Default ***** to the wall

I returned from a tour of Afghanistan Feb 2011 from a gunshot wound. I sat around sitting on about 15,000 saved up and found me a sweet yellow 350z 36,000 miles salvage title on craigslist. Looks nice but I do notice a few issues that should be easy to fix.

This car is a 2005 Yellow 350z front end damage has a ok carfax no frame damage I can see they replaced the radiator fender and bumper. Has some privat rims, stage 2 clutch, straight pipe exhaust, Megan racing ewww. But for 11,900 and I can still partyy hard in nashville. Plus this car has to get me laid. Yes its possible in the passenger seat .

My history with vehicles I should say has been horrible. At age 17 I was a run away and bought a 2002 zx6r ninja all souped up. Didnt have my license or know how to drive. I was sponsored to stunt by a local shop. In the end 2 reckless drivings ****.

Well I get in my first real car. Time to figure out the difference between bike manual and car manual. Not too hard, sorry clutch and transmission.

First project, Cold air. Done, now for a test run. 6th gear almost finished out on open road late at night straight away no cars. Boom hood flys up, locked up my brakes for some god dam reason the abs was disabled. I'm thinking I hit a ****ing deer why the **** did the roof just hit me in the head. I'm calm do a few spins, down the middle of the road end up tail off the road. Car still drives just really bumpy tires are ****ed. Rims have rocks inside them. ****.

Hood ****ED, fenders bent a little, wind shield ****ED, Roof god damit. The frame is perfectly fine..... poor 350z... Now this is my daily drive let me mind you. So I buy a cheap set of stock tires a carbon fiber hood and banged out all the roof I can then did a shitty carbon fiber roof over lay. Looks ok haha. Hey, E3 pay isnt **** and since I was medevaced back to the US my promotion was ****ed up by the rear d first sgt.

Insurance.... whoops shoulda got that... So now its drive able, I'm heading home for lunch exiting the gate trying to get around this guy and I pop 3rd gear in and the transmission takes a **** on me.

I ****ing hate this 350z boy did I **** up. Now I need to fix this ***** and learn on the way. If anyone takes the time to read this hope you enjoyed it. If youd like pictures of the car before and afters. Let me know and I also have a video of the DNA strand I left down the freeway from brakes locking up at 150ish

1) Thank you for your service.

2) Maybe you should stop popping percocets and driving like an idiot.

1) Should of been 3...

Have you tried percocets? Lol While I sustained a injury a nurse asked me If I wanted to feel ok or really good and gave me 2 percocets. So end result I liked them but my family has a history of drug abuse so I stopped taking them after about 2 weeks. Ill never pay for any narcotics/drugs.

How do you drive your 350z? Ever raced or topped it out?

Yes, I've had percs after minor surgery and I've also tracked my car.

What was the point of this thread? You come in here dropping your Army history, how you ran wild in the streets like James Dean, and your family history. You just trolling or looking for Dr. Phil up in here?

You're an E3 so I'll assume you're 18-19 from that and from the way you claim you act. Possibly if you stop treating your car like a barracks rat it wouldn't be such a broke piece of shiit.

No idea what trolling means. The point of this thread was for someone else to read this and laugh about my immature reckless actions. I am 21 and completely new to this ****. But since your Dr. Phil thanks for the advice and **** off . I didn't value my car like a prom queen and it ended up the way it is. Now I broke something and I get to fix it and acquire some experiences. Your probably some old **** who has some high paying gay *** job, so go pay some dude 40$ for a oil change and hopefully I've wasted enough of your time you'll.


My purpose to joining this forum was to learn about the 350z. Fix my 350z and ask for advice and maybe copy some others choices in parts/jobs. I'm a big fan of DIY and fabrication projects.


Have you ever raced on the street Dr. Phil?


The stupid filter is yourself. Wheres the waste time posting stupid ****! RIGHT HERE. Muahaha so ****ing clever.

Well I'm glad youneidnt run away and have alittle fight in understanding your a retard!

You can click on my link in my sig and see my journey with the car and my **** ups!

None of which ended with wrecking it, in such a manner you did!

Thank God a bullet didn't get you and an accident didn't either! Take it slow man it's not a hyper car. Changing lanes or racing on the street at those speeds on stock suspension is only going be fail.

So quit with the baddest assness! You ain't special

OP has big-time post first deployment ******* syndrome. Thinking he's special and the only dude who has ever been to Iraq or Afganistan.

Plenty of kids have died after deployments doing stupid shiit, he's lucky he's alive so far.

I have and I can tell you, that while it is a rush and fun it is also very very stupid. And when you get caught, like I did, you will realize it. I can tell you that from experience. It is a very expensive lesson to learn. Especially, when you have to hire a lawyer. I keep that lesson in the back of my mind every time someone revs their car at me.

WELL SAID
He is right kid, ur not the only one who has deployed on here. Why would you be bragging about how bad you ****ed up your car? Maybe you should L2 drive and no have blown all your money on a car that maybe you weren't ready for. Too late now I guess. Oh in case you were wondering, Cavalry Platoon Medic, Iraq.

What a waste of breath.

Hopefully you didn't put the other guys in danger with your stupidity.
