what do you think the final cost of this vehicale would be after i fix everything? im thinknig IF i spend a grand fixing it,it is still worth it....



opions,comments etc please

 

What year is the z? na or tt?

Z's are very nice car. But nowadays you cna't find one in good condition. Parts are expensive, Labor is super expensive. If you cna do the work, you are in good shape.

Its quite old, so remember you will need to replace misc. hoses and platic pieces.....and things add up quick......

GOod luck with your purchase.

Year matters...hard to work with, I have a nissan 300zx, love it. Bought it with damage...Part price not to bad but the labor is beyond expensive.

 

Owning a Z car be very expensive but so can owning any car. Overall, they are very reliable and as far as labor you just have to know who to take it to and who not to...or do it yourself.

The repairs you have posted are not too hard to do yourself.

 

Haha, nice try Rinku. Your S-13 and S-14 are no spring chickens themselves.

 

Hey who you calling chickens....

Kick ur butt anyday fool........heheh........j/k......

Z's engine bay is full of stuff. All kinds of hoses and plastic that goes bad due to heat and all. Comparetively, s13 and s14 have same problem but in my opinion they are no where near crowded as a z engine bay and thus can hold up better in the long run for those plastic pieces and whatnot........

it is 1990 na


im gonna bring it to my mechanic tomorw and see what he says(if there is more than just thse 3 things wrong,how much he will charge me to fix it,etc)

 

1990 had the most issues. I would find a 91 or newer if I were you.
