'84 Zenki Nissan 300Zx

[Master__09]

I have a 1984 Nissan 300ZX Z31 non turbo 2+2.

I bought it for $400 because it has a blown head gasket, although the motors only done 50,000 kms.

 

Here's some pictures:

 

The day I got it:

 

 

 

 

After cleaning the interior, buying floor mats and new wiper blades:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some shots after washing it:

 

 

 

 

 

After ripping out the air filter and replacing it with a pod:

 

 

 

Muffler had a hole in it so I found a quick and easy fix:

 

 

I wouldn't usually go for something like this but it cost me $55 because it had the wrong price tag on it. I couldn't say no.

 

More pictures:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Got a 600W amp and 1300W sub off of a mate.

Started to rip up the stereo. Still deciding on which head unit to buy.

 

 

 

 

I painted the rear brake light seperators and started on the rear rego plate backing.

 

Mumifying the brake lights:

 

 

Painting the seperators:

 

 

I went over a bit so I decided to keep going and I started to paint the rego plate backing area, then ran out of paint after the first coat:

 

 

What it looks like now:

 

 

Photoshopped myself a clear bonnet:

 

 

Interior at night:

 

 

 

 

Got bored and cleaned all the plastics and rubbers in the engine bay:

 

 

 

I wired up my Pioneer head unit to the amp and I bought the second Sony Xplod. I know that they're meant to be terrible quality but they actually sound really quite awesome:

 

 

 

Replacing a radiator hose has never been more challenging.

 

Ok. So here's the old hose:

 

 

And this is what was inside it:

 

 

That was easy. Now here's the gap where the new hose needs to go:

 

 

3 hours and 2 bleeding hands later:

 

 

 

A mate turned up to help me flush the radiator. Notice his import 200ZR in the background. it was built for drifting by Trial in Japan:

 

 

Got some spare time and did some painting:

Nice buy there mate, there is one at the local wreckers up here so if you need something and can't get it local then let me know and I can check it out for you.

Haha thanks. I know a heap of QLD guys from www.auz31club.com that would be all over it in seconds if they knew about it. Imagine seagulls to a bag of chips.

It is actually quite clean from what I looked at aswell, didn't look too hard as it wasn't a 32 and I was having a quick look for parts for my ute.
