jdubsbird's 1988 Nissan 300ZXThis is my 1988 Nissan 300ZX project car. I got it for only $775.00 so yeh, VG30E 5 speed. But she needs some work which i am doing. Im doing everything myself on this car so it may take awhile so check back often for updates!! Thanks for viewing and be sure to look at my firebird!!!

To all z haters; Vegeta has something to tell you..

Nice car for what you paid for it!!!Hopefully everything will turn out exactly like you want it too.And the exhaust you bought is fine it's all preference on what you like...just like i have a 3" from turbo back to a HKS carbon muffler!!!

Nice project, that's clean! yeah stock muffler on my Del Sol gives it a sleeper look, but trust me it's quick :P i'm looking to get a APEX'i setup soon

toss it up on ebay for 20$. believe me it's much better to cut your losses now than to end up spending a grip of money on something you won't like.......trust me I've done it and am currently regretting it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwndk3a2VzY&feature=channel the cm exhaust is definitely the way to go. that's with the dual tip muffler, I don't think the 4in one would sound much different though.

I bought the headlight covers from thezstore.com. since those pictures I've changed a lot on my car. I tossed the headlight covers and I am getting ready to toss my exhaust for a mandrel bent exhaust system from certified muffler. word of advice, make sure you do A LOT of research before you commit to buying anything. I've spent so much money on stupid things. most of which are now in the trash haha. I don't want to sound like an ass, but that apexi n1 muffler is ridiculous. sell it and go with a certified muffler system you'll be much happier. this is coming from they guy that bought a ridiculous muffler too :).
