Default My first Z

Hi everyone! I just bought my first Z! It is an 03 350Z Enthusiast. I have always wanted a Z and now working in a custom fab shop I couldn't help myself any longer. I picked this car up for $11k with 55k on the odometer. It already has an Up-Rev tune, Tanabe fully adjustable suspension, custom intake, plenum spacer, custom exhaust, Tomei shorty headers, and Ray's Wheels. All of this work was done at the shop I current work in. This past weekend we installed Jim Wolf Technologies C8 272 cams. In the future I would like to add a twin turbo setup.

Great start with your car.Planning any mods to the exterior?
Maybe to upgrade the looks of the car?

It made 246 TTW before the cams. Haven't been able to get it on the Dyno since the cam install. Hopefully today. I will keep ya posted. I really like the subtle look of the carbon fiber front lip and solid silver with gold wheels. Really want my money to go under the hood! If I come across a good deal on a wing I like I may pick one up. Maybe the same one but in CF. Other then that I am pretty happy with the way she looks.

Congrats on the purchase! Nice mod list so far. Which Tanabe coilovers is it on? That drop looks just right.
