Nissan 300zx

[Alpine TSi]

All wheel steering isn't all that it is cracked up to be. At least on my VR-4 it isn't....

[Shane@DBPerformance]

All wheel steering always seems to be something people want to get rid of on the VR4s and 300ZXs.

[Alpine TSi]

People get rid of AWS in VR-4's because the rear lines are no longer made and when they leak they just scrap the whole thing.

Having a good amount of experience with 300zxtt's, I would have to say, great car if you are rich enough to never work on it, EVER! They suck to work on. They have decent potential. The all wheel steering is crappy. I have some very hard track time(Brainerd) with the car and the aws sucks. Most autox or road racers get rid of the aws. A couple of years ago getting parts for this car was like pulling teeth, but now that they are cheaper, there is more available.

it did look pretty tight in there when I looked :/
but I waqs just browsing around thinking about buying another car (prolly to replace the talon)
again I don't know much about them but I was pretty sure it was RWD not AWD (motor pointed to the rear of the car I assume d :P
anyways I bet I could talk him as low as 8k maybe but he says he has had alot of people looking so
I'll probably just let it pass by :p

oooo, that is a find my friend.

those cars have twin t25's and have mega top end stock.

a guy in so cal has one that I chat with and he loves it. Handling is a strong point.

they are very modable. intake, exhaust, jwt ecu and BAMM
350whp and you can knock on 11's with some slicks.
ultra reliable, the engine, It can run for 200k miles and not even drop compression if treated correctly. Internals have shown 500whp without any issues.

their downfall.
From a stop they suck MAJOR ass. they have an anti squat suspension. For the road track it owns, but when the backend doesn't sit down, you get wheel spin and hop. In the rain they eat major ass aswell unless you are running some good all seasons(but why would you on a 32z?)

fixing them.
Anything worth while means you drop the motor. new water pump, belts, turbos, basically anything medium to major means a drop of the motor.


the parts are phucking nasty for prices. Expect to pay 2x at least than you would for a dsm part. And some parts you'll pay 3-5x. two upgraded turbo's. No less than 1800 :-o

now saying that, i want one of those

They are twin T22's as far as I know. But I just checked out a site that said they are T22/T25's?. In any case they are smaller than the 2G T25's.

[Matt D.]

Everywhere I've read is that they are T25 turbos.

well I test drove it :/
I wan't super impressed (i mean I know it is a fully stock car) but It didn't seem to pull hard :( I guess I was expecting a bit more out of it.
btw whats the stock HP to one of these? 200+? 300+? and they are fairly light too right?

300

they run 14 flat stock, and trap around 102. They have some mean top end with a few mods. You really need to get the bolt on's an a jwt ecu to fully get their abilities.

but are heavy as PHUCK
for a two seater, and no space under the hood or behind the seats. They are 3500+.

they are highway machines just like supra's. Just not as easy to workon.
