Default n00b here.. few questions about my car w/pix...

I just picked up this 03 6spd Touring model earlier tonight, and was wondering a few things....

1. Is my car lowered? From looking at pictures of other stock touring models, mine looks lower to me. I looked at the springs, but i couldnt tell, cause they are black and dirty.

2. How the hell do i open the hatch from the inside? lol

3. Is there an available Nismo Short Shifter kit, or is the throw on a Z THAT short stock?

Here are some pix i took of my car... not the greatest, but they'll do for now.










ps. i love this car!

Dude that is a sweet ride... I dont know if it is lowered... My be on some aftermarket springs or something but maybe not, you will have to check in the morning. As far as the Nismo short shifter... There is none!

Congrat's

It doesn't look lowered to me.

There is a button on your key FOB

I don't know if Nismo has one. There are several brands available. But I think you probably have the stock configuration & stock is already kinda short, reletively. That Shift **** looks like Nismo though.

If your looking for some kind of button inside the car to pop the rear hatch. Stop looking, there is'nt one.

looks lowered to me.....look at the front, it has to be

also a few tricks with the z: Spoilers if you will.....

-theres a trunk release button just above the rear license plate
-holding the unlock button on the key fob will make your windows roll down
-holding brakes while gassing cuts the throttle
-rear tires will not go on the fronts becase of a bolt
-jwt popcharger, get one
