I have found a few 04 STI's but am kind of weary on buying that year for lack of a radio and I guess they used a different differential? Also, concerned with early model 350z's and oil consumption. Anyway any clarification on that would be great too.
Thanks for voting.
Only the 05-06 REV-UP 350Z had oil consumption issues and it was only on certain cars too. The 07 HR no longer has that issue and no 03-05 non-revup engine had that issue. The 05 Anniversary model had the REV-UP, and the 06 standard 6mt cars had it.
But IMHO, the 350z is faster than the STI stock for stock, but the for mods, the STI takes the cake.
