Smile Saving a z33!

Hello, I'm new to the whole Nissan world but I've been a fan of the 350z since they first came out, at first I couldn't afford one but I sold my Prelude here


to own my own 350z. I went through a lot of 350z's before deciding on buying this one.

There was a lot better ones i could have bought but i didn't want this z33 to go to waste! Being 19 and buying my own 350z makes me want to keep it a long time so why not take on this 2004 Enthusiast? I'll be cleaning it up and building up towards a turbo car in the near future. Here is the z33 as of today!

Thank Zoidberg that you bought that Z... it was going down a dark path... and I mean literally dark with those blacked-out headlights... keep it up.

Oh that's nothing, You should have seen the fake sunroof and muffler tips that the previous owner welded on that went to nothing... fake blow off valves in the exhaust pipes, led lights all over.. She was in critical condition

You get HIDS, cruise, TRAC, homelink mirror, 6spd MT, etc?

I got all that when I found my Z at work Enthusiast package after looking at this site in the top 100 questions!!!

They can bash on my age, I'm responsible and take good care of my cars, and unlike the rest, I'm paying the whole car and insurance myself. Not a penny out of my parents pockets (:

I've only had my Z 2 weeks tomorrow, haven't done much but take off ricer things, like stickers, spoiler, fake sunroof, fake blow off valves, and 2 extra muffler tips. The car still has the black wheels in the picture above.
