      My name is Matt, I have owned or worked on around 10 300z's in the past 6 years, I have collected a plethora of parts and a vast amount of knowledge for these cars.

This particular car is a customer of mine that has owned this car since 2010. In September of 2011 he was hit by someone who ran a stop sign. (please see picture). Insurance totaled it and it was sent to a copart location in Birmingham al. I purchased at that time to rebuild for myself, come to find out the car was a friend of mine and I remembered when he wrecked it, I just didn't recognize it.(small world). long story short, he wanted his car back so he bought the car from me and I proceeded to rebuild the car for him. Now.... reason for selling this car, when I pulled the engine and evaluated the damage I obviously realized the frame rails were useless, but thankfully there was no notable damage to the engine or turbo piping. I still suggested he have the engine rebuilt or buy a jdm engine, but he opted to save money and put the engine back in as it was. that was at 113,000 miles. now at 122,000. A few weeks ago he brought me the car and asked to put camber arms on the rear to prevent tire wear. I noticed a small lifter tick, not very loud at all. I finished the work and was on the way to deliver back when the ticking became very loud and eventually died, I was able to start it two more times when I go it home but it is rough. It does run but it wont for long...

The pictures explain most of what I did when welding in a new front end but be reassured the frame rails have 5/8 inch thick steel plates welded along both sides of each rail. these are double reinforced with four 1/2 inch steel bolts going through the rails on each side. the metal used for the rails from the factory is only about 1/8 inch thick. I am confident that they are stronger now than before. All air bags and modules have been replaced and will deploy as they should in an accident. This is a requirement for a rebuilt title. This car was carefully inspected by an Alabama state trooper to ensure that it is street legal and safe to drive on the road. Now, with all that said this is a great opportunity to own a great car at a low price and also save on insurance due to the rebuilt title.

 

Things NOT coming with the car under any circumstances.

-silver wheels in the first picture(oem wheels come with any accepted offers, black ones are for sale upon pick up for $250 or buy it now comes with both sets)

***OTHER BUYING OPTION***

transmission is optional.

10 automakers sued over keyless ignitions

Thu, Aug 27 2015

Keyless ignition has rapidly proliferated throughout the auto industry to become a fairly normal feature on new cars. It's supposed to offer the convenience of keeping the fob in your pocket and just pressing a button to drive away. However, ten major automakers are now being sued in US District Court over claims that the system is dangerous, Reuters reports. The suit alleges that people are forgetting to shut off the engine, and the lack of an idle timer is the cause for 13 deaths by carbon monoxide poisoning and multiple injuries. The suit currently includes 28 plaintiffs, according to Reuters, but the lawyers are asking for class-action status to potentially add many more. The case goes after a major swath of the industry, including BMW, Daimler, FCA, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Nissan, Toyota, and Volkswagen, plus their related brands like Acura, Infiniti, Mini, and Lexus. In all, over five million vehicles are affected. The assertion here is that people walk away from their vehicle without shutting it off because they believe the engine shuts off automatically. If parked in a garage, carbon monoxide can build up, leading to poisoning. The lawyers claim automakers know this is a problem and also cite 27 complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration about the issue, according to Reuters. The plaintiffs are asking for an automatic shut-off and damages from the companies. These concerns have come up before, though. Toyota previously faced a lawsuit over a carbon monoxide death after a woman accidentally left her Lexus running. Also earlier this year, GM recalled 64,186 examples of the 2011-2013 Chevrolet Volt because owners weren't shutting them off. The problem resulted in two injuries, and the company released a software update to limit the idling time.

2015 Nissan Murano gets edgier, lighter for NY

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

Nissan's Murano stands as one of the originators of the crossover movement - it was perhaps the first such vehicle to throw out the idea that a CUV had to look like a boxy, cladded-up sport utility vehicle in order to be successful. Now poised to enter its third generation, the midsize Nissan is not only getting a new look and a host of new technologies, it's getting a new home: Canton, MS.
With dramatic new styling presaged by the Resonance Concept at last year's Detroit Auto Show, the new Murano debuting at this week's New York Auto Show includes a toned-down "V-Motion" nose, and the Japanese automaker's trademark boomerang-shaped light fixtures. Aside from the chunky chrome U-shaped grille element up front, the new Murano's most striking design detail is its cantilevered roof with funky "disconnected" D-pillars, a floating look reinforced by a greenhouse edged in brightwork. Overall, it's a much more bold and expressive piece of design than Nissan's recent second-generation Rogue, fitting, as the Murano has always been on the daring end of CUV design.
Boasting a 0.31 coefficient of drag and a ton of sheetmetal surface development, the Murano's new form is available with LED headlamps and features active grille shutters for improved aerodynamics. The company claims visibility has been improved as well - and not just because of its brilliant available Around View Monitor camera system - Nissan says it has "optimized the angles and thickness of the bottom of the A-pillar," along with fiddling with the size and location of the side mirrors.

Next Nissan Titan will get turbocharged diesel V8 from Cummins

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

Toyota might be content to eke out an existence in the fullsize pickup market with its lightly refreshed Tundra, but Nissan looks like it'll be a bit more aggressive with its next-generation Titan. The next Titan will make use of a 5.0-liter, turbodiesel V8 from Cummins, the Japanese company announced at the start of its Nissan 360 industry showcase.
Nissan's commitment to a fullsize pickup isn't really open for debate - it made waves back in April when it lured Fred Diaz, CEO of Chrysler's Ram pickup division, down to its Franklin, Tennessee headquarters. But this news of a monster turbodiesel is big. As of this writing, only Ram is set to offer a diesel engine in a non-heavy-duty pickup. Its 3.0-liter, EcoDiesel V6 will arrive in the Ram 1500 in the not-so-distant future, but that engine will still be a far cry from what's promised with this Cummins mill.
The 5.0-liter V8 is expected to generate well over 500 pound-feet of torque - likely closer to 550, based on the language in the press release - along with over 300 horsepower. Those figures aren't just a shot across the bow of Ford, Chevy, GMC and Ram, they're an opening broadside, meant to demonstrate Nissan's willingness with its next light-duty truck. As Diaz said, "There is no question that the new Titan will turn heads, and with the available Cummins 5.0-liter V8 turbodiesel, we expect to win new fans and attract buyers looking for this unique configuration."
