1 Pro: Simply amazing car to own and drive.
  • Fast off the lot, a lot of car for less money.
  • Styling is to my taste.
  • Decent gas mileage.
  • People doing a double take when they see/hear the car.
1 Con (If any): Rear/side visibility like none other...
  • Road noise. Negligible because I have music!
  • Any mar on this car makes it a lot worse than some standard car... because it's a Z.
  • "I can't drive this anywhere, people are going to key it!"
  • "Goddamnit, that's the sixth time I've been revved at today!"
  • Oil temperatures. I drive normally and like a grandma yet it goes up to 230-240... it's insane, no car should ever do that unless you're pushing it.
Future Plans: Light performance mods, preferably within warranty. Maybe nismo intakes, and also considering test pipes or HFCs, due to the restrictive exhaust design of the Z. When time passes I'll also look into a completely new exhaust system. Other than that I wanted to look into AccessPORT or Unichip piggyback/ECU reflashing and mapping. If Nissan stops being such a whiny little child and admit to the oil overheat problem, then an oil cooler.


sexy as **** dude!

Year: 2006
Mitsubishi Eclipse GS
Sunset Pearl
60k Miles
Bought May, 2006
Pro: Great Torque for a heavy 4 cyl, nice deep sound with added CAI, smooth ride, excellent sound system for stock from the factory (fosgate 6 disc in dash changer w/ sub in the back).
Con: Heavy, Slow, too wide, suspension is not so great, brake system is good but discs were not made for the car which forced me to upgrade to slotted rotors and new ceramic pads.
Future: Nothings, Z is in the queue.
