Well my friend got his for like $3500 but it was in bad shape. Most of the damage was comestic interior ,frt torn ,fender dented ,blah ,blah ,blah. Luckily the engine was in great condition and the turbos spool are loud as ---- ,sounds a ------ evil banshee or the reaper about to take a soul . We are almost done just need a little body work ,paint and some electric work and BAM.

YES, very sweet looking and I think we can all say they have no room to work in... I've had a few experiences with them and dang, pisses me off

I love those cars though, hear they are just great to drive.

Anybody ever heard of a possible RB25DET or RB26DETT (Skyline engines) into a 300zx like yours? I would think that'd be fun; you would have more engine space (if it would fit, front to back length) than that V6, and it can handle the high boost better. Would that be a 300Zline? SkyZX? dang fast, anyways.
