would you buy this z?
looking for a Z. I have read that turbonetcis kits are not very high in the food chain. Does anyone know if this car was on the forums? I am not trying to buy a problem. Im not a noob to boost, just the 350z

car looks like it wasn't/isn't well taken care of..interior looks nasty. I'd personally prefer to pay a little more for a used ride without turbo that was in better looking condition.

If it has a turbo then there are two pretty obvious negative factors to consider:
A) The car was used and abused by previous owner
B) The block and internals are under more stress due to the FI
Factors A & B together multiply the beating that engine took so I don't think its going to be a reliable car now or in the near future. I would never buy an after market FI motor with that many miles.

no f*@% that car dude, its a problem for sure. and its not the best looking one out there. id get a stock z for that price in good condition and then mod it yourself, that way you are not buying someone else's mistake and every mod that you put into it you'll like.
