simple numbers instead of 8.5 inches +/mm, relative to your current rims you do maths with as well, and/or compare with OEM diameter, which you also need to know/research/confirm..
