So wasted a weekend going to look at the z, lets just say those pictures are not of that car. The inside was dirty, not detailed, it was in a accident but never reported, horrible over spray job and blending. Drove it for a whole 15 mins after i let it warm up the temp went through the roof. They lied their ass off on it. After i was done looking at it, young kid with mom and dad looked at the car and were about to do paperwork on it, didnt even test drive. I feel bad for them. So the hunt is on pause now. If one pops up ill check it out, just seems like the Z idea is fading away day by day haha
I see they've warranted their bad reviews then.

That's a shame. frown.gif Even worse that someone else is buying the car without even looking at it. The 350Z isn't a car for a new driver. That's begging for problems. frown.gif Not to mention the potential engine problems...

>Seen the price tag on a V160 lately? It'll be just as much or more than the price of the SC300. Definitely stick to the R154.


You just gotta get lucky on a V160. smile.gif Got mine for less than $2k. smile.gif Crackhead deal that you'll probably never see again.

Or you could steal my idea and find a manual MKIII with a blown head-gasket and throw the 1UZ into it.

Ive thought of getting a MKIII a couple months back, i could find one but that search would be hard to find one that isnt all rusted to hell since im in ohio, but im willing to travel its the right car i want at that time.
Buy my Miata so I can start over again. tongue.gif

There's a guy here in Houston selling a '91 MK3 with a 2JZ-GTE and V160 swap. He's asking like $8k for the car. Poor dude's selling it to cover his medical expenses. :\
