I am going to put headers on real soon. I was considering Performance Nissan, they are about the same price. I even thought about trying it myself, but my free time is a little booked. Thanks.

Yeah Performance Nissan is cool too I had a lot done there too. However Street Image gives you such attention to only you when your appointment time is taking place it gives you an extra mile of confidence. Call Erick and tell him George , the pilot, send you he will give you a good deal. They even inspect and test drive the car after doing anything.

Yeah I Im'd you before when I was curious about getting a helicopter license added to my licenses. I fly as a CFI now, I was flying Airliners though in South America but the economy and security of safety isnt worth risking my skin so Im back down here in Cali.flying good old Duchesses or Cessna's. Ha ha ha.

We should get together with our cars and do a photoshoot with planes and helicopters in the background.

You need the Emanage Ultimate. You can squeeze out all the power with a fine tune.

It was JUST A JOKE, DUDE ...Your Z looks fine! In fact, those dudes at "Pimp My Ride" would be like...what the hell we gonna do...your car is mad fly, yo....LOL. Well...maybe they would install your video game equipment under the hatch or something else crazy like that....LOL!

Seriously though, the only thing I would suggest is a turbo or supercharger, which you can't get for $1500.00...so you could save some $ toward that, maybe??

here are a couple of threads for light reading. The Emanage Ultimate is a piggyback ecu that allows you to adjust timing and air/fuel. An experienced tuner can maximize your mods by tweaking the stock ecu maps. Sharif from Forged Internals is your goto guy for info on this, just give him a call if you are interested. He is the best vendor that I have ever dealt with. Near the end of the 1st post he posts some data about a N/A car that he tuned. Check into it.

20 inch rims? come on man. if u are concerned with performance then why the hell did u get 20" rims? the Z is a performance car not an Escalade. I would swap those big heavy wheels for some lightweight 18" Volk wheels or something before i did anything else

Maybe I have a spare set or light rims! Not mentioned in Mod list since they r only there if I want to go play. But like nicolaycastro said, I want both even if Im not playing around during everyday drives.

And there are some nice 20's for the Z. There are some weird ones but be assured that mines dont look bad. it is what I like.
