Description:

As the story goes its time to let go of my 3 years in the making pride and joy.This car was a childhood dream car and as i started to notice shes a-lot more responsibility then i ever thought i could imagine.This is a great example of a Modern Vintage!
This is a
Fully
custom street machine that can tackle the track.I daily drove this Z...and still drive it to NY every weekend.She never gave me a problem.
The car was resprayed and repaired of any rust in the common areas. floors are absolute solid. bring ur magnets!
To be completely honest the paint does have its imperfections due to the fact that the car saw daily use..She still shines beautifully and is a very presentable car. She even started up in single digit weather!No choke!
The complements, thumbs up, stares are a daily deal in this car. If your trying to be discreet then don't even try to purchase it.I learned the hard way.
I have spent countless hours, miles, effort and lastly money to build this car to the level it is at now.
Every suspension, engine, braking, and drive train component has been changed on this Z.
I have gone threw the entire car up and down and it is free and clear of rust holes or imperfections.The entire electrical system has been upgraded. Every possible electrical relay upgrade from the parking lights to the headlights has been upgraded or added.
Even a modern fuse box. Has new tail-lights, new head-lights, new markers,
everything
.
New windshield & new seals (front and back). The sides were left untouched but don't leak. Carpeting is also new. New Corbeau seats + hardware.OMP Seat belts mounted on stock locations.
OMP steering wheel. NRG hub.
I had PDK fabrications make a custom dash board with all new gauges from intellitronix. Speed hut GPS Speedometer. I also changed out the rear & front lower control arms to modern techno toy tuning pieces. Tension Rods are T3.
The rear ST sway bar upgrade. CV conversion with porsche axles.The car was professionally aligned when everything was performed.
No pulls, nocreaks, crunches or thumps. shes solid.
She has a top end performance rear brace and T3 custom front tri brace.
I have driven this Z up to 131 mph with proof on the recorded gps speedo. She is as stable as they come.
The engine was built last year with a complete over haul. F54 block with a P79 head that was also completely rebuilt by Z car source Arizona.
Engine block was assembled and provided by Datsun Spirit Inc. Harada Manifold from japan and Triple Solex Mikuni Carburetors.The carbs were jetted and tuned for the current set up. MSA Headers un-coated. Cometic Performance Head Gasket. Brand new Centerforce II Clutch and pressure plate was also installed.Crane Cam Racing CD racing ignition with CD ignition Coil.Crane Cams Xr300 main ignition.Mallory Unilite Optical Distributor Upgrade.Ngk Blues wire and Ngk plugsMallory Electric fuel pump plumbed to a mallory fuel pressure regulator.
still has the original L24 valve cover. The L28 will be your Z's little secret.
She is very powerfull.
Tires have 90% tread left.ADVAN AD08R's all around.Extreme Summer tires.Wrapped around Rota Grid V 15x8 wheels
Even converted the rears to S13 240SX rear disk.Toyota S12 4 piston front brakes with braided lines all around. Tank was previously dropped cleaned and serviced.This engine is a absolute dream to hear.I honestly love the car but i feel that it's alot more catered to a person with a garage.I store the car in a warehouse during the week but i dont get to enjoy it the way i want to anymore. This is a great driver and not a project car and is turn key ready to roll.I drove the car to philly 2 times VA 3 and countless times to NYC.She is as reliable as a steam engine.I built it with the intention to be able to drive any where in the US and get there safely.Bluetooth Alpine Unit also installed.
As far as HVAC its has a Vintage Air Heating system. All the old stuff was torn out.
This is a Rare find and a true series 1 car. ODO says 5383.00miles since engine was rebuilt.She will change as the car still gets driven.
All the headaches and problematic issues have been pretty much handled.All you need to do is drive it and maintain it as i did threw out the years.I hope this goes to another Z attic as i move onto a more modern chassis.
To note for the collector everything i modified is reversible.I believe all the modifications i made were necessary for it to be a great vintage daily.
My receipts for the parts are also available.
Alot of extra parts were not listed but as you could imagine its hard to remember everything.
1 Con: E-brake cable is no good but will provide a brand new one!
several extra parts like seals and misc included.
Shes going as-is. Its a 40+ year old car.
