Default From a Honda to a Z

hey wussup everybody! I just bought my Z yesterday and I'm a damn newbie to this car. I owned a 97 integ but decided after all the little problems/big problems /worries it gave me, it was time to move on. The Z I got was a 2004 Lemans Sunset base model w/ about 16,500 miles on it. Its under that Certified Pre-Owned 100,000 mile/ 7 year warranty that Nissan gives out. I was wondering what is your opinions on the price. Oh yeah and the car came with an after market clutch and brembo brakes (which i heard only comes with the other models). Thanks a lot!

except the S2000, most Honda Toyota vehicles got poor brakes from the factory, the Z's brakes are excellent stock. Congrat on your Z purchase.

I have an integra and am planning to switch to the Z too. What are your thoughts on the upgrade?

Hit the hazard lights at 120mph and you activate Vtec on the Z.
