Default New owner of A 350Z in Houston Tx

Hey Everyone,

I am new to the nissan world but loving it. High rev, tires turning, and lots of fun is my experience so far. Love the Handling and suspension. Got all kinds of mods planned out but got such a good deal am considering selling it and buying an older 350z.

08 350 z Enthusiast Black on Black 54k miles

You got the sh*t end of the stick with regards to your wheels. The current wheels on your Z are old, cheap wheels from an older, cheaper trim level Z.

Welcome nonetheless!

Welcome to the forum. You don't need to rev the Z hard to fly along, being on the race track of course.

Welcome to the forum & congrats on the new Z.

IMO it's like having a wife:

1) Treat her right and she'll give you years of fun and enjoyment
2) put her "under the knife" to change her, and you'll have a blast, and you'll have plenty of others envying you - as long as you keep the money flowing
3) Abuse her and she'll leave you bruised and broke in a ditch somewhere - and sometimes you'll even still be paying for her well after she's gone



There are plenty of members in the Houston area, so if you're interested in an active area to meet other owners, you're in luck.

Just picked up two items .. megan spec rs coilovers and work varianza t1s (19 x 9.5 19 x 10.5 + 15 all the way around. Going to run 20mm spacers in the front and 25mm spacers in the rear. I have a noobie question .. are these tires ok to use 235 35 19 and 245 45 19 or 245 35 19 ? i know i will have to roll but i am avoiding the pull

Those tires sound too skinny for as wide as those wheels are.

Anyways, nice pick man. Good luck with it. Oh and take some parking lessons.

That really isn't correct. Those are the wheels that came on the 2003-2005 Performance model and the manual transmission Touring models. There isn't anything cheap about them..................

Why are you posting as a new owner if you're just a flipper and are already trying to sell this?
