Nissport - Showroom Still On Kingsway?

[DarrenJC]

Hi all,

Has anyone noticed the old showroom on Kingsway full of dusty 300z's just before the freeway entrance?

I think this used to be owned by Spencer from Nissport who is out of business now... Seems weird that it's still there though.

Is his old mechanic Joe working at Dontex now?

is that what that building was, i have always wanted to know i think the building is up for lease at the moment, first time in at least 4 years

yeah Joe works at Dontex in Vermont now.

i didn't know about this showroom on kingsway, but he did mention that he had zeds in storage so you could be right.

nobody really knows what happened to spencer and nissport, just shut everything leaving cars and parts locked up in the other workshop too. i think the mordialloc workshop has a new tenant.

apparently he is working on rain water tanks now

It's no secret as you can see the Z'd through the glass when you drive past. I think Spencer must own this place as he was always talking about opening it back in 2002. It's been too long to lease it...

I was trying to contact him recently but don't have him number. Anyone know it?

[Sandeep]

sorry can't help you there, all the numbers i had for nissport (work + spencer's mobile) were disconnected back in 2007, haven't seen/heard from him since then.

I remember working around the corner from this place on Kinsway back in 1999 and the same cars were there. Every time i drive past, i still look out to see if the cars have moved. Theres a ZX, supra, FTO and once upon a time a Soarer. These cars would be in vertually brand new condition. Dont know if the engines would still be ok though.

I have also taken notice of this place.

Cars I have seen there were a Supra / 300ZX and a Soarer.

Like you said, covered in dust.

I thought it was some sorta performance / tuning garage or a placed that just sold parts.
