Default I'm back!!

So glad to have another Z. Sold my old Z a few years ago and have been missing it since. Went through a 91 240 w/SR20DET, Ranger, 335i, Camry, and decided to get another Z

Old Z - 03 Touring
I think I have a mod list somewhere in this forum.



New Z - 07 Touring, 18k miles!, bone stock

Welcome back- which of the mid-model Z33 updates do you like the most (besides the HR)?

I love the headlights, always wanted to swap them out when I had my old Z. I just really hate the paint/material they used for some of the interior pieces. This stuff basically falls off...

I updated my '03 track model with the head and taillights, as well as the interior redesign. Specifically, what interior paint/material pieces have you been having trouble with? Mine are holding up well and I've never had anything fall off...

My apologies, I was referring to the 07 interior pieces. My 03 held up just fine.

No apologizes needed- I was also referring to the '07 interior parts I've swapped into my '03 Z. Which specific pieces have "fallen off"?

Mainly there are two pieces on the door, one right behind the door handle and the next is the arm rest portion where you can grab. It's made out of the rubbery matte texture. My 335i had the same problem. You would think manufactures would stop using this stuff...

Welcome back. Nice to see what kind of love this car gives to its owners where years later you get another one.

Saw you bought the LMGT4's. Now there will be at least two great-looking Z's in Florida, but mine is Carbon Silver. Here's a pic of mine to show how they'll look with the Brembo's:

Hey, not just 2 in Florida! I am also back after a long hiatus from the Z. Had a preordered 03 PPW Track...now this 05'.

Giving her her first bath tomorrow...the wheels definitely need some love.


Dipped matte dark grey...Carbon Silver originally.

Ha ha, I meant Z's with LMGT4's, but yours looks great with those Volks, too. Mine's also getting a wash tomorrow, after the Brazilian GP is over.

lol..i know. Just messing around. I miss my brembos. That's probably the next big thing I buy. Have a lot of interior cosmetic stuff to take care of first, though.
