New Z guy!
Hi! I am new to the forum and just wanted to say hello to all you fellow Z owners.
I am now a proud owner of a legendary sports coupe since I just recently paid off my Z.
Its mine!! Its mine!!
Just to give you a little background about myself.
My interest in the Z started when I was young, about 10 years old.
My father always liked Datsun/Nissan cars and used to own a 1980 280ZX, 1982 280ZX and a 1991 300ZX TT and so as I grew up it rubbed off on me.
The memories of those cars are still fresh in my mind. Unfortunately, I wasn't old enough to drive the 1980 and 1982 ZXs, but they were quick and fun to ride. I did get to drive the 1991 TT and boy was that an awesome car.
I miss the acceleration, handling and performance. It was like a rocket when the TTs kicked in. I wish he had never gotten rid of it since I wanted it so bad. Unfortunately, I was in college and had no job so I know I wouldn't have had the money to keep it up.
But now that I'm working and making my own money, I hoped that it would come back and so it did.
Back in 2002, I heard that it was and so I knew it was my turn to own one.
Well, its mine now and now its time for adding a few mods.
The first thing I would like to is upgrade its performance.
What should I do first? Decisions decisions.

Thats pretty cool. I'm a break in my family's tradition. My mom, dad, and brother are all domestic muscle. I'm the oddball Import guy. 
Although, my dad did own a Conquest Tsi (read - Starion) for a couple of years...
