"80's Daydream" | 1984 Datsun 300ZX Z31

[@gloriousdeadman2127]

I just wanna come back with an update to my previous comment I made a year ago. I finally got the Z31 barnfind of mine back on track and today I got it hauled to a shop I work in and got her to run and idle for a short while. This video kinda gives me some of the motivation I need to keep working on that car and breathe new life into it. Seeing what it could be with some time and hard work. She deserves the road again.

[@panchocoyote3608]

Great car. 86T here.

[@4dscdriver]

These cars will put a smile on your face. I miss my 86T.

[@itzybp1985]

In the process of getting my field find 85' NA 2+0 back on the road. Ive had this car for 3 years ago, raced it, broke it, rinse and repeat. No plans on getting rid of this thing, especially since i just dropped some money on a Schneider 280h grind cam! Its also cool to see someone with an almost identical wheel setup lol. Love my Formula Meshs! Awesome video!

[@richcxx]

Dude that is one f the nicest 300zx I’ve seen. Sounds great too

[@tvbuu]

Beautiful. Older cars were so much more creative with the efforts they put in

[@malformedmalice7517]

I am about to buy an 85 300zx NA with 37,000 miles on it. Wish me luck

[@CowboySkeetbop]

Thought I was the only one who called the 84 a Datsun!💕

[@tommybirdsong2606]

Badass video, I love my z31 and this video made me even more proud to be a part of the community

[@TWA88T]

Had mine going on 25 years.... Still amazing every time I have a chance to take her out for a ride!

[@C.I.A_Unclassified]

[@vikiblackmore1663]

Thanks! Glad you like it 😊

[@jdgomez1237]

I miss mine 😭 had a burgundy 84 and a black 86. I wish I still had them. Maybe one day I’ll have the money to buy another.

[@gloriousdeadman2127]

I just recently found a barn 300zx Z31 and because of my dad I always grew up with a passion for cars. I’m currently trying to resurrect her. Won’t let a car like that rot.

[@javababa7269]

240z in the back

[@sj380wastaken]

600th like absolutely beautiful...

[@timeoy]

Hey. I watched your video before I bought one. I really love mine too. I smile every time I look at it too.

[@940joey2]

Awesome! I drift a z31

[@TWA88T]

Great video.. Now if the damn snow would go away i could get mine out of the barn too.

[@alcyon2sp]

You seem to be born in the 90s yet you love the 80s.

[@Ryaaann92]

This is incredible! You’re so clever. Absolute boss of a car too 😍

[@zinorob1]

Grand job...Cheers!

[@jasonclaret1321]

Liking the reference to Risky Business at 1m35. Loving the car!

Good job! Enjoy it!!

[@tomburns4669]

Bro, great video! Im buying one this weekend and im so excited.

[@modgrip805]

I can't decide if these are good looking or not. You may be pushing me towards the affirmative. Nice whip.

[@InherentTrash]

I felt the same way when i bought my 87 but trust me, they grow on you and they’re 80s asf

[@mr.mercury4247]

There are two types of guys who work on cars: "I could never have done this without all the support from my friends and family." And "How much did they hurt you?" "Enough."

[@awayelement5868]

Cool Z31 I have got an 83 model special edition (shadow) from my pop but it also has holes were they should not be but I am slowly doing it up but cool car

[@march4025]

Cool to see a slick top

[@jaygem_media6214]

about to buy one myself

[@IndefiniteWander]

DO IT!!! Best purchase I made even though I had to rebuild the entire car.

[@GForceVRX]

Beautiful car mate congrats! I used to own a z31 (wish I still did) it was a manual turbo targa top, I loved it. The only thing I wish it was the short wheel base model like yours. Here in Australia we only got the 2+2 version

[@chris_purves]

Love it! Well done for restoring it

[@BrickMuffin]

perfect

[@jy1235689]

1984 here too

[@rickieparker2202]

I like the sound is that stock muffler or aftermarket?

[@robbyg1311]

Beautiful car, and great Vid! ... Can you please measure your oil dipstick for me? Bought an 86T and the stick was broken and cant find a replacement anywhere. I'll fab one up once I have the measurements, otherwise I'm terrified to drive it :(

[@Rndmendez]

ebay has it

[@danielstephens840]

Very well film Although why would you buy a left hand drive in the UK? Very odd

[@HippieGeeks]

Maybe just for having something different? I would hop on a right-hand drive car in the states in a heartbeat! Different can be fun!

[@IndefiniteWander]

The uk market only received 2+2 long wheel base models, this was the only option other than import one from Japan and I didn't have that kinda money haha. Plus left hand drive is more interesting in the uk for sure.

[@clarkkent4991]

🏁🏆🏁

[@JacksonSilva-fu4jr]

Where did you find the 4 lug wheels I’m having a lot of trouble finding some for mine

[@Pdfflyer1]

I feel same way. Nissan 300zx turbo

[@JustABrownGuylol]

Watching videos on ones that run make me sad bc i just bought one and it doesnt xD

[@whois20]

It’s ok me too it’s been 2 months since I had her she’ll come around

[@shoemuncher744]

very fucking cool

[@abdullaalsumaiti4976]

Can you tell me the size for the wheels rims please

[@schmoopDJ]

how difficult was it to shave off the license plate holder? looks so good

[@williamgriffen1024]

Bbs!!!:)

[@sunilayya8948]

Nice. It was my favourite car until the z32 came along in 1990.

[@shingoose6197]

What exhaust is that?

[@vikiblackmore1663]

It's a custom straight through to back box, running MSA manifold.

[@DavidB-rx3km]

Every cliche in the book

[@JD-hu9sg]

People wear driving gloves? 😂

[@TheHomeExpert5]

Good cinematography, but your microphone sucks, and the music is an annoyance.
