Hey all, Ive done a lot of lurking here, always eager to learn more about our cars. I recently became the owner of this nice GSL-SE in November. She looks nice from here, but shes got 217k miles and cracking paint.

Oh yeah, those tires are 9 years old too. Gotta get new ones. I might get some BBS FC wheels with tires which takes care of that!

 

Welcome to forum

 

Welcome to the forum!! The car appears to be nice given the age an mileage. Would love to see more pictures of the car. Do you know any of the car's history?

 

I dont have a crazy amount of history on the car. Just service records and the little bit of seller interaction convos. I bought it from the daughter of the owner, and she felt it wasnt being driven the way it should. It had some work done in around 2016 after sitting in storage from awhile, as well as the engine rebuilt 3000 miles or so ago. As for condition, its pretty darn good for 217k miles. The suspension looks pretty well worn but nothing is rusted through or busted. The paint has that snakeskin cracking texture in some spots, which is unfortunate because the PO put on a very nice purple pearlcoat over the factory black. Similar to Nissans Midnight Purple.

I dont have any crazy plans for it, except maybe an FC front subframe swap, just to modernize and improve drivability, 5 lugs, R/P etc. Cosmetically I dont wanna go crazy either, at most Z style flares and the factory 3 piece spoiler.

The real hardest part has been learning to drive stick, not the best car to learn on Lol.

 

Car looks awesome. You want to see bad paint check mine out
