I have been thinking about this for a while now. It's really a tough decision...
3s-gte: -251hp -FWD -$4-6k -Need an auto-manual swap (another $2k) -Good looks  -Nice sound system that I've spent time and money on. 300zx TT: -300hp -RWD -$4k after selling my car -Already manual -Looks are not as good -No sound system In conclusion, the 300zx will be faster and cheaper, but with the engine swap I will get to keep the car that I've spent much of my time on and looks better. I don't know what to do!  Give me some advice...

Only buy the TT if you have money that you are willing to spend on maitenance. As said, the engine is bulletproof, but specific components WILL fail. And be sure to get a 91+, because they worked all the bugs out from the '90 model year. But if you just have to have a Z, go for a N/A...you will have less problems, but you'll probably get the hankerin' for speed.
http://www.300zxclub.com/ Easily the best resource for Z32 info on the net. There may be a lot of arseholes there, but they know their sheeyat. I used to read (not post) on a daily basis. Theres a lot of info to soak up there. |
