I've owned two.
My first car was a 1994 Black Emerald NA 300zx. My dad and I flew to Vero Beach, FL and bought it sight unseen and drove it back to Houston. The 300z was my dream car. He gave me stipulations on what the car had to be, never thinking for a second I could fulfill them but I did. I knew it was slow so I didn't do much to the motor other than intake and pulley. I upgraded the stereo and added a few cosmetic mods to set it apart. My goal was clean and subtle. I will always remember this car.
My second one was a 2003 Silverstone 350z. This car had plenum, Borla exhaust, tein coilovers, strut bar and more. It performed well. I sold it when I changed career paths in college and needed a cash reserve.

Hey everyone, my name is Chris and this is my first post on here. I'm a certified Z nut. I had 3 of them but recently sold the older 2. I had a 1993 300ZX non turbo that was pretty much stock, a 1994 300ZX Twin Turbo that was decently modded and had about 450whp, and a 2003 Brickyard Red 350Z Enthusiast. I sold both Z32's but still have the Z33.
It was stock up until currently, its in the shop having some little things done. I'm fortunate enough to not need this as my daily driver so I can have it layed up for a few weeks. Nothing serious since I want to keep this car pretty stock, and I want it to be "clean", which means no crazy body kits or shiny things. I got this color car because it was very unique and nothing to flashy. Its just getting Swift Spec-R springs (only 1" drop) with Ichiba rear camber arms and toe bolts, silver 18" Nismo LMGT4 wheels with Toyo T1R tires, and a 2008 OEM body conversion which is basically just the front bumper, rear bumper, fender liners, a few trim pieces, reflectors, new underbody plastics, and a few other things. It seems like everything is taking forever, but Nissan is taking their sweet time with getting parts in, and most of the other stuff is being shipped from Cali. I can't wait for the car to be done, I think it will change it a lot.
Here's some pics of the Z's.
The 1993 NA
The 1994 TT
And the 2003 350Z.
with the new 08.5 Titan LE Crew Cab. Its a beast, and dare I say it....almost as fast as the Z, haha!
