#214 of 317 1988 300Z Ignition Won't Turn Over by aikido2 Nov 25, 2007 (10:07 am)
Having some issues with the car starting and/or staying cranked. Engine starts and run fine for about 30-45 minutes..when it's cold. Once the car gets a little warm, it starts making sputtering sounds as if it's going to cut off. Sometimes it does cut off, and sometimes it doesn't. One thing for sure is once you cut the car off, it will not crank back up for about an hour or two. When you turn the ignition it sounds like it wants to crank up, but it won't. It actually sounds like it's being flooded. I have spent $900 bucks taking it to a shop; yet they still cannot fix the problem. Anyone has any ideas what it maybe?.
#215 of 317 Thinking about selling 1990 twin turbo by aesculus Nov 27, 2007 (7:08 pm)
Replying to: bucrucox08 (Aug 20, 2007 3:22 pm) I am the original owner of a 1990 300ZX twin turbo with only 35,000 miles. As you might guess from the mileage, I've pampered this car and it is in incredible condition. But because I drive it so infrequently, I'm beginning to question whether the insurance, etc. is worth it. So I'm wondering, if I get up the nerve to sell it, how do I determine an appropriate price, and what is the best way to sell it? I wish I had taken down the information from the dozens of guys who have walked up to me over the years and said, "I you ever want to sell your car...."

Replying to: aesculus (Nov 27, 2007 7:08 pm) Ebay quickly comes to mind. I would watch the 300zx listings for a while to get an idea of what your car might bring. Remember, if it is priced right it will sell regardless of condition -- if not, nobody will bid on it. I enjoy looking through the auctions from time to time and have seen a few low mileage Z's pass thru there that might be comparable to yours.   There are several 300zx forums on the web that might also help you get a feel of your cars value. Google "300zx forums" or "300zx clubs" and things like that to find them. People participating on boards like those are true fans of the car and would likely be the most knowledgeable about what a given car may be worth.   With an older specialty car in pristine condition like yours, pricing guides like KBB, NADA, etc. are worthless when trying to determine value. For that matter, they are really a joke with modern cars also.   Good luck with your decision. I wish I were able to seriously consider buying it --- it sounds like a real gem.

I'm puzzled. Why do you say "...pricing guides like KBB, NADA...are really a joke with modern cars also"? Replies to this message: traindriver (Nov 30, 2007 2:40 pm)

Replying to: hpmctorque (Nov 29, 2007 10:11 am) The guides are out of date and unreliable the day they are printed. Guides do not buy cars. The only reliable indicator of value is what a particular vehicle is bringing at the auctions. Dealers have access to auction data; regular consumers do not. A dealer will not pay you more for your car when they could go to the auction and get the same vehicle for less.   There are a few good dealers participating in the Real World Trade in Values thread here on Edmunds. They base their appraisals on auction data and are considered to be on spot with their assessments. I am not a dealer myself. If you need more clarification, you may want to direct a question to them in the appropriate forum.
#220 of 317 Fenders by jack95 Nov 30, 2007 (6:55 pm)
My father in law has an 84 300ZX. It was his daughters and she passed away recently. He wants to fix it up but it needs 2 new front fenders. Runs great. Does any one know where you can get after market fenders for this vintage. I have spent hours looking with no success. Jack Replies to this message: darkmann (Dec 08, 2007 6:15 am)
#222 of 317 My 300ZX by cb300zx Dec 06, 2007 (12:45 pm)
I just bought a 91' 300ZX Fairlady Z non turbo. It vibrates at abotu 45mph to 60mph even with the clutch in and or out of gear. So most likely its a u-joint, but you cant buy just a u-joint, you need to buy an entire drive shaft. I haved looked every where online but cant seem to find a drive shaft for this car. Does anyone know where I can order one? The only ones they have online are for the turbo models. Can someone plaese help me?

Replying to: aesculus (Nov 27, 2007 7:08 pm) I'm in the market for a Z32TT. I have a 89 Z31T with near 250K on the ODO. Still runs great but I want to "upgrade." I have been looking and with your mileage, I think you'll be in the $11-$12K range, depending on location. E-mail me at darkfellowwyahoo.com. Color, maintenance history, etc...etc. Don't use the e-mail with Edmunds because I almost never open that anymore.
