Im also 18 i got my z this august and its been tough building this car. I still dont have it on the road yet. I just got my motor and took me awile to find it. I have noticed that the mojority of Z owners have high paying jobs and are not exactly teenagers anymore. Good to see that there are young people trying to tame these cars. What i wonder is who is the youngest Z owner

i'm 19 and a student at penn state with a full time job, had my z for 3 years this august when i turn twenty and worked my way through a motor swap, suspension and am hoping to have the car finished in another 3 years. everything with a z takes time, patience, and a ton of work. just keep at it n you will love your z. my only advice is to budget your money and set your final goal for her early. as soon as you know what the final outcome you want is, every step makes you love the car so much more.glad to hear you've picked up a 300zx, congrats and good luck

ps: these guys are smart, ask questions when you need to

Im not rich neither are my parents. We used to own a descent auto dealership back in the day and then sold it to a friend. But the guy we sold it too is a close family friend so We were still able to use the dealer license to get into auto auctions. Which is where i got my first TT for $2800 and started to make my way up by selling my first Z for $8500 cuz my license got suspended.

Then got my 2nd TT again from the auction for 5k. I wrecked it and got paid 11k by insurance.

Which brings me to my current Z. I bought this one for 12k after i couldnt find one in immaculate cond at the auction.

i wanted to get a Z, but my buddy having one. i quicky learned that it is far from a cheap car to mod. its extremely expensive if you ask me. so instead, i have an S14 with an RB25. hahaha. not exactly a cheap way to go either. lol.

I'm 15 now, but I bought my 1st Z 2 years ago. It was a 1986 Z31 2by2 and I had alot planned for it, untill I learned that to do the upgrades I wanted, I needed to do too many conversions, so I went with a Z32 with because of the aftermarket support.

Well, I started researching and learning about Z's when I was 15. You just have to read, read, and read some more. Plus, I have done everything (besides a clutch replacement because I didn't have access to a lift) to my Z, from changing the spark plugs to pulling the plenum to change an injector myself.

I just turned 25. I've owned chevy, ford, honda, nissan, mazda, toyota, kawasaki, and suzuki. I bought my z last summer. It is the nicest and fastest car I've owned yet. I have a 94 katana 600, a 94 accord as a daily driver and an 86 mustang gt that I'm building a 347 stroker for. I love cars. And I've always loved the z. Glad I found her.
