My new Z

BoogerHead · 07-22-2013, 05:37 PM

Recently purchased a 2013 370Z. I'm not new to the Z family...I traded in my 2004 350Z that I bought...from my mom! LOL! However I am new to the upgrading my car area. I had the dealer install the Nismo exhaust system (I think its called a cat back)...I paid to have have my Stillen G3 intake installed and I recently put in JLC Lightings blue interior LEDs (did those myself! I can do lightbulbs!). So my point to this thread is I'm addicted to this modding my car already but my limited knowledge is costing me $$$ I could use on new parts. I'm looking for a car club that is patient with noobs like myself to teach me how to install parts and what kinda tools I should purchase. So if Ur in the Herndon VA area (Fairfax county) and you have any suggestions let me know! Thanks in advance!

Join MAZOC......and yes, enjoy your car modding journey. Do what you want to do and don't let others talk you out of what you really like. But then again, there are lots of great advice in this forum.

Welcome. Also, search around the forum and in the DIY section for installs. There are many good guides that explain to you how to your installations. I am a noob at that too but was able to do the installations by myself (besides tuning).

Hello local fellow! A regular socket ranch tool sets from sears will do you good.
