Lamborghini didn’t “copy” the 300zx headlights, Lamborghini bought the units from Nissan. The carbon strip on the Diablo covers the Nissan markings.

300zx is such an underrated and beautiful car

For a car that sold over a million units I don't see it very often in the streets

Alex: the car did "well" in motorsport and held itself "okay" against the competition. Me: dude the car won the 12 hours of Sebring, The imsa gts championship and the 24 hours of leMans. It was so fast it was banned from leMans.

After 15 years of fawning over this damn car i can finally walk outside every morning and stare at its beauty, and also cry every time i look at the engine bay 🤦🏽‍♂️

"Held itself okay against the competition" It won the 24 Hours of LeMans lol

The compliments and head turning that u get when driving one is crazy every one loves them. Love the z32

10/10 I'm 17, I worked my ass off and bought a 300zx as my first car. I love it and I will for the rest of my life

You guys have covered every project car I’ve been considering lol

I bought a 300zx as my first sports car, you can learn so much from them if you care to. 2 years ago I could barely do an oil change now I'm rebuilding an engine from a bare block on my own, this is the way. P.S. you don't need to swap to make good power, the stock bottom end is reliable to around 600whp but some have held up in the 750+ area

Alex: “...and to the guy asking for an e46 vid...keep it up... It’s me. I’m “guy” E46 vid pls 🤞🏾✌🏾

Ive owned 5 different Z32s over the years in different colors, trim levels, and performance capability. From stock N/A to stock, TT, to heavily modified TT, and every single one never failed in putting a huge smile on my face. They are beautiful, go like a bat out of hell, and drive with grip and poise like they are on rails. The Z32 is and will always be the pinnacle of Z cars. I plan to buy another one soon and this time i refuse to ever sell it.

My dad used to have one but traded it in for a maxima when he found out my mom was pregnant with me😭 18yrs later I was driving that damn maxima🤣. So close yet so farm from inheriting one of these bad boys

The reason this car gets so much flak is because in the early 2000s just like Honda Civics this car was treated with some of the worst body kits known to man

I remember this car being one of the earliest "concept" looking cars for the street in the 1990s. This car doesn't get enough credit for it's forward thinking design. My favorite "Z" car, hands down.

It has been and always will be my dream car. Been wanting it for over 12 years and finally got myself a 95' this time last year and I will never let her go. You aren't wrong about the engine bay though haha

I had a 1990 N/A and is still my favorite out of all the cars I’ve owned. This car was way ahead of its time!

YES. FINALLY. YES.

I own a 1990 twin turbo 300ZX and I absolutely love it. The engine work can be quite complicated because of the lack of space in the engine bay and Nissan’s engineering of certain part locations, but, driving this car gives me a smile on my face that no other car can. It’s a love-hate relationship and we gotta respect that lol.

I've had my 300zx for more than a year now, and I'm now about to finally get the stock NA motor tuned and built in my garage and hopefully swap the trans to manual. Body was perfect when I got it but a branch and one mishap in an accident put some dents that I wish weren't there. But the most trouble-some part about owning any of the 70's - 90's Zs were Electrical issues, which mine is absolutely plagued with. I hope to have mine posted on Fitment Industries within the ending of 2020. Thank you Fitment for finally making a video about these rare birds that are mistreated badly for being beaters.

Jimmy Oakes Z’s really sold me on how cool they can be and how versatile you can make them

I knew it was coming now the Z Boys are happy

I recently bought a 94 n/a and love it so much that I should be monitored! Absolutely beautiful car! It was a one owner car for 25 years and had complete maintenance records and not one mod! Friggin unicorn 😍!

Ever since I bought and started restoring my 300zx they have been gaining in recognition and god damn do they deserve it

Oh lord now the prices are gonna go up. Thanks alex lol

I've owned my 300ZX for close to 12 years now. It really is one of the most underrated platforms! The new technology is REALLY allowing these cars to wake up to modern day specs. I'm building mine on my channel to highlight these aspects!

Should do a "So you want to buy a z31 300zx"

THANK YOU ALEX‼️ “THANK YOU” ISN’T ENOUGH TO THANK Y’ALL FOR THIS🤙🏽

I fell in love with this car ever since I saw it in kill bill

1:58 "the nissan 300zx was a car that hit production in 1989." The 300zx actually went into production in 1984. The z31 300zx was from 84-88 and the z32 came out in 89. I have an 86 z31 300zx.

I still have my 1989 twin turbo Japanese import 300zx in gun metal grey with original body kit and interior and I'm never getting rid of it, I love that thing, I bought it for $1500 off my mate and it's my pride and joy

Where that one person who commented the 300zx on every video, this for you

10/10 the 300zx is my dream car

one of my fav Nissans of all time, I liked her over the supra and rx7 as well. To be honest I like her over the subsequent generations of Z's too, I thought they took a step back with the 350Z and the 370 looks like a catfish with wheels.

Don't forget that it shares the front suspension from the R32 and the same rear as a S chassis. Legit. As far as the engine bay goes, the intake manifold takes about 15 minuets to remove and then you can get to anything quite easily. Jus saying Alex... Great vid 👌

very underrated car. It didn't take off in the JDM craze like the Supra, Skyline, or FD. I believe it was because it didn't make it on the fast and furious series. It also got aftermarket support very late compared to other Japanese sports cars at the time due it's difficulty to work on. It weights about the same as the Mk4 Supra. Its bone stock VG30 motor is known to hold power very well too. The fastest stock motor 300zx ran a high 8. Sad to see it not getting the attention it deserves. Some of them are still cheap and desperately need to be tastefully modded. Get one before they become impossible to find. Also an LS and 2JZ fit so well in its engine bay.

You guys should consider going more in-depth and doing “so you want a (insert engine here)?”. Doing the full car works for those interested in the total package but for the project fans out there it would be more beneficial information. For example; engine specs, applications, popular mods, pros, cons, and popular/interesting swaps. Just a suggestion to keep the content rolling.

Own several 90's JDM supercars and the 300ZX TT is my all time favorite car between all of them. One of the best all around cars and with some clean-up on the engine bay plus some knowledge on them, they get pretty decent to work-on.

Z32 ='s 10/10 Fell in love decades ago and have never turned back. I've built and or serviced well over 400+ 300zx's to date and can say each and every one was a pain in the ass to service, however! Each and every one of them was a blessing to drive once they were done =] Z32's are amazing cars hands down...

Thank you for this video! It's so awesome to see the Z32 get the recognition it deserves. It is my dream car and I'm proud to say I have one myself!

Building my second one now. Widebody on air!! Definitely a 10 out 10. Until you have to do anything under the hood.

I have had my 1991 triple black ttop 5-speed MANUAL, 2 seat ONLY, since July 4th 2000. Clean, bone stock except Borla exhaust and Apex-i intake and garaged kept. Not going to find this setup in any sorta combo anymore.

I'm sooo happy you guys did this video. I own a twin turbo '93 z and it's a blast to drive and it still manages to turn heads when I drive by, and the best part is the car is still stock. I can only imagine what it's gonna be like once I start toying with it and having some fun.

Already own one best car I've ever had

This is a great car with a great Community behind it there's so many companies dedicated to keeping this car on the road and you will never be without parts. I bought mine from a junkyard and I brought it back to life it was an NA and now it's na-tt with over three hundred thousand miles on it they can be reliable if you take care of it

I have a '90 Z32 TT. It's a masterpiece of Japanese engineering, and represents one of the pinnacles of it (the supra and vr4 the other 2). It's built like a tank, the ergonomics are amazing, it's fast, and handles very well.

Me, cultured 1990 300zx owner with no money and bleeding from cuts because of the engine bay. Yes you want one. People don't know how to work on them and will definitely cheap out on repairs. My last one was totaled by a lawn truck hit and run. My current one the previous "mechanic" used silicone instead of just replacing the gaskets on the balance tube. They'll have a myriad of things to look after, BUT once it runs and is loved it'll be stout and never leave you stranded. It is a car I just can't get enough of. I love this thing and it's been a blast with the satisfaction of owning and fixing it. I stil park it and turn around thinking "Damn, I own that".

10 have always loved these cars. Have been saving up to get a quality one.

i give the Z32 a solid 8/10, one of my favorite cars. I am biased to the Z31 300zx only because I love the 80s boxy style and pop up lights more. Not to mention I have three of those little guys. Not very fast but i love them.

I swear that these intros are the reason i watch so you want. Now i want to buy a freegin 300zx. Thanks fitment industries..Too dope.

I had a z32 for my first car I loved it, felt real comfortable, handling was good and it just looked so good. Working on it kind sucked cause it was so tight in the engine bay.

Finally, the 300zx has it's own video 10/10

These have always been an anomaly to me, and I can't help being curious. This should be interesting.

The Z32 was way ahead of it's time. Few can deny the sheer beauty these things have, even in stock form. Throw a few tasteful mods at it and you're set

Almost thought the beginning was an ad, but then I remembered you guys aren't ad-money sellouts and actually make videos relevant to the topics discussed. Another like well earned.

And here I am watching Alex talk about the z32's while im sitting in my z32 waiting for my friend to show up so we can wrap it fully in wrapping paper for cars and coffee

9/10. I personally own one and the only reason I don't give it a 10/10 is because of the engine bay being so cramped. Other than that it's an amazing car.

The design of the 300ZX (Z32) is what caught my attention. Love mine ! 🙌

Guess who owns a production number 7 of a 1990 300zx 😫

I’m gonna be so happy when I finally see that “So you want a 2g eclipse” video

So... you want a DMC-12... Am I gonna need to go back to the future to see this?

I have an 86 and absolutely love it. I see 350s and 370s on the streets and I always think, “If it wasn’t for what I’m driving, that wouldn’t be here.”

I own a 93 N/A. Previous owner made me buy it. He said, "Get it out of my driveway". Got it home, put coils, plugs, injectors and A/C belt on it and it is the cheapest, best looking, fun car I have ever driven. Great entry level high performance car for any age enthusiast.

Look I’ma be 100 with you. I love my e46 wagon with all my heart but I need a mistress to thrash around and slide with. I am trying to get such a car but it’s a slow process, that being said the 300zx is a car I’d pick for a mistress role.

love the 300zx 10/10 car in my opinion. owned one for a year and a month ago i crashed it at 100ks around a corner.. car/body is totaled but myself and my passenger literally climbed out of the roof and walked away with just some bruises.. the motor and drive line are not affected by the crash and i have brought a straight body and am in the presses of building it up with the old motor. RIP ma ol Z

Younger me thought this car was ugly. Older me realizes the error in my ways and regrets ever choosing the Mazda RX-7 as my neighbor still rolls around in a stock Nissan 300ZX Z32. And then you go out onto the highway just to see a random Mitsubishi 3000GT running perfectly fine and just mentally break.

I love this car! So important - a JDM Icon that doesn't get the respect and recognition it deserves, and is so unappreciated, mostly due to people crying about the engine bay - such crybabies. The car forsed IMSA to change the rules because it was so dominant. It was forced to race in a different class, and still won! The car was sold in 1989, but the design was actually completed in 1986...yes, 1986! IMO, Nissan should've done one upgrade for the 1993 model year onward - they should've changed the injectors. Everyone talks about the MKIV Supra, and deservedly so (I love that car as well - another of my favorites), but in stock form, the only difference in producing HP and acceleration performance between the Z32 and the MKIV Supra was the injectors (MKIV came with 550 injectors and Z32 still used 370 injectors). If you tune both cars to 600-WHP, the mighty MKIV gets beaten...yes, I was surprised as well. But anyway, this car, the Z32, deserves so much more respect and recognition than it receives.

Love the Z32, I had a 1992 Twin Turbo. Definitely a sheep in wolves' clothing, bone stock you're lucky to run high 13s. The Toyota Supra Twin Turbo and '94-'99 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 were faster stock both in numbers and in feel. However, imo the Z ran circles around both and was about as fast as the Mazda FD3 RX-7 but didn't feel like you were going to die in the twisties. Once modded, the Z32 becomes a whole different car. It also mods better than the Mitsubishi and looks timeless.

I've been hoping for this vid since I got a 300zx, and there's tons to unpackage here that's not covered in the vid. If you're looking for a drift car, it's best to remove the HICAS system that comes standard on the TT and replace it with the NA zx rear suspension. The Turbos on the TT are also prone to going out, and are generally near the age where they have or are going to soon. On a well kept model, they can last a shile longer but it's a generally good practice to have them checked out and replaced if need be. If you intend to swap it with a 2JZ, Kalvin Malli is a good success story, and even had his car shown off at SEMA this year. If you would like to LS swap, The Smoking Tire has a video on that, and the things that are kinda quirky with an LS 300zx. The engine bay is also notoriously compact, especially in the TT models, which can be a bit of a pain to work on. Having had to replace the belt myself, it's definitely not easy to get to some of the smaller spaces, though it's easier to work on the NA. That being said, these cars are getting more and more rare, and in my opinion are the best looking of the Post-Datsun Z series. That Racing Channel also has a few videos on the 300zx like Devil-Z that are great to watch if you're more interested in drag racing.

10. Owning my first TT for a year and a half (got lucky to buy near-OEM from and original owner). It’s an absolute dream to drive. Smooth, easy power and an excellent ride for a sports car. Handles amazingly.Thanks for the vid - this car will only become more coveted with time.

As one that owns a 300 it’s safe to say, if u do buy one u will have a love hate relationship with it. Ther erlier version from 90-93 is the one u want but because it’s over 25 years old, u feel it. With the engine being mostly made up of rubber vacuum lines, it’s incredibly hard to work on one thing. You end up taking off a lot of stuff just to get to one thing. On top of having no space in the bay makes it even worse. And if u want to get your z fixed because u don’t have the time to do it, well good luck because it just became a yard or ornament. No shop will work on these, not even Nissan then selfs will. If a shop willing takes this car then that means u need to take it back because they didn’t know what they got into. Expect to do most of your own work on these. The vg30 it self is incredibly finicky, it will have issues over little thing. If your ground is lose you could be looking at a miss fire, if u have a slight vacuum leak, u could be looking at many things including a bad idle. If a sensor goes wrong ( their are many in this car to go wrong) then your car could miss fire or run extremely rough. These engines will run with lots of problems but to get them to run properly Is the challenge. Oh and you'll seem to always have a vacuum leak. Now after saying all this, I can still recommend this car. It’s amazing how much I have learn off this car and how much you can learn. It’s a fun car and such a beauty. It’s truly a great car but not for a first car, don’t make the mistake I did. The car is great just expensive to maintain. Over all it’s an amazing car that I recommend anyone to get as long as they are willing to do their own work and want a fun project car.

Hit the nail on the head with this one guys!! Glad jimmy Oakes and cbazzz made it in the clips. Surprisingly they’re not terrible to work on. Things just take some time. Small learning curve.

As a 300zx owner. As my first car and only car. I don't recommend it too many issues. But if you do it your self or have a daily on the side. Their so much fun completely worth it

I am planning to get one myself. But still being torn between 350z and 300zx. 10/10 I rate this car 👍

I have one. It's a 2+2 NA. I love this car. Most fun car I've ever owned. Responds so well to upgrades, and handling. I can whip this car anyway I want it. Also, the TT models. Exhaust Intake and a basic tune will get you 350-400WHP. Pretty quick for a mostly stock car

I’m with the guy that’s asking for the “So You Want an e46” 😭

I will say my 300ZX is probably one of my favorite cars hands down. The HICAS system is phenomenal when you’re cruising on highways as you can feel the difference in handling when the rear tires turn even though it’s only 1-3 degrees. If I’m just cruising I average 30-36 mpg, and in Wyoming that’s really damn good! If I decide to step on it and let the turbos do their thing that’s a completely different story 🤔

My dad brought a brand new TT home in 1990. I was 15 with a permit. He and my mom went out of town with my grandmother and her friends as my "adults" for a week. I had the keys. I wanna tell the rest of this on vinwiki stories.

a ‘93 TT is my dream car , my bro has one 🥵 hope everyone has a great week !

My boy in h.s had a red one with a sick af “stillen” bodykit ❤️

Just finishing up a 15 month complete refresh of my 91 TT. They are amazing and the motor isn't that hard to work on if you just pull it right away and don't mess around. Great video!!

Miss my 300z. It was a 1995. I had it for 8 months, and this was only about 8 months ago. I did alot of work to it, and put some new wheels on it. 2 days after the new wheels were on it, I hydroplaned, hit an embankment, and landed on top totalling the car. 100 grand of hospital Bills and a wrecked Z later, I was left with, well, not a Z. I miss here every day, maybe one day another one will come in my life. When I get out of this debt and can afford it, the day will come. I'm only 19 so you can imagine, its difficult. Rest in peace girl

Thank you for this. Actually listens to viewers! My 93 TT has been reliable mainly because I am OCD about it. Prices have gone up alot just last couple of yrs

I still love and will eventually get a 300zx. Like a little 90s Japanese supercar. Wonderful design

DO NOT forget about the origin of the 300ZX!! The Z31!! First Z to have both a V6 and the last STRAIGHT 6 RB. Was the OG platform and has almost as much potential as the Z32. Both great cars with great history. Also the Z31 was the only Z to have pop-up headlights! Very important ;)

I wanted one back in 1993, even test drove one that I was interested in, but refrained from getting it because it was still too expensive on the used market. I wound up getting a Porsche 944S, a fun car to drive. Now, I have a 370Z sport coupe 6M that is a blast to drive.

10/10 very good styling and love the interchangability and the r32 tech in them. Holding on to my tt to build her right

The 300zx "was" considered a heavy car.... but look at how much a majority of cars made today weigh.

I wasn't a fan of the front design until I saw one of them in the wild and damn they are striking and I'm sold on it now.

Have had 2 in the last 10 years, both were built up from a last owner giving up on it. ITS NOT a starter car. Both were a lot of work and both would eat you alive with the wrong move, BUT they also will treat you amazing with the right moves.

Damn these intros keep getting better

finally one for the z32

This will be a good one, dont see very many Z32s that often. I'm not a huge fan of the Z32 but it's nice to see it getting some recognition. The Z32 and GTO never really get noticed being over shadowed by the other cars.

I love my 300ZX TT. But that tight engine compartment, no joke. Plus, most of these cars were neglected and abused. You have to constantly check them and work on them. But still my favorite car to own.

You completely forgot the 1st gen 300ZX. The Z31, like bro cmon

I rate it a 10 I love mine and everything about it this is my second one I owned and this one i'm never selling

Just skipped the Z31 like it doesn't even exist, and that's why I love mine. They'll see, they'll ALL SEE

Can't explain how much I miss this car, such a pleasure to drive and so much fun. Would buy another in a heart beat if life showed some mercy.

I’ve been looking at these, then this video came out.... kinda spooky
