Crappy primer "paint" job, for no other reason than fixing rust :(

I don't think everyone here doesn't like imports. Just because we want a game dedicated to muscle cars doesn't mean we hate and can't stand them (I know there are some, but not all). A McLaren F1 is an import, and I would love to have a McLaren F1, and I don't believe anyone here would not love to even get the chance to drive one.
I'm guessing that's a nissan. Don't really know the body, so I looked closely and looks like it says 300ZX, and googling says that's a nissan.

Yeah, its a 1986 Nissan 300ZX (chassis Z31). Hence my username, NA2T meaning Naturally Aspirated 2 Turbo swap...
Its the first of the Nissan "Z3x" chassis cars, after was the Z32, which was the 1990-96 300ZX, Z33 being the 350Z, and Z34 the new 370Z. The 70-78 Z (240Z,260Z, and 280Z) were S30, and 79-83 280ZX was S130...
I have respect for any man or woman that works on his own ride! Nice wheels. If I were to go for an import and wasn't so in love with my Firebird's, I'd have to say a Z would be one of my first choices.

That motor looks disgusting.... almost as bad as mine... almost.
Good luck with it. I imagine it'd be a fun little car to drive around when it's done.

I was driving it when it was NA (non turbo), and it was a super fun car even though it was slow (1/4 in high 15s.....). It handled great, and with what im doing to the suspension it'll be even better.
