As the years come and go, this car still has my heart…it still feels good counting the years of owning the best sports car out there. I've enjoyed every moment of owning my car. Each time it was towed, each ticket I had to take off the windshield, and every time I had to explain to a cop why I was speeding (24). I really do love cars in general, but I feel that the Z car is a sports car with a soul for the ever dropping price it's alive every time you/I drive her. The exhaust note alone can put me to sleep or get up my heart rate up. If I had more money to blow she'd be faster, but too me she is fast enough. 158mph is relaxing in the Nismo, with your eye close you won't know the different between that and the speed limit. It's not even about the speed or going fast. It's the feeling you get from driving a Z car in a spirited manner. A Nismo Z makes it even better...it's a well put together feeling I really can't put it in words...so here's a shiet load of pictures to try an express that feeling of awe...

I've just finished re installing my LTH for the second time. It was easier in the sense I knew what I was doing. it was harder knowing I had to do it. Me...myself and no one else. What made it worse was the long periods of time in between the DIY job. little things got lost in translation..."which bolt goes where" maybe it's my lack of OCD? Either way through it all turning it on after a three month pause was relieving and heart racing at the same time.

for those starting to read this for the first time...if you have the time and tools and a little know how...research the job, youtube the videos, ask the local carclub members and take a swing at it! it's the most rewarding feeling!


Anyways...

Hours after purchasing her, and rolling her off the showroom floor at Advantage Nissan Bremerton, Washington for $45,499.00...

Attachment 447900

Early in the morning parking far away from folks...

Attachment 447901

Attention! of course she gets it...this is the parking complex on base bremerton naval ship yard and this is the sixth and final floor before open parking....

Why must you park next to me...literally noone is next to that green car, and a mercedes coupe was next to the mustang in the morning...an unspoken rule of one car space between sportscars on an EMPTY floor...

Attachment 447902

Two 350s that's all I have to say...A friends ride back in bumville Bremerton...

I took her to Canada to bring in 2008 no pictures of the crazy times I had up there, but I did race a 355 and had the cops stop me and chase him...

Before my tour on the John C. Stennis was over I got a DUI :icon27:...nothing happen to me it was eight days after I returned from a deployment (8 months)...I had a friend ship her home to georgia for me...nerve racking transition...

Attachment 447903

First day taking a look at her after restriction and a short deplyment to Cali...

my dad had a blast driving her, and replacing two rear tires for me...due to getting nails in them from the inductrial parking lot at his job. After a couple months in fayetteville I got orders to Hawaii. Shipping...always nerve racking.

Attachment 447904

+1001

LOL

very pretty Nismo and great thread :) Love the painted rays, wonder how they would look on a red one....make me curious ;p

Man this was way kool. Thanks for posting OP. By the way did they ever catch the Ferrari, pal?

As in you have 24 speeding tickets?! Street racing, drifting on the street, DUI...how do you still have a driver's license?

man that's excessive lol. maybe 24 above the speed limit?

sweet car btw Kingbaby

Nice Clean Nismo! Makes me want to trade mines in for 1. Love the OEM Look dropped!

Very sexy! Like a cougar.
Now go show those Haoles how to drive! lol

Sweet car :thumbup: in for more

45.5K! wow... i understand you got a new 07 in 07 but thats a lot of money.

updated MOAR pictures...


who you telling...I got raped on my buy....exactly one year later the car cost was around 29-32k....


I repeat I don't care...:icon17:...lot's has happen to me in life, I should write a book...doesn't mean I'm out here trying to kill myself or in danger others I'm just having a blast...most of my tickets are parking tickets...I have 1 DUI/8 speeding/15 parking violations i.e. parking sideways at the theaters/clubs/on base...

being military helps alot too...

again I don't wanna come off as a d!ck or idiot a$$hole I'm just like most of you guys reading this...

I still have my liscense and insurance is a car payment...:icon14:

the funny thing about drifting accident...no lie the cops was right behind me about four cars back so he didn't see me drop gears, and swirve to roll my wieght to do this hairpin slide...I manage to complete the turn just didn't bring it back soon enough curb one side causing me to ping pong between side walks...:icon43:....he came behind me telling me he seen the whole...and that the small puddle may have caused me to hydroplane....I was like 'yea yea officer that's exactly waht happen' 'hydroplane' :icon17:

insurance covered everything...no ticket...just a lost of confidence in my driving capablities...

man I don't even know...after they let me go I keep speed limit for about ten miles and still didn't see anything...

Canucks I tell you they know how to party...

wish I can project memories...cause this cat was moving


I wish more of you nismo owners would share your time with the car...

car looks good man

Rod, car looks great. Painted rims and drop really took your Z to another level. Can't wait to see what you got planned for her next.:thumbup:

Don't drink and drive




































You might spill your drink!!

LOL

lol....


this site helped me through that alot with moral support...

yes DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE...and more so brake check fools on the highway or free way...keep your head up people just don't care sometimes...

when ever someone is approaching me fast I get out the way even if it's slowly I move...

I don't commute but when I do I'm a nerveous wreck in my car...using hand signal/making eye contact with folks just tryna keep my baby from looking like the white nismo in the other thread...


thx...Jorge...I know your just itching to get your Z car back...

You have no idea lol:icon14:
