Congrats on the purchase, but get some new wheels stat! Even if they are just stockers...the offsets on those bad boys look suitable for an accord

Welcome Brickyard. CongratZ. Looks like you might have your work cut out for you cleaning up the engine bay. An area lots of folks neglect. How many miles has your Z done???

Yes I do have my work cut out on this one... the wheels your right have the offset for an accord lol the back fender gap (width wise) is not easy on the eyes and the engine bay is definately dirty! However, I do love the brickyard color and find it even still growing more and more on me each day ... the Z has 45k miles on it by the way. One quick question for those viewing, do any of you use radar detectors? if so where the F do you plug them in? the only plug i can find is in the rear directly between both front seats. Am I just trippin or is that the only cig lighter outlet?

Thanks guys.

The rims will def. be the first to go however I am already experiencing the infamous window motor issue so after I install a new one from AutoZone and give the Z some TLC my first focus will be rims and tires and mmm suspension shortly there after.

Welcome and congrats on the brickyard find.

I think the early models did only have that one outlet. If there is another it would be on the lower left of the passenger dash.

When you have questions you can't figure out, go to the appropriate sub-forum as a lot don't cruise the new owner sub-forum. Good luck and have fun.

I don't know what you have planned for wheels or your budget, but you might check out the stock '06-'08 wheels. They are pretty nice and many switch them for after-market sizes so you could pick some up rather inexpensively....if you like them.

The more I look at it, the more I want it. That is the best color Z I have ever seen.
