The Z32 Nissan 300ZX, Twin Turbo or NA, is the only 90s JDM halo car left that hasn't skyrocketed in value yet, but it's coming. Before too long, you won't be able to buy a 300ZX. Think of it like a 240SX that went to college: same layout, more engine, more turbos, more money? Maybe not the last one. These seem like a good deal so get one before it's too late. Today we scour Facebook Marketplace for Z32s and it goes pretty much how you expect.

[@harrisontownend9146]

As a mechanic that works mainly on post 2000 vehicles I can say my z32 isn't that hard to work on, beats working on nearly any euro

[@LOVE-VIBES-X-PROJECT-CARS]

I can attest to that. Yes I have loads of sockets, swivel sockets, flex head ratcheting wrenches, various length allen keys, and currently looking at R.B.R.T tools to replace my impact driver.

[@wingspantt]

I bought two entire sets of socket wrenches after getting this car, and I thought I had enough before. Extension set with two different lengths and a micro set of wrenches that can fit in super tight spaces. And I still skinned my knuckles

[@wingspantt]

The Z32 300ZX was my dream car since I was a kid. Hell, I bought a 240SX as a stopgap back before they are cool. After finally buying the Z I can say it lived up to the hype, as well as the stigma about needing difficult repairs. The car is an absolute dream to drive. You feel like you're the goddamn protagonist of the road. It's so responsive and eager, while also refined and classy. Most cars like this cost far far more, not that the Z was cheap in its heyday. Repairs though SUCK. In my experience the car is super reliable, but when even the smallest thing goes, it will be 2x-3x more work (or shop cost) than most cars. For fucks sake, I tried to change the air filter and it ended up being easier to just *swap the intake* to a pop than to reinstall the nightmare of a skin-scraping nose box Nissan demanded! That said, the car is an absolute beauty and timelessly designed. Even the interior somehow escaped the ugly 90s mess that you'll find in the Supra or the 3000GT. Tasteful. Classy. Minimalistic, but also enthusiastic for the driver to take control. And yes, very roomy and comfortable, even for 6'+ drivers. There's a reason Car and Driver put this Z on the Top 25 Cars of All Time list... FOR TEN YEARS IN A ROW. Drive one ONCE and you'll understand. Fix one once... And you'll curse yourself for falling in love for such a demanding machine!

[@ThatProjectZcar]

This is all true. I love my 300zx but it's definitely a curse for liking such a needy car.

[@2wheelcobra]

What's so bad about a 3000gt vr4 interior? It's miles ahead of the Supra. (currently have both)

[@wingspantt]

@@2wheelcobra I agree it's better than the Supra, but I find the instrumentation and knobs very bulky and clunky compared to say Nissan's

[@2wheelcobra]

@wingspantt that may be true (ive never been in a 300zx to compare) But both my vr4s had well over 100k and everything held up well. I've been down the 300zx rabbit hole the last few days, and I've seen multiple owner videos complaining about those switch pods on both sides of the cluster having issues holding up over time. Regardless, I do like the 300zx interior a lot. I need to get behind the wheel of one...I'd love to have a nice NA 2+2 t-top car, and LS swap it if the motor ever goes.

[@brodybreaksbmws]

The 300 with the LS at 32:00 is a guy ive talked to personally, he keeps the car turned down at 480 for normal driving but turns the psi up and makes 900whp easily. He was banned off of our local drag strip due to how fast it was making it while refusing a roll cage.

So the reason the slicktop (or "hardtop") twin turbo automic car would be worth purchasing as a RHD is because they never offered slicktop twin turbo cars outside of Japan. In North America the slicktops were only ever NA cars. Also in Japan most of the twin turbos made were 2+2, but all twin turbo's in America were short wheelbase cars. All slicktops regardless of region or engine aspiration were short wheelbase cars. The only way you can get a LHD slicktop twin turbo would be a Na-t build or a full twin turbo swap. Also the guys asking in the 30's aren't dreamers, depending on the spec and milage it's very realistic!

There were _definitely_ 2+2 300ZXs. These are likely the more desirable cars today (longer wheelbase). As other, more knowledgeable individuals have pointed out, Twin Turbo 2+2s were only available in Japan (RHD) from factory, so that's definitely worth the clarification presented in the ad.

I'll give it this, as I found out years ago, this along with the 3000gt are definitely mechanics cars, meaning you gotta be good at taking things apart, doing deletes, having unorthodox tools you wouldn't need for other cars to get jobs done on this one but I'm the end it's worth it. Either that or you go with 2 options that involve you finding a good z32 specific mechanic. 1, save up money get a really good one so that you can enjoy it for a long while or 2, get one that has simple mechanical issues that can be repaired for less than an arm and leg and then enjoy it.

I've never gotten to drive the twin turbo model, but my mechanic bought one new in the 90s and said he loved the car to death, but there's virtually no space in the engine bay to work on it. I have been around the NA model both auto and manual and I can say confidently that an NA 2+2 Z32 I would love to daily right now and it's one of my dream cars. They just drive so good and both the Z31 and Z32 were meant to be GT cars so they're actually really comfortable. It sucks that the NSX/Supra/Skyline/FD are all priced out of range for most people now, but of the remaining affordable 90s JDM halo cars, the Z32 is the winner imo, SVX is a pain to get parts for now and most are the FWD model anyway, and this is anecdotal but every 3000GT/Stealth I've seen has had issues and they multiply exponentially if you try to get any more horsepower/torque out of one. Not gonna lie though if you go back a decade I do think the A70 Supra and FC Turbo 2 if you can find a good one of either is also a great choice for old JDM.

After shopping for a few as a daily the interior has to be right, most the cheaper fwd SVX have terrible multi grey shaded interior but when the design works and is amazing only seems to show in Beige and woody shades of up scale models, the common super cheap grey shaded one just looks old, cheesy even in grey velour.

3k vr4's are still affordable, y'all should know that since you covered them, which imo you guys(Well most people really) give them more shit than they deserve, I may be biased but they're really slept on cars imo, and they aren't nearly as unreliable as many people suggest, like any old sports car if you buy a good (ie. clean, ie. not basket case hoopdy) they're solid, and if you don't not so much. I routinely drove mine 5 hrs back and forth from md to pa for 2 years, only issues I had we're due to PO driving it in NY winters, blew out a brake line on one trip, and a heat shield fell half way off on another, not a single issue otherwise on those trips. That said they aren't faultless, lifter tick and caved oil pans from TB changes causing spun bearings are the 2 biggest issues imo, but both fairly easily remedied/prevented. In stark contrast to my shitbox DSM, but I knew exactly what I was getting into there and to me it is worth it since the shell was mint and it had a 6 bolt in it. Honestly I've always been surprised the 300z's are going for more, but maybe that's bc they have a much longer lineage, that still spans to current day. In any case, both cars are the redheaded step childs of the halo cars. R34's are cool and all, but onobtanium, back when I got into cars and wanted a JDM I wanted one of them more. But it can't hold a candle to 3k in looks or price, and even modded the r34 will take the lead, but the fastest 3k's aren't all that far off imo, and I suspect it's more to due with the fact that there just aren't many people pushing the limits of the 3k and the 6g72, that said I'm shooting for at least 600 to wheels, maybe close to 1k depending on how brave I get and what the turbos I have in mind will be up for, they're good for 1120 on paper. Should be finally getting her back from body and paint in spring or early summer. Buying all my parts for the build before I start it for once, because I don't want it in pieces for half a decade, hoping to start the build in 2-5 years, still gotta get a donor engine(engine in it is fine, but again I want to cut downtime), internals, turbos and a trans build, have most of the rest of what I need. On a side note, if you guys happen to read this whole comment, it's certainly entertaining to see all the basket cases on the marketplace, but you guys might consider showing what a given car CAN be, when actually taken care of and or modded tastefully and not on a shoestring budget. We all know the basket cases are rarely worth it, but the alternatives are in scarce supply these days.

Surprised you guys haven’t covered the early-mid-late 2000s Lexus SC430. Those are still a bargain! Whoops…

My 93 turbo with 70k miles was 13k shipped and with import fees, insurance isn’t any different really.

To me, these are equal to the 3000GT VR-4. A superbitch to work on. Not as desirable as the other halos. But cool AF.

The problem every 300ZX has is the vacuum tube that sucks money directly out of your bank account.

I never understood why people prefer hard top 300zxs. Classic 80s-90s is totally t top and targa top. Hard top doesn't have the nostalgia to me. Also, 1) I think the main reason they're less popular is because they require an engine swap to really get the most out of the engine bay. Working on VG30s is a huge pain so its better to swap them 2) the other reason they're not as sought after is because there are still a ton of clean examples. Maybe not perfect but definitely better than 240s. I mean look at how many there are in this video. Anybody that wants one can find one.
