Default Z Fever

Hello people. Im a fairly new Z owner. Let me take a moment to explain how I became to be a Z lover.

I worked with a kid whose father owned a used car lot. He came to work with a 1984 300zx. Very minty and well maintained. Well to make a very long story short I bought it off him. After two years of owning it and what not I wanted to upgrade and I came across some cash.

Now I am an owner of a 2004 350Z! But it came with some minor used car-ness if you know what I mean, but none the less it ran perfect and what not.

But how ever I would like to know about one major sounding ticking noise I have on cold start up! Not Cold weather but just after it has sat for a couple hours. But if I turn it off and back on it does not make the sound. I am by no means familiar with the VQ engine. So I can explain more if we can talk about it here or if some one can point me in the right direction.

BUUUUT Hello people of MY350Z.com! My name is Cody! AKA Torisuna!

That you would have to research. BUT I have a track and it has 295 35 19 's on it 18" rear 17 front idk front dimensions. So you COULD safely do those and it would still look super mean and wouldn't require spacers or mods to the best of my knowledge at least
