This is one of those stories that will remind you why you love cars.
Callum Orbell always wanted a 300ZX and when the right one came along, he jumped on it and slowly restored it to his high standards. And then it was stolen.
Heartbreakingly, the temporary owners destroyed the car, but Callum managed to get it back and immediately set about bringing it back to its former glory - in fact, he made it even better.
In all our years shooting the special privately-owned cars of South Africa, this is one of the finest restorations we've ever seen.
And many people agree, so many people were impressed by his 300ZX that Callum has managed to start a business restoring JDM cars.

Fortunate to have seen the car in the flesh - its staggering! It really is in the top 1 percentile, i could sit and look at it for hours! The owner is a legend too, a real petrol-blooded car enthusiast, who is always available for a chat and to offer advice and help.
The car, the story, the turbo noise when he lifts the accelerator is just superb.
It’s cool to see a 2+2 TT built. Everyone isn’t he states focuses so heavily on the 2+0, seemingly regardless of whether they specifically want a TT or just go with NA. They always go for 2+0. I think there’s a lot to be said for how sleek the extra few inches are and what it does for the body lines on a 2+2. Plus (and I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea) but the longer wheelbase and longer body really make a widebodied Z32 look amazing. So visually domineering.
I think the 2+2 is the only one that was available in South Africa
There was always something about the 2+2 that didn’t seem right to me. And then I saw one with a stock 95 rear wing added to it. That brought it together for me.
Yes! Anyway to swap a rb26tt into a 300zx 2+2?
@@annawarren-sullivan7630 I’m sure there’s content on it on RUclips
Agreed. I had a 2 + 2. Wish i still had it
Love the story behind everything. Passion and dedication. Probably my favorite video yet for a build.
Amazing what this guy did and love that the video was filmed in such a way that he looked like his was in the first Fast & Furious movie
Superb review on Callum's 300ZX, video production was beautiful to watch. Wonderful to see the 300ZX being appreciated on the potential it has to offer with its timeless looks.
It's sad how Richard Hammond humiliated this car on that one Top Gear episode
Amazing video production, for an absolutely amazing looking car. One of the best looking cars I have ever seen as a car enthusiast. Well done to the owner on creating such a cool ride!
420km/h in 1991 by a street legal car!! These cars are beasts
Holy hell, just realised that's a very young Jimmy. Come a long way since then.
Callum has done such an epic job with this car
This car is my dream car
That blow off valve sound is causing me to have a crisis. 😍🔥
Agreed
Eish when he said it was once stolen I felt that.
Best 300 zx I have seen
one of the best looking 3Z. 👍
This is a legend reborn!! Outstanding build and condition.
I love the 300 zx, absolutely brilliant
This is one of the best car build stories I've seen... & in less than 10 minutes, amazing! To end with dude man now rebuilding Z's for a living was the best.
for the love of classic JDM a story of passion turned in a business nice.
My dream car since I was a kid when my Uncle had one. One day...
Beautiful Car - that was me In scoob that gave you the bumper. Amazing job
Awesome stuff! The way you restored it is simply sublime!
one of the best ZX never seen👍👍
WOW, this is beautiful. It's in showroom condition
Love Callum's build, easily the cleanest 300zx in the country! Him and I took some kids recently to their matric dance with this and my skyline gtr and it was amazing to see the reaction of their school mates.
The reactions you get from people while driving a Z32 make it all worth it. They're getting really hard to come by now the price has doubled over the last year.
Great video, that Z is 🔥 I love the 2+2
😍😍😍😍 Ive had my NA for 14yrs! Something about these Zs uff
I just love this!!! Great build man
You own a truly amazing car. Thanks for sharing.
i love that they captured the sound
Can see he put alot of heart and soul into the car,but for me is the sound,it sounds orgasmic!!!

That is one GREAT feeling huh ??? I get the same in my 98 Supra and my 98 240sx ... Shows that person knows what car you have and giving you a thumbs up
Absolutely amazing ride! I'm in love 😍
Great video and cool owner. That Abflug front bumper still looks so good after all these years.
Great work you have done on that incredible car.
What an INSANE car! Would love to build a car to this level someday. Also, I was view number 12,345! :D
Beautiful build. I really like the front bumper a lot! Can't wait to build my own 300zx
Absolute work of art. Love every inch of it.
Well freaking done on this project mate! It looks & sounds amazing 😍👏🏻
Big ups for rocking the Cotton On tee too 🤣🤘🏻

What a beautiful and the dump valve sounds are addictive.
I felt in love with this car when i was 20y/o

Callum's 300zx and his turbo MX5 is perfect.

BEAUTIFUL Car Mate
Really nice build for sure 💯
Great car and great owner!
Awesome! Always wanted to get one and do something like this to it...still do!
Love it !
I saw a dark Grey one here in Cape Town today 19/10/2022...... I almost lost my shit completely, this is a BEAUTIFUL machine I couldn't believe my eyes oh damn and the sound the damn sound went straight through my body. It was amazing
My grandpa just got an almost identical one of those. I can't wait to go see it in person!!
Very nice!
Beautiful car, done proper.
Neat. Sounds awesome too.
I had a red beauty 1991 bought it new (twin turbo) added about 20k tuning to it (heavy breather), and it had pull like today's Teslas. I lost it around and a telephone pole in the rain 21 years ago. I don't remember the crash but I totally remember the car and having such a great car. The classic joke, I got a Jeep after my accident and all my friends said, what are you driving the for, get a Nissan they are safer.
amazing car!
Beautiful ❤️
Well done. 👌
Love this machine
Love it 😍
Nice! It's an unusual sight to see a heavy modified Z32 with OEM tailights.
Beautiful car
This guy is a legend!
He is indeed!
It's beautiful
Nice ride
Beautiful
Amazing
Your engine is wonderful
My dream car
Gorgeous car. I like the Z31 more, but he did a great job on that Z32.
beautiful
Mmm.more videos like this please 👍👍
I want one of these so bad
Everyone who looks at this will want this🙌❤
Perfection
THE BEST CAR...EVER MADE IT !!!!(....FOREVER !)....INCLUDING,THE BEST BODY SHAPE DESIGN !!!!....,❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️,😍,,!!!!!)....❤️❤️❤️😍!
"stock the car comes with 300hp. Right now the car has around 600hp, because i got two of the same engines in it. One in the trunk one in the engine bay. So i got quad turbos"
My favourite Nissan
Callum is a cool guy and his car is even cooler.
Very nice Z32......well done.
Those rims though 👌
I love my Z32. . I painted it 350z chrome silver, Wings West body kit, Racing Hart m5, 235/18 front 275/18 rear. Greedy sp2 exhaust with Megan racing test pipes. I get laid off or fired every time I drive it to work, no shtttt. I’m sitting at home looking for a job now cuz I just got laid off this week after I drove it. People get really emotional when they see my ride. At least the police give me thumbs up all the time.
Best comment was timeless looks. Still looks great and take those T Tops out 😀😀😀😀🥰
Staggered or square setup? Amazing car. Thank you for the video.
This car is outstanding in the flesh, and Callum is such a great guy! Love the video 💥
So glad he didn't go wide body. Love the original lines of these.
or stance it like these shit bags do to the 350's and 370's
