Hey everyone


Sooooo I just got my first 350z about 60 minutes ago! It's an 03 Touring. I've had my 03 Civic for the longest but definitely already am loving this new feel in the 350.

The thing is, i bought this with 157k miles.... only for 5k with no problems straight out of a dealership that was selling repo'd cars. Nothing mechanically wrong with it etc. and it's had 2 previous owners. CarFax came out good, clean title and everything.


My worries are with 157k miles, what should I be looking out for or checking up on more frequently? I know with Hondas, 157k is is still just a baby but i'm just a bit concerned with no much experience with 350's or Nissans in general.


Any advice or tips to keep this baby running a long time would be highly appreciated as I have some big plans for it and don't want to do anything to jeoparidze it.


Thanks!!!!!!!! I'll have pics up soon! (But for now, in case you're all wondering.... it's Black! =P)

Start saving for a motor, if you do it yourself it can cost as little as 2k for a used motor.

Really? A motor? How long do I have left? I was at least hoping for if not 300k maybe 250k? I'm not going to do anything too crazy with it mods wise, wouldn't want to risk it's life expectancy.

But other than prepping for a new motor, anything else? Sorry if this is too much of a noob question or something.

^^has nothing to do with the mileage..has everything to do with the price. a decent z should/could sell for more than 5k with no engine at all. nice upgrade tho GL. oh and id get to a mechanic and a frame rack if it were me.

Congrats on the Z! The engine itself is quite durable, just check out the 200,000+ miles thread etc

Your asking a pretty dumb question just to be honest. Kinda like asking your friend who comes over at Christmas saying I wonder what's in this box. We don't know. I'd save for a motor. Why is that hard to believe? You bought it for 5k
