The New “What did you do with your Z today” (with off topic replies) XXXIV

Spooler · 12-24-2019, 11:20 PM

Just watched a couple of video's on YouTube of folks with 300zxtt's and trying to bring them back to life. I just reminded myself why I didn't go that route. All kinds of stuff needs to be redone due to lack of use. Dry rotted everything. I guess I should enjoy the time I had with mine and just be done with it.

Old dry rotted rubber hoses that are hidden is no fun to replace.

LOL, that thing is a piece of junk. You have to start out with a good example first. My first one had issues that I had to fix. Nothing like that though.

That is the money pit I'm staying away from. The purchase price isn't crazy yet but the maintenance is a never ending nightmare

I worked on a fair amount when I worked as a Technician at a Nissan dealership. Doing the work is no big deal. Finding the parts is a big deal. They don't always break, This isn't a European car.
