I asked the seller "Is this a replacement 3.5l V8 compared to the regular 3.5L v6 which comes standard in all 350z's"
Haha, sorry for whoever buys this one.

I just sent him a message then realized the previous one (^^^) had been answered. He called it his typo.
Here is what i said, tried to sound as noobish as i could hehe
"Is the engine upgraded too? I noticed you said V8, i know stock 350z's are V6. What has been done to the engine? Thanks."

Look at the signs: body damage, broken sway bar, missing/damaged wheels, bad alignment, gauges/intercooler still in place but not hooked up, headers...
He probably sold the UTEC and turbo to someone that already owns a Z...
