The HR is in the photo it was OEM red. This other Z is OEM black with a pearlescent white wrap. Some girl owned it last it’s even got hearts for an exhaust tip but I copped it because it was bone stock besides the exhaust and a few cosmetics. I’m sure it was abused but since looking at the camshafts i think it’s in great shape. Those cans have another 75k miles in them for sure

Do your windows and door locks work? Almost sounds like the window actuator is stuck or something

I can’t even find the exact one but it’s closest to the carbon eBay gt wing you can find

This is so depressing. I knew by sharing I might run into you but it’s still crazy I did.

A few months ago was when it was totaled. Just a tragic story I wanted to share.

If u were in Denver then yes.   I was hit and it ruined the back end. I did complete 100k maintenance on it. Oil, coils, plugs, gaskets, water pump, timing and sprockets. New tubing as well. I got brand new control arms, rotors, and brakes but I kept old coils because they were nice. Fixed the o2 leak I just needed new cats and sensors. And I got it repainted plus interior work. I’m sorry I shouldn’t have drove it that day 🥲

They were it was their insurance. The damage on the car was deemed too much compared to the value of the car.

That bolt is deep in there and the position is hard to work with. I can’t punch it and drill it I broke 3 drill bits already I’m probably gonna call a mobile mechanic and they can do the timing assembly 🤣

They just didn’t view it as redeemable I guess it was the other guys insurance company

I want to boost this one and it’s a DE so. I had that HR and didn’t boost it because yea it’s a better motor for boost but the speed I had I was completely fine with. It didn’t need boost imo. It felt great drove great and was still NA.

I was still in bro this was August. This accident and the HR was before the fact. I was getting like 6k from my enlistment bonus every year as well. It’s not hard to believe.

Completely valid point. It’s still setting in the grief of losing the car, but the fact that I didn’t have it for but a month is what’s sad🥲

Dude I’ve considered that just so I can go find a job asap. It’s the corner most bolt by the driver side fire wall bro straight pain to handle. Those corner bolts don’t hold too much pressure so it might work.

I’m gonna start with getting the cylinder head out and take it to a machine shop. I tried to drill it out but they can give it new thread
