Sorry to hear about your Z. My 09 370z motor started going bad at 40k miles. It developed what sounded like a Lifter Tick due to oil consumption. It only consumed 1qt every 3-4k miles which some would say is not that bad but still enough to cause the motor to fail. Got a new (2011) short block installed under warranty after breaking the new short block in I started to see the same oil consumption 1qt every 4,000 miles.

Decided to trade it in for the Corvette Grand Sport.

I think a LS2 powered 370z would be awesome!
