Greetings everyone!

I am Mann from Brunei (it's a very small country, smaller than a dot on the world map, located on the northcoast of Borneo Island). I purchased my first car about a week ago (Nissan Fairlady Z Enthusiast 2005). It had two owners before me but I got it off a dealer. It was very well taken care of. Everything was stock except the radio and the rims (stock rims thrown in for free during purchase).

Initially I was paranoid about purchasing a sports car as I never owned one and I wasn't a car guy although I am surrounded by friends who are obsessed about sports cars and owned them. A good friend of mine kept injecting me with information, suggestion and advice but my boring brain couldn't absorb half of the things he said. One thing's for sure, I had always been itching to get my hands on the Fairlady and I was sure I was going to get it one day! The only way to rid myself of the paranoia was to dive into the pool instead of wasting time wondering how cold the water could be. Now that I got the car, all those information and suggestion finally made sense (with the help of reliable/unreliable sources from the internet). I am now working my way up to improving and adding more knowledge and learn the history about the car. I love it so much as if it's my second wife. I'm not even married yet. The girlfriend also loves it, so that's a plus.

Here's a pic of the car. The colour is dark Radiant Ebony. The feeling of finally owning your dream car is amazing!

Nope... my plan right now (which may change) is to drive it as it is until the end of the year but I will do something with the wheel size and thickness as soon as I can.

Your fuel bill would be a dream in comparison to most countries, makes owning a sports car even more fun. Enjoy!

Congrats on the Z! May i recommend spacers to push out those wheels a bit? It'll look heeps better!

I will do something about the wheels soon, it's the one little thing that's pestering me and I will stay in denial about it until I finally fill the 'gap'.

All the best to you with the lottery! This reminds me of a damn lucky guy over here who won a lottery worth $75 million. He quit his job, focused on his bodybuilding life and hired more than ten bodyguards (consisting of his bodybuilder friends) whom each gets his own 350z, all thanks to him.

This is true, though I wish we had more highways (we refer to a long stretch of road as highways). The longest highway is a stretch on the coastal area, from one end of the country to the other and it only takes averagely 1.5 hour to go from Point A to Point B with a Toyota Soluna.
