Default New Z33 Today Yay!

I made an account a few years back but mainly to look around, but today i got me a 350z. This will make my 4th nissan to own and im pretty excited right now about my purchase and just having another car to drive since ive been dailying my titan and the gas prices are a killer right now haha.

So yeah i picked up a 06 redline base model with 47,000 miles. My S14 was mainly used for drifting and some street driving and i plan on making the Z with more street driving and some drifting.

I've been into drifting for about 10 years now, I used to own a S13 hatch then my beloved kouki S14 which just recently I've sadly had to part out. All cars have been red lol, it kinda just happens that way, I guess im making an evolution from each car to the next and carrying on the spirit.

Well here are some pics of the new ride and my old S14, hopefully i can make a build thread pretty soon with some cool stuff so look out for that. I've already got started today with a little interior work.

Thanks, yeah parting out the s14 was one of those tough life choices, i had it all apart after a small accident to replace and upgrade some things and instead of putting more money into it to get it back right i needed to get out of debt and get everything straight. I'm good now and so the Z was purchased, i basically wanted a newer car that would be easy to make nice and still have some fun.

i might change ****, that was my old one i just don't like the shortness of stock shifter it makes it so much smoother and easier when its taller.

Sick 14, I'm sure you will build the Z to that level.
