I wanted a Z32 from the beginning of it's existence. I didn't care that I was only 16 and without a drivers license. It was going to be mine. At the age of 18 I moved out of the parents house and half way across the United States to Ohio. I found work and quickly began to support myself and the toys I wanted. Less than 10 years later I purchased a 91 twin turbo with 82,000 miles on it regardless of all the warnings I heard about the turbo longevity and the massive labor expenses. Many people I talked to all said the life expectancy of the stock turbos is about 90,000 miles. They were all WRONG, it was 90,001 miles. No joke, mine died at 90,001 miles. So now I have this project.
