I read the title too quickly and somehow threw the word "high" in there, so I came in thinking it was going to be about sex in outer space.

In fairness to me... there have been stranger threads on the forum.

Hmm but good question, did you get one of those service guides with your Z for record keeping? It tells you everything that Nissan does for every so miles.


I only have 18k on my 06. No oil consumption! Keeping my fingers crossed.
i never heard any axles or wheel bearings that last more than the car.

78K on my 03' with 25K on the new longblock. So far so good with the new motor. I just changed the oil over the weekend and was about a qt. low. Its not freaking me out yet, but I did go 3500 miles on my last oc with Royal Purple.

I had a similiar thought

I'm about 50 miles away from 112k. No big issues, I just had to clean the motor in my passenger side window.

Go Z!!

82,000 on my '04 350Z - nearly 200,000 on my '90 300ZX.

Good to hear somebody else can't stop driving theirs.

I just turned 20,000 on my 03 350z (2002) build date. I have 143,000 on my 1987 300zx turbo and 238,000 on my 1987 300zx. The 87 wth 238,000 on it dosen't even show any major oil use. Maybe a 1/2qt after 3000 miles. I love the VQ and VG engines.

03 with 45,500, it is good to read that the Z is blowing by 100,000 strong and relatively maintenance free. I look forward to many happy crusing miles.
