Jayce

I'll start at 6500 asking price roughly since I have to put up a number. I have an all original Z with everything still in it. It is also my Daily Driver and is tagged till 2015 with a clean title. Pink Slip in hand. Not much is missing minus some reflectors on the front bumper. It's a complete unmolested Z.

AC does work only needs the belt to be installed. I am doing my research to learn how to install the belt and charge the system. If there are any real offers on the table I'll have it fixed before delivery of vehicle.

I had a 76 years ago, it will be super hard to find R12, but you can get conversion kits from the zstore if i remember correctly for a decent price. 6k is a bit high, but hey man good luck.

06-06-2014, 05:27 PM
Due to Super lack of interest I have decided to keep my Z. Since I have also done my research and found out that my s30 doesn't even come close to the buckets on CL. They are all over priced rust buckets at that. Had a big change of heart on my s30 it's the cleanest stock one I have ever owned thus the reason I bought it. I have noticed almost no rust on her except two spots which are hardly even noticeable. I'm keeping my Z... This ad is back to a TW post.
Thank you for your views. If there was any interest kinda late now :fawkd:


The price stands at $6000.00 and will climb as I continue to TLC her.

4 sale at 4500 OBO I am up for a reasonable cash offer. I have found me a few rides I'm wanting. No thanks to CL and every single forum I have visited looking for a decent ride mind u I said decent not good or great just decent. The majority of what I have seen has been Epic Fail Drift car projects... if your broke accept that and move on don't go rapeing a car just to make it look like your going fast and furious.

I am currently in the process of doing a rebuild... still gathering essential parts for a proper rebuild. Once done I will do the gold dust original paint instead of what it has which is bronze or so. That will match the engine bay color to a T. Gonna do a full body and frame restoration. To top it off I will be porting and polishing the head as well to do an ITB setup obviously internals first.

Since I have fixed my fuel issue which wasn't at all a big deal only a loose injector hose clamp that had to be tightened was all lol. That is were my small leak was i'll say that was ridiculous.

I agree with u on the market being shitty. Note I have seen many shit boxes with over 200,000 plus miles being sold with a rebuild how is that more appealing to buy. My Z has the correct amount of miles for being 38 almost 39 years old it's not over miles. She also has the original matching numbers Trans and Engine. She runs very strong and everything works electrically speaking I think I need to tough it out longer and I will for the right Sale or Buy. Bring on the waiting because I definitely have the patience. Note my Z will be Smog Exempt next year once that happens I will be keeping my Z if it is I still own it.

Sorry for the bad news, but your Z will NOT be smog exempt next year. There is not a rolling 25 yr old smog exmpt law in the state of California. If there were, my 89 S13 would already fall under that rule and we all wouldn't need to worry about smog so much.

*Below is an exerpt straight from the CA DMV website*

Does my vehicle qualify for a smog exemption?

Smog inspections are required unless your vehicle is:

Hybrid
Gasoline powered 1975 year model or older
Diesel powered 1997 year model and older or with a Gross Vehicle Weight rating (GVWR) of more than 14,000 lbs
Electric
Natural gas powered with a GVWR rating of more than 14,000 lbs.
Motorcycle
Trailer

And fyi, a rebuilt motor is more appealing tham a stock 200k motor. No one is going to keep the engine stock with that many miles bc the first thing anyone does with a car that high in miles in rebuild it. So i dont understand your selling point of it not being rebuilt is a good thing. That just means the next person who buys it will have to pay to grt it done.

" If it ain't broke don't fix it " a wise man once said... I don't race or haul ass I drive and respect my ride there for I know my motor will last me for a long time coming. I'm getting older so I don't have the time or desire to be a so called street racer. There is no need to rebuild I simply ride low and slow like a boss and 60mph on the slow lane.
