freind of mine has a 53plate import 350z in pearl white, at 18k he had to have the clutch replaced. then after a further 2k i had to pull the engine out after no5 went dry and shafted the entire motor. local nissan garage wanted 13k to put an engine in. 9k for engine and 4k in labour. reckoned it was 2 guys and 4 days of work. tryed to get nissan uk to contribute as it's surpossed to be there flag ship but after them first of all giving a green light they changed there minds over night and denied all knowledge of the conversation. anyway dropped a replacement motor in from japan and 6 hours after we started she was running.

despite all the probs the car it's self is awesome, the complete package, no where near as quick as teh escos but still a wonderfull car to drive.
