This 1991 Nissan 300ZX is powered by an overbored LS1 V8 paired with a five-speed manual transmission, and additional modifications include CTS-V six-piston front brake calipers, Powertrix coilovers, Stillen sway bars, adjustable camber arms, a Magnaflow exhaust system, and a JVC CD stereo. Finished in Platinum Mist Metallic, the car was acquired by the seller on BaT in May 2021 and is equipped with air conditioning, removable T-top roof panels, 18″ wheels, and a metal shift knob. This LS1-powered Z32 is now offered with a dynamometer sheet, a clean Carfax report, and Rhode Island registration.

The car is finished in Platinum Mist Metallic and features removable glass T-top roof panels, fog lights, painted mirror caps, a power-telescoping antenna, a rear window wiper, and quad exhaust outlets.

Gray-finished 18″ 350Z 35th Anniversary wheels are mounted with 235/40 front and 265/35 rear Falken Azenis RT615K tires. Stopping power is provided by Cadillac CTS-V-sourced six-piston front calipers, 370Z-sourced rear calipers, and drilled and slotted rotors all around. The suspension has been modified with Powertrix coilovers, Stillen sway bars, adjustable camber arms, Megan Racing adjustable rear arms and toe links, and Energy Suspension components including subframe bushings and front arm bushings.

The two-place cabin features seats upholstered in gray cloth that extends to the lower dashboard, center console, and door panels. A JVC stereo and metal shift knob are fitted. The air conditioning system is said to have been recharged under current ownership. The cruise control does not work.

The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 7k-rpm redline as well as gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 94k miles, approximately 1,500 of which were added under current ownership.

The overbored LS1 V8 was installed prior to the seller’s acquisition using an LOJ Conversions master swap kit, and it features balanced, forged pistons, Manley rods, ported heads with 2″ valves, a FAST LSXR 102mm intake, a Nick Williams throttle body, BTR trunnion rockers, ARP hardware, and a COMP Cams camshaft, lifters, pushrods, and springs. The water pump, thermostat, and crank pulley were reportedly replaced, and other additions include Kooks headers, an Aeromotive fuel pump, an LS2 mass airflow sensor, an aluminum driveshaft, Denso oxygen sensors, and an aluminum radiator. The ECU has been professionally tuned, and the dynamometer readout in the gallery below shows a maximum output of 389 horsepower and 381 lb-ft of torque. Service under current ownership is said to include heat-wrapping the headers and performing an oil change.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a replacement 1998 Z32-spec five-speed manual transmission. A Clutch Masters FX100 clutch kit has been installed along with a Z1 Motorsports stainless clutch line, and the car features a Magnaflow exhaust system and 2.5″ mid-pipes with catalytic converters. A Z1 Motorsports aluminum undershroud has been installed.

The Carfax report shows no accidents or other damage and lists history in Indiana and Rhode Island.

The car does not have a title, as it is registered in a state that does not issue titles for a vehicle of its age. It is being sold on its Rhode Island registration, which displays “antique” under the plate type section.
