You silly boy, I bet you'd get ***** slapped by the boys at twinturbo.net for saying that.

Good luck with the N/A, you'd be begging for a TT once you drive/ride in one.
truth hurts? j/k

Its true though that 93-96 are better engines. I didnt get that otop of my head. Its on zdriver and z32.org.

Can you please explain to me WTF you're talking about? Sharp pistons? Hahaha.

Anyways, I've ridden in S3's Z. He's right, thing is slow. Those sharp pistons must really be getting to it.. LOL

well since you did buy the Z, and it isnt turbo, just think of it like this, if you had twin turbo its just somthing else expensive to go wrong. Nice pick man

You should have kept your Maxima, at least its faster, and it has none of those sharp pistons.

Ok i got the shrarp/piston part wrong cause I was researching for like 2 night straight and got confused with somehting else but here is proof that early 90s engine valve problem.

"1. Avoid very early production cars. Turbo models produced prior to 1/90 and normally aspirated cars produced before 7/90 may have problems with defective valves. The valves may unscrew themselves from the head causing a loss of compression and a rough idle. If you run across a nice car that is on the border, check the engine number to be sure. Turbo cars with engine numbers below 619550 and normally aspirated cars with engine numbers below 777599 may be subject to this problem. (check the data tags rivited to the drivers door jamb, and under the hood for date of manufacture and engine serial numbers)"

You didnt have to be a little bitc*h and go tell everyone. Its sooooo hard to correct someone isnt it??? And WTF did u mean that i should of stayed with a maxima cause its faster and more reliable. Fukcing hell ye its prolly more reliable/faster but time will tell. And Why da fukc would I buy the Z if I didnt like it?

hahaha, told ya, you will have fun with the Z, hope you have a stable job and lots of DIY knowledge or its gonna cost ya plenty.

even the N/A is a b1tch to maintain, trust me, my friend has 2 of them.

And no my car doesn't fall under those criterias, so oh well on that one.

And its your fault that you didn't research properly before posting **** about stuff you don't have a clue about. Don't blame others for your own mistakes.

But welcome to the Z world nevertheless

Z for 2 people, max for 4 people

yes, all my friends seem to be Z freaks, but they don't punch a lot of hp until you go high RPM and or above 90 mph.

Then I get raped. Besides, I'm autoed, so go easy

Seriously, Naturally Aspired Zs can go up to 180+ mph. Some of these Z freaks who bother me everyday did it to 164 mph.

I on the other hand, have GXE limiter, and top speed = 115 (pass me, pass me, I'm slow)

Z is awesome car. legendary. maybe I got brainwashed by my Z freaks who surround me, but that is one tight car.

side note: my bro put $1000+ for repair, took all his modding $$$
