How much does a new short block replacement even cost??

Looks like about $4000 - 4500 for the bare short block itself

I knew that part but how much for all of it with labor and everything

Youll probably want to shop around quotes.

I would guesstimate another 1000-1500 in parts (pumps, gaskets, etc) and 2500-3500 labor probably depending on who does it.

Ya.. for many of us the idea of spending that type of money to end up with the car exactly how it already was is absolutely not an option. A large percentage of Z enthusiasts would pursue an aftermarket build if the car needed a new short block. But I also understand that is a road that many people do not want to travel and having to do it against your will is not ideal. Its a rough situation to be in.

You will have to shop around to find the best price but finding a competitive price isn't all to look for because you will want to purchase your short block,long block,or rotating assembly from a reputable vendor you trust. Also available engine and parts warranty will be important. You will have to research your options and talk to other Nissan 370Z enthusiasts about this.

I have an extended engine warranty on my 370 up until
135,000 miles and I'm currently at 112,000. I noticed my car is starting to burn oil. We're you able to get your engine fully covered? Also did you have any mods done to your car? I currently have test pipes on my car so I'm wondering if I should be worried? Or do you suggest I put stock cats back on before going to the dealership?
