nismo kid Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 So I have decided to make my project thread. It al started when I was on my way to the store and saw my very first Z31. I figured way not stop by and check it out on my way back. My mother and I get out, taking a closer look and there wasn’t anything I didn’t like about the car. I asked the dealer ship owner how much for it and he told me 3500$. He also informed me he was the original owner. So I asked my mom if I could sell my very first car, which was a 71 nova. She told me if I really wanted to I could since I paid for it. It sold in 3 weeks for 3000$. I went to buy the Z and it was gone. That’s when the owner came out and told me he had sold it. 7 weeks later I went to New York and Massachusetts to visit my family for Christmas and new years. We arrive back to Texas and drive home to see that same red Z that I fell in love with. All I could think was who is the lucky bastard that got the car I wanted. I turned to my mom and asked if she knew. She says “I didn’t buy it so I don’t knowâ€. Disappointedly continuing to my room to discover a key hanging from my door knob. I cut the key off my door to take it to my mom and she says “go around and try it on thingsâ€. I try it in all the doors in the house, nothing. So I go outside try her car still nothing. Then try the Z. I place the key in and turn it. To my surprise it opens it. So I jump in. Then my mom reviels she bought it and placed it in storage. She offers me it for 1500$. I couldn’t refuse it. I was 15 when I bought my first Z. It was red N/A 87 with black interior. As time went on I bought parts here and there to try to make it fast. I searched online the I stumble along Jason’s’ page. From there I find z31performance, 88hybrid, z31 and hybridz. On some of these sites I ask about becoming fast with a N/A. All I got in response was laughs and sell me your car, etc. From there on I chose to not post anymore to keep from getting flamed/ piss anyone off. I Realize now that it was a dumb question. The forums have done nothing but HELP. If it wasn’t for the forums I would have learned anything of the Z31 or Z’s in general. I now own 3 Z31s. Red 86T with black interior auto. What started as a red 87N/Awith black interior, manual, is now black. Last but not least a navy blue 88N/A with blue interior, manual There is many cars that have influenced my build.
