well i bought my z last week or two weeks ago something like that but i didnt have anything to take a picture with but i was able to get some pics

 

sure is purty, looks like they changed the bumper and the hood/added those vents in it.

 

anyone have any suggestions as to what i should do ?

 

what do you mean ? what do you want? (try search first) but you mean looks wise? maintenance wise? performance wise?

 

First thing I'd change cosmetically is to get a 240Z bumper on there with a front air dam..

do you mind if I ask how much you paid?

 

just looks like the p.o took off bumpers. 280z(blinkers,vent hoods,efi,etc etc).u can either get a after market airdam or get a bumper. otherwise u get that open mouth fish look.......The car looks great. check over it to make sure their is no rust. dig the rims. look like wannabe of some sort 14s.

 

very nice 280!

 

i paid 1000 for it

 

^^^^^ WOOOOAAATTTT!!!! lol , assuming it runs good and has no rust you just ripped someone off. lol

 

OMG 1G I think I just got poked about a month ago!

 

1 g you lucky as dude man i wish i got a deal like that

 

Damn, that's an awesome deal!! Barring any major rust issues, that car is worth ALOT more...

 

it runs strong everything is good with the exception of some bushings that need to be replaced an thers a dent with some rust on the hood other than that no rust at all chassis is straight everything is clean

 

something told me, I KNEW I never liked you....lucky bastard (with all due respect)

 

Thats an incredible deal. I see Zs not as nice as your's going for alot more money on Ebay. Enjoy!

 

killer deal, im waiting to find another z that cheap >_<

 

sweet ride

 

Killer boots man....

 

HEY just question what are some of your guy's suspension set ups ive just been trying to get an idea of what options i have

 

We have a lot of suspension threads... check those out for some cool ideas.

 

I recently had Tokico shocks and springs installed.....huge improvement in the ride and handling. Recommended

 

A great Z, and a great deal (for you, not so much for the seller)! I'd get that hood damage fixed (vents were stock on the 280s, I'd keep 'em), and either finish the bumper removal the PO started, or find and reinstall the bumpers (your choice).

Also get ready to replace the bushings, and do the full urethane kit rather than piece-meal it. It's much easier to do it all at once and be done with it. While the suspension is apart, do whatever upgrade you decide on for springs, etc. And get the pieces powdercoated (cheap) if at all possible.

For suspension changes, I went with urethane bushings, tokico springs, and tokico blue tubes. It installed great, and sits nicely, but I can't say anything about the performance. I'm hoping to finally start the engine for the first time in over 4 years, this Sunday (please keep your fingers crossed for me!).

Might be worth driving it for a month or so to have some time to decide what you want the car to do for you ulitmately (track, DD, restoration, GT/roadtrip car, whatever)?

Anyway, that's just my $0.02. Great purchase, and enjoy your Z!

i dont see any paint at all on those rims. the center part of the wheel looks nice though.
