Talking Just recently picked up my Z in SoCal

Hey guys!
I have always wanted to own a two seater car but never really wanted to having my son with my a lot. He is finally 5 and is big enough to be in a booster, and felt it was about that time i spoiled my self a bit! I picked up a 2007 350z nismo #444 =) It took a while to find the right car! So far I am very happy with it! I have noticed a few little things wrong here and there but for the most part its nothing I cant fix! First thing would be the speed!!! I am not going to mod the engine since I have 3 years eng/tran coverage and kind of what to leave it as is for the rarity of the car. It is on coils with some wheels and a fairly nice apr carbon fiber spoiler. I had a lot of doubts on the wing, but honestly like it much more then the regular spoiler. I had stayed away from the import scene for a while since I am also a German lover. I own a Twin turbo S4 which is also partially the reason I feel the stock Z's lack in power. Kind of hard to compare a car iv invested over 15k in to a stock car of course. My S4 has a stage 4 clutch with a 11 pound alwf which is also something i'm not use to! I'm use to my rpms shooting up and falling down instantaneously almost lol. My S4 is at 400hp450tq and prob will just drive that car when it comes tracking/racing! One thing I ****ing hate is how much fcking hondas want to race me!!!! I honestly never bothered racing much imports in my Audi but never had much attention since it takes someone that knows all cars to know it, or hear the sound of my loud as turbos. I must say it makes me look away everytime they roll next to me lol! I do love it though, I always get some subi, evo, ect. rolling by to check out my car and give me thumbs up.

I probably wont be going to meets since I am so over it lol 22 year old with a lot of **** to do supporting my car addictions lol! i have 4 cars so far. My Z, Audi s4, nissan hardbody, and 86 acura integra
Anything I should look out for in my z? Change before it goes bad? Not **** with?

I'm in agreement with Maximan here, maybe that's why you're getting grief from the Honda's, its a bit LOOK AT MY F<>@ing SPOILER. To each their own, but I'd want something a little more unobtrusive.

Looks pretty good. I don't know how I feel on the SBC wing, I'd have to see more pictures or see it in person.

Hopefully the previous owner did you right and those are real TEs on there, but I kinda doubt it. You have a real gem no matter what, but Volks would up the respekk level in my opinion.

Welcome to the boards, and I'm jelly of the Nismo, even if it is black!
