Default My New White Roadster

New to Nissans and New to the Z. Not even remotely close of being new to modding and mechanics. ive owned about every type of vehicle there is to mod lol jeeps, camaros, trans ams, and a few others... I even have a Honda Ruckus lol... So basically this is what i know about my z its a stock 04 aside from an Injen cold air intake that reaches all the way out to the front of the radiator(in front of the grill) and some aftermarket exhaust. Headers are stock. Also has a Stillen spoiler. Has 793xx miles. Everything works perfect except for a few issues. 1. Im missing the seal that goes around the window on the convertible top. Both sides. 2. I feel weird things when i accelerate coming from the front wheels. Kind of like the rotor grinding or warped or something. Has anyone ever had this issue? Any opinions, pointers and tips would be great! Well here she is just had her waxed and a fresh oil change. Also heres the Ruckus lol

Welcome and congrats. Courtesy Nissan has been very competitve for oem products. As for your missing weather seals, I would try to source those from a salvage yard.

Thank you all for your warm welcomes, as of right now im pretty happy with my Z. At first I didnt like the wheels, but I guess theyve grown on me. Lol now I kinda dont really want to get rid of them. Im diggin the stock look. Also im trying hard to find those seals online. As a local upull wants like $150 for both sides(used and sun burnt). does anyone know of I am able to get these out of the stealeship? Thanks again everyone, happy to be part of the Z community!

Welcome and congrats.
Nice roadster, that Stillen wing compliments it nicely.
I'd do just as jhc and travlee said.
The v1 Touring wheels are my favorites next to the v1/v2 Track wheels, I'd only trade mine for a set of BBS RG-R's.
