President’s Column
by John Trautschold
My Fellow ZCOT members:
As I write this it has been an eventful year so far. We have seen the Autorama and
the Dallas car show come and go. With the top award at the Autorama going to
our club display. Well done all. There has been several Texas Tours. To the hard
Eight in Stevenville, Clark’s barbeque, and other locations. More desinations are
in store for the regular attendees of the TxTours, The Loco Coyote, the Loose
Wheels Roadhouse and others. Be sure to check in at a club meetings or follow
the ZCOT forum posts.
The club members have been very active in motorsports early this year. A couple
of group outings to MSR Cresson in March and June, and a planned trip to TWS
College Station in the fall. I made it out to the March MSR sessions, what a great
time, except for the rain and Hail on the first day. The cold temps also made it a
challenge to the open window requirement. I am planning to attend the TWS
motorsports session in the fall. It’s a great track going either direction.
The ZCCA convention looms close. August in new Hampshire should be a great
time. I can’t wait. The club plans to have a real Chili party this year. There will be
car show, a track day, autocross and tourist driving aplenty. The drive up should
be fun with a stop in the DC area for a barbeque.
Car mods are always on the mind anytime of year. I just wanted to say if you need
help with a mod or upgrade, please speak up. Someone in the club has probably
done it or seen it. We’ll be glad to lend a hand. Twin Turbo swaps have been
popular of late with a certain Z32 driver. Bravo on such a challenging effort. I for
one have been busy updating my Z with a new leather interior. The results are
great, see for yourself. Tech sessions grow out of this kind of need. We have
some planned for later this year, a Z32 rear main seal and others are in the works.

Member Profile
by Jim Arnett
New member Chase Wolf is one of our younger
members who brings a lot of car talent to our club –
it’s in the genes, more on that later.
Chase is a native of Mesquite where he lives with
his family. A single guy and 19 years old, Chase is a
freshman at UTD working on a Mechanical Engineering degree and is targeting a career in the automotive industry.
His first Z car is his current ride, a ’72 Lime (limon?)
green 240Z. He brags that this car only has about 56k
original miles on it – what a find! He has tweaked the
car with some classic Minilite wheels and the recent
addition of a NOS Nissan rear spoiler. A recent post
on the ZCoT Facebook page reveals that the SU’s are now getting a complete rebuild and
he has the entire engine bay scheduled for a facelift this year.
Remember that earlier genes comment? Chase’s dad – Jay, is a very experienced paint
and body guy who is also heavy into restorations. Jay has a crisp black 350Z for his driver.
When I first met Chase he had brought a beautifully refreshed ’74 Porsche 914 to Cars &
Coffee – a project he and his dad had worked on and have since sold. Other projects currently in flight are a ’76 Triumph TR7 and a Datsun 620 pickup.
Although working on a ME degree has to keep him very busy, Chase is a regular at most
meetings and at the monthly Cars & Coffee in Plano. While Chase is a bit young to have
had dreams of alternate careers (he really had not heard of Walter Mitty), he would like t

LOOKING INTO THE ZEXTRA REAR VIEW MIRROR
SUMMARY HISTORICAL TIMELINE of “Z” LEGEND FROM THE DATSUN 240Z
TO THE NISSAN 300ZX [Z32]
[Based on Nissan North America’s Press Release 5/95]
1966: Nissan identifies a market for a new kind of sports car. Its product planners envision an agile, compact GT whose performance and comfort would outrun its price. Nissan engineers begin work on a prototype which would become
the 240Z.
1969: The 240Z goes on sale in the U.S. on October 22, 1969. It features a 2400cc
six-cylinder, 150 horsepower engine and delivers a 0-60 time of under nine
seconds - all for only $3,526.
1970: Less than a year after its debut, demand for the 240Z is so high that the
Kelly Blue Book rates the value of a used Z at $4,000. Bob Sharp and Pete Brock
take the Datsun 240Z to the race track in SCCA competition - Driver John Morton
wins the C-Production national championship for Brock Racing Enterprises.
1971: John Morton wins his second straight C-Production national title.
1972: Bob Sharp drives a 240Z to the first of his two consecutive C-Production
national championships.
1973: At the close of the 240Z’s fourth and final model year, all-time sales reach
116,712 units.
1974: The engine displacement of the 1974 model is increased to 2.6-liters, and
the car is renamed the 260Z. Due to stricter emissions requirements, horsepower is down to 139. 1974 also brings the introduction of the 2+2 body style,
which accommodates fold-down rear seats. In its only year of existence, the
260Z sets a single-year Z-car sales record at the time with 63,963 units sold. Walt
Maas extends Datsun’s Z-car dominance by claiming the C-Production national
championship.
1975: Needing increasingly complex technology to meet even tougher emissions
regulations, Nissan boosts the Z-car’s displacement to 2.8-liters and adds a version of Bosch’s L-Jetronic fuel injection, creating the 1975 280Z. Horsepower rating is increased to 149. Sharp moves up to the IMSA GTU racing circuit, winning eight races and capturing the championship. He also wins his third SCCA
C-Production title.
1977: A five-speed overdrive transmission is added to the 280Z and horsepower
climbs to 170. 1977 is also the Z’s highest sales year to date (at the time), with
67,331 units sold.

LOOKING INTO THE ZEXTRA REAR VIEW MIRROR (continued)
SUMMARY HISTORICAL TIMELINE
1979: An all-new, second generation Z-car is developed, debuting as the 280ZX.
The 280ZX offers a higher level of luxury to meet the growing demands of the
sports car customer. Named Motor Trend “Import Car of the Year” for 1979, the
280ZX sets the all-time sales record for the Z line with 86,007 units sold. The Z-car
captures its 10th consecutive SCCA C-Production national championship. Don
Devendorf wins another IMSA GTU title for Datsun.
1980: A new T-bar roof option is introduced. Cumulative American Z-car sales
reach 500,000 units. The Z-car reached the half-millions sales mark quicker than
any other sports car, including the Corvette, making it the fastest selling sports
car in history.
1981: A turbocharged engine is offered for the first time on the 1981 280ZX. Sales
remained brisk through the 1983 model year.
1982: Devendorf and his Electromotive racing team win Datsun’s first ever IMSA
GTO championship.
1984: The third-generation Z, the all-new 300ZX, makes its debut. The 300ZX offers sleek new styling and a powerful new 3.0-liter V6 engine, elevating the car’s
performance image to even greater heights. The normally-aspirated 300ZX produces 160 horsepower, while the turbocharged version offers 200 horsepower.
The 1984 model becomes the second-best selling Z ever with 73,652 units sold.
1985: Paul Newman, splitting time between the SCCA’s professional Trans-Am
series and the amateur ranks, sets 10 track records in his 280ZX Turbo and leads
the national championship race wire-to-wire to win his third title.
1986: Newman wins his second straight SCCA GT-1 national crown.
1988: Scott Sharp, son of the legendary Datsun racer Bob, wins his second
straight SCCA GT-1 national championship, and his third title overall.
1989: Toward the end of the 1980’s, the overall sports car market faces a downturn due to a significant increase in consumer demand for multi-purpose vehicles
such as minivans and sports utilities. Back-to-basics is the name of the game
when it comes to sports cars, and for Nissan, it means a return to a more performance orientation during the development of the next generation Z-car.
1990: In response, the fourth-generation Z - the dramatic 1990 300ZX - takes
on tighter proportions and a much more aggressive stance. The all-new DOHC

SUMMARY HISTORICAL TIMELINE
3.0-liter engine offers increased output of 222 horsepower for the normallyaspirated model, and an incredible 300 horsepower for the 300ZX Twin Turbo.
The 1990 300ZXTT is named the Motor Trend “Import Car of the Year.” Motor
Trend also names it “One of the Top Ten Performance Cars.” Automobile Magazine honors the 300ZX and 300ZXTT as its “Design of the Year,” and names the
300ZXTT to its “All Stars” list. Road & Track names the 300ZXTT “One of Ten
Best Cars in the World.” Car and Driver names the 300ZXTT “One of the Ten Best
Cars.” American Z-car sales reach the one million sales mark in the 1990 model
year - making it the all-time best selling sports car.
1991: The 300ZX Twin Turbo is named to Car and Driver’s “Ten Best” list, and is
once again one of Automobile Magazine’s “All-Stars.”
1992: For the third straight year, Car and Driver names the 300ZX Twin Turbo one
of its “Ten Best,” and Automobile Magazine names it to its “All-Stars” list.
1993: For the fourth straight year, the 300ZX Twin Turbo is named a Car and
Driver “Ten Best,” and one of Automobile Magazine’s “All-Stars.”
1994: A race-modified Z wins both the 24 Hours of Daytona and the 12 Hours at
Sebring. It goes on to win the GTS Class at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, making it the
only car ever to accomplish such a record within the same year. And for the fifth
straight year, the 300ZX Twin Turbo is named to the “Ten Best” and “All Stars”
lists by Car and Driver and Automobile Magazine respectively.
1995: The Z’s 25th Anniversary. It also brings another award from Car and Driver,
as the publication names the 300ZX Twin Turbo to its “Ten Best” list for the sixth
straight year. Nissan, working with Steve Millen Sports Cars, produced a limited
edition 25th Anniversary 300ZXTT - the SMZ.
1996: Nissan will produce the 300ZX/300ZXTT in 1996. According to Nissan, in
recent years, the 300ZX/300ZXTT has outsold the Mazda RX-7, Toyota Supra, and
Acura NSX combined.
NOTE: Since the May Press Release, Nissan has announced ‘96 will be the last
production year of the “Z”.
