Default New Z

Hey Everyone,

Took me a little while, but finally got me a Z. After looking at some shots of the 370Z and seeing what's in the Nismo, I wanted the Nismo. I'm not power hungry. Wanted the performance.

Always wanted a 350Z. Bought a 06 Tacoma for practicality. Sold it (since I have too many trucks at home =P) and bought the Z. Figured if I'm going to buy a 08 Z, might as well get the Nismo over the Grand Touring.

It was the last white nismo on the lot, actually last white nismo in the state. I also haven't seen or heard of any nismos on my island either. Which is cool, but sometimes I don't enjoy being the only one. If you know what I mean.

Anyways, here's some pics.









Since the worry mode has set in, I decided to install the Viper 5900 alarm system and a Valentine 1. Seat covers are on its way.

Anyways, there's some really nice cars on here and the forum seems to have a lot of good info.

Alohas

No need. The wheels look great as is. All it needs is some spacers.

Thanks everyone

I'll take you guys up on that clear bra. I've been going back and forth on that idea for a bit.

Volks? That would be nice! But naw, really like the look of stock right now. Still gets me hard looking at em

TacoMadre, forgot to check on that...I'll get back to you.

you know what bro, I just noticed you were from Hawaii! I didn't realize it until I saw the Tony Nissan plates. Anyway, you're definitely not the only Nismo on the island; theres a small bunch of them already but none in the OahuZ club. Come check out our meets. You can find us in the Pacific forums: https://my350z.com/forum/pacific-34/ or on myspace http://www.myspace.com/oahuz. See you on the road!

I'm on the Big Island...forgot to mention. Hilo didn't have any Nismos on the lot. The salesman didn't even see one before I brought it down to show him. You know of any meets here? There's a few Z's here, just haven't seen Nismos.

NISMO looks great in white! I love the NISMO shark bumper. I think it flows better with the new hood bulge than the standard bumper.

It's mounted on the under side of the unpainted black plastic portion where it's held into place by two screws. It's basically a flat L bracket.
