Pictures of my 300ZX

Since I got a request to see some pictures of my 300ZX in PM, I decided to post a few here. FYI, all the pictures of my Z are older ones before I started my tear down. The Enkei sponsor logo has since been removed and the CF hood will not be re installed.
What you see is a 1990 300ZX TwinTurbo
Toyota Millennium Silver paint
Bomex front
Wings west rear and sides
Enkei GTV wheels
Stillen SMZ wing







I am currently having my engine built and have a bunch of mods waiting patiently in the corner of my room. Once finished, it should push about 700HP at the wheel with fuel / tune and will have a different look to it. Something more subtle.
The #300 is my car number for SCCA solo II Auto cross

Thanks for posting pics. I love the front/rear body kit on that! Not so much a fan for the wing and the hood (as I like the sleeker flatter look of the stock hood) but it's a really nice Z!

If I ever get one, I'd not expect to have a TT, just one I can drive on the weekends for fun that looks and runs nice. With any luck I'll own all three of my older dream cars (The SVX, 300zx and Dodge Stealth). Prices don't seem to be so bad for the Stealth but the ZX is still up there (at least for a purchase out right with cash....).

The engine bay on that thing is silk!

Yeah, that's why I am going to re-do the body of my Z. I hope to make it similar to the silver one in this pic.

I like the rear skirt and that 240 (early 260?) is just so cool. going with the new mods sounds good.
Hope your new engine build addresses the oiling issue at the (forgot which it is) rear crank bearing or the center bearing. Had a friend that was doing 700rwhp for a bit, but lost the motor due to low oil volume on that one bearing.

I have owned many Z cars and love the 240 best. Loved the 240 w/ the L28T in it. Hella fun.

Yeah, the green Z is a 240Z. It's not mine, it belongs to another guy that was at the AX course that day.
My engine is being built by Kyle Puckett at Import Parts Pro and he addresses such issues as the one you mentioned.
