Just saying hello!
I live in South East New England and own a 1994 300zx convertible. It was gifted to me before my father passed away almost 4 years ago.
I probably should have joined this forum when I got the car, but better late than never!
Glad to be here.

It's about time you joined! J/K We all know life get's in the way sometimes. Welcome to NICO Club! I've never been to the New England area, but I understand you get 'real' winters over there. Do you drive your car in the snow and ice?

NEVER! It stays garaged at all times, even in the warm months. It's the only way to prevent rust and rot. Our winters are too harsh.
Thanks for the welcome!

Okay, I finally figured it all out.
It only took 2 hours on an iPad. :rolleyes: :cry:
Actually it was quite painful and Photobucket is super buggy.

But ain't she pretty?

Looks like your Old Man took exceptionally good care of her! Like he just bought it yesterday.

Thanks Guys! I think she's pretty too. And my father did take great care of the vehicle. Now it's my turn, and I guess I've been doing okay so far these past few years. I took her out on Sunday when we finally had a break from the rain. Went for a long ride to stretch her legs a bit.
Anyone in my area know of a Nissan cruise or car meet? I have a great list for car shows in general, but I wondered if there was a group of Nissan enthusiasts who met occasionally?

This non stop rain has been brutal, hasn't it?

as far as local meets, depends on what "local" is to you. there is the ct z car club that has events all over ct throughout the nicer part of the year.

Hello to all,


I have a Nissan Pathfinder 3.5V6 from 2004.
I'm living in Africa, Liberia and I have to do everything by myself...
That's the reason why I joined the forum, it looks very helpful for the technical question !!!

Thanks in advance for your precious help !!!

Philippe
