NISMO Z sat in the garage today. Drove the MO today instead and picked up my floorjack I ordered. Saw a Black NISMO 350Z with black aftermarket wheel flashing his HIDs for almost a 1/4 mile on 675S signaling HWY Patrol speed trap.

I wonder who drives that Z.

Got a new head unit installed. Was a little disappointed in the power after the swap, but it's not bad. Clean sound, just weak compared to the bose unit.

Pioneer FHX-700BT. Just wanted something with bluetooth and played mp3s. Volume goes to 62, and I have to run it at 54 to get a reasonable amount of volume out of it. (That seem right to anyone?)

Got plans to replace the sub woofer first... ~500 bux will get me a 10" under the bar along with a small amp. Then replace the other six speakers later.

Don't usually charge extra for a few aftermarket parts. If they try to they are just scamming you.

Doing Spring paint cleanup. Wash, claybar, yellow wax left on overnight.

I don't plan to polish now, it's pretty clean. Next up is Blackfire Wet Diamond. It's worth the $. 06 Mag Black looks very nice.

Default just scored an stune

its funny how i got this thing...
i noticed a local dealer was selling a 350z roadster with a nismo exhaust on craigslist, so i emailed him and got him to swap my oem exhaust + 500 for the s tune ( dealers love easy money). Its in great condition almost new other than the oxidation on the y pipe.

Im currently gonna clean it up and slap it on the car over the weekend. cant wait to hear it!

Not yet. Trying to do research on sides or may just leave it be and get TS diffuser + spoiler.

^^^ V3 looks really out of place with no supporting aero on the sides. Earlier Nismo's can pull it off but the extended style and everything of the V3 makes it hard.

I mean no offense by this at all but if money is an issue I would look into Shine Auto Project (http://www.shineautoproject.com/products/) for high quality reps with great fitment. I don't believe they make a V3 rep but I've seen people with the Spec-S sides with the V3 front and it worked well.

Another option would be some Roush Mustang side splitters (https://my350z.com/forum/media-share...ded-350-a.html) which also flow well with the V3 and a TS diffuser.

Just some advice.
