Hey bought my first z a couple weeks ago its an 05 black with 74,xxx miles, ill give some back story and info then some pics. My brother is a car dealer so i bought this car off of a car dealer site, it said it had undercarriage damage but run and drove so i decided to bid on it and won it. So i got it home and started looking over it, it had volk le37 wheels given 3 are bent and all have curb rash, both front and rear bumpers are cracked, and after i got to looking under the car and it on jacks the upper oil pan is cracked and i think the radiator might be busted. I do all my own work so im in the process of fixing all of this right now so its up on jack stands getting repaired. just bought a godspeed exhaust for it today because i got it cheap and might decided to do some more after its fixed, car also came with tein lowering springs and kenwood exceleon headunit. NOW FOR PICS of when i went to pick it up.... its really dirty.











Will add more pics when i get it all fixed and back together might get a front lip any opinions on lips?

 

Where are you from I saw you twice In the new Bern/ bridgeton area yesterday.

 

Looks like a great start, you may be able to get the wheels repaired.

 

Welcome and congratulations.

A little TLC and the Z will be as good as new. Rear wheel on drivers side does not look safe.

 

Welcome. What exhaust is on the car now? If it's a Nismo, want to sell it?

 

i feel bad for those volks. hope you the repairs come out nicely.

 

I'm sure you'll get your car back in working order in no time.
You can get those volks repaired.Good thing is looks like ALL need
work.When you get just one done,it usually does not match the
others.If you are planning on only adding a front lip,no other
body mods,I'd sugeest s lip that would blend well with the Z.
The best IMO is a Mine's.CF would look great.

 

how much did it go for?

 

welcome and congrats, looks like you have alittle bit of work ahead of you

 

congrats and how much was the winning bid? Let us know if you ever need anything for your baby! We have a polyurethane Nismo v2 if you want to lower your car without having to worry about fiberglass!

Thanks for the warm welcome all of you, Im from the Wilkesboro/Boone area i doubt it was me you saw car isnt on the road yet either lol. hopefully in the next couple weeks and yea i can get the wheels repaired ive already talked to some people out of Charlotte in NC that can fix them. I dont think the exhaust is nismo to my knowledge just looked to be stock muffler with aftermarket pipeing i just didnt like it so i got a new one. Also the winning bid was 6000 but you have sell fees and haul fees and all kinds of stuff that goes with it I think im going to have around 9000 in it or a little more when its done.

 

Welcome, I like the black on black!

 

well finally got it all back together for the most part and i love it.

 

Nice Z! Looks great now. Wish I was more mechanically inclined. Learning, slowly but surely.

How do you like the Godspeed exhaust?

 

I like it a lot actually, i might buy headers and test pipes to go with it because i would like it to sound a little meaner but definitely worth it in my opinion.

 

Looking good!

 

Wow man. Nice turn out. Im from North Carolina myself. May i ask what city you are from?

 

Welcome and Rockin Progress! Is that your gargage? I want it.
