wigenOut-S30 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Well, My wife and I got rid of our Toyota Tacoma and Lexus IS300. Our goal is to start paying things off and get out of some debt. Soo.. now our family ride is a Scion XB and this thing is great! I really dig it. It has a Factory Alpine touch screen radio with USB inlet in the center console. You can plug in any USB memory device with music on it and control it at the head unit. Also gets great gas mileage, handles quite decent and is Peppy. Has the 2.4 ltr 158hp- 160tq inline 4. Now my daily driver is a 1987 300ZX NA. My In-laws have had this car for 10 years and it has been parked for about 3. They just gave it to me.. How great is that?!!! The body is in awesome shape but needs all the tune up goodies and brakes bled. The AC works too!! This will keep my Z away from the daily driver status. ok.. on with the pics. Extra 1 zillion points if you guys figure out whats "different" about the Z31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks280zt Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Looks like an 84-86 z31 with a 87-88 z31 front end conversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a 87 with a 85 Front end.I am not sure why someone swapped them. I looked all through the underside of the front. I cannot find any evidence of a crash or repairs.

You didn't post pics of the rear so I couldn't see the lights. Looks like a 86 N/A to me. http://z31.com/wheels.shtml 86 N/A: Side skirts look like a kouki... hmmm. Lookin good, Gabe! Analogue > Digital. Good find. Edited April 13, 2010 by flatblack280 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tails are the long bar type not the larger box type the 86 and older have. You are right about the wheels. I plan on either grabbing a set of 87-89 NA wheels or a set of the Enkie 16x7 meshies but I would have to buy new tires for thoes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDK why but Mustang wheels look great on these cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
