1990 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo – Owned by : Jerry Taylor (NSRZ32)

Before you lies the result of my hopes, dreams, money, and hard work. This is my 1990 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo. I had wanted a 300ZX since I saw one in 1990 in Florida and took a picture of it. In my opinion, it was the perfect car…amazing performance, smooth flowing body lines, technologically advanced, and much more. After 10 years of saving, learning, and being in a situation to buy one, my dream came true.

My 300ZX was purchased in December of 2000. It was stock and full of problems.

Since then I have modified, rebuilt, reconditioned, and customized the entire car. To this date my car has roughly 650 horsepower and is capable of nearly 200 mph. As with any project, my car will never be finished. There is so much more for me to accomplish with my car; modifications to be made, awards to be won, time, hard work, and money.

Unlike many cars today, my car has the “Go” to back up the “Show”…stay tuned for more!
