Default mod bug

heya

So I've had my Z for over 10 months already, its an 03 Performance, bought it with 15k miles last november, today hit 40k (yea yea, i know, i had to drive alot this year, back and forth from Ohio to MD). So it's been completely stock for all that time, besides the somewhat upgraded audio system (speakers, amp, cdplayer).

Well, after meeting Alberto this morning at school, and seeing the first tricked out Z up close (im a noob, all ive seen were pictures and videos) I went and got my windows tinted. 20% tint, looking great! (thanks Bert!)

Now went to IntensePower website and ordered a JWT Popcharger, and JDM Clear Corners.

So yeah, useless thread, but...WELCOME ME TO THE MOD SCENE!! WHOOHOO! haha...

Wow, I thought I was reading my own personal story. I bought my 03 performance in November too and mine had 16K miles on it, haha. Any ways, I couldn't resist the modding bug after about a month I gave in and the money's been flowing ever since, . Enjoy it, it's fun!

Better and cheaper than most, if not all, full plenum/manifold options on the market... and with the 5/16" spacer you retain the stock strut.
