Best Deal/ Best value Thread
This thread is for the Z owners that love their Z's and want nothing but the best for their cars, but still cannot justify spending 3k+ on just wheels or whatever it is. I want to hear about all of the great deals you have found over the course of modifying your Z. This can be for services, accessories, or just fixing something that was broken on your car. The post should include:
1) MSRP or usual price
2) new or used
3) your price
4) where you found the deal (if appropriate/legal )
5) A picture if it is something noticeable (wheels, exhausst, suspencion, sound system, etc..)

Ill start this off. I got Volk GT-7, with brand new Michelin PS2's. They still had the stickers on the tires lol.
Specs:
19x9.5 Front with 255/35/19 +22
19x10.5 Rear with 295/30/19 +15
EDIT:
Wheels were roughly $2500 new (im not absolutely sure)
Tires were $1900 Mounted and balanced
Very Happy with my purchase

I feel like this would just come back to possibly bite you if you were to ever need to sell these items again in the near future..
Looks like you got a great deal on those wheels tho!

Calin, not at all, i do plenty of my own searching nice to see you're another z owner dbag, and for the others, it does not matter, because although you guys are trying to make a huge profit on something you bought, doesnt mean i need to. I do plenty well without having to flip everything i get a goo deal on. And since i just got these, i am very content, and have no intension on selling them. so nice try guys, but id still like to hear about some deals people have gotten.
I cant seem to understand why every single fcking person on here is such a hater. Whether it be the look of some else's car that they will probably never even see, or bashing someone else's thread because they wish they would'v though of it, or in this case, maybe because they think they're too good to shop around for a good deal.
Peace,

no I didn't. i was j/k. that's a hell of a deal & definitely a keeper. looks great on your car btws. don't let the hater's get to you, it's just internet man & anyone can talk bs. just ignore it.
i've only had my Z for 3 months & the only deal so far is labor. my friend is a Nissan Tech and he changed all the fluids & replaced my clutch for $150.00.
parts not included.

if you are very smart and careful ebay can work to your advantage! people still sell stuff on there that is legit and dont realize what they have.
got a set of titek test pipes for $50 shipped to me. from titekusa.com they are $140
was very happy with them. brand new and looked amazing. ended up trading them for a evo-r shift **** due to inspections in germany.

OP, I think it's a great thread to start. I will agree their are similar ones like the top ten cheapest or free mods to your car, but we'll roll with it. I really hope some of the dbaggers on this site don't embarass the 350 in their local towns the way they do on the net. Seriously, why not support the forum and stop flaming. I will agree some people are stupid for not searching, but give it a break. Turn your hate somewhere else. Just help them out and move along young one.
