I actually enjoy working on old cars, replacing old worn out bushings and stuff is fun. Now, with new cars you don't get that.

[articdragon192]

That exhaust looks soooooo clean

[Taniguchi_Is_#1]

the location of that oil filter is very convenient.

I'm with you, I thought the same damn thing when I saw it...

[zTheStig]

Dyno vid added mmmmmm

[LeonTheProfessional]

god i so want one of those

[Kouki_Love]

good shit. im still not a big fan of the 370 though...

[T_wei]

they made it too much a chicks car...

[ayuaddict]

heard those guys can do a spring change in less than a hour :tweak:


i think thats pretty normal dude, especially on a new car like that.

interesting stuff though.

[AutoTune]

you make it too obvious you work for tanabe

Fuck yeah! What a rare car, the 370 is just the pure meaning and essence of SPORTS_CAR. It even rev-matches for you, has VDC and tons of other useless fucking bullshit.

the location of that oil filter is very convenient.

Yep, because there isnt enough room in the engine bay.

[burnsauto]

cast aluminum subframe with tons of webbing for support? ...yes. I may have to sell my s13 to make a nice down payment for one of these.

[drift freaq]

Chicks car? You need to stop huffing the funny stuff.

[ronmcdon]

I could care less if it was a 'gay man's car'.
I'd take a 370z in hot pink if it were offered.
imo, the 370z looks best in fruity colors like red & yellow.

exhaust seems well built though with materials & welds.
like how the resonators don't look to be too intrusive.
not too sure if I care for all the elaborate bends in the piping.

oh hush you old fart :newbie: :keke:

[93nismo]

i dont think the 370s a chicks car... there beasty. i unno were the hell u came up with that... or were anybody does for that matter.


i wish my car was still shiny...

[TUnity2]

the location of that oil filter is very convenient.

yeah, the only bad thing i can think of is if you put a high capacity oil pan on it you will probably need to relocate it.

[T_wei]

IMHO i don't like what they did with the lights gave it a very feminine look dont get me wrong its a beast of a car and i love the z but i just like the way it looked before. I think they coulda done something to make it look like the nismo Z it gives me wet dreams.

[Wake]

Yep, because there isnt enough room in the engine bay.

wtf are you talking about? yeah all new cars come with uneeded shit but thats cuz fat lazy americans like luxury so car makers cater to that.
or did you forget how the greater than > less than symbol works?

and from what i can see that oil filter looks like its in a pretty damn good spot for mechanics for once, how can you say it doesnt fit in the bay?

I think they coulda done something to make it look like the nismo Z it gives me wet dreams.

uh in my opinion after seeing many in person, the nismo Z was an abomination, it looks absolutely retarded on the street. I would take a 370 over the nismo anyday.

oh and did you guys forget what the greater than> less than symbol is for?

i agree. the nismo Z was kinda ehh.. looked poopy

[ixfxi]

and from what i can see that oil filter looks like its in a pretty damn good spot for mechanics for once, how can you say it doesnt fit in the bay?

Easy, the engine bay is too crammed and there is no room to fit the filter in the bay, so they shoved it down at the bottom of the motor. Its not a bad place, but most likely... its the ONLY place.
