New ZR owner with questions!
Hi everyone!
I bought a 04 chrome silver 350Z Roadster with 49k miles from a good friend from work a couple months ago. I'm coming from a Ford Expedition...talk about a 180. After I had the front bumber repaired, replaced the scratched up center dash panel (and tray lid), and gave her a full detail, cosmetically she was back to new.
Then I added the following:
Honda S2000 antenna (original was damaged)
pretty dark tint
clear reflectors up front
Optima Yellow Top battery (I have another if anyone is interested)
sound system (the cleanest and best sounding install I've ever done)
Pioneer touchscreen DVD Bluetooth head unit
10" JL sub in a wicked cas enclosure
Alpine componets up front (rear disconneceted)
Rockford Fosgate amp pushing 400 to the sub and 100 to each of the fronts
Made a rookie mistake
and bought a set of 20" rims off of craigslist...the weight was too much and offsets were way off. Just bought a set of 18" silver LMGT4's from another member here and I am anxiously awaiting their arrival this Monday!
Questions...
What would be a good next set of 'things' to do to the car?
Springs- Tien for a little drop..or another for a full inch?
Exahust - for weight/performmance without breaking the bank.
Engine- no clue where to start, but want to avoid the plenum spacers and intakes...I'd like to start modding it for HP, but didn't really want to go turbo or supercharger.
I know its a lot, and yes I am searching the archives! Just wanted to say hi. I appreciate the suggestions!
Already been waved at by other owners and wondering why it took me so long to join the party. Really starting to love the car.
Thanks!
John
