So well over $13,000 in parts alone (prices for some items now are less than what I originally paid, and this amount does not include install costs/tuning costs).

Engine: VQ35DE = Factory Rated at 287 HP (now she generally makes 100+ HP then mild bolt-on Z's).

VIN#: Since the motor is not swapped I will not post the VIN here, interested people can PM me for the VIN.

Condition: Runs great (those who have driven or rode with me always enjoy). Two things to note, almost a year ago I had a minor front accident that resulted in replacing my front bumper and reinforcement beam (nothing else was damaged, I got very lucky and after getting my VIN you can carfax to see). And second a couple of months ago at work, someone bumped me in the side of my rear bumper (very minor so I didn't make him pay, most don't even see it until I point it out). If you are unhappy with the rear bumper, good thing is there are replica body kits that you can buy (around 500-700 dollars for full kit). Or you can go onto the Z forums and find a rear used one.

PRICE: $24,000 Firm which also includes all the OEM stuff I have (cats, intake, exhaust, etc.) along with the Cusco Oil Catch Can that I haven't gotten around to installing.

CONTACT METHOD: Post up here, PM me here, and/or you can call my cell at (please if I do not answer to leave me a voice mail).

Truth is I love this car, I love the way it looks, and I love the power/RWD. But having this car (monthly payment and money I put into her with credit cards along with all the stuff I still want to do to it which means spending even more money) have been a major factor in me getting my own place (a nice place, not a sh*tty place you move to just to move out from your parents house haha).

I have been going back and forth with thinking of parting out, trading in, selling as is, and keeping it for almost a year now. Not because there is anything wrong with the car, just that I don't make enough money to do with the car as I want and get a nice place to live.

I work so much I don't even get to enjoy the car, so I finally decided to sell as is or part her out and then trade her in for a car with a much more smaller monthly payment.

Also I will provide all the Z/G35 forum links, all OEM stuff I have, and the four huge ass volumes that is the Factory Service Manual for the Z (which costed me over $300 from Nissan). Also I will provide other helpful information to help with maintaining the car.

I am really losing alot on this, but I have to look at how much I would spend in the future continue to mod this car and not living in my own place until this car is paid off along with the other debts... AND I JUST CAN'T WAIT THAT LONG

Here are the pictures I have, many of course have seen her in person.





































At about 9 PSI...









At 8.5 PSI on Sharif@Forged "No Bull" Dyno. At Forged Performance, Sharif decided to not add additional corrections that you might find elsewhere. So hence the "low" numbers on this one. Also to give a idea at their last dyno day another guy and fellow ex-Z owner brought his brand new Chevy Corvette to the dyno day (which is where this dyno came from as well)... Chevy claims 400 HP out of their LS2 6.0 L V8... And he also put down 319 WHP so kinda gives a good idea of what I am putting down now....








Also for those wondering if possible to get a loan. It is, you would have to go to your bank for example.

Let them know you are interested in getting a car loan for a used car. Yes they will go off Kelly Blue Book Value, but you can convince them to give you the extra money (which in this case is the additional 4 grand) for the upgrades/parts invested in the vehicle you are looking at.

And you can show them that if you had to you could easily remove the parts to swap with the OEM stuff and get more than 4 grand back.

Though if your credit is good, and since the money difference is not that large. Getting the loan may be very easy, the bank would make two checks.

One for the Nissan Finance Corp. who I originally have my loan with so your bank would recieve the title of the car until you pay it off.

And the second check for the remaining amount would be made out to me

If you have decent enough credit and need financing, then call American General Finance Co. @ (770) 451-7001. They may not get you full-book value so make shure you have a couple thousand in cash or can get another small, unsecured-loan somewhere else for the difference.

It was a BBQ place off 19-41, around 5-6pm the saturday of Nopi.
There was a sh*t load of em.

[Peking]

Wow Nice Car/Good Deal, Free Bump. Are those all GSP cops in the 3rd pic?

Thanks man, and that pic was taken Saturday afternoon after Nopi... It is a local BBQ place in Griffin, we went there the last couple of years like tradition but last years Nopi the GSP were in there taking up all the big tables

bump for my fellow 350Z owner...for all those that are intrested this is a KILLER deal...im having my engine rebult(new pistons/roads/fuel return system/transmission/APS Twin turbo/ ect.) and its gonnd cost about how much this car is going for, g'l with the sale man

Thanks a bunch man, I really would like to keep the car... But if I do I will never pay my credit cards off and I been visiting lofts in Atlanta so now I am dreaming of city livin' lol.

Who is doing your build?

wow, that is nice, hella cheap too. what's the catch?

No catch, just that trade in is about 17K from KBB. Which means I would have to part out (which also means the time/money for that), I have all the OEM stuff except the OEM fuel system (stock injectors, fuel rails, lines, fuel pump), OEM clutch/flywheel.

So I would have to pick that stuff back up and who knows how long that would take and since I work 6 days a week it would be a huge hassle trying to part the car out (which I would have to do at my buddy's wharehouse that is 40 minutes away from me so would make some trouble for getting to work and back to the car then to ship stuff off etc).

I could part out and still make good money back then trade in for something much cheaper. But the bad part is for me is with the upgraded clutch, lighter flywheel I have now on the car... It is just to much trouble buying a used combo then take time from work to pay a shop to swap them out (not like a lighter Honda motor lol).

Then I have the Cusco LSD too in the Z, which would mean I would have to pick up the OEM diff/axle stubs and once again pay a shop to do that swap.

Along with the HID kit I installed, as easy of a install that was. I would just leave it on the car.

I have even thought of just taking off and replacing the OEM stuff with what I can do on my own while leaving on the LSD/JWT Clutch/Flywheel/HID's on the car when trading her in for something else... But I feel like I wouldn't be getting enough from the dealer considering what is still left on the car and stuff so would def. like to avoid that.

Also the ECU has been re-programmed (re-flashed to raise the rev limiter, no speed limiter), so the ECU would have to be re-flashed again back to stock (over $500 from Technosquare).

I owe $20,000 on the car, and compared to only getting maybe $18,000 from a dealer... I would sell for $24,000 and use that additional $4,000 to pay off a small loan and credit credit card (which would help me achieve my goal of getting my own place).

who tuned your car???sharif at Forged?GRD?Z1?

Sharif, only man I would trust with my car.

if you plan on parting it out, let me know.
ill buy stuff off of you

Def. trying to avoid it, though if I have to I will be posting up on the Z forums with my parts

Bump for a sick ride

Thanks folk!

I'll vouch for this ride.

Peking takes care of his car better than he takes care of himself!
He's has not taken any short-cuts in the process of boosting it.
excellent price!
ps. you keeping the bike?

Haha thanks Robb, and yes I am keeping the bike... Infact I am most likely using the bike as my only mode of transportation since it is paid off. And if it is raining I would catch a ride with someone to work.

Nice Z, g/l with the sale.

Thanks!

This is the most well taken care of Z ii have ever ridden in/seen. If i wasnt going to italy than i would go ahead and jump right back into debt for thsi bad boy.

Thanks Ken, you take plenty of pics when you are in Italy so I can be even more jealous

the owner might want some personal favours. :idb:

Muhahahahah, Danny of course I do buddy esp. from you

Where is that with all the polics in force????

That was during last Nopi, BBQ place in Griffin.

sad to see another one go...gl Peking

Yeah I am sad about it too, but I feel as if my life is changing and doing this overall would be best for me (paying off my debts).

What restorant is that, look at all the cops in the background.

Never knew the name, but when you are going down South 19/41 Tara Blvd. to Griffin it is on the left behind some trees. After the Motor Speedway but before the city of Griffin.

Man bump for a sick car and awesome deal. If I could I'd trade my '03 Maxima for it lol G'luck!!!

Thanks!

You know how crazy my dad is...he just randomy did all that shit to my car for no reason lol

Yeah Sharif has the Valve Body Upgrade for the auto tranny for boosted Z/G35's.

Sharif is the man, and I have been going to him for quite some time now (almost two years, way before Forged Performance when he was mainly selling parts and working with his friends at Carolina Performance Racing).

Sharif and them have done almost all the work and all the tuning (I have taken stuff off, then put back on, the exhaust, and plenum). Working as much as I do finding a good trust worthy shop was very important.

[Driftk1d350z]

[Peking]

yupp im gonna go to sharrif for all my work, im working on getting a turbo kit from a guy on my350z.com...

Ah which one?

[Zilvia]

yea Sharif is gonna tune Shezzhot once we finally get our turbos installed

[Driftk1d350z]

Ah which one?

im looking for an APS twin turbo but if i cant get one in my price range ill prob go with greddy...you can find a good used one for around 3800 now. Turbonetics would be my last choice, id wait untill stage 2 comes out tho

[Peking]

Sweet.

Which turbo's and into what?

If you are thinking APS, I would suggest you strongly check out the Extreme Kit (now you would run the lowest possible boost amount until you can get the motor built but still get out 390-400WHP)… Only costs slightly more than the regular APS kit but is far better, nicer turbo’s and external wastegates… Internal wastegates blow balls IMO as in the regular APS kit. And since the Extreme version is a Tuner Kit you can pick up your own choice of EMS like HKS FCON/UTEC/E-Manage Ultimate.

And if you are strong with the regular APS, then just go Greddy with the upgraded dump tubes that Sharif offers. Great kit, and much cheaper compared to the regular APS.

[~The_Duke~]

damn you can barely tell that it has a front mount from those pics that is cool

[dingleberry]

bump for a very well maintained ride w/enough grunt to scare a few Z06's

[Peking]

damn you can barely tell that it has a front mount from those pics that is cool

Yeah it is nicely hidden for the "sleeper" look.

Also brand new Base Version Z's start at aboud 27K... So common someone jump on this before I end up changing my mind again and keeping her

bump for a very well maintained ride w/enough grunt to scare a few Z06's

Thanks Wil, don't think new Z06's but maybe ones from five or more years ago

[StupidBikerBoy]

Damn thats a nice setup. Wish I could.

Wont get into the Greddy vs APS thing here and tarnish the thread but this is an AMAZING deal on a turbo 350Z, a lot of Forced Induction Z owners are crazy with their for sale price but this is a steal, I thought I thought I got robbed when I sold it my APS G for $28k. Good luck with the sale and its been tuned by the best.

Yeah there is more than enough pissing contests on the Z forums about which turbo kit is better and why

Like the countless Turbonetics Vs. APS Single threads

Oh yeah I have been checking the prices that other Z owners are selling for. So I def. felt comfortable with my price.
