Cars like this is probably why I grew up fond of Japanese cars; incredibly powerful, fuel-efficient (for it's time), great looks, attention to details & reliability to top it off. Most American & European cars manufactured during this time often can't make the same claims. Even though it's nearly 20 years old, I still will gladly take this 300ZX Twin Turbo over a 350Z or even a 370Z. The VG30DETT sounds amazing vs. the newer larger VQ35 & VQ37 motors.

I bought the first shipment into San Francisco - 1 per dealer - a red 1990 Twin Turbo Z for $35,000 with leather interior. I waited to buy the same car (non Turbo) my Infiniti 2005 G35 for the same $35,000 - identical specs 300hp, weight ext. I dumped another $10K for about 35hp with Stillen Exhaust, Cold Air intakes, short throw stick (love), catback exhaust - way louder and funner than my ticket me red Z was - a silver stealth G. Back in 1990 it was the fastest super car beating the Corvette and the 911 (no turbo that year.). I had a license plate frame that said Porsche Substitute with what would be now illegal terrosist plates - 911SREZ. ;-). I also raced a Testerossa convertable like the video game with a guy and his blond girlfriend from Skyline out to the Beach in woodside. Well, when the bottomed out on a turn, sparks flew and he almost lost it, I'd say the Z won. When I passed him at 120, we were even, and finally got to HW 1 at San Gregorio - we did a 1/4 race up hill... now with 350hp over my 300hp in the Z, he pulled out about a 100 feet in front of me, when we crested the hill at 100mph, I decided, that was enough of a road match and turned around. When I drove back, there was an empty cop car that we blew by at the top of the hill at 100mph! True Story. FYI - driving the new auto Infiniti Q60 with 400hp+ auto - it's fast but heartless and quiet. I'll take my old cars anyday. Lastly google - Ridley Scoot Twin Turbo 300ZX 1990 ad, it ran once during the superbowl and was banned - awesome blade runner ad.

A few critiques from an owner of this exact model / color scheme 1991 model TT. First - you put the key in upside down 1:44. Next - the vent near the driver door 13:30 - that is not to blow air on your legs - that's a vent that matches up with the door when closed to deliver air on the driver / passenger windows for vent located on door. These are nits - overall this is an excellent overview of the 90's Z car!
@ThePsychoGamer133710 жыл бұрын
well you can put the key in either way, still works and at 13:30 i dont think he is talking about the vent pictured because he says "vent BENEATH the steering column"

khan brah I didn't say it wouldn't work upside down, just that's the way he put the key in. Also, you're wrong. He's clearly making note of the large air vent being shown on camera. Almost EVERY car has "feet" vents - go take a look at the vent controls on whatever type of car you drive. If he actually knew what that vent was for, he'd point it out because how many cars of that era have air vents actually inside the door?

Haha, I love it when you do modern-classic cars. Great video. I have only one complaint and it has nothing to do with your video. When you were shifting, you were pushing the gas too hard too soon. That's why you spiked the rpm a few times and skidded the tires going into second. That's really bad for the transmission. You should only be giving it enough gas to keep the rpm in the optimal range while the clutch is in motion. After you completely let go of the clutch, THEN you can nail the gas. This is better for the transmission as it reduces slipping and jarring and makes the car and more stable.

No the Z didn't beat the Supra...In all honesty, they were all right at the 5 sec mark or a few ticks below for supra and Vr-4 because of AWD for the vr-4. Look at the rest of the cars during that time period. An E36 M3, even though I love M3's just didn't have enough power and then it took until 2001 to bring the E46 M3, which definitely compares. The first 300zx twin turbo was a 1990, 3000GT VR-4 in 1991 and rx-7 and supra in 1993.

Shifting to neutral is both dangerous and inefficient/not economical
@MrPinkleton10 жыл бұрын
Why is it dangerous?
@luki0111110 жыл бұрын
Charlie Allen Because you don't have control over the car when in neutral, and holding steering wheel like that is just stupid.

Americans should really have to take driving lessons in a manual before they are allowed to drive one.
@ernestochang17446 жыл бұрын
coasting to neutral is actually recommended when coming to a stop, instead of riding the clutch and be stuck in 1st gear when you come to a stop. And besides brakes are cheaper then a new clutch, and no putting the car into Neutral is not inefficient, and no shifting into neutral does not make you loose control of the car, if anything it actually alleviates your legs and saves more on fuel, because that way your engine doesnt have to turn any gears to get going and it keeps your RPMs low, however be warned that if youre not coming to a stop you should engage the right gear, and in some extreme cases rev match the gear so that the transmission doesnt jolt or vibrate, when it pulls it up to 5,000 rpm or hell who knows, maybe youre such a bad driver you accidentally shifted down so much youre not even in the right gear and it goes past 6,500 way over the red line. If it bogs down a little that means you dint rev match properly, if you shifted down and it went past redline thats really bad and in the long run if you keep doing this over many years it will actually hurt more the transmission then the actual clutch itself, there is no rocket science here, just pure mechanic physics at work, and i suggest you catch up on it before posting false information. With that being said, the guy in the video coasting on neutral at that speed then engaging the gear and not rev matching definetly vibrated the transmission a bit, if he keeps doing that for long, hes gonna have a pissed off mechanic in his hand and a hefty bill

Instead of down shifting to slow the car down, the driver puts it in neutral and brakes. He needs a lesson on how to drive a manual.

Uh, putting it in neutral and braking is better on the car. What's more expensive, the clutch or brakes?
@travisgisme10 жыл бұрын
Stevenhiggles though its better to wear your brakes out before your clutch when doing that youre losing safety. If somebody was to pull out infont of you, swerve into your lane etc, you're not in as much control over the car as you would be in gear.
@kdu800410 жыл бұрын
It's 100% unnecessary to downshift to slow down unless you are descending a steep grade. And with modern cars, brakes are a lot more heat resistant so there is almost no need to downshift descending a hill.
@fishtankfreak10 жыл бұрын
Depending on what state you live in (assuming you are from the US) it is illegal to place the car in neutral to apply the breaks. Despite how easy it may be. The thought process that +Juan Gonzales mentions is why.

Whoever was doing the driving wouldn't pass a driving test in this country. Driving around a sweeping bend with one hand resting on the gear stick and the other hand on the bottom of the steering wheel; frequently coasting in neutral. Truly terrible driving.

Here is just an idea. PUT THE WHEELS ON RIGHT!!! The braking system of a 300zx relies on the wheels rotating in the correct direction. These wheels are directional. If you want to know what to look for when buying a 300zx goto my website and under the resource tab you will find the link to my page.

My all time favorite of the 90's JDM crowd (NSX, Supra Turbo, RX-7, 3000GT VR-4). Great video taking me on a trip down memory lane. My uncle had a 74 260Z and I loved that car so much as a kid. He took me to my first IMSA race at Road Atlanta and the (then) new 300ZX made its debut there and I was in love! I sure wish Nissan (and the others) still made cars like this (though the 370Z ain't bad)...
