Default PPW 06 350z Lightly Modified and CLEAN :)

Hey guys as title states this is my 06 base PPW MT with 42k miles. just purchased her about 2 months ago.

Light mods include plenum spacer, sway bars, light drop, intake, HKS Hi power knock off exhaust, Im informed it has a performance clutch but not sure, and a few other things. The top pics are after a good wash, clay, and wax.

Hope you enjoy the pics





Clay bar got pretty dirty

Shiny



And the light drop


Comments and criticism welcome

Spacers are coming soon.

car was never repainted although Im so picky with things like that, that i feel it will come soon lol. The sideskirt color isnt that off, atleast i cant tell in person but the front and rear bumpers are a bit. Going through the PPW thread I've noticed that the bumpers are almost always off.

Clean car.

Get some 30mm spacers and you'd be golden.

It's true, even from factory, bumpers and skirts are always a lil off at some angles for PPW.

30 and 25 is what I'll be going for, definitely would love a flush fit. Time to start looking in the Marketplace haha.

Thanks! And I wish! The other Z in the garage is my friends, he dropped it off at my house to keep an eye on it while he went out of town for a week.

Previous owner thought the wiper looked better horizontal, the bottom pics where when i had first got the car, you can still see the paper tag in the pic. I put it back to its vertical position and in the market for a rear wiper motor since mine doesn't work =/

Thanks for all the compliments guys!

Clean Z, congrats mate.

What future mods are on your list?

I'd probably start with new wheels with slightly more aggressive offsets or get some larger spacers on those stock ones.

Thanks bro.

Future mods I would like to have done before the end of this year include 30 and 25 mm spacers for the stock wheels, a Quaife LSD, an indash touchscreen system (not sure on which one yet), and a new sound system, an OEM looking one, in other words nothing in the trunk, everything just replaced and a sub installed, also perhaps a kinetix's plenum.

By following winter I would like to have repainted the whole car, some beefier wheel/tire combo, would love to be sitting on some FAT tires with a great offset, and maybe a BBK if my budget allows for it, looking at Project Mu's.

The car is very quick with the light mods it already has, I don't feel the need to make it any faster by force inductioning it......yet lol
