looks like the previous owner might have tracked it a few times due to light track wheels, roll bar, mods, etc. so theres some wear and tear with that car

You need to:

Find a reputable performance shop in your area, a shop that knows 370z preferably.
Call OutPerformance and establish you as the new owner, and if they have any clue what to check for first, and that your shop will call them for questions if needed.
Finally, sorry to say, learn from this lesson and not buy anything you don't know.

How much did the dealer sell you the car?
Normally I stay away from cars that has been internally (engine) modified unless you know much about mechanical engine DIY's stuff.

Hopely you did not buy a "money pit"of a nismo.

We are here to help.

Wow good find Cv129!

cv129 · 10-01-2016, 12:03 PM

^ thanks. Rusty did the heavy digging. Lucky that the page still exists.

I actually remember this car listed for sale by a dealership some years ago, I don't recall it being listed for high $ amount.

Sold it to me for $27,000 with 18,000 miles. With a factory warranty (they wrote & promised) and I bought an extra warranty... I figured it had some sort of modifications but had no clue it had a turbocharger. I went back to the dealer and they're not helping me at all..

Im sorry to hear that. That is a reason why we call them here stealerships.
Just scare them write a letter that you will sue them for denying the written warranty they promised. Try to read if there are any exceptions in the warranty.
That you are not getting any help with your problems with the car.

I think we need to see more of this area

This is going to be a money pit down the road. I personally would never touch a car like this even with everything working properly now.....

I would find some way to return the car even if you lose a little money. I suspect that the car isn't even street legal with all these mods and I am sure that it's illegal for a dealer to sell such car, especially without disclosing it.

Oh believe me Ive tried to return with no luck.. I'm super happy that a few forum members helped me find the previous owner and now found a page from the shop that did all the mods. At least a now I know what I'm working with.. It's fun to drive and looks SWEET.. We'll see how this turns out
