Hey guys I'm new to the z and site, My names Ian I'm 18 and I promise I'm not some douche teen who's parents bought him a $20,000 350z. I live in kansas, i've been into cars my whole life and my dad recently passed away from Alzheimer's. my mom let me and my brothers spend 10,000 on any car we wanted so I went after my dream car now I got it. It's a 04 ppw no mods yet just some big *** woofers but I plan to do k&n intake, unichip, xxr 527 gunmetal gray, plenum spacer and exhaust

 

Welcome. Please post a few pictures of the new Z.

Looks nice, how many miles on it?

 

Around 64xxx

 

Welcome. Stay away from unichip. Go with uprev for your tuning software.

 

How much gain do those bring you kno?

 

Curious on the best bang for buck performance mod, any suggestions?

 

Please tell me you didn't pay 10k for an 04 64k mileage Z. BTW, sry for your loss, but I'm guessing your dad would have kicked your @$$ for spending 10K on that car.

 

Lightweight 18" wheels (e.g. Track V1's), and a set of OEM Brembo's.

 

Is that bad? It was the best deal i could find around here.

 

Welcome to the forum

You are going to hate those subs.
2 of those monsters behind your head in the small space of the Z...pointless.

keep the stock exhaust on and buy High Flow Catalytic converters instead.
along with an intake and plenum spacer.

But you wont need anymore power. So I wouldnt even bother.

Ill tell you what people told me being a teen...DONT PUSH IT.
unless you like learning the hard way

 

Congrats on getting a Z, take care of it well

 

Welcome and I hope you have many hours driving your Z

 

That's not a bad price for a z with low miles. 10k for that is a steal. There are many in my area from private sellers with 100k going for 8.5k.

His z probably books for 11k. So it's a good deal hands down. You only live once I'm sure his dad would love to drive it, I know my dad has a blast in mine.

 

This coming from a guy who owns a B5 S4?

Enjoy the repairs.

 

I need a second opinion on what rims i should choose. i either want 18" xxr 521 flat gunmetal gray rims or 18" xxr 527 Chromium black rims any suggestions???

 

Welcome and congratulations. Sorry for your loss.

As for for the Z, nice color choice! I think you found a good deal.
