Default Hello....Finally.

Well after many years of looking I finally picked up a Z33. Ive been a member here for a while, although I lost my original SN and made this one which reflects my name on 300zxclub.com. Anyway, Ill go into a little history on my Z ownership to start things off. My first car was a 1978 280z and I adored it (Still own it, its in storage and rarely comes out anymore) Then a couple of years later decided I wanted to find a good TT Z32 but to no avail as the market around Muskogee Oklahoma is not very good so I settled for a 1991 NA 300ZX.

As you can imagine, the desire to upgrade to a TT started to come about and a few years later and after a lot of work and saving I picked up a 1991 TT Z32. It was cherry red pearl and did quite a bit of work to it before selling it when financial problems came about.

Now, to describe why it took years to get my Z33.

Well I began my search for a good Z33 in late 2005 and was anticipating picking up one back then but life has a way of biting you in the *** on occasion. So pretty much the week I was going to go look at/pick up an 04 SS Touring 6MT I lose my job and as you can imagine it put my plans on hold. So after a long wait and getting back on my feet I get back in the situation where I can afford one around January of 2007. Well lady luck had other intentions as on January 22nd 2007 I was in an accident with a malfunctioning conveyor system at work that crushed my left middle finger at the base and did extensive nerve and tissue damage. The finger was reattached but sticks straight out so it always looks like im flipping someone off.

So after a year and a half of workers comp litigation I finally recieved my settlement. Well by the time that had rolled around my wife and I were expecting our first child. So that brings us to this week. We financially are setting great, we just picked up a 2007 Altima for my wife and I finally got my350z (no pun intended).

So here it is, it's a 2003 Track Ed. 6MT (Obviously) and was in great shape. It was a one owner and greatly cared for. I got a hell of a deal on it and ironically enough found it in my home town of Muskogee (we live in Norman).

My NA Z32 that ive had for almost 8 years now on its way to its new owners and to make room for the new addition:




And my new Track Ed. Pictured here with one of my friend's TT Z32. Ill have better pics later this week. It was still pretty chilly yesterday and got a late start so this will have to suffice:









The only plans I have for the car are to replace the tails with 06+ Tails, aerosync fascia perhaps some 06+ Bi-Xenon's and maybe a fast intentions exhaust but still not certain. I like it how it is and may only do the tails. Anyway, hope you all like it.

Congrats. They're no Z32TT, but we still love our Z33s.

What a story you have there. And a journey to Z number 3. I hope you have the Z32 & Z33 as long as you have the 280.

This is actually my 4th Z. My first was the 280Z, then I got the Black NA, then I purchased a CRP TT Z32, then my Track Z33! The only ones I still have are the 280Z and the Z33, ill have to get some pics of the 280Z before too long.
