Well there's a lot of good about the Z32, I could go on all day but I'll just touch on some high points-very high horsepower potential-well engineered vehicle-superior handling-classic styling-decently affordable thus providing a good power/dollar ratio in the used rwd sports car market

Basically the car looks great, performs great, has a ton of potential, and is affordable. How can you really go wrong?

The only things that are downsides to them are....-expensive to own (parts aren't cheap and remember they were 35-45K new)-difficult to work on (atleast more so than your basic 4 cylinder import, people make it out to be harder than it really is though)

90's are the lightest with no airbag bolonga

JDM bodykits - Border Racing, Pentroof, JUN AUTO, DOLUCK, Bomex, Veilside, Final Konnexion(WidebodyZ is running their front). WingsWest also makes a great kit for the Z32

The z32 looks good lowered, not that it doesn't sit low enough stock.

The Z32 has a timeless design and has a lot technology for the production years

First car to ever have front multi-link suspension

Etc....I could name a bunch, I'm a huge fan of the Z32 chassis. Theres no downfall for me about them.

Go for it! I whole heartedly agree with nsrZ32. I took the plunge last May, a '91 NA 2+2, manual. (Why anyone would want this car with auto trans is beyond me!) I am still learnig quirks, but is coolest sports car I have owned and that is many over the past 40+ years. Car can be very civil, or "hot" as you might desire. OSCN
