About to hook up the 350z Nismo 2008 but needs recommendations and tips!!!
I bought my 350z Nismo last year, and I want to start hooking it up, but I don't know where to start. I was thinking of getting the following:
1. High Flow cats (I live in VA, Home is Virginia Beach, but I work in Northern VA right now), and I am not sure if this would be legal, and I don't know if I would be able to pass the car inspection. Does anyone have this and do you know if I could pass the car inspection, and would it mess up the Warranty?)
2. Plenum Spacer (would this mess up the warranty, and would you recommend?)
3. Unorthodox Crank Pulley (would you recommend this, and how much hp would this usually add on a 350z Nismo and would it mess up warranty?)
4. Shocks (I want to lower my car about 20mm lower, but knowing that the roads are pretty mess up, I might not get this.. How low would you guys recommend me getting?)
5. Catback Exhaust (I want to get a catback exhaust, but would you recommend me getting this or the High Flow cats, or both? Also, I really want to keep the Stock exhaust tips of the 350z Nismo, it looks really sweeeeet!)
6. Nismo Intake (would this mess up the warranty even though its Nismo?)
Other recommendations you guys give me would also help me out! Thank you!

Hey man, not sure what you want out of performance but if your wanting a little kick from stock I would get cai, exhaust kit,HFC's and a tune 
As far as lowering, yes it makes the car look even sexier and on the track nice, but as you know lots of parts in Virginia roads are not the best and that is why I am keeping the stock height. Just a personal opinion. I live in Newport News, VA! Who knows we may see each other one day Good luck on getting some things done to it and if you search some you will find just about all of your questions answered.

I bought my 350z Nismo last year, and I want to start hooking it up, but I don't know where to start. I was thinking of getting the following:
1. High Flow cats- Yes
2. Plenum Spacer -You can't be serious
3. Unorthodox Crank Pulley- Hell No
4. Shocks -Shocks no, coilovers yes
5. Catback Exhaust- yes
6. Nismo Intake- No, get Injen or stillen CAI's
Other recommendations you guys give me would also help me out! Thank you!

Just save your money.
Kick back with a bottle of wine.
Look around the forum.
Read different threads.
Learn from those threads.
Keep saving your money.
Once you think you have an idea on what to buy, sleep on it.
Think thoroughly about modding before you do it.
No offense bro, but read. We all start somewhere.
