MyZ32TT's 2008 Nismo #1066-New Owner
Hi guys my name is Sergio and I purchased MicVelo's nismo. It is a 2008 Magnetic Black with only 33k miles. I picked her up from San Jose on 4/2 and made the 6 hour drive down to Southern California. She rode very smooth and has the power to match the handling. As I made the trip down, various cars tried to race me; Ferrari California, Porsche Carrera Turbo, Ford Gt500, and other cars not worth mentioning but boy does this car attract attention (Good and bad). I came from an 04 DE, so this is night and day difference in my opinion. I was originally going to go with the Tomei titanium exhaust but now will just end up installing the Nismo S tune exhaust Mic threw with the sweet deal he gave me. After that I will be getting some Michelin Pilot super sports. My instagram is 08nismo if you wish to follow, as I got a feeling I will be buying parts for her in the next coming months. Now on to the pictures.

As another person who went from a DE (albeit a revup) to an HR nismo I was really impressed with the night and day difference. It's funny how you tell your self how happy you are with the DE until you own an HR.
Don't be surprised when people walk up to your car and knock on the glass to talk to you about it. I've had mine for 2 months now and that's happened 5 times already.

I need to put my old borla back on and i'm going to go for HFCs this time, then do the 3" intakes, bigger TBs, and the ported and matched upper and lower. Hoping to have it all in under a year with a tune.
Just had a buddy of mine get a tune with just berk HFCs and a gemini exhaust and hes putting down 296 on a 90Deg day. So im optimistic about 310-315. (fingers crossed)

I was considering an S tune. Although I don't think you will get as much gains with it, but after seeing that defuser sniped??? oh no. nonononono. Not gonna do it. What ever I do i'm going to keep the tips of the stock exhaust and weld them back on. They are very good looking.

Weird, I mean it was really close and I figured the plastic diffuser has rivets so I can order another one if needed.

I got the mod bug, this time it's really expensive compared to my DE 350z I owned before. Like I said I was going to take care of her and only upgrade parts using brand parts not eBay knockoffs. Csc/master cylinder/clutch are going out due to my driving lol but just an excuse to get my new clutch and flywheel in haha
Thanks I appreciate it, she's coming along as planned.
