Default #1271!! New one for the list.

Hey everyone, my name's Austin and I've been lurking around the Z forums for a little while and finally decided to make a thread for my Nismo. I bought her about 4 months ago and it was love at first sight.
I come from an '05 RSX type s, it was my baby for 7 years and we went through everything together, but as I got older the fwdness started to overpower everything else I loved about the car so I decided it was time to move on to something more grown up. I originally wanted to get an s14 kouki and still do as a project but I wasn't looking forward to putting the wrench to my DD all of the time.
That's what lead me to the Nismo 350z, I learned alot about them and fell in love instantly. I found one locally at a Hyundai dealership and used my RSX to bring the price down a little.
It's a great car and I look forward to getting behind the wheel every time and will do so for many years to come. Anyways, thanks for reading...here's some pics!

Here's my RSX

Thanks guys! Yea I have major plans for the future but right now I'm just enjoying how awesome this car already is. At the moment only things I've done are replaced the head unit, added a 330MM Personal suede steering wheel from my RSX and a hebi bebi replica shift ****. Definitely going for some basic bolt on stuff first considering it's got great suspension and brakes already.

Thanks guys! Paint looks better in the pics lol. Seems like the previous owner had no care for preserving it at all, I've got clear coat wearing off on the top of the wing and the front bumper is a little faded. But I got another black car, so I knew what I was getting into.
The damn number plate inside is scratched to hell also, must've worn a watch or something I really don't know. But after doing a little searching paying nearly 200 bucks for one and waiting a couple months doesn't seem like something I want to do.

nice. Also came from the rsx fam. Still prefer my rsx peeps and clubrsx forum. But the car is certainly an upgrade. Dont think I can ever go back to FWD.
