Eric's 05 Frontier... And Auto X Beater

[F-This]

That's right... 265 hp, 284 ft lbs of torque, six speed and rear wheel drive...everything I wanted :lol: (Plus ten inches of ground clearance :D )
They installed the steering wheel upside down

obviously the frontier will be the race vehicle..........z is good for running errands and crap. :P love the new frontier, now it needs wheels, exhaust, intake. and bags, with lots of switches.

[F-This]

Dammit! I left my neons on the Spec :x

[wgnths]

i would go back, that would make the truck right there!

Eric, what are you doing this weekend? Home depot is having a sale on maneur. Buy 1 bag of pig shit and get 100 bags free. Bring the Z buy and help me haul all the shit lol

[wgnths]

can i borrow the z to bring my dirtbike to get fixed?

[F-This]

Yeah, no problem. Should fit with a little pushing here and there. Don't wanna f up the bed in the Frontier :) The pig shit will ride nicely in the passenger seat of the Z!

[wgnths]

we're gonna pimp your ride.

[speedblind]

Looks good! Trucks w/ stick shifts are awesome - had a Ranger and a base F150 both with MT. Nice Z too

[F-This]

we're gonna pimp your ride.

I want a washing machine and a water fall!

[yepee]

Nice rides! I really want a 05 Frontier too, so give me an opinon or 2...
do you like? does it have gonades? everything I've read says their good but what is the owners thoughts?

[LaidbackRacr]

Comon guys bashing the Z...why because it produces more hp that WRX and its an NA...Don't hate..., Appreciate!

[wgnths]

no, we're just going along with the title of the thread "autox beater" :) all z's are hot. and the truck will be too with some dubs.

So far.. All 600 miles I have on it, I love it. I have never been a truck guy, and suffered through a few days of horrible buyers remourse/fear. However, I like it more and more every day. It just seemed crazy to get another stupid car when the household already has a 350Z, so I bit the bullet.

It's freaking fast (relatively speaking)! I mean, for a 5000 pound rig, it gets up and moves. Most sites are reporting mid 7 second 0-60 and <17 second quarter miles, which I completely agree with. And oooooohhhhh the torque :drool: I'm afraid my rear tires won't last a year :lol: I can smoke the tires easy (even with the limited slip) and get a good bark into third :twisted:

I just want some aftermarket, and soon! :)

-Edit- And I got 22 mpg this week :D

22 mpg's... not bad, after I put on the CAI & catback on the spec I can get 30 mpg's in town (if I keep my foot out of it) I am not sure where your working, but you know if you need something..... :wink:

[F-This]

I am not sure where your working, but you know if you need something..... :wink:

Out of the car business :wink: Ummmm... Let's see, what would you have for me? :D Oh, I do need keyless entry (since it doesn't come with the power package :roll: ) Can I just get the fobs and program it myself?

[yepee]

your out of the car business! you lucky bastage! I dream of the day it will be all over, but by that time I'll be too old to give a flock! (I am almost there now :cry: )I dont believe It would be cost effective to add the factory system. You would be better off with an aftermarket system, the new remotes are programed with the consult, and the service dept charges big $$ for it, you know the friggin game...

[wgnths]

f the man!

[phoenixZ33]

I want a tow package for my Z!

[kev]

I want a tow package for my Z!
