Talking New to the 350Z family

Hi everyone!!! My name is Ian and I just got home with my brand new redline Z....I'm still in shock This whole break in period is going to be tough. I'm trying my best to keep it under 4k, but it seems that my foot is too heavy
I look forward to checking out this forum. I'm sure it's loaded with some great info!!

Congrats! You're in for a fun time (bordering on obsessional). The break in period will go by before you know it.

Just remember that when you go anywhere, be prepared because while it has been around for a while, you will still get stopped by others just to talk about it.

Have fun and most importantly..BE SAFE!

Well, I've already done my first mod....the Nismo Titanium shifter That thing owns all. The stock shifter felt great and all, but it feels like you've got better control over this one.
Come to think of it, I bought the Z on Wed, put the **** on Thurs, and got the windows tinted on Fri The windows were tinted at D&L Tinting in White Marsh, MD. These guys were pretty quick, only took like a 1/2 hour. I decided to keep it legal with 35% and a strip in the front.....She looks beautiful.
It was killing me with that hurricane passing and not being able to drive the Z. Luckily she was tucked away in my parents garage.

Later

Ian

Devildoc, I am a retired HMC (8404). Spent 13 out of my 20 with the grunts. Had a great time.
