but I fell in love with my boy's Z while visiting him in Cali that I've been thinking of parting out and purchase a '14 Z (nismo or touring/nav/sport). I would probably wait until winter ends - no point in getting a new car w the amount of snow and cold weather we are supposed to get this winter.

I'm open to hear any suggestions as far as which model you all prefer and if it's worth spending the extra $ for the nismo edition, etc. I plan and doing some cosmetic and performance mods right away.

Glad to be here and hopefully I can say soon enough that I'm a proud owner of a Z.

Dom

welcome to forum great place for info about 370's.I own a nismo and i've been to Brooklyn a few times. a nismo in brooklyn wood beat you up very tight suspension.choice is yours but if you can test drive one.

Hi

Thanks Ken. I've been searching several dealers by me but none seem to have either options. As soon as I find one that its in stock - I'll go ahead and schedule a test drive. Thanks so much for the info.

What part of Brooklyn???

Bensonhurst to be exact. :hello:

I'm also in Bensonhurst, let me know if you need any help.

thanks dude!

:hello:

Same. I'm there every weekend. Hit up Joe Clem at Koeppel Nissan. He'll find you the exact car you want at a great price.

thanks man. my cousin works for DCH freehold nissan. If he doesnt come thru - I'll hit up Joe.

nice, I like the 2011 maxima, I've worked on them couple times. very smooth and luxurious

Thanks man it is a very nice car but unfortunately it lacks aftermarket support :(

I grew up in Canarsie/georgetown/mill basin area
 

A few exits away from you on the Belt Pky.

A long time ago, when there was much less traffic/cars/people, I used to drag race on Cross Bay Blvd.

nice. we should get a meet going and just chill... heard the Z community in BK is poor. :eek:

Z Community in Brooklyn is tight nit and underground. I own a Nismo. I roll with a Dude with a White Nismo (He's older not into forums or online stuff), A dude with an HR, a 300zx twin turbo, One dude got a 300zx with a rb swap.. And a dude with a G37 with an RBswap.. Prolly gonna twin turbo Mine Next year. Any Meets close by let me know.

Dude I'll definitely let you know if there is anything nearby. If you hear of any as well, let me know as well :)

A quick update... So my maxima is back to stock :( sadly enough I miss it - but better things are coming soon!

In the meantime, I've already started purchasing a few mods for the Z that I dont own yet haha... Decided that I'm going to go with the base/sport so I can get the best bang for the buck and truly make it my own.

Here is what I've purchased so far:

Kenwood DNX9990HD In Dash Radio, Sirius XM receiver and all the addt'l wiring to tap into the OEM backup camera.

I already have wheels for the Z as well. Bought my boy's Forgestar F14s in bronze. All I need is a set of coilovers and I should be good for a couple of weeks after I get the Z. Lots of more mods to come though! Cant wait!!!

WOO - I get to pick up my Z tomorrow morning!!

Which dealership did you end up going to?

I ended up going with DCH Freehold Nissan, I got a deal at 1000 under invoice thanks to my cousin who is a manager there.

I cant wait to see it in person haha i've been so anxious all week. When are we getting a few people together for a quick welcoming meet? ;)

awesome! glad you got a good deal.

I'm down for a meet whenever the snow and ice melts from my driveway lol.

haha hopefully soon! so sick of this weather... :roflpuke2:

Congrats Dom. Your cousin hooked you up!

Sorry joe hope no hard feelings!!
