New guy, moving from an S4 to 370z?

mr_sk · 08-07-2011, 08:12 PM

HAHAHA GOT IT!!! WATTTT!!!!! Will post pictures this week/weekend! Awesome, love it. bought with like 50 miles on it, 5yr/75K warranty, stoked! Got a decent price on it too, lots of back and forth.

Goodbye S4, miss you...but not really. heh.

Some nasty blind spots for the driver side left, heh. Car gets lots of looks, I don't really like to be flashy, so something I'll have to get used too, especially when I start tuning, probably only attract more attention.

Going to drive it for the next 6 months bone stock (besides maybe some snow tires/rims), and possibly a clear bra, or whatever people put on the front to help combat rock chips, etc.

After about 6 months (and winter is over), I'll do the first big tune, which gives me plenty of time to research (and set aside funds) for LTH, CB, Intake, ECU, dyno, tune, etc.

Ahhh thanks again for all the help guys - this forum is going to be seeing a lot of me over the lifetime of my Z...

Let the games begin!

PS: These f'n windows commercials where they break into your house to offer you a PC are so stupid. So, um, you have to break into a house, give them 20 PCs to look and give one for free to get people to use your OS ....

congrats man! Glad you decided to get her.

Clear bra and window tint, 1st two things I did (asap). Paint is soft so you def want to put something on there. (see sig)

as far as oil coolers. Couldn't be happier w/my Z1 34 row cooler w/thermostatic plate.

Right on, looking at the clear bra's now...doesn't seem like the thing I should install myself. Can you recommend an installer? (Edit: never-mind you're in FL, heh).

Cool, thanks for the link to the Z1 34R. I'll definitely consider that.

Regarding Vinny Ten and Performance: the rift between the two shops is huge, as is the drama. I know people that go to both, I have no problem with either. But, I personally know more people who were satisfied with Performance over VTR and so I decided to go there with my 370Z and been happy ever since.

Performance is also a more comfortable location, seats, tables, food, and internet if you need it. Most of us here go there and just hang out often times.

Interesting - that's a shame. I mean, it'd be cooler if there wasn't any drama...well, I found out about my dealer through Vinny Ten, they recommended Advantage Nissan, which I'm pretty happy with. So, I know they have a relationship.

I would obviously want to goto the tuner that has the best reputation and most satisfied clientele .. but at the same time since my dealer has a relation w/Vt...heh..not sure, will have to call both guys and feel em out.

Thanks for the info guys ...
