I almost forgot how hot a stock 350Z can be.

Hehe, thanks!

So far I love almost every little thing about it... The lights, the seats, the tachometer, the Z emblems (including the little one on the door transfer vent - the one that's hidden when the door's closed), the distinctive exhaust note, which I've -always- loved, the way it stays perfectly flat around corners, lets me know about every little detail of the road surface.... I love it!

Things I don't like, would be that it seems sort of chatty at idle, and moreso at low RPM in 1st and 2nd (still looking to see if this is normal or something to worry about), and the clutch is a bit to get used to.... Then again, I haven't driven stick for over a year.

And what I -really- hate, is having to keep it below 4,000 RPM


I'm planning to keep her stock for a long time (aside from the nismo catback, and possibly a sound system upgrade).

Some day when it's closer to paid for, I'll think about modding more... But coming from driving a Grand Am for the past year, the Z in it's stock form is -plenty- to keep me happy for a good long while.

i'm pretty sure that car won't be stock for long. after you go to a big meet like the Huntington Beach meet on June 28th and see 200 stock and modded 350z's and G35's. it will make you go insane and buy parts. trust me lol
