Description

First off, no I don't want to trade for your motorcycle or someother car, I have a motorcycle and I live in Italy so please don't ask/offer.
Never ever ever ever wanted to sell but I now currently live in Italy(Military). The vehicle is at my fathers house stored until sold for I've decided to let it go finally. Owned since 2010. Engine rebuild @ 153,570 miles 05 March 2015. Engine currently has about 800 miles on it (still breaking in). Since you would want to know, Why was engine rebuilt? Because the OEM turbo's did not work when I purchased the vehicle in 2010, All engine rebuilding was by Cruzing Auto in Fayetteville, NC by the owner Eric. I was young, dumb, and put a set of stock OEM USED turbos on the car after full engine rebuild. One turbo blew after 1500 miles (break-in period) and sent metal particles throughout the entire engine (oil from engine also circulates through turbos on this vehicle) ruining the entire build. After this, the car sat for a 2 years back in MD while I deployed to Afghanistan in 2012-13 and during that time I finally bought brand new T-28 disco potato hybrid turbos off Ebay in 2013. Vehicle was completely rebuilt again by Cruzing Auto in Fayetteville, NC Engine and turbos have same mileage. Cruzing Auto rebuilt the engine the 2nd time for half price (not only because we are good friends but probably because he felt so bad for me) and the car runs amazing now. So basically I had this engine redone and came down on orders to Italy, Cylinders were machined/bored to 88mm with new Wiseco forged pistons, OEM Nissan cam and crank bearings and full Nissan gasket rebuild kit from Z1 Motorsports. Most vacuum, fuel, and PVC hoses replaced. Most common z32 Deletes applied. All new engine sensors. The car runs phenomenal and new turbos boost perfect with profec II electronic boost controller ($500). Car is maroon gloss color painted over original red finish. This car has an incredibly complete well kept interior, all black leather, power seats/windows/locks. T-Tops don't leak & we'll kept. No engine leaks or surprises. Oil is currently NOT synthetic for break in period and is still on 1st oil change. Boost is set low until fuel system is upgraded. All brake rotors and pads replaced when engine was rebuilt and calibers re-greased/checked. Has original emergency kit/spare. This car is Extremely fun to drive. Sadly it is an automatic but a good/strong one. No transmission issues. Transmission fluid just changed. HICAS system still actually works though I'd recommend deleting it because of its age.
Everything changed that goes along with an engine rebuild except lifters (They were bled but still tap a little) nothing annoying or damaging though (common Z32 noise). Stock cams, rods, no head work.

The bad: 22 years of cosmetic wear. last owner had a "quick" paint job sprayed meaning he didn't have the engine bay, door jams, ect painted, although paint job doesn't look bad. Also someone else before me completely failed at trying to hook up after market speakers (Head unit works, speakers wired incorrectly) currently missing windshield spay jet from hood, windshield has crack in upper passenger side, and the car needs a new rear spoiler (oem foam spoiler damaged from sun/weather/age) And most current issue is the front passenger Tie-rod bushing seems to have blown out. When car is driven, it has "slight loose feeling" in the steering, if you buy this car, plan on fixing this issue 1st.
Overall this car has serious potential and runs great, turbos throw you back in the seat and the interior is incredibly well kept and complete. Don't be a fool though, this is a 22 year old car, but car has no cheap parts installed. This car has a brand new engine and runs exactly like it. Vehicle was in storage late 2012 to early 2015 besides time at Cruzing Auto being rebuilt twice.I have a lot of recipes from over the years, thousands of dollars worth of parts and maintenence. I moved to Italy 2 weeks after I got car back from the engine rebuild at Cruzing Auto, which is why I didn't have the time to break the engine in or fix the above issues. In ending, this car has a lot of money put into it and "my loss your gain" doesn't even begin to cover what Im losing when selling my z32. I obviously won't be there to sell this car in person, so if you have any questions please email me @ [email protected] for my father does not know much about the history of the vehicle.
