Default First things to check/frequent problems 100k miles

Hey guys,

Well I've wanted a Z since I was 13 years old and 11 years later I finally got one. I am not interested in blowing the engine up with 700 hp or anything. I want to get it fully restored and sounding great before I touch anything like that. I am a mechanic of sorts but I've never had a Z, so call me ignorant.
Anyways bought a 2004 base 350z sitting at 110k miles. Just wondering what problems other users have run into around this mileage, didn't know the previous owners but they installed a pop intake and a HKS cat back which I'm not in love with. I want to make sure the car is free of deficiencies and routine problems before I move forward with replacing headers and exhaust and so forth.
Any suggestions are helpful, thanks guys have a good day.

Start looking at bushings.

Diff
Front LCA
Compression arm

That is the first thing to check.
