I know something about the Nismo wheels gets me and I would colour match them like my OEM 40th's are and I would still want run spacers for that extra flushness I love! So if I go the Nismo route probably just gotta change my spacer setup from 20/25 to 20/20 - IIRC

If I went the 5-split route I would obviously just try to buy the right fitment so I wouldn't need spacers.........

I am pretty sure I need spacers for my NISMO since she is dropped. they don't sit quite right.. lol

but man.. if you had a MB Z, what color would you PC some NISMO wheels

there is a big offset difference on the front when compared to sport 19's and nismo 19's. even though the nismos are ET41, they appear like ET32 if sport 19's (running 15mm).

so you might need to change the front spacers too if you dont want it poking out when looked at from the front.

anyway, im at stock height and the nismos are prefect fit with no spacers imo for base body style. :)

Do you know if he's running spacers w/ those? They look pretty agressive.

I've been looking at the R1 Concepts E-Line Cross-Drilled & Slotted Rotors. :)

These are zinc-coated to prevent rusting

I like those - I prefer to stick with slotted only to reduce the possibility of cracking - but those look good and seem to be very reasonably priced :tup:

In consideration that I'm not tracking my Z, I would imagine that I'd be ok.

:iagree:

I say those slots and holes are more for cosmetic when DD or street use.

Of cause, if you are tracking the Z, slotted or cross-drilled are useful. :tup:

I was sweating in the garage today :p

I decided that I don't care what Nissan recommends and after 31K miles I am replacing my in-cabin air filter that I purchased 15K miles ago :icon17:

What's that? You think I should have replaced it sooner? :roflpuke2:

EWWWW! I need to find out if I have one installed. Am I right in thinking they left the area for one but did not put one in the 09s?

Yes. I think Mr.kenchan did a DIY for cabin filter installation.


Ok, it wasn't Kenchan... This was the first link google gave me http://www.the370z.com/diy-section-d...lter-370z.html
