Yeah the mod list looks pretty good. I think I'm down with all of those.
The real question I have is, how are people handling warranties w/those mods? Judging by what the dealer said in Brooklyn, I don't see how anyone can mod a damn thing and still retain a warranty.
I just reached out to Koepel Nissan, thanks.
I'm going to continue searching around, thanks.

/\ your fear about warrantee issues, while def a valid one, is something that really will/can vary from dealership to dealership. I've got no issues at my dealership in FL that I go to and I've cultivated a very "cozy" relationship with the GM, mechanic, even got to know the owner a bit etc.
Just to give you an idea as far as modding potential, I baseline dynoed stock at 296 whp. After installing the long tube headers and exhaust (no tune or anything else) and redynoed a month or two later and got 326 whp. So +30 whp with full exhaust mods from the block back and total cost for parts was around $2900ish. I've since added drop ins and a tune but haven't had a chance to go redyno at the same place I always go (like to use the same dyno so the comparos are more valid).
I think the 370z is a very fun car with decent potential for mods and won't break the bank doing them either. It gets decent gas mileage and looks great.
