Re: Anyone raced a new Nisssan 350Z?

I'm just stating a fact that a stock 3.1 liter isn't going to beat up on a 350Z unless it's modded up really good. Even then, a V8 modded up really good would be more believable. I am not trying to...

Hmmm.... I'm not sure how what I said originally was seemingly disrespecting your car. I was just replying to your thread asking if $300 is a good deal for this car. Good luck.

You can always pick up some nice 4th Gen. rims from a T/A or a Z28. Those look better than most of the 3rd Gen. rims in my opinion.
