Default New Z has arrived

Hey all, I have been reading on this forum for a while now and figured it was time for a first post. Got my new Z a couple weeks ago and I absolutely love it. It is an 06 enthusiast with about 19000 miles on it. True dual exhaust, nismo short shifter and a few exterior modifications. Figured pics are a must so here ya go. Let me know what I should do next

Looks good! I can't tell from the pictures what wheels those are, are they Volk GT-S in black and chrome/polished lip?

And for future mods, I personally, would get rid of the mesh grill in the front, get tint, and maybe some coilovers to lower it a bit and improve handling. Sway bars also? Congrats on the new buy.

Welcome to the forum, nice car, nice mileage. That grill mesh, probably isn't bad from the aspect of it keeps bugs off the radiator and stones out of the engine bay.

Volks indeed. The lip though is actually powdercoated to match the paint. Mods are gonna have to wait a little seeing as how I am broke since I paid cash for the car. But suspension and sway bars are tops on the list

It was on ebay for quite some time and the auction was won by guys who couldn't pay three different times. So i finally just called the guy and asked if I could come drive it and talked him down on the price a tad bit. Honestly I cannot remember what the exhaust is off the top of my head. Sounds great though ha.

You should come by and visit us here in Wilmington.
I was actually planning on being in the area this weekend, hoping to have some time to stop by and at least look around the shop. Not a whole bunch of money to put into parts at the moment, but hopefully I'll be able to get a few parts from you guys soon. Love the work you do, great to see a good performance shop in NC.

Clean ride. Especially like the one-piece front bumper.
