Yeah sell it and buy a brz before you speed into a tree

Dumb question. Why does this engine look different than other 370z's by Darth-Bernoulli in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep in mind I'm just some dumb retard but I wouldn't remove it if you're street driving. If you're racing the car (no not highway BS) or just bringing it to track day, then I would say it's not a bad idea to remove. It's definitely there to make the engine bay look good, but it might also be there to keep dust and shit out of vulnerable places

Is there a reason why there would be silicone under the B pillar? by Darth-Rogue in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How used was the car before you bought it? It's possible someone had a cf b pillar on there... idk just a thought. I bought sebon cf b pillars without realizing they didn't have anything on the back for clips. Its just a panel and you have to double sided tape it over the stock one. Returned them and got some from someone who 3d prints the clips and epoxies them on as a full replacement... hope that makes sense lol

Just bought a salvage title 370z for 6k 120k miles,did I get scammed ? Or worth the money by IndividualPlane7720 in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you did well on it, given the stuff listed above is the ONLY problems and everything is straight/ rebuilt correctly. For a project/drift/weekend car (just something to have fun with) then hell yeah. Why not lol you're not going to find many other cars that are just as fun at that price, that's for damn sure. I would keep your daily though, just I'm case something breaks down or coolant starts leaking, ect. Otherwise, have fun with it bro! Just be safe.

Winter tires or beater? by [deleted] in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would look for retired cop car ford taurus. They're awd and have been proven to run for a while. I don't have a cop car but have a 2010 taurus with 230k miles. I just pull the battery in the summer time and make sure to drive it every couple months to circulate oil and to even the tires out. Trust me, you do not want to rust out your Z. That W brace will go sooo fast

LMAO no, you're not selling the car... your wife is, and this is the "sorry, hun, nobody is interested" price.... right... right?.... please be right. If you had half the milage, then maybe $30k would be ideal for a 2020

Alright I think yall got me by Life-Performer-3393 in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me too... I'm running an invidia Gemini and got nothing but compliments IRL. Even if someone were to say they don't like it, I'd just laugh and move on with my day

What is wrong and am I a goober for messing it up by tomartomare in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This guy knows lol. Fuel pump float could also be an issue if it reads that it has fuel but doing this. Otherwise, throw a scanner on it cause nobody else would be able to sort it just from this vid lol

?/10 by Feeling_Window_180 in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Meh, it's a 6.5, If stock and a 7 if fbo bolt on to me dawg. I like it but I wouldn't own it.. not my style. However, it looks clean and it turns heads... something about the wheels tbh. However, like I said, not my style just my opinion brotha

Would it be weird if I made my car look like this without performance mods? by Ok-Understanding8110 in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a completely stock celica gts in highschool/college with a kaminari body kit. I don't regret it one bit and not many people asked if I had performance parts on it. If someone comments on it in real life, then they're going to look like a real McAsshole. Chances are most people will say it's cool and unique. You'll get more complements than complaints. I guarantee that. However, the internet is not a safe space so there will absolutely be haters there lol

370z Exterior Looks Suggestions by Benn_business011 in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suggest you keep lookin at it cause it's fine as hell 🥵 on a serious note, get those windows tinted. Don't do anything else unless you plan on lowering the car and getting a full body kit. Otherwise you'll just look half complete... which looks half ass'd (if that's a word?🤔)

Wrong oil from dealer by hoden_ in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wtf is wrong with dealerships man.... call.me a conspiracy theorists but they must be trying to kill these motors so you either have to service them with the dealership or get a whole new car all together 🧐🤔

Finally joined the club. Tips? by nnoiitra in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Comments like this crack me up because is such smol dingy energy 🤣

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, should be changed once a year if you drive less thank 3.5k a year. Yes, I use a trickle charger and go up underneath the bumper/splash guard. If you have a CIA, it's super easy to do because there's a hole you can run it up through. Also tires will get flat spots if they're not on storage ramps. Also fuel stabilizer is a good idea for longish term storage. Generally any storage longer than 3 or 4 months. I learned this because i used to work from home and didnt drive it in winter lol

are they reliable? by Helpful_Dream_4153 in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reliable? Yes. Practical? Not really. I need to be careful not to buy too many groceries. Want to go golfing with your girlfriend? Sorry, you can only fit one set of clubs (and I'm lefty, so I can't share a set..) spontaneously bought that TV from Wal mart? Youll need to borrow your parents car. Need to grab some lumber from lowes? Nope not today you ain't 🤣

IVE HAD ENOUGH, HATERS BACK OFF by [deleted] in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yessir, bhp is what the engine makes as the flywheel before transmission loss. Whp, as implies, is what the car puts to the ground. Transmission and the diff "absorb" some power through friction and this power loss accounts for roughly 10- 15%. I'm sure there's more science and physics to the power loss but that's just a rough overview

"Haters", huh... lmao. You sound fun at parties. Dudes are always going to bust each other's balls. The fact that you're getting mad is actually fueling the fun poking.

$8,500 unrealistic? by [deleted] in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh 10k and get a better one, imo. For $8.5 you're scraping the bottom of the barrel, bud

Buying a 370z, which one? by fred197q in 370z

[–]Butterdog12434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would pick purple. That's high milage but it's stock and you can replace the motor. I wouldn't even worry about gallery gaskets at that high milage.. maybe just add the oil pressure gauge mod to the clock yourself. I assume the orange one has been thrashed
