Picked up a 2005 350z about two months ago.. It had some small body damage but i got that fixed.. It was also COMPLETELY murdered out which i hated! I got the car basically stock except: stage 3 clutch, lightened fly wheel, intake, exhaust, navigation, and supposetly "chipped".
I got:
stance gr+ coilovers
work vs-xx 18x9.5, 18.11
spc camber arms
testpipes
front lip

By the way i dd it, drift it, autox, drag it, etc....

Looks awesome, did you also install skirts or just a front lip? I am looking to do the same on my Z.

Im still debating on the spoiler. I may keep it because not to to many people have them.. But then again theres a reason for that. I will post more pictures tonight from a different angle to see how the spoiler looks now that its low.

here is a rolling shot. I think im gonna keep the spoiler. Not a 100% yet.


But my future plans are:
kinetix v+ plenum(getting in a week)
possibly a tune for now.
Hopefully im gonna get the turbonetics single turbo kit and replace the turbo with a 6262 or gt35r. That is gonna be a while.. Because i might just get another s14 for a project and just have it for a play car. As of now this is my play car. haha. I do everything in it. From driving it everyday, to autox, drift, and drag. Im gonna make my own plate to go underneath the whole car because it scrapes way too much.. But im not raising the car at all. Its just what i like. i have a messed up front bumper that i throw on for autox and drift events. So i still try to keep her pretty

Ew. Take the V1 wing off.
That wing just doesn't cut it for me.
V2 > Everything.

After seeing the rear well now I would most definitely take off the wing...the car in that sexy stance would look so much better...
