Default '85 300zx Turbo

Well, my friend went out and got a 1985 300zx turbo in awesome shape, but the turbo is junk.. doesn't even spin. We got a used one and we are currently removing the turbo now... and it's quite a job. Has anyone else had a little experience in this area? It's not like a honda under that hood.. EVERYTHING is freakin' tight... Those cars are not friendly to work on. You should see how much work it takes to dig down into that thing

Oh well, it's a neat car and it's very fun to drive.. (not exactly fast, but feels good)

Z-car Atlanta
770-446-1090
I got the wategate actuator off of one there, and they do ship.
I'm looking for the link to the z-car yards around the country.

I have the print-out in my lap, but my scanner is at home.

hahahaha welcome to the world of the Z. My friend has a 95 or something TT 300z. They have hoses and ---- coming from everywhere ,i mean you can't even see the turbos. Its a awesome car though wants to haul *** as soon as you give it gas. We were playing around and did a massive 8 ft long burnout ...... it was cool

My Z is a boat. Small little 171CI engine in a giant engine bay. Extremely easy to work on.
