How's it going. New here, but not new to Nissans. I'm a big Nissan head. First car was a '92 240SX FB that I built all motor, had a '90 Z, '92 Z, '95 Pathy lifted, '02 Pathy lifted, '99 G20, and my wife has a '10 G37. Hopefully if the new Titan XD is what I hope it will be and Nissan uses a competently paired rear end instead of the crappy baby rear end in the current Titans, 8I'll be trading my Silverado for a Titan XD, and I'll be getting another TT Z soon.

Anyway, I'm going to be picking up an '03 6MT Sedan later today. Pretty good deal, I think. Comes out pretty clean with 120k. Going to have to do the 120k tune, fluids, and I'll probably change the water pump while I'm at it. Will need new tires too, but I'm already looking for some 18" sport wheels to replace them with ASAP.

Will probably only do a Z/G drop or I may look into some ProKits. We'll see. Not a whole lot planned for this G, but it'll be a third car that I'll get to play with since my wife doesn't want me to touch hers.

Anyway, just looking around the classifieds right now and trying to find some deals. Great to be here and look forward to getting some ideas from many of you.

Good luck, price on sedans is scary low so remember that when looking for one (I would say you should prefer low miles low owners).

Picked up the 6MT Sedan yesterday. It's an '04 that was unmolested, no mods or anything. I do have to get it back up to speed with tune up stuff, so I'm starting to compile a list of parts to buy to get on that ASAP. I hear a whining every once in a while in the engine bay, so I know the belts are getting worn. I'll have to check brake pad level, get some fresh fluids, and a drop in filter too. I just bought a set of 18" sport wheels in the classifieds because they need some new rubber. Tune up will be next and things like tint, suspension, or probably clutch/fly will be shortly thereafter.

Seems like a good plan!! Consult the forum if you need any advice, just don't be surprised when suspension costs more than you expected.
