With the amount of aftermarket support and straight up good looks, it’s hard to go wrong. So you want a Nissan 370z? Alex is here to answer all of your questions.

0.03 -> I'm gonna walk in I'm going to talk
1.89 -> about the fact that we got a brand new
4.049 -> shirt I'm going to talk about a new
5.64 -> shirt and the shirt is this month's
8.04 -> giveaway shirt and this month it's pink
10.62 -> it's awesome it matches my shoes your
14.46 -> socks if you see them I mean they kind
16.35 -> of do they kind of don't I got some fun
18.6 -> socks okay don't judge the socks look at
20.34 -> the back oh yeah clutch and Fi
24.75 -> new giveaway T this month and it's pink
27.06 -> because remember that one shirt that you
29.13 -> bought when you were like 12 years old
30.39 -> at Kohl's that was like real guys wear
32.91 -> pink you know we just thought we would
34.59 -> we'd bring that back in a less intrusive
36.989 -> way than an $8 t-shirt I'm Allison
39.12 -> fitment industries don't forget to
40.44 -> subscribe we will say your suspension
41.94 -> today we're talking about so you want a
44.75 -> 370z
49.08 -> [Music]
56.84 -> [Applause]
59.41 -> so you want a Nissan 370z so maybe you
63.89 -> wanted a drift missile or maybe you're
66.83 -> just saving up for a GTR either way a
69.14 -> 370z is probably a good choice for a lot
72.409 -> of different reasons because it's a 370z
75.83 -> we're talking about the good old wide
77.57 -> body of Nissan that doesn't have the
79.19 -> name one of my favorite movies from 1998
81.41 -> I mean the Nissan 370z was like what the
84.41 -> 350z should have been right out of the
87.38 -> gate but like you know sometimes it
89.27 -> takes an alley comeback and you just
90.8 -> come back a little bit harder and that's
91.94 -> the 370z so we're just gonna get into
94.009 -> some of the history before we kind of
96.41 -> delve into if you should actually Omo so
98.21 -> the 370z is the older brother to Nissan
100.789 -> 350z which is basically not as cool a
104.509 -> little bit slower a little bit more soft
106.789 -> of a sibling and I know it's mean but if
109.759 -> you just look at 370z it's so it's so
112.369 -> like angry like rawr XD it's so like
115.61 -> wide it's so like thick I mean it's the
118.28 -> 6th generation of Nissan Z's which
120.2 -> actually started out with 240 Z and 69
122.209 -> which were pretty neat and the 370z made
124.369 -> its good ol appearance in 2008 which was
126.59 -> a pretty decent year I mean Britney
128.66 -> Spears is going nuts there's high school
129.89 -> musical Obama became president I mean it
132.08 -> was it was a little bit of a weird time
133.04 -> in the grand scheme of things I was
134.42 -> going on but I mean for the most part if
136.34 -> you didn't know what a home 2008 wasn't
138.29 -> actually half that when you take a look
139.64 -> at 370 Z's it's a very short and thick
142.459 -> car and it pushes around 350 ponies and
144.739 -> it only has two seats it seems like it's
147.17 -> a bit of a confused teenager though of a
148.819 -> car because it doesn't seem to know what
150.5 -> it wants its grille Drive and does drift
153.65 -> avoid things but at the same time it
155.42 -> kind of just seems like it wants to be
156.739 -> your typical chill roadster not only
158.989 -> that but the v6 VQ is a bit of an
161.18 -> oddball of like a motor powerplant and
163.4 -> even though it doesn't make some pretty
165.17 -> sweet noise it's not everybody's first
167.66 -> choice to modify if you're looking for a
169.79 -> drift car you've probably come to the
171.739 -> right place
172.64 -> ish the 370z is a short wheelbase
175.61 -> rear-wheel drive car that has a ton of
177.53 -> aftermarket potential so it does fit in
179.75 -> right at home in the drift community
181.55 -> even without modifying the car it can be
183.56 -> pulled right off the lot and you can
184.909 -> find an abandoned
185.65 -> parking lot do all sorts of crazy with
187.18 -> your car to run into you know some sort
189.129 -> of light pole or curb your wheels
191.01 -> because that happens every time and
193.48 -> that's fine but there's a reason that
195.22 -> the drift scene is so littered with 350
197.11 -> and 370 sees and that's because they are
199.06 -> just a real drive coupe car now they are
201.069 -> heavier than most two-door coupes but
203.829 -> that really is negated by the style
205.84 -> quality and experience that the 370z
207.879 -> provides to a lot of enthusiasts and in
209.89 -> the drifting community if you can get it
211.45 -> sideways with just a little bit of extra
213.159 -> power and still keep some of the looks
214.54 -> that a lot of people are going to enjoy
215.739 -> it plus truth be told not everybody
219.34 -> likes to drift to 40s X's I know so what
222.76 -> can you do with a 370z
224.56 -> and what should you address right away
226.03 -> if you decide to buy one well I mean
228.79 -> typically 370z owners really have a
231.099 -> tendency to go one of two ways they
234.489 -> either like do a couple bolt ons maybe
237.609 -> they do a supercharged leg a little bit
239.019 -> moderately tuned and all that sort of
240.459 -> stuff or they go straight car shows seen
243.129 -> with the three-piece wheels the
244.75 -> wide-body stuff the angry Aero the big
247.54 -> letters everybody living in peace like
249.94 -> all of the angry stuff the halo
251.829 -> headlights the taillights the spoiler
253.72 -> the side skirts the arrow the diffusers
255.73 -> the splitters the custom exhaust that's
259.75 -> all blue burnt tipped and then the
261.909 -> license plate has to say something that
263.919 -> includes the word Z in it like it has to
266.199 -> have that you obviously gonna see like
268.389 -> the Z Society sticker
269.919 -> you've got to see like all of that and
272.74 -> then after all of it the Instagram is
274.87 -> made
275.349 -> Klout is earned and life is good let's
279.22 -> go back to the first one first so one of
281.349 -> the first things people do with 370 Z's
283 -> is they kind of like just they give us
284.889 -> some new lungs you know it's the exhaust
286.63 -> that's the intake etc and you know it's
289.12 -> good but as long as you know that the
290.919 -> bigger isn't always better especially
292.419 -> with the 370z platform the clutch on
294.49 -> these cars typically only handles about
296.26 -> a 40 percent increase over OEM power so
298.659 -> if you're really looking to pump those
299.65 -> numbers up you're probably gonna want to
300.909 -> go with a new clutch as far as
302.8 -> aesthetics go with the 370z you can
304.3 -> pretty much take any route you want
306.13 -> because these cars come off the lot with
308.199 -> like a huge
309.81 -> just beautiful just mmm like that just
318.99 -> it looks good you know it just has a
320.97 -> good but mmm it just looks good man you
323.73 -> can put like a bowl of ramen on the hips
325.38 -> of that car it's insane the other way
327.84 -> people go with the 370z is full car show
330.48 -> scene mode and the reason that people do
332.85 -> that is because the body aligns with
335.84 -> everything that makes the car seem so
337.95 -> popular right now one thing to note is
339.48 -> that these cars can fit huge wheels on
341.94 -> them with a stock fender setup I mean
344.64 -> it's insane the amount of wheel you can
346.56 -> fit underneath these cars and if you end
348.45 -> up going with a wide body you're over
349.89 -> fun or something like that it gets even
351.69 -> more insane with how wide of a setup you
353.73 -> can fit now with the wide rear fenders a
356.13 -> lot of people love the fact that you can
357.6 -> go with an aggressive Aero setup on the
359.22 -> car you can make it look the full track
360.96 -> prep battle arrows type thing and it
363.6 -> looks really insanely good I mean 370
367.95 -> Z's have the set up for probably some of
369.93 -> the most perfect overall aesthetics that
372.87 -> you can have on any aftermarket car and
375.36 -> that's why people really really enjoy
376.86 -> these cars is because the aftermarket
378.72 -> potential on these things in terms of
380.4 -> just like the looks and the car scene is
382.85 -> huge it's huge it's absolutely massive I
387.24 -> mean everything about the Nissan like
389.13 -> community is big but for this stuff it's
391.83 -> even bigger it's absolutely incredible
393.99 -> the amount you can buy for a 370z you
397.38 -> thought car ID had quite a few options
399.27 -> you should see what happens when you
400.77 -> head out and check out wheels tires
401.94 -> suspension feminine issues that economy
403.47 -> is entering the 370z because that's just
405.45 -> no net 370 Z's are priced all over the
408.419 -> map and you can expect to find one
410.19 -> depending on the age and condition
411.21 -> anywhere from like 12 K it's almost
412.979 -> $30,000 for a new one the knees moans
415.68 -> are probably the ones that you're gonna
416.91 -> want to keep an eye out for the most if
418.32 -> you're looking to actually keep the
419.7 -> dollar in your pocket after you buy the
421.8 -> car because those are the ones that hold
423.21 -> their value the best and in terms of
424.89 -> modifying them there's actually not a
426.36 -> whole lot you have to do if you don't
427.979 -> want to they have a very clean
429.09 -> minimalistic approach that looks really
431.34 -> good on them too if you're not a big fan
432.99 -> of the super big super deep wide sort of
435.78 -> angry setup however don't forget to keep
438.21 -> your eyes peeled just
440.59 -> any other car 370 disease do have a few
444 -> issues maybe one of the most common is
447.61 -> how bad the throttle response actually
449.38 -> is and how much you have to move the
450.58 -> pedal to get anything out of the car
452.23 -> like you step down and it takes about a
454.57 -> year and a half to actually get the car
456.22 -> to get its own acting gear which is a
458.35 -> little bit of a weird feeling it takes a
459.639 -> little bit to get used to the interior
462.04 -> is also a pretty common complaint they
464.2 -> have these like gauge pod looking things
466.48 -> and one is you know once a clock you
469.84 -> know which is I mean it's cool it's cool
473.229 -> to have a gauge set up in a car I just
475.6 -> don't know if it would be a clock it's
477.07 -> like maybe it was meant to make it look
479.169 -> grey scary but you should probably just
481.27 -> put a Y band and just call it good the
483.04 -> interior ended up being both a cool
484.6 -> design but it has a lot of like dated
486.46 -> plastic bits and electronics and it is a
489.07 -> little bit weird and if you're looking
490.66 -> to purchase on older 370z they also did
492.669 -> come with a couple electrical and
494.02 -> steering issues to keep that whole train
496.66 -> running although they do have a ton of
498.34 -> aftermarket potential I'm not sure how
500.29 -> many guys have seen the engine bays in
502.06 -> these cars but they don't exactly have
504.55 -> any room they took a cue from BMW and
507.7 -> just removed the fun out of actually
509.5 -> working on your car at all
511.18 -> so having fun installing the mods is
513.159 -> pretty much non-existent which is why
514.78 -> you actually see people just cut the
516.13 -> hood because that's sometimes easier to
517.99 -> deal with any sort of things instead of
519.789 -> just modifying it appropriately 370z s
522.219 -> also have a little bit of
523.69 -> competitiveness with the g35 and g37
526.63 -> which has some similarities but I feel
529.51 -> like the potential on the 370z is a
531.58 -> little bit larger and therefore people
533.56 -> enjoy the 370z just a little bit more so
535.839 -> I don't know if we'll end up seeing the
537.339 -> car actually become a JDM legend like
539.26 -> you know the 240z or the rx-7 or the
542.2 -> Supra or anything like that but you
544.33 -> would probably be pretty hard pressed to
546.19 -> say that once Nissan 370z flatline in
548.56 -> terms of depreciation that they'll
549.85 -> actually stay there you'll likely see
551.8 -> the NEEMO prices go up over a certain
553.54 -> period of time and for good reason
555.61 -> they're actually pretty fun car that is
557.29 -> a spirited driver fun touring car and
559.54 -> does have quite a bit of potential as
561.339 -> long as you can get past some of the
562.63 -> things that make it a little bit dated
564.25 -> and a little bit slow so if you guys own
566.62 -> a 370z drop a comment below
568 -> or just let us know what you want to see
569.38 -> us talk about next I'm Alan from fitment
