Just bought my first Z. It has a vortech supercharger, 6 piston baer brakes on each corner and a bunch of nismo suspension.

Here is the car

This car is really fast and am extremely happy to own it.

 

Congrats but hope you saved $$ for some new tires..

 

Welcome and congratulations. Exterior looks pristine. Interior looks like 100,000 miles.

 

Congrats on the car!

What the hell are you talking about? It looks perfectly fine for a 4 year old Z.

 

I got new tires out of the deal too.

 

Z above with 30,000 miles.


Z above with 54,000 miles. Which would you say has been well cared for?

 

Umm, I hate to tell you this...but the peeling problem is insanely widespread on our 06+ cars. I am the most careful person with my car, and even I have this issue. It's not a fault of the owner, it's Nissan's crappy materials.

 

what did u give for it?is it a complete vortech kit using ss box for ems? id go put it on a dyno to see where the tune is at and get a compression test because u have no idea how this car has been treated and built buying it used like this

 

Yeah, interior actually looks pretty good, I have an 08 and notice some scratches on the rubber pieces.

Although, on one pic, looks like a little pee stain on the driver's seat, did someone get a little too excited? lol

 

OK I remember problems with the 2006 interior. The "black" chips off with the slightest scratch. Assume that 2004 (above) is more durable.

 

Lol I saw that to in the pic. When I went to see it it wasnt there though.

I traded in the red GS400 on the site.

I was also wondering if it was the standard vortech tune or if it was tuned at a shop. Is there anyway to tell if its the vortech tune? The original owner is a weatherman in LA so im thinking of trying to find his email and asking him for some more info on the car.

 

Its cool. Did not intend to pee on your parade. Welcome and congratulations.

 

Black and Frost interiors do this. Your old 2004 had just a piece of plastic there. When they made the interior nicer for 06+, they changed the piece and added a softer layer on it too for a smoother finish. Unfortunately, that finish chips and peels like crazy.

 

Congratulations on the new car I would check out the tune and motor as well.

 

Congrats! Where in NorCal are u located?

 

They showed off that bald tire like it was a feature or something lol. I really hope you had that motor checked out compression test etc. If you didnt hope you have another car and $ set aside to rectify any problems.

 

might want an LSD since its got a bit more power and appears to be a base model.. (no steering wheel controls)

 

lolz at pee stain, congrats on your on the purchase of your new car. lmk if you decide to get rid of those nismo wheels? the ad said 18" forged mono block wheels.

 

Nice! Congratulations.

 

"All NISMO products were used on the rest of the car. Nismo stainless steel exhaust, coil overs, 18" forged mono block wheels, and front/rear sway bars. The breaking system has also been upgraded to the extremely desired baer 6s calipers along with cross drilled rotors."

So does this system prevent the car from breaking?
