They See Me Rollin' - 300zx Edition
This 1991 Nissan 300ZX Is Faster Than A Bugatti Chiron And Expected To Sell For Less Than $100,000
[T]here’s this lovely 1991 Nissan 300ZX up for auction alongside the Tokyo Auto Salon in January, with a five-speed manual transmission and, oh, just a few modifications. Japanese tuning shop JUN Auto got the car and took its 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 to 3.1 liters, modified the body, added turbos like you found on Porsche Group C cars to each cylinder bank and ultimately upped the car to about 1,000 horsepower.
The
300ZX went to the Bonneville Speed Trials and hit over 261.9 mph,
which, if we’re keeping count, is above what your precious Bugatti is
capped at. The 300ZX was modified to be road legal once back in Japan,
but the BH Auction listing
says the engine is virtually the same as it was during the trials. The
company expects it to go for between $71,000 and about $98,000, but it
could always sell for more.
