I’m thinking about getting a JDM car. I’ve been driving German cars for as long as I can remember, but recently I stumbled upon the 350Z, and it got me wondering if it’s actually a good choice.

    Thats such a broad question lol. You need to be more specific on what you’re looking for it to do.

    Yeah I think objectively for the tuber community it is. NA V6. Manual gearbox available. Nothing fancy. Yeah it’s good.

    Yes, the trick is finding one that hasn’t been abused.

  4. Do some research before you buy one otherwise you will most likely crash

  5. Hard clutch for the dayli but overall it is a really great entry sport car, yes it is old but it means it has soul, a reliable VQ and a lot of spares for it.

    Out of all the trumpets, this one is the fastest.

    For the money you get a lot. It’s Nissan so it has some… quirks. Anything Nissan made post 2000 is gonna have some game breaking flaw it really is a question of what and how bad… I remember reading something about early vqs and a seal in the engine valley becoming a problem… and I mean I own one so I have a vested interest but mines the 37 and a sedan so much heavier.

    The engine performs okay for a na… throttle response is garbage so you’ll want a throttle controller… auto gearboxes are trash (I would know) so get a manual.

    And I mean this is wildly subjective but it’s an ugly car… I mean it really is… they’re as popular as they are because they 6cyl dedicated ice(non hybrid), 300ish at the fly, come in a manual and are rwd… if there was anything else similar in the same price bracket these would be rusting in fields. The look like the Audi tt and an Altima hate fucked a love child into existence.
