    I remember sitting in a 350Z at the Melbourne Motor Show back in the early 2000's. It felt so futuristic at the time. It still looks it actually.

      OMG same hahaha. It was a bronze colour with caramel interior. I've just started my apprenticeship and I promised myself that I'll get one. End up with 350Z,370Z and finally the Z. I was hooked ever since I was playing SNES where the character drives a 300ZX chasing down baddies and shooting from the car.

      Was effortless 10+ years ago. It's not expensive to make a 300hp engine. It's that they stopped doing it do to emissons regulations. My first car was a 1JZ soarer with 350hp with basic bolt ons. Paid $5,700 for it. Sold it years ago. They probably go for $25k and up now. Just that the times have changed do to supply and demand sadly.

    As a Z enthusiast, I just wanted to add: the most common issues are Door handle failure, dash cupholder failure, bleeder valve. Good mention about the Gallery gasket failure and CSC failure. I would recommend VQ35DE engine owners to be careful pulling the dipstick slowly, otherwise you get a bad reading of oil, most owners ive spoken to check it when warm. These cars are capable for every application, but get massive hate because of how the exhaust sounds when straight piped.

    Love the Z'ds, always have since I was a teenager. When I stopped having to do the daily school run for my daughter and 3 of the neighbours kids 3 years back I was really considering a 370 or a G37/Q60 Infiniti. Prices were a bit silly then and I also thought long and hard that there is my son (who has special needs) and of course his school mates in the same boat. The reality was that even though that most times it's me and my young bloke in the car (he loves the Zed too btw!) often there would be his friends who will probably never drive either (so there would be three in the car) , so I bought what I believe to be the '4 Door Z'..the 2012 Lexus IS 350 ;-). ..and we love it!

    To me the 350z is the perfect middle ground. The chassis has potential to do any kind of motorsport, and can be a reliable, comfortable fun daily given preventative maintenance. It's not full of electronic complexity like today's cars, and it's not full of mechanical complexity like the TT 300zx. I feel like these are now in the same space the S13 and R33 were 10 years ago, parts are affordable and plenty

    Valve covers. If you can't verify they've been changed buy a new set now. You'll need them. And don't get cheap aftermarket ones. Valve covers are essential part of the engine. Don't cheap out
    With the convertible be sure to check the 'rubber band' straps on the interior of the top. They get stretched out over time and the top won't fold correctly causing it to rub against the frame and tear. Also the main motor (sometimes called the 5th bow motor) which raises and lowers the top can go bad over time and need to be replaced

    For some reason the 350Z always riminds me of a shoe in its design for some reason.
    While this looks like a nice car the risks of buying one over its competitors just doesn't seem worth it.
    It's definitely a thirsty beast with it's fuel consumption for the engine size which isn't a good thing.

    Main problems you need to worry about: Lack of oil changes by previous owner = failed timing chain tensioners (noise at cold start) and gearbox synchros in pre 05 models with the CD008 and older gearbox revisions (shifting into 2nd, 3rd and 5th)
    If there's no issues with those, the rest is generally pretty cheap to repair, loads of parts out there.

    • @pass_the_flask
      @pass_the_flask Месяц назад

      To critique the driving experience, the steering is pretty average (heavy, lack of feel in the steering). Also the clutches have no feel combined with an "on-off" feeling at the bite point, can make it a bit laborous to drive as a daily.

    Have owned three of them! - my first back in its release year of 2003 - a manual Track coupe - loved it for about 4 years then sold it to buy a house . In 2018 I bought a low km manual only yellow anniversary model(2005) - enjoyed that too as a weekend car for a few years before selling for somewhat more than purchase 😊. Missed it so much I bought an obscenely low clicked 2004 automatic (yes sacrilege automatic)350z track in black with an as new orange interior and optional factory rays wheels - love it auto and all . It is truly an amazing car even when compared to my recent/current daily/work cars which have included (Alpine A110 ,mk8 GTI, New defender 90 d250s , Volvo V60 ,VW Arteon, Tesla Model 3) but most weeks I will still choose to take the 350 :). - fab honest review as always - cheers from Brisbane

    Had a 2003 years ago and sold it. I very much regret it. Last year I bought a 2003 Track from a Nissan master mechanic for only $10,000 Canadian LOL. The car is mint. Came with a pricey Nismo stainless exhaust too, sounds sooo good, accentuates that VQ growl w/o being obnoxious.
    I've since spend another $5k in preventative maintenance (used CD009 tranny, new crank/cam sensors, knock sensor harness, hatch shocks and springs, clutch and heavy single mass flywheel). This car is so fun to drive - IF you know what it is, a cheap, reliable, sporty GT car.
    In this era where speed cameras and heavy fines exist for any kind of spirited driving, this car makes an awesome and honest DD.
    Yes, the rear strut tower bar does suck and is 100% the worst design feature.

Something that serves two purposes, a commuter car during the week and a fun car during the weekends. BTW, I'm surprised that no competitor from Mercedes was mentioned. W203 C320/C350 or the equivalent CLK coupes.

    I absolutely love s chassis cars aswell as 32/3 and 4 skylines but have just never found the 350/70z or even the new one appealing for some reason!! They just seem a bit girly as do the maxima looking "skylines" of the same era. Old z cars are stylish though the mcm one with an rb26 is amazing!

    These vehicles, in my country, aren't worth much considering what they are irrespective of condition or age. They range from AUS$10 000 (clarification: early model, manual with 160k kms) to AUS$25 000 (clarification: This is a factory stock, manual car with 50k kms).

    The good news is that Nissan is still using the same parts they used to make this car on the new Z, so you can still buy one new!

    Too bad you can't find one in the US anymore that hasn't been slammed and completely clapped by some fuggboi. I was considering one, but it was far easier to find a mint low mileage Mustang GT. Shame though- I remember how fun the manual HR was to drive.

      All of the Australian delivered ones had LSDs, we only got the track and touring packages which are higher specs. The USA got the base model trim which is the only one without a factory LSD. The factory LSD is crap though

    It was stupidly overpriced Nissan Australia when launched in Oz.
    It was never intended to compete with cars in a similar price point by Nissan and was pitched much lower down the market in the USA.
    It was meant to be more like the FT86/BRZ which followed a decade later.

    These cars would have been 10x more popular if they had a more aggressive headlights/bumper design. Much like the Miata, such a feminine soft look for a performance oriented car.

    • @cenciende9401
      @cenciende9401 Месяц назад

      There is absolutely nothing 'feminine soft' about it or its look, you're blind. Also everybody knows how popular they already were, didn't need to be moreso at all

    • @wt8213
      @wt8213 Месяц назад

      @cenciende9401 when new most people thought it was a soft look compared to the likes of the skyline, silvia, ext. Dont take it personal. If you own one cool. Its a well engineered chassis. But there is a reason a 10 year older s15 cost 3x as much as a 350z. And that's down to esthetic appeal.
