In before Datte!

what you have there is an S12 chassis car.

the VG30E in the car is shared with the 300zx from the same year.

down here, there's usually a few at any given time in the junkyards. Is the body straight on it?

LOL

I used to own the exact model you have, it was taken away from me about three months ago.

You can use practically everything from the non-turbo 300ZX from the 86-early 87 model years, this is assuming you have a car with a production date on or before 11/86.
Everything except the Y pipe and the intake manifold (a few other exceptions I won't get into right now).

I have a Z31 air sensor, computer and a SOHC 240sx TB you can use with the car for a few extra ponies to the wheels, if you like!
PM me if you need any help, I know alot about this car.

The stock one looks horrible. It's also so rare that you won't find it ever.

My money is on an auto. Like 90% of them were made that way.

I wouldn't say authority, more like the only guy who would mess with that old pile of rust.

They actually hold up pretty well down here, when you do find them, they're not all rusted out generally.
