NICE!!

I have a white 02, 6 speed. got it back in December of 2012. repeated throw out bearing failures has been the only major issue i have had over the years. I kept the engine pretty much stock until last year when her 20th birthday came up and she hit 300,000 miles.

Nice looking Max. I just purchased this one a few days ago but have to wait for my pcm, nvis, and keys to get reprogrammed.

Nissan Data Scan II and an OBD2->USB cable will allow you to do all that and more right from your laptop in seconds. If you are a DIY type of guy, its worth every penny.

engine just came with the car. I just threw every bolt on and had the ECU reflashed by Nisformance. I raced a stock 370Z the other night and even though he got off the line faster I caught him and got a tiny bit ahead of him than I let off. we were getting close to the Wawa where the cops around here usually hang out and refuel...

dam she looks good. auto or 6 speed?

main thing with these cars is to keep your eye on the oil level, check it at least once a week and let the car sit for like half an hour so you get a good reading on the dip stick.

what do you have planned for her?
