Essential first mods?
#41
Gothchick, Ok lets go with that idea. Please go to search and then type in FI and see what you get. Let me tell you 0. Thats right 0. If you don't know what it is you can't very well do a search. The problem with you and people like you is that you have this "I'm better then you complex" because you have been around longer. That is your standard answer Do a search and thats been asked so many times. Just because you know the answer doesn't mean its been asked so many times. How about this, if you know the answer but are to lazy to answer it don't type anything? That would be a start and maybe people wouldn't look for other sites to get their answers. Maybe some here are just to young.

We Interrupt This Thread for a reality break!
Wow this thread really has gone a bit off topic.
I have to agree though that just because someone asks what appears to be a stupid question to others that doesn't mean they are an idiot. "What is FI?" is a valid question if you are new to modding or "engine speak" and yes it does show "0" results when you search for it.
Anyway back to the thread .....
I do appreciate all the responses and am filing the info away in my electronic brain (my blackberry). Thanks and please let's try and keep this on topic. It is definitely a thread that other new / future / interested Z owners might find value in.

Trust me, i'll post some pics on sat, but i think without the "350Z" on the back of the car, it just looks a lot cleaner. I still have the Nissan burger and the Z on the sides. And i love the door handles so im not taking those off. My birthday is next month so im gonna treat myself again (i treated myself last month too [bought my Z]).

Without knowing a budget it is hard to suggest mods. I'll offer up my order though in the 3 months I have had my car.
- V1 w/ InvisiCord (from previous firebird)
- 20% tint
- JDM Short Antenna
- Hotchkis sway
- 19" Bronze D5R Speed Star wheels
- JWT Popcharger
- Shaved rear wiper
- Burnt orange boot, arm rests, center console

Hitlines nice list of mods and you are right I neglected to state a budget.
Basically I can make my budget what I need to make it in order to get the car I want. Not trying to say I am loaded but I plan on putting money into this car sooner or later so.. suggest away. Thanks!

Before & after Dynos for the Interfooler:
Edit: For idiots like lawnmowerman who may not know what a dyno is either... A D-y-n-o is a machine we put our car on to measure it's output to the wheels in the form of H-o-r-s-e-p-o-w-e-r and T-o-r-q-u-e. Lol!

NZP. I am sorry. So you say that do to the fact that I have only 20 post I can treated as a second class citizen? That when I ask a question that gives people the right to make a joke out of it? Well my friend I stated that if you don't have any positive remarks to add then just pass it by. The energy used to try to come up with a funny remark could be used for a positive reply. There is enough information to read to spends weeks reading it without having to filter out all the nonsense remarks. I don't expect a small brain person like yourself to understand that. Moderator please review this thread and if you think that I have been unreasonable put me in my place or ban me. If not then please post a remark standing up for your forum and advise some of these idiots that these forums are meant to be informative not a comedy club.

I guess your next post will attack my grammar (Me? NEVER!). Hopefully while your(you're) wasting your time doing that(comma) a real reader will have his question answered by a knowlegable(knowledgeable) sincere reader. Everyone got my meaning and I did not have to spend more time out of my life to to explain that your(you're) are an idiot and added nothing to my post.
(MarkY) that you for your reply
(MarkY) that you for your reply
Calm down Paul Walker. FI means FORCED INDUCTION. Your clutch is sticky because it's broken. Go get it fixed.

wow this thread has gone to hell...
anyways back on topic. If you want to do a performance mod, the first thing you should do is exhaust and high flow cats(takes a bit of modding to fit onto an 07 cause the flanges dont match up, but its not that hard). Should add about 18whp. For an 07, its pretty much the only thing you can do, when it comes to performance mods. Nothing else is out yet, but in a couple months I'm sure there will be a few more things out.
