Talking Ahh yea, say hello to the new Z!!

I now drive a 04 black automatic touring 350Z and its AWSOME! Yesterday was when i got it, so im still figuring things out on it.

I'll admit my Z is a automatic, im not really into speed but into nice looking cars. so ill need some help keeping my Z looking new. As for mods i gota get my tints in first and i read somewhere about a different antenna you can get? whats that look like?


I made a pretty huge change from my 05 kia sorento to this heh. As soon as i got the Z I came here to join in.Ill get some pics up soon once clean. Im pretty stoked to cruise around on road and web to meet other Z-ers

I think you're talking about the S2000 antenna? It's shorter than the OEM one and supposed to give you the same signal quality.

awsome, thanks guys. Heh sorry about the font

Im having trouble posting the pic. how do i do that exactly?

I washed it today and of course it rained. This was my first time washing it by hand and i went okay. I had alot of spots after it was dry, i guess i didnt rinse well enough?
could anyone give me a step by step direction on what i need to do for just a basic wash and wax

What ever you do don't buy the wash 'n wax stuff (I know that's not what you meant but still don't do it!) Wax As You Dry stuff works good actually, but you gotta do it when the car is still clean and WET from washing it (add more water if needed) then buff in with a microfiber paper towel, they are usually blue and don't leave much fiber behind. They will definitely get rid of the spotting and leave the wax job so much shinier. Go over the car with one once its dry just to make sure everything is all even and smooth. Also invest in some aluminum polish for your wheels and door handles, it will even shine up your tail pipes.

I wouldn't even use that stuff to wax my bicycle. Try something like P21S or Zymol if you want a good wax, or use a good polish like Zaino (zaino is actually a multi-step process and is among the best you can buy)

I use Meguirs Gold Class Soap, it is pH balanced to help prevent water spots. BTW Congrats on the new Z, I have an auto too, and still love it when I it's in sport-tronic mode :-)
