Default New Z owner checking in/ First Post

After months and months of creeping around on the forums lol and researching..the opportunity finally came for me to pick up my Z. I actually ended up picking up a forum member's old ride (pwice). He was very helpful and informative throughout the whole process..And still is while I'm slowly making her mine. I've had it for about 3 months now and been loving every bit of it.. I'm looking forward to meeting some fellow members if you're in the Hampton Roads area..On to a few pics..

1st mod: pay it off.

If you already own it, I recommend sway bars after about 6 months or more so you have something to compare the change to. One of the best buys I've made for my Z.

Welcome to the forum and the Z world!

Welcome to the forum and the Z world!
Yea I agree, and that'll be done sooner than later.

And thanks for the advice, I've done some digging around on the topic of sway bars. Seems to be one of the popular first mods.

Don't let the mod bug get you before it's paid off. I waited 34 months of my loan to pay it off and I wish I'd have done it in less than 2!

This will also help get a baseline for how your Z is. I'd also look at the different bushings as I changed mine at 55k and there's no telling how much earlier it went out on me.
