Buy spacers for the rear and itll look HAWT. Oh and get rid of that grill. It looks trashy. Might as well put a caddillac emblem up front to replace the nissan.

Other then that its really nice. Happy modding!

type in "spacers" in the search function. You'll find everything you need to know. Nice looking car. Can i ask what you're paying for it? Any other mods?

The only thing thats clear is the rims, other than that my saleswoman was, well a woman no offense, but I know some women with an extensive knowledge of cars...but she didn't even know the rims were aftermarket until I told her. I will speak to someone tomorrow for all the details. Keep you guys posted!

Eh, I dont mind the grill too much, I've heard of problems where the stock grill would give enough room to allow objects to fly into it, not sure if that was true or not. But hey thats why I'm on these boards to ask you guys that actually have one and most of you treat it as if it were a child, which I promise to do

Pick up sunday morning

As of now 19500, I still think its too much for an 03. I'm currently trying to work it down some more.
Currently 46k Miles
(Going to have someone check belts/clutch)


....only 18 here, and yes I work for my car my parents are not buying it for me...paying for the insurance/car/gas/repairs
its my first time purchasing a car, and I'm on my own, my dad has provided no help on how to go about buying one. woot woot
Anything for the Zed!

If that were true or something to worry about, all the FI guys would be using mad mesh yo. Trust us, take that cheesy grill off.

Ha, Legend Nissan ( Was looking at the Red 350z Touring, 23k ) Won't let me go, I told them about my deal in Florida and they really want to sell to me...they could have had my cash but thats too bad. Ah, the sweetness of two dealerships fighting over me, almost as good as two girls fighting over me...

They keep saying they'll beat the price...doubt it!

19k is awesome. Makes me wish I waited to buy a used Z. As far as the spacers get the eibachs. They come with bolts and spacers which is all you need. Take the wheel off, caliper. replace the stock bolts with new 60mm. slap caliper back on, put spacer on and wheel back on and your done. SIMPLE! Good luck!

There's nothing wrong with the grill... that is, until you replace it with an intercooler
