Hey everyone,

I grew up in AZ, and rebuilt a '78 CJ-7 with my dad through high school, but went to school in Boston and moved to the DC area now. My dad owned a 2004 350z throughout that time, but has since had back surgery and doesn't like driving the Z any more. Here comes the sweet part, him and I agreed to swap cars, so he can have a fun weekend car her doesn't have to squat into, and I get to have a reliable car out here!

Anyway, the short of it is that I am shipping the car to VA now. I've driven it before and loved it! That being said, it is a 10 year old car, so I'm looking into any improvements that can be made, etc!

Are there any major changes you guys made when you got yours? I've been looking into a Kenwood DDX470 to replace the stock (non-bose I believe) audio receiver. I'm not 100% certain on this, just something I'm considering as of now.

I did all the major fluid work when I was home for christmas, and the brakes are in good shape, so I'm covered on the maintainence I believe.

 

Welcome!
Need pics. Good luck with your new Z!

 

Any new Z owner that lists a audio mod as an area of first
importance does not get any interest from me.

 

Thanks for the warm welcome! As I said, I've been driving this car occationally for years, and my father wanted to keep it stock. One of the complaints I had was the lack of audio options while driving, and it's a very easy mod for me to do in my apartment parking garage -- I don't have a driveway to be doing any other major mods as of now. This is also why I was asking about any suggestions!

Happy driving, live and let live, no?

 

Thanks! I have a few of it on the trailer, I'll take a few when it gets to VA!

 

read the top 100 faq's and it will answer most of your questions and prevent getting poked at and flamed... congrats on car, you will like it. once the modding starts, it never stops so get ready

 

I've been reading through it now, really interesting stuff! I'm not looking to mod too much, I actually like the stock look quite a bit, but I'm sure i'll add a few things slowly but surely. Thanks!
