Small Jobs
Hey, the 350z im getting is a 3005 with 70,000 miles which is alot of miles so I was wondering if there are any small easy jobs I can do once in a while to keep the engine in great shape. Im not good with cars so notinhg to complicated but any small things to do udner the hood would be great

Hey I want the connects you got... you bought a car from the next century already.. damn lol jk
I don't know too much about the Z's yet either cause i just bought mine too. But i know with certain cars there are things that happen like clockwork. On my old eclipse i was told around 80000 miles the timing belts need to be replaced and sure enough at 81000 i had some ticking and a $1000 bucks later my timing belt had to be changed.. 
But good luck with your car.

You must have stolen the flux capacitor off of a DeLorean right?
BTW, I though that the engine size way going to keep on getting bigger. 350z, 370z and so on; they must have realized that the best engine for the Z was the good old 3.5VQ made in the early 2000s.
Anyways, they've got a bunch of fuel additives (STP) at Kragen and Walmart that claim to remove engine gunk and clean and restore you car. They cost about $7.00. They've got them in all kinds of colors with each color doing some kind of job for your engine. You can try that.
I had a teacher who swore by Slick 50. He had/has an old Buick and said that Slick 50 was amazing.
