- If you've been around Z1 enough then you know, or at least have heard, about the silver beast that was built years ago. Many people recognize the car but few know the full story behind it. We sit down with Russell to take us back to the beginning of this epic build.
Ready to take your Z to the next level you're just a click away.

Thank you for keeping the 300zx legacy alive and living
Just got my z32 twin turbos done with new intake caskets running 26 pounds making 563 hp 482tq and my nice dark green paint still perfect
Cool video. Nice learning the history of a company that I’ve spent thousands of dollars at over the past 10 years. Definitely appreciate what you guys do for the Z32 community.
All Z community
So far the only 300zx company that still keep interest in an underrated car till this day thanks guys
Concept Z also does
I've had mine for 20yrs! You'll have to take it from my cold dead hands!
Where do you live?
Keep your car man, just keep making it better than before
@@Lofi.z34 Oh I intend to, cheers bra!
Your terms are acceptable.
I have had my 95 TT since 96, 24 years and it is brand new again . Just finished up a 2.5 year complete restoration on it. Spent WAYY to much money and wouldn't sell it for twice that much. Will never sell it.
The best Z, and one of the best cars ever made. Love the 300zx.
I took a chance and sent my Z32 down to Z1 in 2002/2003 (if I remember correctly), and I've never regretted it since. I'm sure there are other great shops, but Z1 is the only place I bring/send my car, especially for anything mechanical that I'd rather the pros handle. Those guys are like my Z32's doctors. John and Robert have been like my brothers from day-1. Seriously, between those two, I think they know my car mechanically better than I do - they built and tuned it. I speak to those guys like I'm speaking to family. I think, for the most part, the Nissan Z family is really supportive and welcoming, and Z1 Motorsports is really a microcosm of that community. It's all encapsulated right there in Carrollton, GA.
Holy shit it was actually on the road! Great story Russell 20 year z owner myself. I remember you guys on the net back in 1998. Think I got my first performance parts from you in 2001 or 2002. You have served the z comunity well we all apreciate it. There are others to like specialty z and ash, but you have proven to be the biggest by far. Not gonna lie always been curious what that z would do in the quarter mile though? Doesn't matter it's such a nicely built can't do anything but apreciate the build. Keep up the good work man.
Russell,
You will see my 1990 300zx show up from California someday. When you do, just know, I want it all!!!
thanks for all the work and effort to keep this car and others on the road
First off, thank you so much for all you have done, and continue to do to keep THE most beautiful car that ever came out of Japan alive and well. No Z since can hold a candle to it. Why Nissan decided to ruin the look of the Z we will never know. Had Toyota come out with the 350 and the like as Supras that would have been an improvement, but not in the case of the Z. You guys did a fantastic job on that car. A fitting tribute to an already beautiful car. I bought my 95 TT in 96 and will never sell it.
Cool back story. I went there about 8 years ago for a job interview. Didn't get the job. But was cool to see that car and cut away view of motor.
We loved the fact that you can dial down the power to make it a comfortable daily driver.
Our second z32 TT manual had 650 hp at the wheels but was not fun to drive on a daily basis, due to clutch, power curve etc problems and almost bankrupted me, supporting the local council. ha-ha ..........
We also owned a 400hp auto at the wheels that was Amazing to drive. The previous owner did the upgrade perfectly & gave it 'pocket rocket', standing start acceleration by installing a completion talk converter. We regret selling both those z32 TT 2 + 2.
We have just bought a 'barn find' 1991 zx TT 2 + 2 which we will lovingly restore to pristine condition and will become our weekend fun car, weather permitting. ha-ha
Wow amazing story. I have a z32 and always bought my parts from you guys since some are hard to find. Keep up the great work
THESE GUYS ARE GREAT! BEEN A CUSTOMER SINCE 2000!
I wish I would have known you guys back when… I’d have been to your shop in person. 😢
Always loved this car. Still have some photos of it from the NOPI show
I bought my 1991 Z32 in July 2000. One of the first things I bought was some fog lamp pieces and other stuff I dont remember. But I r3member dealing with Russell directly when he started it and told me he had bunch of Z32 being parted out for his new business... Still have my 91. Triple black 5spd 2+0.
I just started building my 90 z32 at 17. Y'all's website has helped me so much. Thank ya
Great to hear! If you need any assistance please feel free to give us a call!
That's great, to see the youngest generation have an appreciation for this car. That is what will keep it alive.
Same here just bought one at 17
Great video, PRAYING for the continued success in your business.
That's absolutely beautiful! The 90 to 96 300ZX is the coolest car ever made in my opinion and yours is one of the best of them. Not a big fan of the silver but still...
Beautiful car. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. I love the Z32 chassis! I have owned 2 of them. One USDM twin turbo and a GCZ32 RHD twin turbo Fairlady Z
Still my favorite Z32!!!!!!!!!
keep up the good work! bring 300zx back in trend! It was a good time knowing the history of the company and also mentioning about an underdog car like z32!
regards,
z32 malaysia community!
A great story and a great shop. The TWINZ body kits are awesome - i can't wait till they are off backorder. Just wish they didn't stop making their 300ZX throttle bodies as no one makes them now
Awesome success story 👌 Great company, great team 👍
Starting buying from you guys a few months ago and i'm from australia, great products and awesome postage!
I found you guys in 05 when I bought my Z and Iv been buying shit from you guys ever since
Awesome video! Here's to hoping the next z is in the same spirit as this one
That would be great, as none of the others have been.
Has always been, and will always be, one of my all-time favorite cars...tuned or stock.
Z1 Motorsports never fails
Its a beautiful Z for sure Russ.
Nice video , keep pushing and building we look forward to more content
Super clean 300 👀😳
Love this, have silver grey 370z , need a silver 300z roadster!
Hey Z1Motorsports, by any chance you guys have people visit a customers house to troubleshoot their Z32? I recently bought one and I have had some problems come up. I've spent the last 5 months trying to get it on the road again but I am stuck and don't know what to do. I wish I could tow it to your shop but it's an hour away from me. I live 30 minutes north east of Atlanta. I understand if you don't send workers to people's houses. I just figured I'd ask because I cannot afford to tow it. I just want to know what's wrong with my Z32 but I am so busy with college it's hard to find time. Especially since I have worked on it for months now and still haven't made any progress. It seems to be stuck in limp mode with no check engine codes, I've bought 3 MAF's, a new knock sensor and have checked everything that could cause limp mode. But still haven't made any progress. I am open to suggestions, but like I said, I wish I could afford to take it to a professional like you guys. Keep up the good work, love what you guys do for the Z community.
Long live z1
i like Z1 you guys have good stuff
Does anyone know where to get a replacement frame for a 1993 Convertible top???
That z is super clean, one day I’ll get there with mine. To create a company around the car you like is passion. Great video I would have like to know the specs on the engine tho.
Got the same hre wheels on my 300zx convertible
Who did the widebody?
I am deploying to Iraq but I have a 300zx tt that has sat for close to 10 years now. I have not had money to fix it and life has happened but I have kept it with me through multiple moves and a divorce I want to use my deployment money to get it back up and running in the best shape it’s ever been. Can you guys at z1 help me out? I’d love for it to be running when I get back.
I have the TD-06 Turbo's , wastegates , manifolds and downpipes off of this car for sale!
My husband and I love the 300s to us it's our lambo if u ever wanna sell this one well take it
Do you have a supercharger kit for a N/A VG engine? (90 300ZX)
Can't see that ever happening given the slope of the hood. And if somehow it could it would WAY to expensive compared to doing a twin turbo conversion.
What gearbox does this car have
Cool story, I’m saving to get a NA kit for my VQ37
BTW, you should write down what you want to say, you look really nervous lol
Also some more video editing and background sound/music would help get a better impression
Hope you have another 1k to get it tuned to actually make power from those parts
Z32 best body z ever. If i won lottery would buy any 2 seat t top and do great swap. 370z na 6 speed. 320 hp 6 speed. Lived my 90zxtt but i would live modern non turbo. 320hp is more than old tt and less plumbing and hassles. Beauty of z32 modern engine and trans. 320 hp is more tha enough for street for me. To me than is perfect z.
I want to drive the wheels off it without constant shop stays.
Whats the bast place to sell a 300ZX
More than likely local Facebook groups seem to be the best. Just be prepared for low ballers.
Sad y'all don't take care of the z31 the original Z chasis
Interesting that Ash didn't get brought up lol
What exactly is needed to make 1000hp without damaging the engine?

Should have named the company z2 instead of z1 because you sell z32 parts not z31......
... what
I always forget Americans say zee. It sounds so weird to hear 300zeex instead of 300zedx
Right, because we say it the right way xD 👌
Because it's a Z. w, x, y, and Z. Not Zed. What is zed?? It's not an English letter, I know that much
But not dyno numbers 🙁
This car hasn't been on the dyno in a very long time, the last time it was on the dyno it was making a bit over 1000hp.

This guy buys the cheap stuff n then expects high quality....lol n then thinks he's in the right about complaining about it ......ridiculous btw almost everybody knows what you get when you order that stuff, I personally order the cheap ones because they ain't that bad for my needs.. I like to do a little custom work to my parts to make it look a little more modern and the little flaws the parts come with I can easily fix myself so I end up with a super nice part my way and on the cheap 👍👍
