No Reserve!!!! No Reserve!!!! No Reserve!!!! No Reserve!!!! In 1984 Nissan Motors produced 75,351 of its all new 300ZX for the United States market. Of these Z cars 5,148 limited-edition 300ZX Turbos were badged to honor Nissan's 50th Anniversary. An additional 300 vehicles were destined for the Canadian market. This Z came with no options except for a 4 speed automatic transmission. The cost of this Z ($26,000) was very pricy for the time.The AE drivetrain and standard features were the same as the standard 84 turbo but the package included many extras. This consisted of two-tone silver metallic over black paint (color code #365), ground effects, rocker-panel appliqués, fender flares and turbo-finned 16” wheels with Pirelli P7 tires. Stiffer springs by 10% along with a stiffer recalibration of the adjustable shocks were said to have improved high speed stability.Interior features included black leather upholstery with special gold-embossed AE emblems and full digital electronic instrument display. The AM/FM 80-watt, 8 speaker stereo with steering wheel control also featured a Bodysonic sound system. Just turn the knob and the seats vibrate to the beat of the stereo.A car cover, floor mats and a gold key with the 50th logo also were standard features.Exterior features included a T-Bar roof with mirror-glazed panels and bronze tinted windows. Triple gold pin striping along with gold turbo graphics and AE fender emblems top off this unique 300ZX Turbo package.Power was supplied by a Turbocharged 3.0-liter (SOHC) 60-degree v6. This generated 200 HP @ 5200 rpm and 227 ft. lbs of torque @ 3600 rpm. The gear box is a 5-speed overdrive manual (4-speed automatic optional) and the final drive ratio is 3.545 This power plant was able to produce 0-60 in the low 7 second range and 1/4 mile times and speeds at 15.4 sec. @ 88 mph. Top speed is limited to 137 mph. Speeds in the 140+ mph range could be reached with the limiter disconnected.Z Car & Classic Datsun Magazine picked the AE a sure bet for collector car status. I hope this info can be used as a quick reference for those of you interested in this limited edition package. I bought the car around a month ago with intentions of completely restoring it to mint condition. My priorities have changed. I was approved for a mortgage and I would love to sell this car to come up with some extra cash for moving expenses. It runs and drives. All the electronics work on her. It's got around 163,xxx miles on it. I will list all of the good points as well as the bad ones. It's a great car and will make a great restoration for someone that appreciates this car as much as I do. The pictures attached are of the car now. The rims and tires are not my choice (believe me) I bought the car with them on it. I would definitely suggest getting new ones. I have removed the Hawaiian print mats and steering wheel cover as well. You can have them if you want. Thanks for looking and happy bidding. The good parts:Newly recovered black leather seatsI have 2 sets of T-Tops that dont leak (1 pair is the original mirrored set and the 2nd is from a donor car. I have the t top covers too)All digital instruments work5 Speed Manual TrannyTurbo Super Rare 50th Anniversary EditionBody Sonic RadioDigital climate controlNew EGR valveRecent tune up including new wires, spark plugs, oil change, hoses, belts, etc. General maintenance.The car runs and drives and doesn't overheatTinted windows The Bad parts:The car blows white smoke when you accelerate. I thought it was the EGR valve so we replaced it. There was some old cracked hoses, so we replaced them thinking it was vacuum related and it wasn't. It turns out that the valve on cylinder #3 needs replacing. The head is NOT cracked, the head gasket is NOT blown! The motor is nice and strong The fiber boards for the t tops need to be replaced ($35.00)The headliner could use replacing as well as the rear speaker covers that are faded.The car is 28 years old and has minor dings on the hood. Nothing major. A little time and love and this Z could be worth well over $10,000. The radio alone is listed on Ebay for $1,999. I have a clear Alabama titleThere is no reserve on this car! PLease feel free to ask any specific questions you may have. I have nothing to hide and would like for any buyer to know as much as possible about this car before they get it.
