Too true. As much fun as e30's are, they aren't for everyone to daily. Hell, if you are daily-ing one it's probably because it IS cheap. I know that's the reason I'm here. Being a younger guy, I can appreciate a car that is easy to work on, cheap to take care of, cheap to insure, etc. There just comes a time when you might want to step up your game. Or go ahead and keep living in the 90's.
Having driven a 350z, great choice. I know you said you're keeping it stock for now but try and get some sways for it. You'll appreciate it ;)

Still doesnt mean they do anything for me. I have no idea what a sorts car is but ive driven several newer sports cars and i like the light tossability of the e30. Maybe the Z has that, but its not for me.Leave a comment:

Massive Street kit (new, never used or installed), JL Audio XR components for the doors, SSR Type Cs. Those are the big things. May have a few little others laying around.
For the most part, Robby gave me a good deal when I bought the car back in November, so I felt obligated to return the favor. He really wanted it back and I know it's going to a good home.
Maybe I'll buy it back from him in a few years!
I've been driving old and/or beat up cars for most of life. Decided it was time to get myself something a little nicer. And I've always been a huge Nissan Z car fan.
Nope, leaving it stock.........most likely.
Apparently 18x9.5" + 275/40/18 + Hotchkis sways = 1+gs on the skipad. Pretty fucking incredible.
No, I had one. Drove it, dyno'd it, parted it, sold it.
Only 28.
The answer is below.IDK how you guys are saying you would rather drive an E30 over a 350z...
New Japanese sorts car > 25 year old German econo-box...
Even the nicest E30 in the universe is still shitty compared to a newer car like that...
Daily driving an E30 is for kids... It's nice to have a nice car. E30 makes a fun thrasher...
Drive one. 350Z has tons more bottom end than the S52 swap in an E30, rides better, turns better and I don't fracture a verterbrae every time I hit a bump in the road.
Get an E30, even part of one.
Then commence shit talking.
True. This car is a 2006 with 20k miles and I bought it for $3500 below KBB. And it's the RevUp, all 2006s have the RevUp.
Eat a horse shit covered dick, but he has a point. Most of the members of this site can't even afford to put tires on their cars.
E30s are great, love them, fun to drive, easy to work on etc. I'm just over daily driving one.Last edited by z31maniac; 04-02-2010, 02:27 PM.Leave a comment:

F the haters
If you like it then that's all that matters.
Plus I'm happy cause I got my E30 back, so I think the 350Z is friggin sweet!Leave a comment:

Bah, I'd have gone with the 370 at least. :p The VQ is a great motor, but the VQ-VHR is better. 35DE, revup or HR?
Comparing an E30 to a Z33 is stupid. The Z is the better, low maintenance car, the E30 has more soul and breaks a bunch. Both are fun in their own ways.Last edited by Wh33lhop; 04-02-2010, 12:34 PM.Leave a comment:

If that's the case, I'm sure there are a few people willing to wish ECU gremlins on ya, or even letting the dreaded smoke out of your harness in some hard to reach corner. Or fuel pump cavitation, or...
Nevermind, it's already bad enough you two are now running Nissan engines.Leave a comment:
