Welcome Jay, congrats on the new Z.
It depends on what you want to do with your car, you have many options.
~Track/Auto-X events: Upgrades would include oil cooler, brakes, etc.
~Style: Upgrades include wheels, exterior, etc.
~Power: Upgrades include exhaust, intake, forced induction, etc.

I would spend sometime in the Member's gallery and see what some people have done, we have seen everything from full race builds to show cars and in between. I would start out by thinking of what you want to enjoy more about your car or what you may not enjoy and wish to change and look into that first.

I understand the differences between style and power but what is "Track/Auto-x event"?

:pics:

Do you mean that "Track/Auto-X events" is meant for taking pics?

lmao no i was saying post pics of ur car. google track/auto-x . its racing... just not a straight line :ugh2:

ooo(i m such a noob) haha tat was my other thoughts but i didnt wanted to like nub... lol... i havent really taken any pix of the car yet... but i sure will... the color is black cherry... lol... idk if u ever seen it...

yeah ive seen a few. nice. hardtop or convertible?

its a hardtop... i personally hate convertibles... idk since i m a nub and all... but with convertibles... only thing i can see happenings are problems here and there... plus i m in fresno rite now... u must be outta ur god damn mind to have ur face blasted by the sun...

ps: fresno avgs 105ish... +1,2... never goes below... lol...

Yup Fresno is pretty damn hot in the summer, and I hate convertible too, especially when the z looks so good with it's hardtop. Congratulations on your new car

ty ty ty!!!
any suggestions on what to do with?

As other's have said it depends on what you want to do with the car and what your style is not to mention what you want to spend. In my opinioin i'd go for window tint, intake, high flow cats, exhaust, and wheels. There are many to choose from and members can get some good deals in the sponsor section. Just have a look around and give them a p.m....Injoy

Congratulations! :)

A sweet profile pic of your car! and i did start off by looking at 370z owners rides.

GRRRR!!! too be honest... i just recently went to vegas... hoping that i get my rims(1k), cop radar (450), and a nice wallet(450).... i was able get em all... or to be more specific... i can afford them all now... but now that i have very wide variety of selections... idk what to do!!!!

rims are not 1k unless there crap?

I agree..I have 20" Tork rims black on chrome and people say they're crap and they were worth $2600 w/ tires! WTF! they looks sweet IMO..but I'd love to get my hands on some matte black 19" TE37s!!!!!

dang...

so i cant get a decent lookin rims with like 1k?

Well I'm sure you can get some rims for 1k, usually imitations. If you got the sport package with your Z, remember then, you got 19's on your car. I personally would not get anything smaller than that, so for 1k...that's practically impossible. There are a lot of wheels/rim threads on here, so if you do a search you might find a set you like. I decided to go with some performance and a little bit of sound first, so I got HFC's (high flow cats).

Some ideas for you-
 

1. Clear Bra to protect that purdy paint
2. Window tint for that hot *** sun
3. 15mm front and 20mm rear H&R spacers for the wheels.
4. LED front marker bulbs, stealth front and rear turn signal bulbs.
5. Mild suspension drop (Tanabe, Tein, Eibach, etc...)

The stock Sport rims are very nice! They are forged and set the car off. I am a rim kinda guy and until I can save some serious $$$ I will just keep the Rays on. You spent at least 30K on a car, you can't go super cheap on rims. It's not a Honda :(

Good luck! :hello:
