Default New Z owner in Alabama

Hi everyone, I purchased my Z about a month ago. It is a 2007 base model. Previously i drove a 2005 G35 6mt.

Since I purchased the Z I have added the following: Quaife LSD, Stillen sway bars, SPL end-links, XXR wheels, Sparco racing seat, K&N drop in's.

The Z's main purpose is for autocross.

And finally the important part....pictures








And one of the old car...

That's a steal seeing as how it's the HR and has some goodies! I'm jealous.

i paid 14K in 2010 for my 2004 touring with 30K >.<

Yeah, the HR engine is much better than the DE I had in the G35. That and a manual transmission were my only requirements for the new car. I wanted an enthusiast to get the LSD but I ended up putting in a better one so it worked out.

I think I'm done with mods for a while. Time to learn how to drive it. It handles way different than the G35, lighter with more power.

Yes, I wasn't sure if I would like it at first but after seeing it in person I think they look great. Gives it a more dynamic look.

Those are only the race wheels. For a daily driver i will be using the stock ones or my SSR wheels.
