I lasted less then a month
What is it with this fever? The last Z I rebuilt was a 77 280 in 1999. Last month when I bought my 06 Enthusiast (6mt of course) I said I would stick with Nismo parts or stock. Between this site and my newly installed cat back, I am doomed. I already took back my Nismo grounding kit and bought z327's kit. Next on the list --> MD spacer and MREV2 
. How long before FI? It really doesn't help that Forgedperformance is 1.5 hours away.

Man it doesn't matter if Forged Performance is 1.5 hours away, 4 hours away, or 8 hours away...they will suck you in...I would tell you stay away from the light, but the light is soooo much fun 
Good luck with the car.

The 77 280z I bought in 1999 was all original. Paid $2500 for it so as things broke I had no problem replacing with great parts like Tokico springs, lightweight flywheel, etc, etc. The thought of replacing parts off of a $30k one month old car blows my mind.

The 350Z mod bug is powerful . . . and it will bite you hard. I don't even want to estimate the $$$s I've spent already on my new '06 will less than 4K miles!!!

a year and a couple months ago when I bought my Z...I thought I was going to keep it stockish as well...
that didn't happen.
Already gone through an APS TT, and now a built motor and APS Extreme TT. 6 sets of exhausts, 3 sets of wheels, 4 CF hoods, 2 whole sound systems, etc etc...
this site definitely doesn't help!
