Hello from North Carolina, I am Mat i am a Senior in High school and I am driving an 04 RED 350z. I am getting it painted and new rims for a graduation present, I would like to find some mentors that I can talk to one on one in order to learn more about my car and ways to improve it. Any help Is welcomed and needed, thanks in advance!

 

Welcome!
Post a pic.
What model is your Z?
Getting it painted,needs a paint job?
What wheels are you planning to buy?

 

welcome and congrats on the new Z

 

It kind of seems to me that the first two bolt ons everybody recommends are:
a Jim Wolf Tech (JWT) Pop Charger Intake and a Plenum Spacer from AAM or Motordyne.

After that it kind of depends on what youy want to focus on. I got my Z right out of High School (am in my Jr. Year of College now) and I have to use it as a daily driver. Since I'm in it so much I've been focusing on my sound system as opposed to engine performance. After thats done I'm going to do handling mods like coilovers and sway bars.

One thing I would recommend is an aluminum undershroud from zSpeed. It seemed lame spending so much money for something I never see and doesn't add much performance, but it makes oil changes a breeze and I'm confident it won't rip off like the plastic one did.

 

Welcome to the forum. You're in the right place, heaps of info. Reading time.

 

Congrats on the Z! So lucky to have Z in high school If you need help with your choice of wheels or other mods, feel free to pm or call me!
