the Z32 was available fomr 90-96 and the 96 model lacked VTCand had 5 lor 10 less hpsince you posted this int he Z33 section I gotta guess you are leaning this directon, the Z33 is newer, and does not require timing belt changes as ti's chain driven, you might even find one with ballance of factory warranty, both ave tone of aftermarket, the Z33 is easeri to work on than a TT, the Z33 has fewer moving parts for less maintenance and lesspotential points of failure

when i get rid of my TT I plan to get a Z33, and for the record I currently own an S30, Z31 and a Z32, the Z32 is my least favorite

Thanks for the feedback, I will check out the web site. The Z would be used only in good weather......about 3k miles per year, may do some minor mods only.

I think if you are a handy mechanic and want to do a lot of work or mod as a hobby, then go with 300z. But if you just want a sport car that you can cruise around on the weekend without much work, then go with 350Z. I'd go with 350Z, but you'll have to pay more for it then 300z.

both Zs are hella sexy, 300ZXs tend to need more work done to them but in the end you have an amazing car usually with t tops. 350Zs dont usually need as much work done when you buy them because they are a newer car. check the 300ZXs forums before you make your decision

Looking at a 2006 350z, one owner 4k miles, waiting to hear if auto or manual.....

[blackz32]

i have both ,just got the 350z. the 350z seems like less of a headache than my 300zx

[zgoug]

From the response on both 350/370 and 300zx sites, the 350z would be a better choice, due to the newness, improved technology etc, etc....but the 300zx is a looker! (as is the 350)

350 of course!!!

I have a 1990 NA, Its fun, but its a pain in the a** to take care of. I did all the NA mods excpet for headers and clutch. I need to add little things here and there at $100+ a pop at least for maintaining it. And Im getting tired of it. I got cash saved up and Im planning to get a 350z 2006+ stock and white or black and get a SC. That should last me a while. Longer than my z32. And in the future I got a terrible feeling gas prices are going to be $6 + gallon by 2011...

If you want a fast car 300zx TT

if you want a quick car get a 350z

and if you want a more reliable car get a 350z

300zx TT is a nightmare when it comes to fixing things and keeping up with a 20 year old car
