the best part about the Z is probably that it IS NOT special or unique
no hybrid tech in the engine
no fancy triple clutch self shifting transmission
no carbon fiber body
no ipad built into the dash
it is relatively compact (by modern standards), RWD, and comes with a manual transmission, a combination that is increasingly rare
the Z was never designed to be the most cutting edge sports car, its a mass production car that sits at the bottom of the sports car range for Nissan (the other being the GTR at the top)
if anything, it's a good platform to start modifying
its nothing special at all in stock form. it has numerous deficiencies, actually, like overall weight, the clutch slave cyl, the engine, and lack of adjustment in the front suspension
however
it's a great looking car
you can fit badass wheels
its 10 years old so nearly any part is available for it relatively easily
most problems are known and fixable
