I RARELY GET ON ZILVIA.

So here's the deal. The car is holding me back as far as drifting goes. I want more speed and angle. I leave for the Marines in less than 4 weeks. To get better at drifting I'm gonna have to start from scratch so I'm considering new platforms to build. More than likely I will keep this Z so if I don't offered enough then no problem. Asking $5000obo and you have less than 4 weeks to come up with the cash. If you think I'm asking too much then too bad. I doubt there are more than a couple dozen Z31's in the US that are this clean, turbo, and with this many modifications.

Car is a 1985 300ZX 2 seater with T-tops. Originally a non-turbo 5 speed. Body has about 240k. Even though it is 22 years old there are no major defects/dents/shit that doesn't work. Speedometer does not work. 85's used a speedometer cable. 87T trans uses an electronic speed sensor.

let me see some feedback. No Z31 love? Asking too much?

Car is rock solid. Took a road trip a few weeks ago. Drift Day in Memphis, leave that night. Drive to Virginia Beach, then Philadelphia. Hit a drift day in DC on the way home. Not a single problem. Change the oil and give it gas, that is all.
