My Volksw... I mean 350z

Forgot about this site forming.
Just picked this thing up not to long ago. I've always been into Z cars, infact my first car in high school was a 79' 280zx, owned a 280z and 240z as well, and a few, well a lot of VW's in between, and a couple Subarus... But this is my daily for now.

03' 350z
Just your typical Lip, wheels, Suspension mods and Intake

I plan on spacing out the wheels a bit more soon, other than that... just drive it to and from work.

Nice Z man, never thought you'd get another car aside from a vdub though.

I just sold my Bugeye to pick this one up.

The WRX was cool, just wanted a 2 seater again!

Looks nice!

clean and simple

how is the mpg?

pics of previous ride???

nice. i love Z's.

very nice ride...pics of old rides..???

Nice ride Mike, I'm thinking about getting me one too........

damn thats a nice house. your ride is hella clean too haha..

Thanks Guys! Yeah I've always planned on getting a 350 when I could afford one. I've always been against loans and yadda yadda so it took awhile to get one.

Any way the specs are:
Tein Coilovers
Nismo Lip I think it is
Nismo Staggard 19's
eBay CAI w/ carb label
6000k HIDS
Black headlight housings



Anyway... Here were the last couple rides:

02' WRX

EJ20G, 18g turbo, 3" TBE

I'll just stop w/ the cars from about 1 year ago... the list goes on and on... I buy cheap, fix up and sell for more.

I've probably had about 20 cars, and 7 bikes so far...

How can you have an Ej20g? The 20g was an obd1 engine from the earlier GC8s and you'd have to literally rewire the whole car just to get it working for an obd2 car.

Who knows... it came with it haha!


Thats what I was told at least... all I know it was a closed deck 2.0 swapped in by garage tuning in orange co...


Well I am not sure if it was a 20g, like i said just a closed deck 2.0 so I assumed as much... maybe a ej20g v7?

v7 comes with ej207

It would be some backward ass shit to swap in an ej20g into a newer car such as that. The only logical thing I can see them do is throw in a closed deck ej20g from an older sti and reused the ej205 wrx heads, that way you won't have to redo the wiring for the whole car.

I dunno, probably did that? I never cared enough about the car to actually read all the paperwork I got with it.

I traded a CBR1000RR for the car because the head gasket was screwed up and there was no exhaust...

Fixed that stuff,

slapped some rota's on it, drilled brembos, JNA Lip, headlights, hids on it and sold the car....

so which car is quicker to you, the wrx or the Z?

The WRX was by far quicker... I am not sure what exhaust he had on it when GT tuned it, but it ran funny as hell when I put a Greddy TBE on and wouldn't boost more than 10psi so I sent PDX a few data logs and had them send me a couple maps and the car pulled pretty damn good!

Not as fast as my VR6 Turbo set up top end wise, but loved being able to actually have use of 1-3 gear as opposed to My FWD VRT

The 350z is quick. But not a Fast car by any means.... it's pretty slow. But it is nice to be able to drive around w/o any worries of a hood pop anymore...

Mike that clean looking ride you got there. I have always like the slick looks of the z.

i think i saw this clean 350z yesterday its nice!!!!!!

if i don't buy another evo, i'm considering a 350 Track Edition, if i can find one in white. like you said: not the fastest car, by any means.. but i can have some serious fun with it. plus, i like how they sound and look. i realize the 370 is a better car, but i still think the 350 looks better.

If you live in Hanford maybe! I went to lowes and Dennys. Other than that it just sits in the garage as I drive my jetta most of the time (to work and back)

I have drove both the 370z and the well of course the 350z.
The 370z was a fail in my opinion. I like my 350 quite a bit more.

yeah i saw u on grangeville i was in the beemer tho

What type of bmw you drive? I live off grangeville/10th

its actually my wifes car its a e90 sedan with a hartge lip should have some csl rep wheels on by next week when the tires come in have u seen the 350z in town with the volk le37 that ones pretty clean also
