1986 Nissan 300ZX GLL review from North America
"Worlds best sports car, by Nissan. Awesome!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear shocks went bad from age (22yrs old)
General comments?
Beautiful car, great styling!
Fairly quick, 5 speed is VERY strong, as is the R200 differential.
The VG30E is a VERY VERY reliable and strong engine -- great for modifications
Fairly good aftermarket support, includes suspension and engine parts.
Interior is designed well, leather seats are EXTREMELY comfortable!
Handles VERY VERY well for the stock suspension, and with aftermarket springs, shocks, sway-bars, etc... it handles like its on rails... like a dream come true!
Everyone looks!
With a performance exhaust, it sounds mean!
Capable of 400WHP on Stock internals!
Boost = Fun.
Z31 for life!
As the '80s slogan says..."Awesome!"
