Default Hi, new to me 03 Touring 350z

Hello my name is Marco, I recently purchased this 03 Z. It has a rear mount Turbonetics kit and Tein coilovers all rolling around on 20inch HRE wheels. Not sure of any other major mods. I have already sent the car out to have the body damaged repaired. I have a set of 680cc injectors and a after market rail with a FPR waiting for it. I have not decided on a tuning device yet. I have a 30-1050 AEM but I have yet to look into adapting to go on the Z. Next major mod will be piston and rod upgrades. I am not to familiar with these vehicles and I'm sure will run into plenty to post about. I already had to fix a snapped diff. stud. My goal is about 450whp on pump and 600whp on a 116 tune. I'm debating on keeping the rear mount vs a single front or twin kit. The turbo will soon be replaced with a Precision 6262 if I stay rear mount. Thanks

I'm also so the future owner of the wrecked 03 touring z next to the red one. Lol, I just realized it was in the pics. Thanks to all. The car is actually really fun and pretty quick. Its strange you would think 5psi would not feel that great but its enough to make it a little scary with the traction control off. I think I'm going to invest in some Potenza S04s.

Was it wrecked? Your fenders don't line up, also is looks like you have a few Nismo body parts, are they knock off or real?

If you look behind the left front fender the skirt and the bottom of the fender got pushed up some how. As I said though all that is currently getting fixed at the body shop. I am not aware of a knock off nismo kit. This the whole kit/ parts of a 07/08 nismo car. Its even still the cabon black/grey that car came in lol. I'm guess a flood or theft cars remains plundered.
