Finally got to go out and take some decent pics of my Z... Just thought I would share.

P.s. if anyone noticed, my headlights are a bit high on the inner corners (bumper side). If someone has a write up on adjusting that a link would be awesome!

And I guess I'll show my buddy and brother some appreciation since they've been helping get her fixed up...

My brother's 2012 Si and my buddy's 1996 SHO. Both nice cars in their own respects.

Thanks, I'm loving it. Its rare enough to be one of only two in my area. Since its black it seems to look a lot cleaner than it actually is, lol. Needs a good paint job. I think next on my list is coilovers and a damn sound system. Just something for good sound quality. All my current speakers are pretty much dead.

Do you know how the maintenance is on it? How many miles? What mods does it have?

About 170k on the body, supposedly 70-80k on the motor. Not sure how the maintenance was kept up with, oil is good and it has the s2 ptu. Only mods I can tell are single pop charger (looks like an eBay kit), SS headers, looks like stock piping, aftermarket (unknown brand) mufflers, 18" enkeis with 245 Pirelli P6's all around. That's all I know.

Thanks guys. I wasn't overly sold on the wheels when I first got it but they've grown on me. They don't have the staggered, deep dish look that I think looks amazing on these cars. After living with them a while I like them. They fit well (albeit the car needing coilovers), I like the bronze color, and hell they're Enkei's. Eveyone whose seen the car so far like a the wheels too, so I guess they might stay. Although if anyone has something that I might l like I might be up for trades on the wheels. Just thought I'd throw that out there, lol.

Well I have a set of 16" chrome American Racing Torq thrusts but if you decide you want to sell them I would be very interested.

Depends on what you'd be willing to offer honestly. For the most part I'm a "everything's for sale" kinda guy.

Oh, and 2 days after taking these pics, when the car is running wonderfully, it decides to just instantly spit sputter and die And won't start. Kinda like it ran out of gas. I've got no spark and code 21. The only thing I can think is fried PTU, although it is a series 2 unit. It was still in the stock location. I read that the CAS is a possible cause, but wouldn't that throw an 11? Working fine one minute and dead the next.

New PTU fixed it. Plenum ground was a bit loose and fried it.

The wheels are 18" Enkei RSV. Not sure of the width. Tires are 245/40/18 Pirelli P6.
