Hello everyone. I got my 03 Z this week. I love driving it its a blast. The only thing i want to change are the rims, and fix the nav cover. Does anyone know where i could get a new nav door cover?

Oh here it is in all its sexiness.

 

welcome, you'll most likely need to order the nav cover from a dealership.

 

Thanks. Yeah i was afraid of that.

What no one is going to advise me to purchase a turbonator? lol

 

Congrats & welcome to the world of Nissan's!!! You'll loooove the Z!

 

Welcome to the site!

And btw the nav door gives you +20 hp while the turbonator only yields +15

Enjoy your purchase !

 

You might try a local car scrap yard for the nav door.

Alas, lots of crashed Zs out there. (Young, bad drivers; not the Z's fault)

 

Welcome!


Btw, scrap those chrome wheels ASAP. Nissan has even acknowledged that chromed 18" wheels crack.

 

No dubs allowed.

Welcome!

 

Welcome and congratZ on the Le Mans Sunset. Check out the Colours sub-forum half way down the main page. Some very sexy LMS's there too.

 

Thanks all, i will check out the colours sub-forum.

Yeah i def need different rims. So if nissan says they crack do they replace them for free? hehe

yeah right.

Oh i'm so getting the +20hp out of the nav door mod... man thats awesome

 

I don't remember the specifics, but maybe someone around here can pull up the sheet or something.

 

Welcome aboard - nice color!

 

Those are after market chromed wheels. Not OEM nissan.

And, yes, several have cracked. You should replace them... on your dime. At least keep a close eye out for hairline cracks. If you see a crack, replace ASAP.

I was going to chrome my OEM rims (same as yours) until I learned of the problem.

 

Don't let these guys steer you wrong.Get 2 Turbonators and a chip.Forget the nav cover.With the power you will make it will blow the new cover off the hinges.

 

I tried to put snow tires on my old stock 03 (touring style) last week and 3 of 4 are cracked on the inside. Is this usually only a problem with the 18's after they are chromed, or a general problem with our style 18's?

 

I'd say after-chrome effects. Chroming weakens metal. Easiest way to get around it if you haven't already chromed them, sand them down, find a good silver/chrome alternative, paint them, clear coat them. Or just buy rims.

 

I love that color. Congrats and enjoy the car =)

 

welcome
