What 300 zx year is the best one to buy used?

Question

I have done a little research and found that there is a particular year 300 zx that has the largest engine or best turbos or something like that. I need to know a year range of 300's that would be optimum to buy. With the least amount of problems, most horse power, and just favored the most.

Answer 1

Well I wouldn't buy a 1996 if I were you (OBD-II is supposed to make tuning more complicated),

The 89- are ugly looking and not quite as powerful as the Z32 (90-96).

The 92 introduced iron brake calipers and made mirror heaters standard. 93 changed the oil line to dissipate more heat. 95 changed the TT's ECU to 16bit and changed the fuel injectors to a less failure prone set.

Not to mention NVTC was dropped in 96.

I'd have to say 1995 sounds like the perfect year.

Answer 2

1995 was the best compromise of features and reliability.

Answer 3

Easily the 90 TT 2+2, those are hella rare tho...

but, the Z32 TT 92' is comprable
