Just picked up a used 04 350z roadster. So far, this forum has a lot of good information. My car came with a nismo intake/exhaust but otherwise it's stock.
I Love the car!! My 05 SRT-10 ram was just totalled, and was looking for something completely diff(had a 04 STI before it). This car is way more rewarding than either of the previous two vehicles I have owned. It is nowhere near as fast, but it just drives so much better!

Now someone help me out and sell me some nice wheels!!! Tired of looking stock.

Thanks everyone
My SRT10 ram was flooded.....
SRT10 ram had
Headers, CAI, straight pipes, magnaflow exhaust, 150shot at one point(never used it so took it off and sold it), lowering kit. That's about it, I think.

STI was sold b/c I needed a truck and didn't want to drive around a vehicle I didn't like every day.

I had a 2004 STI as well before I bought my Z....I had so much crap on that subie, it was really hard to sell, but I needed a new car so I bought a 2006 Z as my next toy to fix up....I was pushing around 425hp to all the wheels, and that was on 16psi...The only thing stock on the car was the transmission, but it was a descent tranny, only had to replace it once....lol...luckily I knew the service manager at the Subaru dealership....so he got it covered under my warranty even though I voided the warranty about...hmmmm.....1 hour after I bought it...lol...didn't even break it in before I started modding her...


WELCOME!!!!

Default Sti

I was pushing 20psi on a GT30r(tried a godspeed GT35r kit, which was total crap), then went to a mostly custom kit based off another crap gruppe-s GT30r kit that I bought... I loved that car, ran great for a long time on the stock block. I sold it to some guy, and guess what.. a week later he blew the engine.. I rebuilt it for him, and had the hydra re-flashed(some update) When I gave it back to him I told him to get it tuned b/c the map was prob. way off.... Guy lets his brother drive it without a tune, and I'm sure he cracked another ring-land. I gave up after that.. spent enough of my time doing the first rebuild for free.
My somewhat stock STI

I actually have a set of my friends SSR's here at the shop(black center section). I was thinking about fitting them up to see if they look nice(look gorgeous on his G35 coupe). I already told him if he left them here any longer they may just dissapear
what finish are yours? Any idea how much you are looking to get(PM me)
Thanks
Chris
