Not really.

The z31s don't make much power, have a terrible rear suspension design, if you have one of the "upmarket" ones the electronic dashes die then no heat/AC/etc. The digital dashes were junk that wouldn't work with aftermarket ECU/ignition stuff.

Oh you mean the same as e21, e30, e46???

[diegom6]

It has lambo beams, so yes, it worth a lot of dinero!

[OniKyan]

Z31 are awesome. All they need is an engine conversion. VQ45.

simple and clean.

And S12?

(Except 84 non-turbo)

And all 65-89 porsche 911's?



A LOT of cars ran the trailing arm suspension setup. Nissan just executed it really, really badly.

So Nice, quoted for sexiness. now I wan't one again. they tend to really hold their value up here though, unless it is a JDM import, but then you have to deal with Rhd, which lets face it sucks outside of a GT-R.

[InuFaye]

insure it, then light it on fire

This.

My friend's z31 is neglected, but damn we have killed so many cars! Smoked a e30 vert 5 speed by like 4 car lengths

All we have is a gutted interior, big ass K&N intake and a borla exhaust (came on car). Oh and super light motegis on Toyo Proxes :D

:D

thats your big kill story to fortify your stance on how quick a Z31 300z is?

that isn't very sporting, thats like shooting a retarded puppy in a barrel.

[5Toes]

Hahaha but on paper they are near identical. Same weight and same power and even the same suspension

[Vtec?lol]

I can say this. Once you get it running properly, it will steal your heart from the e30

[e30trooper]

[brainspo0n]

I thought they were supposed to be pretty reliable

[5Toes]

They are, just that VG30E is a pain in the ass. Spark plugs we havnt done yet because it is a 2 hour job for a seasoned mechanic on these things

[e30jake]

Not sure about the non turbo z32s, but I hear the TT at least are a pain in the ass to work on because the engine is such a tight fit in the engine bay. Just something to consider before committing to doing too much work to it.
