How do you get 370Z, and a Nismo at that, as company vehicles? And if they aren't going to be modded, then what car is?
Yea , your info is just as helpful as Nexx's tidbit.. there is tons of stone turning to be done for me at least I jus like to know what needs to happen when the time comes

And I work for Nissan so I get a 1 year lease on any Nissan/Infiniti vehicles, besides teh GTR But the vehicle that is to be modded will be the 370 i will be buying next year, hopefully

Forced induction kit for Z isn't just simple put it on and go like other turbo cars. 370z will puts down much high numbers/low psi than 350z did.. Sure, 450whp is fast, i guarnteed you can walk away simple bolts-on/cams EVOs and STIs. But...if car pretty new, i will never think about put turbos on brand new N/A engine.

Ya, thats front camber. Now im saving for my coilovers..

I dont see how you get confused - thought you wanted something that came stock with a Turbo.. however an FD with a LS swap is what would make me change my mind..but i didnt think you wanted all that..

I know, just looking at FD forum it makes me keep looking at their cars and what people are saying over there, makes me think.." humm maybe..." lol i know FD isn't a car for me... it will not match with my life style and what i'm looking for " fun DD" But their timeless designed and powerful ST looks so yummy...lol

Good choice tho. What coilovers are you looking at it? I've heard good things about BC coilovers.

SPL ROCKS! (when it comes to their UCA arms)........those are soo sweet for anyone that daily's their car along with occasional track because:

(if you look at shim the person is holding in their hand) if you set the camber with the shims where you want it -- say within stock range for daily driving, then you can raise the car, remove the wheel, loosen the shims and add a shim, etc and get to the aggressive camber for the track.........and switch back when your done..

then of course they are awesome for the dedicated track dude, because you can corner ballance/set caster as well with them due to the rod end mount points to the chassis.

baller!!!
