Mondo HnS Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I thought I'd better introduce myself properly, even though I'm not a Supra owner. Always liked the Supra, but a little out of my price-range sadly. I am, however, the proud owner of another 90s Jap icon: a 1992 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo SWB I had a black 2+2 before I got this one last year, but I always wanted the 2 seater variant as I prefer the dimensions. In the space of the last year, she's had a considerable amount of work done. Luckily she came with a fully forged engine when I bought her. She's a factory manual too (quite rare over here), so that was another large plus-point! Anyway, here's what she looks like: You can probably see the "silver and red" theme that's going on here! Si.

Scooter Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I have a soft spot for these especially in the short wheel base, looks lovely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mondo HnS Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 I have a soft spot for these especially in the short wheel base, looks lovely I love the SWB variant - I just think they look more like a sports car than the LWB ones. That's why I had to have one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitbox Junkie Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Love these looked at them before the supra but was finding it very hard to find a SWB tagra with manual. Nice car man and great pictures were are the videos now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mondo HnS Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 Love these looked at them before the supra but was finding it very hard to find a SWB tagra with manual. Nice car man and great pictures were are the videos now I was very lucky to come across this one for sale - silver was never my first choice of colour but, now it's been resprayed (still in the original shade), I'm more of a fan. The black roof bars and front 'tache help to update the look as well And I have precisely no videos of this car whatsoever! I'll have to rectify that next year, I think...

Hobgoblin Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Lovely. Now paint it black! Or any colour other than silver! I think the noise of my old TT was probably the best car soundtrack I ever owned. Must be appreciating in value by now, I guess "shorties" are pretty rare now?

Mondo HnS Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 It's only just been resprayed in silver! The values are on the rise now at long last and yeah, the shorties are fairly thin on the ground these days. This car's as much an investment for me as anything!
