Smile 04 Z Touring @ SoCal (Southern California)

Hi guys, i got my Z @ 8/27/2011, I've been looking for a good forum for Zs and a good buddy of mine suggested this one... It was very memorable when I got the car because I've been patiently hunting down a Z for last 5 months and I've been beaten 3 times in a span of 30 seconds to a minute (in the time i entered the dealership someone had already drove off with the car), but finally at my 4th try i got it ( and it came with my favorite color Blue)... I've test driven Mustangs, Evos, and Genesis Coupes (alternative consideration). Yet, I'm happy to say that none has come close in comparison how the Z feels when driving, attention, and it's possible capabilities... Today, I just had my Z maintenance by a Nissan dealership (replaced belts and all fluid) because I wanted to assure my that its owner (me) will definitely take care of it. Before I get into the obsession in modding it. I'm planning on making a check list first... I want to work on the internal things (sway bars, engine, intake, turbo (maybe), and etc..) ... Any brand suggestions that you guys think is good in your experience? I'm open for experienced suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Welcome!
Good lookin Z--GREAT COLOR.
I've got a 03 Touring.Take your time on the mods.Look at pics on the forum.
See what strikes you.Its interesting to me on new owners where their "priorities"
are.Some guys,most important is upgrading the sound system.Some,want body kits.
Some,exhaust/CAI.Alot of guys,gotta have new rims...
Try to get some sort of plan or objective on how you want your Z to turn out.This will save you a lot of time(and$$$) in the long run.
Post some more pics!

Wink You guys are awesome!!!

Thanks Guys! I appreciate for your word of kindness and to those who took the opportunity in viewing this thread. So here's a little incentive from me. Regarding physical appearances, I'm actually planning on putting a nice frontal lip and a diffuser on the back. I want to make it simple, but elegant (plus dont want to attract more attention than I already do since I live in SoCal...) Any suggestion regarding reliable brands for 350z? I'm also curious if there are any meets, I'd like to meet you all in person! : ) Thanks again for your time and I appreciate your warm welcome.
