Default picked up my dream car last week

Hello everyone. Last week I got my dream car that I test Drove in 2003 and now own. 2003 350z Touring 6MT with peanut butter leather, navigation and the bose system(which I think is perfect, def the best stock system I ever owned) 64000 miles. I am currently looking to do just a few mods intake, exhaust, tune, then basically styling. I picked up a nismo intake for 80$ off craigslist just tryna find a nismo filter, which is hard to find. If anyone knows a place I would appreciate it. I love this car though, especially going sideways on exit ramps lol. I had an 06 G35 i took over from my friend before this but it was automatic and I didnt like it So I got my money back and picked this up.. I've had a 90 300zx and a 90 TT Z, but I think this a way better. This car is stock and I get so many compliments on it and oldtimers telling me the stories of their old Z's. Not to mention it's a def chick magnet. I see alot of other 350's and we all just nod to eachother. It's nice to be a part of a great group of owners. Hope to get to know alot of you and get/give help when I can.

Congrats on getting your dream and welcome to the family!
On locating a Nismo filter,you will find that Nismo stuff is actually made
by other companies.Basically,contracted out.There is no Nismo factory lol.
There are Nismo filters available.But look for a AEM filter since AEM makes
the Nismo intake.They are both the same.Another example is the Nismo
S-Tune catback.Its a Fujitsubu.
Drive safely!

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the purchase. I'm pretty sure there is still a group of Z owners that meet up once a week out in long island/queens. Check the north east regional section for the thread. You could meet up with some of the local Z owners.

The 350Z is better then the 300ZX. If that wasn't the case then my weekend car would be a 300ZX and the car I am looking for as a cheap project beater would be a 350Z.

I just went back and read the whole original post: "sideways on exit ramps"

I've never heard of the orange leather being described as peanut butter coloured leather, but actually your bang on the button. Welcome to the forum.

Most cars with enough money will beat another and I can confirm 300ZX's aren't cheap projects but they certainly beat 350's as far as performance but I better stop before a mod censors me for breaking the rules.

LOL, I was going to say the same thing. If you can reach your dreams while living at home and working at McDonald's then it is time for some bigger goals in life.
